As Vance 'lectures' Europe on free speech, it is good to be reminded that the United States ranks 55 (!) on the World Press Freedom Index.

The top 10 countries are ALL in Europe.

I’m not interested in living in a theocracy, thanks.

While I agree with the many who think the flag-flying fiasco should impel Alito to recuse himself from any case involving Trump, I'd now go a step farther and say he should resign from the Court. I doubt he will, but he should.

And I also want Biden picking any new SCOTUS justices should an opening arise. Not Trump.

And that’s why Saladin resents Alleluia just as much as he resents Gibreel, to him, this naive liberalism is as much to blame for the destruction of England as Gibreel’s muslim-first identity is.

I've been talking about how AI will directly lead to Idiocracy (2006) scenarios (like Brawndo has what plants crave, Charlie Chaplin leading the 3rd Reich, etc) for some time, but today's update to the "can you melt eggs?" saga is as clear an illustration of how as I think it's possible to ever have.

Quora's AI answers made up the melting point of eggs, and then Google picked it up and responded affirmatively that you can indeed melt eggs.

Then people wrote articles about how stupid it is that Google says eggs can melt. Then Google fixes the answer.

Then Google ingests an article about how stupid it is that Google says you can melt eggs, and suddenly Google starts answering affirmatively again that you can melt eggs, citing the article about how stupid Google is for thinking you can melt eggs.

It takes a very special type of dumbass, who’s exceedingly short of being a millionaire, to send “donations” to a self-proclaimed billionaire at the request of that “billionaire.”
