Bigotry is merely a tool they’ve been using, and by no means the only one (like hypocrisy, disinformation, etc). Their end goal is and always has been the accumulation of wealth and power for themselves. And to keep what they’ve got or get more, they will sacrifice anyone and anything. Without hesitation or a even…

Big tech is generating a lot of wealth that is distributed unequally (wildly unequally, in fact), ie inequality. Inequality is toxic to a healthy, stable, civilized society and is, coupled with basic human nature, a positive feedback loop, creating more and more inequality by its very existence.

Yup. They’ll continue using the anti-union SOP disinformation and scare tactics to undermine the union vote, because ‘unions are bad.’

Of the 20 people arrested, 12 were registered as Democrats, and at least 13 are Black, according to the Times and Miami Herald.

That’s getting off too easy for a man so wicked. And for all we know, well, he’d get off on that, too. Because he’s clearly not of sound mind.

Inequality is its own feedback loop like that.

Saying stupid, hateful shit isn’t ‘controversial.’ It’s just being an asshole....

That’s part of natural entropy.

Well, for those ‘literalists’ out there — like those ‘originalists’ who argue that only the original, literal words of the constitution are binding — nobody is providing VIDEO TAPES, soooo, this ‘law’ isn’t applicable, right?? Not even with DVD rentals, because those aren’t video tapes either.

The pain would be my primary concern. Spinal injuries are no joke and, even in best-case scenarios, tend to result in life-long complications and routine pain-management medications that, frankly, border on narcotics. Hopefully, she won’t have that go as badly as some people have had with their pain-management…

At a 90% loss of the species, regular ol’ entropy of natural predation will take care of the rest. The odds of the species bouncing back — *WITHOUT* extraordinary intervention — is pretty slim. The time for “Colonel Sanders and his Amber Fly” is now. Not later.

Republicans: proudly selling nails for their nation’s coffin.

“But sadly, it’s also a reminder that we’ll never get to see what visual innovations El Arbi and Fallah had come up with for Warner Bros.’ now-cancelled Batgirl movie.”

I could see this as a good use for e-ink, because of its low power draw, near-indefinite display times, high visibility in daylight conditions, and so forth.

There are whole lot more Harvey Weinsteins in that world than you think then. Petty revenge is a pretty common thing, and that includes burying films (and careers) for ‘reasons.’

Because Starship development — the *LAUNCHING* part of the testing — got stonewalled by the EPA and FAA for nearly a YEAR. Starship would probably being doing cargo runs to the ISS by now if it weren’t for that delay. But hey, if you want to drown in your Haterade for Musk, whatever, just keep your moronic drivel to…

The problem with the First Amendment is that far too many people — usually and notably of a very specific type — believe it is a license to deliberately and often maliciously deceive without consequence. I *REALLY* hope this is a sea change in the way the law handles that problem, such that the kind people like Jones…

Because nothing about the reasons WB gave for dropping the film pass the sniff test. And frankly, the cynic in me says it has more to do with the ‘man in charge’ being a douchebag than the quality or potential of the film. Or did you think execs in Hollywood can’t be racist, sexist misogynists? The fact that they’re…

Republicans have never cared about the lies *THEY* tell. Only the ‘lies’ other people tell about things they don’t like or agree with. It’s foundational to one of the three pillars of their real doctrine: hypocrisy (the other two being greed and tyranny). They’d shoot their mothers in the face for the right price and…

I believe most of Taiwan repeated Zelensky’s response to Musk’s suggestion: “Go f*** yourself.” And honestly, yeah. Musk, go f*** yourself.
