post:
 Kanye is mentally ill. As the brother of my usually dear, sweet, loving, and intelligent (and woke!) sister with schizophrenia, do I believe mental illness excuses this kind of behavior? Yes. Yes, I do.

When my sister is psychotic, she says—or rather, screams—outrageous things. Racist things. Homophobic things. She once screamed at our mom, “DID YOU SLEEP WITH MY BOYFRIEND?” (She doesn’t have a boyfriend.) She became convinced that cats were sending her telepathic messages about a bomb placed under city hall by Muslim terrorists and even called the police about it. She thought my iPhone controlled my heart and warned me never to turn it off. And that’s just the beginning.

If you judge Kanye, you might as well judge the homeless person shouting delusions on the street—someone you’d likely ignore and feel sorry for. The only difference? Kanye is a billionaire with a platform, using Twitter for the same all-caps SCREAMING.

He is sick. Ignore it. Feel sorry for him. Move on.

comment: I meant in regards to Kanye and Elon. They both claim they're autistic and many are saying their dumb antics should be forgiven because of it. It's an excuse

comment: Doing a Nazi salute because "he's autistic" doesn't make it ok. And should not be ignored.

comment: Or "I love Hitler" and "Nazis are great" because "he has psychotic issues or is autistic" shouldn't be ignored. He has a big reach with his tweets. Fuck him.

comment: I’ve never heard Elon use it as an excuse. FUCK OFF

comment: Mostly his fans and he did also imply it occasionally. Why are you so aggressive all the time, mono darling?

comment: Also, I'm indifferent to Kanye as an artist. And again, bipolar disorder can make you have psychotic episodes.

comment: He even made an album titled "I hate being bipolar, its awesome".

comment: I wasn’t aggressive until you continued with your irrelevant ignorant diarrhea after being calmly told to go away you’re irrelevant

comment: If you're talking to me, I don't obey random internet people's demands to "go away", calm or otherwise. No one does XD

comment: Including NBQ00

comment: I think mono just misunderstood what I was saying. And went psychotic himself. Kanye may be bipolar, but that doesn't excuse his rants nor should we ignore it

comment: Okay. Replace the word "excuses" with the word "explains". Better?

comment: What ChatGPT is picking up on is the common marketing which conflates the co-pay cost with total cost. Nobody advertising $4k, but that’s what the true cost is.

comment: Lower prices are suspect. Canada has an export ban. Compounded semaglutide is not FDA-approved (Not something I would want to inject into my body).

comment: I think the person who wrote that article you linked just got confused about the difference between one pen and one dose. The pens actually contain four doses.

comment: And check the price of a pen anywhere and you'll see that it's around $1k. So yeah looks like the copywriter on that site screwed up...you had one job.

comment: If it cost $1k/week that would add up to around $50,000 a year just to pay for some weight loss pills lol. Do you really think people are paying that much?

topic_title: UFO of the day

post:
 On a misty evening in August 1990, two men hiking on the moors surrounding Calvine claimed to have seen a giant diamond-shaped aircraft flying above them. It apparently had no clear means of propulsion and left no smoke plume; it was silent and static, as if frozen in time. Terrified, they hit the ground and scrambled for cover behind a tree. Then a Harrier fighter jet roared into view, circling the diamond as if sizing it up for a scuffle. One of the men snapped a series of photographs just before the bizarre craft shot away vertically and disappeared.

 Got a MBP and got 3 months free trial of Apple TV so signed up.

One of the reasons I'd signed up for the trial was 'cos I'd been speaking to the kids about Bewitched show from when I was a kid and saw it was on AppleTV.

Signed up. Went to search for Bewitched and you have to PAY for the episodes!

Then I start searching round AppleTV, and looks like you got to pay for like 90% of it!

comment: Huh? If you subscribe EVERYTHING in the Apple TV catalog is included. Not sure what you’re doing.

comment: You’re referring to Apple selling content, just like everyone else does.

comment: Wondering if its 'cos it's a free trial?

comment: No, it’s because it’s not apples content, they are just selling it. They have a store, but that’s separate from Apple TV+ which you subscribed to.

 the rhetoric in play in the likes of this - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/artic… - is de facto not much different from US policy over the last seventy years, but to have it spelt out thusly ... cannot countenance continued submission.

Trump's regime, obviously, has no subtlety. It's just a shame there appear to be no safeguards to reign in such language from the rest of the administration.

If this continues, this is the end of America as we've known it, for better or worse. The question for her allies is - how much worse is this going to get?

It can't get much worse for her enemies, and isn't going to get better with her allies.

 Elon exposed the left's bureaucratic agenda: flood the border with people conditioned to embrace victimhood as social currency—justifying endless government spending, corruption, and eventual collapse. The endgame? A South Africa 2.0 or Venezuela 2.0—nations crippled by incompetence, corruption, and violence.

Just look at California. Once beautiful, now gutted from within. Billions siphoned, cities in decay, and a paradise turned to ruin.

Don't believe me?  They were even diverting funds from the North Carolinians Fema program to house undocumented immigrants in luxury hotels.  Keep the red necks in tents and house the illegals in 5 star hotels while they negotiate a kickback for their humanitarian work.

It's easy to justify corruption when you claim the moral high ground as a victim and take from the 'oppressor'.

comment: I'm sure there's a lot of waste and spending on stupid things in the US government. But every single program Elon Musk "discovered" was already publicly known

comment: The spending was voted on by Congress and all this info was already public. No actual fraud or criminality has been found so far except possibly DOGE itself.

comment: Also as far as these kinds of foreign influence and media programs go I'd be amazed if they never worked with the Venezuelan opposition.

comment: They're definitely not working with Chavez and Maduro. So just to be clear you're cheering on the opposition in Venezuela being defunded?

comment: hotroddy do you support cutting off funds for Venezuela? It looks like USAID spends $200 million a year on humanitarian aid and supporting pro-democratic groups

comment: yuekit, that money given to USAID was during the 2019 protests. It was syphoned and swindled by corrupt Venezuelan opposition politicians.

comment: youkit -Considering nothing resulted of it - it was a waste of $200 million. Why don't you see it as meddling with the external affairs of other countries?

comment: Another striking example of how the political parties have flipped.  10 years ago you would have accused the USA of 'regime change'

comment: Venezuela is a lost cause. It will never go back to what it was- a thriving economy with a considerably skilled middle class.

comment: No you're just buying into the sensationalistic version where all USAID did was meddling and propaganda.

comment: You're right that people on the far left also think that but that doesn't mean it's true :)In reality USAID provided 40% of global humanitarian aid.

html_comment:

In reality USAID provided 40% of global humanitarian aid.

comment: It's possible that cutting off this aid will kill millions of people...and even if you don't care about that it could destabilize countries all over the world,

comment: which the USA will then have to deal with. For instance cutting off aid will almost certainly increase the number of migrants fleeing their own countries.

comment: To report undocumented immigrants, please call the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at 1-866-DHS-2-ICE

comment: If you need a reason to abolish the Department of Education, just read Dystopian's posts—parroting memes and half-sentences is peak 8th-grade literacy.

 Played Cyberpunk 2077 on Stadia back when it was released and loved it.

With Stadia gone I finally got a ps5 a couple months ago and am playing it again with a different type of character, makes the story different enough which is great + I understand and enjoy the skills system much more this time around.

Just got to the Phantom Liberty DLC, holy cow, the feeling of scale and immersion is on a whole new level. I'm playing on a very wide projection which makes it all the more crazy.
Def worth revisiting if you haven't played PL yet.

comment: Awesome; JUST tried a trial on my Portal and it seems engaging and slick.

comment: Be sure to create multiple saves so you can experience both Songbird’s and Reed’s storylines.

comment: ^ oh... haven't met Reed yet but he's been mentioned, have been with Songbird a while. Too late ?

comment: Follow the story until you reach a pivotal choice: betray or side with Songbird. This decision splits the game into two distinct paths.

 Fucking Greeks

they figured out the size of the moon and distance from earth by observing the lunar eclipse.

since we know the size of the earth (They also figured that out by looking down a well :). )  it takes the moon 4 hours to completely cross the earth's shadow and it takes the moon 28 days to gat back to the same spot Therefore some quick maths = distance of the moon from earth, it's orbit and it's size. brilliant.

and yet in 2025 we have mouth breathers who still think the earth is flat,  and Jesus makes the moon and sun appear each day and dinosaur bones were planted by satan to test you.

what a time to be alive.
