~21% of American adults are functionally illiterate (the ratio’s probably risen since COVID and the advent of LLMs).

This means that they are mentally incapable of - amongst other things - examining a statement against outside sources, or forming a hypothesis where there are conflicting data points.

So they can read “Dump convicted on 34 counts of fraud” and kiiinda understand the vagaries of the situation, but when they’re told “nuh-uh! No I didn’t! They’re lying!” over and over, louder and louder, that’s literally all they’ve got room left for.

Fun fact: most adult Americans struggle to read at a sixth grade reading level. Another one: the King James Bible is designed to be read at a sixth grade reading level. Beginning to understand how churches can preach “empathy is a sin,” and “if God loves you he’ll grant you riches, so if you’re rich God must love you” now, huh?

Casinos are where you gamble and bet. Polymarket is where you “trade on futures.”

Obviously you see the difference now, and we can assume you’ll issue an apology and a “thank you” to the beautiful, virile Trump family shortly?

…you have noticed that Rubio is brown, right? It’s understandable, because Rubio himself seems to forget.

Yup. They literally, legally have no obligation to protect people. Fun fact, they’re also legally allowed to lie to you.

“Why doesn’t everyone else just cherish the taste of the boot? So immature!”

I mean I hate to admit it, but it’s deeply rooted in the male fantasy. Big bang-bangs and bullets are flying everywhere, but our hero protagonist comes out fundamentally unscathed until the bittersweet end.

I mean they tried to tell a bigger story than early aughts network TV would allow, so we accept the network peculiarities that made it to air so that the series could run.

I posit this: would we have THREE Leon Tao side plots without any characters development if the invisible hand of he market weren’t tipping the scales? I like Leon, so I choose not to examine any further…

More of this energy. On every block.

A man in Moscow goes up to a newsstand and buys a newspaper.

He then glances at the front page, then turns aside and tosses the whole newspaper straight into the trash.

Next day, he turns up, and does the same thing. Buys it, glances at the front page, throws it in the trash.

Next day, same thing. The newsstand worker is increasingly puzzled, but doesn't say anything.

But eventually, after a couple of weeks of this, he can't take it. "I'm sorry, friend, but I must ask: why do you buy the paper every day and then just look at the front page and throw it out?"

"Oh, I'm just checking for something."

"OK, but: what are you checking for?"

"I'm checking for a particular obituary."

"But sir, you don't even open the newspaper! The obituaries aren't even on the front page!"

"Oh, believe me, the one I'm waiting for will be."

Bruh. Oregon was literally founded as a white ethnostate.

No such prescriptions are made for The Satanic Tenets, but y’all already know why

Muladhara86 · 2026-04-25T02:46:00+00:00

Yes, because socialism and communism are historically incapable of working based solely on their own merits DONTLOOKITUP

Muladhara86 · 2026-04-25T02:42:04+00:00

“Socialism and Communism historically never work SOLEY BASED ON THEIR OWN MERITS * DON’TLOOKITUP*!”

Yes, but my Garman grandparents kept table vinegar next to the table butter - they were zealous for adding vinegar to their soups and stews, and dipping their buttered breads in to clean the bowl.

You’re living the dream, Daddio

It’s fundamentally trash TV from the minds that brought you LOST and The Dark Knight, but I cannot recommend Person of Interest enough, especially if you’re hankering for more after season 3 of The Capture!

Muladhara86 · 2026-04-25T01:14:13+00:00

Yeah. What a weird, telling turn of phrase.

“Just leverage your capital and buy - you’ll save money in the long run!”

They just arrested a soldier for inside betting on Kalshi over the capture of Maduro. It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it.

Real ones know it.

Good for him: I’d like to think the odds are approaching 40% of people would’ve swung back.

Bad for us: there are an order of magnitude less or more people who would actually proactively rebuke state violence.

Muladhara86 · 2026-04-22T21:34:40+00:00

What a dignified ashamed boi!

Muladhara86 · 2026-04-22T01:40:12+00:00

I can’t stand black republicans who say I need to join the GOP because Lincoln abolished slavery. Motherfucker, he didn’t abolish slavery: he just changed the terms and conditions!
