AnarchoAnarchist [none/use name]

I plan on leaving the top of the ticket blank.

Fortunately I live in a state where my presidential vote does not matter.

Someone on this site made the argument that at this point Trump is probably the harm reduction candidate, and Kamala Harris the accelerationist.

I don’t agree entirely, I think it’s safe to say that Donald Trump is very dangerous for marginalized communities within the United States. But it’s really sad when his policy on Ukraine is objectively better than the Democrats.

I feel like there are only two choices This election cycle. Do I want to go to war with Iran and Russia at the same time, or just go to war with Iran?

The article is saying that fact checks don’t help, when the candidates rule lawyer their way into turning a false statement into a fact.

By any objective measure Kamala Harris’s comment about no US troops being in a war zone is false. Fact checkers say its true, because a bunch of Adderall addled lanyards have redefined the key words in this statement to make it technically true.

By any objective measure, a fact checker should be taking Kamala to task for repeating propaganda about October 7th. But no one will.

I don’t think this article objects to candidates being factual, as much as it points out that what our media does is not actually checking facts.

You should demand your money back, lib.

Wife thinks it has too much breading, but Popeye’s FTW.

Can I be “anatomically impossible mouth”?

It’d be fun if he turned into another Ronald Reagan Jr.

Probably useful for an electrician tho

My favorite was a little magnet in your ring fingertip that let you “feel” magnetic fields.

I wouldn’t do it, but it sounded kinda nifty.

Idk, seems like the company he is most hands-off (SpaceX) is the most successful. There are articles about how SpaceX engineers “manage” him and keep him from fucking everything up, guardrails he lacks at Twitter and Tesla, to obvious effect.

China is definitely going to overtake soon. In a few years they’re going to have the only operational space station.

Don’t shit on talented workers because they have to work for an asshole.

We should nationalize SpaceX, make them part of NASA, and go back to just building our own goddamn rockets.

If these people can reuse a rocket three dozen times, landing it on a barge in the middle of the ocean, while trying to placate the world’s richest toddler, imagine what they could do with an actual budget, part of an actual agency with a mission to explore space instead of make musk more money.

Absolutely. But the engineers that worked on that project and the engineers that work on the falcon 9 both deserve our praise.

The workers at spacex have done some amazing things despite all the hurdles in their way.

Hot take alert:

SpaceX has accomplished some amazing things. There are some very brilliant engineers working at that company. The fact that they are routinely landing and reusing first stage boosters is absolutely extraordinary, Starship is one of the most impressive launchers that humanity has ever devised, In a century, when children are learning about space flight, SpaceX will be alongside the space shuttle and Soyuz as groundbreaking achievements in human spaceflight.

The fact that The engineers and technicians at SpaceX have accomplished so much, while being led (on paper) by a man as stupid as Musk, is a massive testament to their skill. I salute those workers who have accomplished so much despite all the hurdles that have been put in their way.

Remember what this article is about. After several dozen, if not hundreds, of successful launches and landings, one booster failed to make a successful landing on a barge in the middle of the ocean after successfully putting its payload in orbit. People who designed and built this system deserve to be proud of their accomplishment.

And we should be grateful, that while Musk is nominally CEO, He’s let competent people run this company for him. Because God knows if he were actually running things day to day the falcon 9 would look like the bazinga truck and would explode 3 ft off the ground.

(Of course, their environmental record is not good, their plan to fill low earth orbit with cheap satellites that deplete or ozone is questionable, there are plenty of legitimate criticisms to make about this company.)

If she did this I would vote for her.

I know I say genocide is a red line, but watching a presidential candidate piss his pants on live TV would be worth my vote.
