I feel like I missed this story... https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/person-sets-themself-fire-front-supreme-court-building-rcna25678?cid=sm_npd_nn_tw_ma Kinda shitty to not mention that he was protesting the lack of action on climate change.

Warning though, if you let the video play you'll see several Congressmen uttering some idiotic, prohibitionist bullshit. Jim Jordan says "they want to use taxpayer dollars to kickstart the marijuana industry." I don't know if that's true, but it's extremely tight if it is. Out of all the...

Yahweh is neither male nor female. In other words, the Christian God is non-binary. That sort of stuff has no place in Floriduh. Sorry, I don't make the rules. Idiots do.

I've heard that dissolving a special district requires a vote from the residents of that district. I've also heard that it doesn't matter because Disney never had their little "city council" vote to approve that stipulation back in the 60's. In either case, I'd think the legislature can...

:lol: https://www.autoevolution.com/news/tesla-model-y-is-summoned-in-air-fair-crashes-into-35-million-vision-jet-187098.html What's the difference between what Tesla is doing with "self driving" cars and what Theranos did with blood tests?

Desantis ending Disney World's autonomy in Floriduh isn't all bad news for The Mouse. https://www.wftv.com/news/local/end-reedy-creek-disney-wont-pay-more-taxes-you-will/3TK6ASNJT5EXHICW3DQ3ZHEZYA/ Disney will effectively get a $163 million dollar per year tax break, paid for by the residents...

I'm excited for Ghostbusters, but I don't think the marketing team fully thought this through. Kind of a drought with Quest games right now. An indie studio put together a really nice mech combat game though: I remember playing mech combat PC games in the late 90's. This genre works...

https://www.healthaffairs.org/doi/abs/10.1377/hlthaff.2021.01687?journalCode=hlthaff Unionized nursing homes across the US had 11% lower resident COVID-19 death rates and 7% lower worker infection rates than non-unionized nursing homes. The mechanism appears to be that unionized workers have...

Never played Mass Effect 2. Looks like I'll be finishing it over the weekend. This might be the best video game I've ever played. Pure enjoyment.

Felony charges? For hijinx? Give me a fuckin break.

This article has a pretty good explanation for why Republican politicians are largely against legalization. They're behind the times, but only slightly. If the graph 538 printed is accurate, legalization only got into positive territory with Republican voters in 2019/2020. Now it's +20 points...

Chicken and the egg though. Rich people won't invest while there's a federal sword of Damocles hanging over the entire industry's head. Too risky. Much better to stash your money in safer investment vehicles like shitty monkey jpegs.

Possibly. The Catholic Church is disgusting. They moved pedophile priests around the country like Sea World when orcas attacked trainers. But they're hardly the only church with an abuse problem. Evangelical preachers can get married and they touch little kids pretty regularly too...

https://www.wesh.com/article/desantis-stripping-disney-self-government-power/39761559 This is tough for me, because Disney is a shitbag corporation, though not for any of the reasons Desantis is crying about. Ronnie himself is sentient human feces, but he's right. Corporations shouldn't be...

Can we get some kind of warning on posts like this? I’m pretty sure content this gay is now banned in the Free State and I don’t want to run afoul of the Law.

Chris Smalls, the guy who founded an independent union and defeated Amazon, gives me more hope than any politician in America. Apparently he got in trouble from the blue checkmark smooth brains on Twitter for going on the Tucker Carlson show...

Jesus Christ. I didn't know that. Thanks for informing me before some zoomer jumps down my throat. I remember when 2020 rolled around (that was either yesterday or a century ago, can't tell) people were doing the "Top songs of the 10's". They were indistinguishable from 00's songs, or late...
