Same. I am naturally repelled by groups, do not like hanging out other than 1:1, and have no interesting in cheering for any team or group, etc. That’s just not for me. It actually works really well for me that all my friends are singletons in cities all around the world — no possibility of a friend group.

Assuming they are crated, you could fit approximately 200 W80 warheads in a shipping container, in fact.
Oh… Look at the horrifically unsafe gain-of-function research being done in China to produce wildly lethal chimeric viruses based on bat viruses under BSL2 conditions that they are just proudly talking about in December of 2025. Nothing to see here. Move along. pic.twitter.com/bPqw7Uz0MS

It’s hard to believe the “race doesn’t exist” propaganda when a genetic test can determine it quite reliably.
This is such a great twin study because it reveals how unreliable twin studies are.

Yes, this is all just part of the left’s ongoing mendacity about how “everyone is exactly the same.”
Issues ยท WordPress/gutenberg ยท GitHub.
LOL @ Gutenberg having more than 5,600 open issues on GitHub. That’s hilarious.
Great work. Really gettin’ it done.
I don’t care how this website looks on a phone. In fact, I hope it looks like shit.
If I thought it wouldn’t break the website in edge cases on desktop I’d make sure it does not work on phones at all. Fuck smartphones.
True. All the leftists just sort of expected Israel to commit a genocide in Gaza, and when it didn't, they just decided to run with it and say it did anyway. https://t.co/PgnOZG2Jjd

Ha, yep. The Israelis conducted a fairly normal war there that achieved its military objectives with some accidental collateral destruction that occurs in any war, no matter what.
And then they stopped. There was no famine. There was no genocide. That was all ginned up for the media — which the idiot left readily consumed — by Hamas and associated factions. I looked at satellite images my actual self (not proxied through any media company, etc.) of aid trucks delivering in Gaza. Anyone with sufficient interest can just do this. Did the leftist genocide-screechers? Of course not.
Israel is one of the few countries in the world that has ever delivered millions of tons of aid to the people they are fighting against.
Much of the left at this point I think is just pure evil. They support the “right” of a Hamas terrorist or Islamist to murder someone like Shani Louk over anything else.
All of them should be deported to and/or expatriated to Somalia. Every last one.

5 Reasons Why I Hate the New WordPress Editor Gutenberg.
People hate Gutenberg, at least people who want to just write, and thatโs most WordPress users.
โPeople are instinctively curious: they want to learn, and they learn best by active self-directed exploration of their environment. People strive to master their environment: they like to have a sense of control over what they are doing, to see and understand the results of their own actions.โ
That’s from the official Apple user interface guidelines. The first part is certainly untrue, as much as I like the whole work. About most things, including their computers, people are definitely not curious. In fact they will go far, far out of their way to make sure they know nothing of how it works or how best to use it.
Adults at least are generally very incurious in my experience.
Priorities for the new year:
1) Constrain Russia and China enough to keep them from steamrolling most of Europe and Asia, respectively.
2) Prevent third world Islamic migration from destroying Western Civilization.
3) Reverse the trend in the US of anti-wind, anti-solar and anti-battery sentiment. This antipathy to the inevitable future is more dangerous over the long term than what Trump is doing directly.
Cripes, we have a lot of shit to do. Best get started.
My hot take: Listening to audio books does not count as “reading” the book, and is only a little different than watching the movie based on a book.
I’m glad audiobooks exist, don’t get me wrong. Some people need them. But they are slow and inferior to actually reading.
The first time I installed a WordPress site and that turd Gutenberg thing was the default interface, I thought the install was faulty.
And in a way, I was right. It is defective by default.
I don’t particularly like Ries, but Nancy gets such a great sound out of her cello. She makes it a really different and better piece than usual.
