This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban in Afghanistan thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

Reminder that Nicki Minaj, born Onika Tanya Maraj, says she came here illegally at age five and is married to a convicted sex offender.
But MAGA wants to lose its fucking mind over Ilhan Omar’s name.

and this is why I'll never GAF about "men's loneliness". It's just another idea used to blame women for men's shortcomings

"Gender war"
Women don't make rape games,podcasts about hating men and objectifying them. No group chats teaching how to assault family members. Women never banned men of their rights,voting or studying, built religions to cage them, never flooded media with men as sex props.

There are strong claims that ICE has been detaining an American citizen who was born in Florida. Phillip James, 39, has been detained for at least 10 months. He's currently in Indiana facing deportation to Jamaica.
Public records, court documents (including a 1988 paternity case), his mother's testimony, and a valid US passport held for 15 years confirm that he was born in Florida and is an American citizen.
Medical experts who evaluated him said that he suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and that his claims of being born in Jamaica (along with other claims like being foreign royalty) are psychiatric delusions.
Nevertheless, DHS denies his citizenship and initiated deportation proceedings based on his own delusional statements, with no external evidence indicating he was born in Jamaica or holds Jamaican citizenship.
To reiterate: his direct family, official US documents, AND the medical experts who evaluated him are all saying that Phillip James is a Florida-born man who is suffering from schizophrenic delusions... but DHS disagrees.

Behind closed doors these AI companies are all perfectly aware that their models are built by stealing from creatives to transfer wealth to a centralized few at the top.
AI is theft and they know it. The stealing was always the point to enrich a chosen few and that's it.
As Anthropic prepares to IPO for over $1 trillion, a reminder of Dario Amodei’s words shortly after founding the company:
“Distributed human labor is being used to train AI models by large, centralized actors, who concentrate the resulting profits while in the long run making the human labor obsolete.”
In other words, this IPO will be built off the backs of the world’s creatives - who will get nothing out of it except obsolescence.
It is a totally unjust transfer of wealth and opportunity from artists, writers, musicians & other creatives to a tiny tech elite.
I hope it is remembered as such.
(this quote is from a document he wrote that was unsealed in Bartz v. Anthropic)

I don’t agree with Nicki Minaj or how she’s being used by the Trump admin to attempt to sway black women voters, but once again MAGA has reduced a woman to nothing more than “look at her ass” during one of the most consequential elections in American History. We are not okay.

Imagine being a CEO of an US energy company and thinking that you work with close associates of the Trump family, only to find out that behind them is a sanctioned Russian company, really pulling the strings.
This happened in Alaska. Polar Train LNG's CEO, Joel Riddle, stepped down after finding out that the Russian "Novatek" company, which is under US sanctions, has been involved in a $25 billion energy project in Alaska. The CEO thought that he was working with Gentry Beach, a close friend of Donald Trump Junior.
Reportedly, that project was also discussed between Witkoff and Jared Kushner when they were with Putin. The White House admitted that the project was talked about "briefly".
We are witnessing the greatest corruption scandal the USA has ever witnessed. It all leads to Trump, his family and the Russians, and apparently they were even ready to sell riches of Alaska to the Russians.
The people in Alaska just need to look over to Russia, where the richest regions in terms of minerals and hydrocarbon resources have been stripped-mined, transferring all the wealth to Moscow and Saint Petersburg and leaving a scarred landscape in extreme poverty. That is the result of rampant corruption.
We are starting to see more details why Trump and his friends are trying so strongly to bully Ukraine into surrender. This is most certainly only the tip of the iceberg.
Before I was a goth, I was a Phan of the 2004 version of Phantom of the Opera.
I've been meaning to do a version of Christine's "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" look for ages, and #Gothoween seems like a good reason.
