A half measure

The ruling is good stuff, but the article says that the GARM entity folded - old news yet news to me. That’s an effect Musk aimed for, and got.

GARM (Global Alliance for Responsible Media) was a nonprofit purported to help businesses avoid having their brands advertised alongside bad content that may damage the brand. Bad Content Incorporated heard about it, and now GARM is no more.

I misread the headline’s “abuse” as a verb, and it felt equally feasible.

Andy Beshear is gonna wield the same thing in the presidential race.

Sounds a bit like the minting of a new Space Marine

A girlfriend recently said “I’ll give my man Luigi a DAY PASS,” tracing her figure with her hands. Cracked me up.

Nuclear fusion is only 9 more years away.

I enjoy that community as a non-participant. A user’s decision to merely interact can reveal much more than they intended to reveal - super interesting to me. Just the existence of the community pits dudes with insecurities against their own lack of self control or social tact, for all to see.

Future me might comment there too quickly after overlooking the community name. I’ll get a warranted Tsk and I’ll see myself out. No big deal. It’s not a kick in the nuts unless I make it one.

“Dishonest Harmony” is a term I’ve never heard but wow it is perfect.

I’m… lucky?.. that my dad was a shitbag for other reasons. He was already on thin ice prior to 2016. My mom “isn’t interested in politics” but even that’s feeling unforgivable for me nowadays.

My parents have gone from seeing their 2 grandchildren biweekly, to me limiting visits with their 3 grandchildren to 3-4 times a year. Even those times are intentionally with my dad absent, and are only at extended family gatherings.

Fuck. Them. Both.

I concur. I think it is telling that he didn’t choose to just stonewall the reporter with “No further comment.” He has a malevolent drive to push that narrative

I am sad that I am ok with a strong advocate for values I do not hold, ending up murdered.

Values are not universally valid.

The values held by this dead person were harming society by the theft and denial of human rights for others.

a kick in the balls to their balls

LOL

I wanna say Macho Man Randy Savage would have something poignant to say, but I don’t know what it’d be.

Look at that picture caption, Rubio is right there and the caption completely disregards him.
