The motto is still in effect - it just means they want you to die

"In an age in which more and more people get their news from short videos, if you're in politics, the media or online it pays to focus on topics that are salacious, are easy to understand and allow you to offer self-confident opinions with no actual knowledge." DAVID BROOKS

Polymarket betting panel for “Will Iran close the Strait of Hormuz by…” with various dates, all trading at or above 97%

Which way western man?

People hate on the polymarket gambling charts but this is their actual competition - not journalism but vapid punditry

"Copwoy" feels like a slur

The past couple months, I’ve felt like I got on the last helicopter outside of Saigon

I mean, this is probably more tractable than some of the other mega projects they're considering.

WATCH: Psaki says farewell as press secretary in last briefing Psaki, whose last day on the job is Friday, has answered reporters' questions nearly every weekday of the almost 500 days that Biden has been in office.

Sure doesn't look like it.

It'll be a new "tradition" they invented just now and will stop doing under democratic administrations

That barrel has a family

It's the original "firebombing a Walmart"

Fun fact- the overwhelming majority of people executed by guillotine during the French Revolution and Reign of Terror were French peasants who were killed *en masse* as a result of political power-plays between factions of the Revolutionary Government.

Still plenty of time to take cover behind that wall instead of filming content. If it was just a little bit closer, that wall is the difference between living and getting shredded by debris

Going to be another night to remember how you don't hate the press nearly enough

I know they want to think they're a competitor to data driven analytics (which have their own problems) but really they're a competitor to David Brooks.

Maybe. But it's actually true. It's just that there's not necessarily any value to knowing the conventional wisdom. a polymarket chart is sort of an endstate distillation of the vapid content-free punditry that the press has favored in the past couple decades

Prediction markets are useful as aggregations of the current conventional wisdom. No more. No less.

and we'll deserve it too

We should never ever forget why they did it

1. They like Republicans & want them to win.

2. These are their friends in the chats & they only report on this stuff when they absolutely have to.

3. They don't actually see anything wrong with "slurs against Black and Jewish people" b/c they're marinating in X, the every slur platform

The DNC has no control over who runs for office.

Never forget that this what The Washington Post said when Noem was nominated.

I do wonder if this is something they might tweak for the anime. Might be a good excuse to bring back the Juju Strolls

And with today's #JJK episode, we now enter one of the funnier portions of the manga, that won't be apparent is happening for a while

from the right, absolutely. I'm mostly talking about the left-wing freakout though.

A good example would of how the right views religion as a transactional tool that only benefits them personally and imposes no obligations of any kind

Why is Talarico generating such a freakout about religion that Warnock never did?

I'll just wait for the clip. Not going to watch a parade of bootlicking cops kiss her ass.

I guess the appointee will have to sign a (unenforceable) pledge not to run. So it'll be a true open seat.

ABOUT N'KIYLA JASMINE THOMAS — Jasmine Thomas for Oklahoma N'Kiyla Jasmine Thomas is running for US Senate in the state of Oklahoma against MarkWayne Mullin. N'Kiyla believes in people over politics and community over corporations.

N'Kiyla Jasmine Thomas also seems pretty cool. Honestly, I was worried there'd only be a slate of weirdos and cranks for a long shot race. They all seem pretty level-headed.
