At this point I don’t know why anyone is buying those death-traps. For me any benefit from the self-driving feature is outweighed by the safety and poor build quality issues.

Thanks for the clarification. It helps a lot.

Uh oh, they are finally onto Big Ice!

Bird flu’s got you covered!

And when a bunch of the people slated for relocation can’t move because of family/finance obligations… “Oh dear, I guess we’ll have to let you go and replace you with one of the maga fanatics who signed up back in 2024 to work for the federal government!”

This is so obviously an exercise in packing government agencies/departments with loyalists. Professional expertise or competence be damned.

Ah tell yew hwat, that would have never occurred to me before.

I started using it right after they launched their streaming service. Back then it was awesome. No ads, nice UI, and lots of great content, so for a good price.

But that was a long time ago.

I cancelled my subscription several months ago. And I should have done it much sooner. The difference between what is was way back in the day and what it is now is jarring.

I think a lot of people keep paying for nostalgia reasons, and because of a futile hope that Netflix might somehow go back to that earlier version. In retrospect I think that was a big part of why I kept my subscription for as long as I did (which was obviously a mistake on my part).

Now, the company says it imagines an “Uber-type of setup” to fill their ranks, with gig workers logging in remotely to argue with customers from the comfort of their own homes.

So they’re using their spectacular failure as a chance to exploit their new ‘employees’ via the gig economy.

Fuck them. They have learned nothing about respect or decency, and I hope they continue to crash and burn.

He should just come out and announce that he worships Nurgle.

Thanks for the typo notification.

These and similar people are worse than any Eldridge Eldritch horrors or demons that we are a species could ever imagine. Because they have extended their malice and cruelty and unbridled hatred into the real world, and insulated it in a convenient shell of righteous justice.

Here’s a link from a December 2024 article. It mentions how the people behind Project 2025 had an online questionnaire. I remember reading somewhere that I’m addition to being an promoted on maga web sites, the questionnaire was also heavily promoted at Trump’s rallies. I can’t find a link on that now, but it makes perfect sense that’s one of the places where they’d be advertising it and gathering names. It would be a very effective way of reaching those people.

Pertinent parts of this article, which again was published before he was sworn in, include:

Among Donald Trump’s many disconcerting campaign promises is a pledge to fire tens of thousands of federal employees and replace them with loyalists.

Project 2025’s online questionnaire for landing job in the next Trump administration asks about the influences on applicants’ “political philosophy.” According to one alumnus of the first Trump administration, the idea is to “see that you’re listening to Tucker, and not pointing to the Reagan revolution or any George W. Bush stuff.”

Remember how during the election campaign he had sign-up forms for the maga loyalists who attended his rallies and were interested in working for his government?

This is the next step in that plan. The first step was having Musk and his DOGE lackeys gut the federal government of anyone who was employed in areas they didn’t like, it those who might be critical of them.

Now they are moving to step 2: they are going to use subs of the freed-up wages from those lost positions to flood the federal government with their loyalist grunts. And ICE is the perfect place for most of them. These people will get to strut around in their armed forces paraphernalia, persecuting immigrants and people with darker skin than them.

I’m surprised I haven’t seen any mention of those rally sign-up forms anywhere recently. But this is all part of a wider plan.

The same courts that the government routinely ignores, and that has a sham, corrupt supreme court at it’s head? Yeah, good luck with that, unfortunately.

user names and passwords for logging in to various accounts belonging to Schutt have been published at least four times since 2023 in logs from stealer malware.

Oof. That’s embarrassing. He’s been oblviously leaking his credentials for months due to an earlier infection by malware.

“I don’t stop at yield signs,” he continued.

I haven’t heard this expression before. I understand that he’s trying to project the whole ‘alpha male’ things through that phrase. But that’s a fucking stupid expression. Yield signs are there for everyone’s safety, including your own. Not yielding at them, either literally or figuratively, is the sign of a dunce.

That’s objectively poor survey design. For questions like that there should always be an ‘Other’ option. There should also be a ‘None’ or ‘N/A’ option.

It’ll just be a poorly-drawn bicep (for manliness) that looks suspiciously like a cock and balls.

Most of the new testament is for suckers and losers in these peoples’ opinion. They are all about the vindictive, crazy shit in the old testament, and a few rare things from the new testament. like Paul’s letters.

Welp, that right-hand photo just introduced me to my new sleep paralysis demon.
