i think the door bell thing is probably more real than the paper which has genuinely never happened but its all insane fear mongering about crime thats basically never been lower
its extremely weird how ive only seen like 3 people talk about the build up
"prospective thieves will ring door bells to see who doesnt respond to find what house to target" is a thing that has probably happened sometimes, but is extremely common in paranoia enducing short form true crime "PSAs"

My dad grew up in bumfuck nowhere in the 50s and they got the daily paper from the nearest 3 major cities, each a couple hundred miles away, every morning by train
Hard for Americans to imagine this now: it was once completely normal to take the train from a town with a population under 1000 to any of several major cities for a week's visit with relatives. Salesmen hauled trunks of fancy goods, whole circuses traveled, and laborers moved to job sites by rail.
the parkinsons speculation started before the debate and id say thats a bit more than just generic "dont you think he looks old"
Cultivate within yourself the utmost possible contempt for the far right and only then will their behavior become comprehensible and predictable to you. They’re animals masquerading as people

she definitely deserves the credit for trawling through this, and i think youre right but i also hope i dont have to see any more posts containing "+4SD g"
i clicked through based on your recommendation without reading her summary and i was not prepared for the 3rd sentence of the first post
Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first? (Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here)
Bruh I assumed the Babylon Bee would do a cringe parody with a fake name like Kommunismo Ahomosexuél Geñder like they usually do but they’re just straight up textbook libeling KAG under his real name and photo, holy shit.
If anything here is a major infringement on personal liberty it’s the “forced to attend a government institution for 12 years” not that you also can’t have your phone there Nonetheless mandatory public education is good
youre right, but i think calling setting 75% of units in a huge amount of the country to a maximum of 29$/mo rent has problems far far before you get to the inefficiency of any non-tax based scheme
Liberals don't understand the role of influencers, which is MOSTLY NOT to incept ideas into the public consciousness. It's to make the liberal/Democratic viewpoint on existing subjects and topics look like the smart one.
If you're wondering who Harp is, it's been pointed out by @johnridge.bsky.social that he is definitely probably on Russian payroll...who is now being given an HBO deal
The real radical take is that where I’m truly alone (except for the friend of the author of that cookie recipe) is that chocolate is not good in any form

this is just a random spot west of phoenix 2007 and now, definitely possible to look for a more extreme example, this is what water conservation looks like A fact basically no one believes unless theyve seen the numbers and i really cant get over the fully surrounded fields still hanging on
The Arizona water stat is some what from efficiency gains, but it’s mostly just that Phoenix has exploded with people, and every alfalfa and cotton field you replace with 150 apartments and a subdivision of sfh saves hundreds of acre feet a year
Its amazing how many fields there still are right at the edge of suburban Phoenix The drought and climate change generally complicates how much water conservation is needed but Arizona is using less water than in the 50s and far less than the peak in the 80s
The perfect Dem messaging campaign couldn’t do one-tenth as much damage to Trump as a TikTok meme where thousands of people gleefully scoured every aspect of the admin for signs of current or impending deadness. People scouring Biden videos for signs of senility is literally what elected Trump
most of his other posts are just RTs of right wing commentary guys / graphics his people made / random "i talked to X person and things are going great"
hes been posting at semi regular frequency this whole time, last one like 5 hours ago now, about the court ruling against him on tariffs but it feels very not his voice, and the thank you for you attention has a period not an exclamation mark which i cant find him doing before
I looked and i couldnt find any posts with a period after "thank you for your attention to this matter" its always an exclamation mark
"Seriously ill" feels like it really complicates this, does it say how thats defined?

what did they mean by this
I think it is too, but if I wanted to be optimistic it also fits with “let’s put on his favorite things and hope he hears us in there”
This fits with the convalescing from significant surgery idea though

hasnt been seen since wednesday, no events on the calendar, for some reason we havent seen any evidence other than a statement from the press office that he fired the CDC director after it being obvious rfk cant do it
i doubt it, most of the domestic policy is being carried out by the viziers anyways, his much more competent cabinet didnt do it between j6-20 (though milley/pence/pelosi being in charge already probably influenced that) the only reason to do it is someone wants to specifically give vance power
into grok*
he also famously pre-wrote and signed a resignation letter in 2001 to be kept in storage incase he became incapacitated but not dead because theres no formal way to deal with that situation made up was a bit strong, but its something he pushed for and thought about a lot
cheney got mildly obsessed with it in 81 after reagan got shot and haig claimed he was in charge I cant find it now, but i swear i read something about him writing a whole thing about the 25th amendment either when he was in the HW admin or early 2001
for reagan he very specifically didnt mention the 25th amendment in the letter even though he was defacto doing it
he doesnt have to, thats just a thing dick cheney made up and everyone has done since because it does kind of make sense
i dont even understand the conceptional opposition to this tbh, democrats funding pro democrat media is just a good idea the specific implementation could be bad, who they fund, what the requirements are for the funding, but why would you oppose it completely
I’m really sick of the courts finding this administration broke the law in some unprecedented way, but they get to keep doing illegal things for a few months as a little treat. They’re defaulting to rewarding lawbreaking.

Do we have more or less political capital today after biden signed the first new federal gun control bill in ~30 years in 2022
Is there any country on earth where a total ban on cars wouldnt be considered illiberal?
There are millions of instances of a guy parking the f150 he doesn’t need in his office parking lot next to his coworkers Honda civic Does the f150 owner have less agency than the civic owner? why shouldn’t I blame the f150 owner for being in largely the same landscape and choosing worse
Yes Even though the obviously correct move by republicans is to not shut down and ignore the Carter era interpretation of a funding lapse. If that happens they should cave because destroying that is a good thing, and the optics of trying to force a shutdown after it become way worse
So are you planning to grab a gun or what, because some hospitals have to close we dont get to choose that anymore Luckily the modal ideology of rural americans is fascism
would it be better if it was urban people who mostly voted against dying first
Similarly just being a less religious society wouldn’t make bigots suddenly better, but it would make it so people don’t argue we have to tolerate their bigotry because it’s “their sincere religious belief”
I think the amount of philanthropy truly driven by religion is small, absent religion most philanthropists would have secular motivations to do similar work
There’s plenty of billionaires who’ve carried out evil specifically because of their religion
it is a real problem that none of the people who interview these guys are equipped to ask a question like, “what gives this president greater legitimacy than a law passed by a democratically-elected legislature, signed by a previous president and affirmed by subsequent legislatures and presidents?”
might just be a total coincidence and just genuine procedural stuff, but also feels like it could be sparked by some guys we hired slipping through
I wonder if this is related to why nuuk's airport shutting down international flights yesterday, and continuing through at least saturday because “the supplementary training of staff responsible for screening international travelers does not fully meet current requirements"
Feel free to share all the evidence of societies with no policing that didnt dissolve into blood fueds or increased violence
I think that there would probably be more violence overall if instead of having cops that can round up the simplest of murder cases where everyone knows both the victim and assailant we resolved those by cycles of violent blood feuds
theres ~18k cops in michigan, so probably like 2000 not that this is in any way relevant to you saying specifically it would be a good idea to have 0 police in Michigan
We should take away some money and weapons from the police is a dramatically different proposal than "we should have no police in the state of michigan" notably in that one of them is a good idea and the other is a brain damaged take
The fact that everyone has engaged in some level of sport and social group politics gives you enough experience to get overconfident about how well it would translate to competitive sport and electoral politics
No, but that doesnt mean solving murders is bad
“How am I supposed to explain to my kids that some kids have two moms??? Anyway, this is fine.”
When we finally do institute universal healthcare the median american voter is going to punish democrats for it a decade, despite it being a massive benefit to almost everyone not in the 43% already covered by government healthcare
"no one gives a fuck about medicaid" 23% of the country was on medicaid in 2024 The idea that people voted for the anti-medicare/medicaid party because the democrats only expanded those programs but didnt universal is more insane than just thinking it would somehow be a panacea
Democrats did a massive medicaid expansion and were rewarded by the american people with losing 6 senate seats and 63 house seats we should have universal healthcare because its a good idea, but the idea that its an electoral panacea is nonsense

I saw people speculating that they were just lying about the training cost to cover up how many illegal H100s they had when deepseek released I forgot about it until now, but is there any reason to think thats true or has it been disproven by other people getting the same training performance
Are you unaware of the present situation? urban and rural hospitals are facing a funding crisis after the new federal budget. There are finite funds available to save them We must choose between urban and rural hospitals, or cutting some 3rd service, there is no option where we get everything
i wouldnt mind an autocracy with me in charge tbh, but i keep myself grounded by knowing that 1. its not going to happen so i practical democratic solutions matter 2. if it did happen i would be Ceaușescu'd after mandating paid parking and speed bumps on residential streets
How does that get more money into the coffers of the Michigan government in 2026?
Yarvin is practically a llm tasked with envisioning the worst society imaginable. a slave state ruled by evangelical coal barons commanding robot soldiers. qatar without the prosperity for the in-group. and this has engendered praise and interest from both elite liberals and conservatives somehow
Everyone who voted for republicans in the 2024 election, project 2025 was clear about having huge cuts
rural whites are too irredeemably racist to choose sanderism over trumpism and it would not even be close. we’re talking a margin which would be indicative of vote rigging if we didn’t have priors that made this outcome explainable
No this is the same topic, Leonids point is we shouldn’t reallocate the limited money we have to bail out those hospitals If you disagree be specific what you want to cut to fund that bailout
An urban hospital basically definitionally serves more people than a rural one. Maximizing the care per dollar means basically always allocating to urban areas first
Do you not believe Michigan government has limited resources or do you just believe in always taking from urban people to give to smol bean rurals
So what are you suggesting be cut in Michigan instead, there’s a limited amount of funding to go around
Why would anyone with even a slight predilection for republicans not always vote for them then? They get to do all the evil things they want to the urban poor, minorities and immigrants and then saved from the consequences by democrats it’s just a win win for that kind of person
What program should we cut to fund the rural hospital
What service do you want to cut instead? Michigans government has a finite amount of money to go around
Every single person responding with spitting anger to this thread vowing to put liberals in camps or whatever is advocating something vastly crueller than "don't impoverish ourselves to bail out people who voted to close down their own fucking hospitals"
The whole military needs to be purged of everyone who signed off on, just, all of this. Walking beat patrols, acting as staging for ICE. It's all constructively law enforcement activity, even if it doesn't meet an ultra-literal, textualist pervert's definition of law enforcement.
This is a funny tweet because she's actually right, this the story of Berkeley. An Americanized Chinese food restaurant that appealed to WASPs happily sold out after the owners reached their elderly age and the new business serves the booming Asian population downtown. And the WASPs think its bad
this doesnt matter in the way a governor or police department does, but im regularly baffled by the fact that wingstop launched a podcast and got 50 subscribers with a most viewed video under 600 views
Remember when I told Virginia Foxx the truth about pro-lifers not really being pro-life? She got all offended. Is she that angry about the two children that were shot to death in their classroom today? Will she do something about it? You know the answer.
The simple truth is that children in the poorest places on earth died from lack of food and medicine because the richest country on the planet voted to shred their own Constitution due to annoyance over the prices of their chicken nuggie delivery services.
pissing away global financial surveillance and sigint systems because trump wants a neatly painted map
You personally should consume more propaganda
the shoe bomber killed 0 people but weve had to take our shoes off for 24 years now because it was done by a muslim 3 years after the IRS was targeted in the plane attack for auditing a conservative the entire RW ecosystem and congressmen attacked the IRS for audit practices, he won!
