What’s sad is that this is a consequence not just of this admins shittiness but of a long enshittification of our government.

Not only do government jobs pay a mediocre salary until you get really really far in the org, a fact that only gets worse as the idea of a middle class lifestyle gets gutted, but for decades now, working a government job has become less and less prestigious. It used to be that there were always plenty of loonies who found pride in being a “public servant” and thought the best place to use their genius was in government.

Now, as we see, there’s no one in these positions with even cursory knowledge of how these programs work.

And there’s definitely no millennials or zoomers fresh out of tech school that would debase themselves to working in government who would be able see these flaws in two seconds.

The time has come… For two sternly worded letters!

Because in real life they would have to have a walkie talkie moth on the moon and that takes too long duh.

Fun fact: moths don’t actually fly towards flames/lights. They have an instinct to orient their backs towards the light, presumably so that they can fly parallel to the moon at night which keeps them parallel to the ground.

They don’t fly into lights intentionally, instead they keep re-orienting their back to it in a tighter and tighter spiral until they hit it.

They literally hire people just to make up these scenarios to hire more people to make up contingency plans for them. I feel like once a year an article comes out that’s like “the US has a contingency plan in case Sweden falls to communism and arms itself with nuclear weapons” and it’s like: yeah, ok.

What they don’t mention here is that these guys get up at 6:00 AM, have lunch at 7 and leave at 8

Unfortunately, Elon Musk almost certainly wrote this tweet not knowing or being too high to realize that it was slander (or libel?) and if anything happens it will probably be Elon getting roasted in court.

Still cool to have Elon get humiliated but Trump is the one who deserves justice handed to him for his ties to Epstein.

Does it stay up? Yes.

Can you sleep in it? Technically

Does it have running electricity and water? (Optional anyway)

Another big win for vibe coders. Pack it up, we’re taking the W home.

And how do you prove that you’ve signed the liability waivers?

2025 homophobia: Prith

It’s a catch 22. Nobody wants the cum of the celebrities that would do it and no celebrity who people want the cum from would do it.

That’s the point of this post. That’s fun for me too. But if you’re living with someone, you’ve found out what their opinion on free will and almost every other deep conversation you could have with them in the first few years. How will it look 15 years later? Either you rehash the same conversation about free will multiple times a day or you wander around the same house in abject silence for months until one of you can think of a good continuation of that 20 year long “what is the meaning of life?” conversation you’ve been having. Instead just learn to small talk, life is long and it’s nice to have the affirmation that a loved one still pays attention to and cares about your day to day.

Hot take: but this is going to suck. The tariffs were guaranteed to tank the economy and would be someone that no one who supported trump could staunchly defend. Now we’re going to get a decade of fascists saying “but the tariffs we wanted were never actually instituted so we’ll never know how good they would have been. That’s why I want to do this worse thing.”

Like, I understand that the liberation day tariffs were about to send the US into depression mode and I still kind of think them being blocked is a net good just cause of how bad we would have been fucked.

But God damn it’s going to be exhausting.

oh no the ancient sacred forest has been corrupted. By capitalism

Could also be that he knows his audience are self-obsessed weirdos and perhaps the books try to gently explain to the reader that they are in fact the problem in most of these situations.

“It happens on both sides! you don’t condemn it on your side, isnt that hypocritical?!”

“I… Actually condemn everyone doing it and I think me and you should look for and support people who don’t support this heinous thing.”

“…”

“So, do you condemn the people on your side doing it as wel-”

“But look at this person who has done it on your side!”
