I remember saying years ago that the pivot BAP made to being Aesthetics first would likely carry the day, as it's at least not boring bullshit Karens teaching the next generation are into.

Great to hear.

Sounds about like how things went with our Kabinetskriegs post 9/11. That will change when they get to find out like every generation does that war is a racket.

They'd need to ramp up production 30x to actually fulfill on the ground needs, so I suppose it's back to "guns and butter" lunacy.

BONUS: As expected, the rat line to smuggle shipments falling off the back of trucks to NATO's terrorist buddies around the world is fully operational.

Getting things right is hard enough. The minute we try to do anything else in this job, the wheels come off. Until we get back to the basics, we don’t deserve to be trusted. And we won’t be.

Ding Ding Ding. Everywhere I work this is the truth. Do the job right, and keep your damn opinion to yourself. If people want to know how you think, make them do the stalker shit all girls do to guys they're interested in.

BONUS: He got the scoop from Elon RE shenanigans at twitter dot com. Sounds about like I expected, acephalous corporate doing what it does best

In the wake of the return of Netanyoohoo and the annexation of the west bank, it sounds like they are getting serious about settling it by force.

ActivityPub remains an excessively chatty protocol, and they layer on retarded levels of server side caching atop that. Idea: do all this crap in JS, so that at least you only get a request for content when people actually view it.

A guy comes to the same conclusions as much of the right has, but from a fresh direction out of the left. It is worth noting that this professionalization of the political class and its attendant complexity is straight out of Tainter's "Collapse of Complex Societies". People overcomplicating their lives on even a personal level almost always is the cause of relationships to collapse; it is the same with polities.

His whole substack is worth reading. It's enormously promising to see a progressive realize what we've been saying ever since they took us off gold and BTK'd us in red tape. Capitalism didn't fail, it was murdered!

Great old story from TI.

Hey, when it comes to scamming uncle sucker nobody else comes close! An integral nationalist Jewish Slav frankenstate doesn't have to make much sense, just like a colonial apartheid state of the same in the Levant doesn't have to either.

UPDATE: Thierry has a great piece on the history of the Ukie Integral Nationalist movement. Worth particularly noting their tight integration with GLADIO and the crazies in the basement. This means the bureaucracy at state will never, ever give up on them.

Rumors of the demise of the parasite class are always exaggerated. They only get larger until they kill the host. This is but a temporary setback; they'll soon find a way to be commissars again.

Gleichschaltung. But this time it's emerging naturally, because that's what gets the most engagement. Turns out exploiting the demonically oppressed is one hell of a cash cow, and has taken on such a life of its own as to be in the drivers' seat.

It's the same with all the content mills. Consent factory. Whole thing coordinated by the DHS.

Glad to see all the parties involved could look past their conflicting claims and do what's best for their economy and people.

He's quite astute to see the real aim of Washington is the dissolution of Russia. These days I put it to most people as "UMM SWEETIE ITS TRANSAMUR..."

Sounds like they came over for a friendly visit and he gave the wrong answer.

Which of course also means the users can be pinpoint targeted whenever the NSA insists they tap in, if they haven't already.

The Civil Rights act is what foisted this public-private partnershit of corporate coercion everywhere upon us. The feckless Rethuglicans won't touch it.

Fraud remains the fundamentals

Means ASML can't do business in China. Won't work, most of the Photolith expertise they acquired was leakage from Taiwan anyways.

OPEC has 'em by the short and curlies, and knows it. It'll be interesting to see if this actually results in a diplomatic realignment of the Arabs. I would expect retaliatory CIA chicanery to be not long behind if so.

Maybe if you didn't classify the bejeezus out of everything and scream STRENG GEHEIM until anyone with an IQ above room temperature refuses employment with you, nukes wouldn't have to be reverse-engineered from first principles every generation

Killing processor fees will be a great boon to the economy. I suppose it will help the bottom line of JPM's portfolio more than it hurts their own fee income.

Sounds like they want all their lines fully staffed so they can actually push all the way to the Dneipr. The question from here is how will the west now escalate?

Regulatory hasn't changed it's tune since FDR's day. Keep it all in the ground so we are supreme on some theoretical day which will never come that we are the last ones holding everything.
