I've been using this screen name for decades.

The current political climate is NOT HELPING.
It is possible there is nothing I want to see more in this world than how Mamdani handles Trump being shitty to someone in the press asking a question he dislikes.

Elon Musk may be the first person I've seen who manages to consistently stand in an evil manner. Like anyone playing a wicked vizier in a play would be told to tone it down a few notches.

Wild to me that Dem establishment can see the damage downplaying Epstein is doing to MAGA and think they have a move beyond going all-in. Trump's voters trusted him and thought he was on 'their' side; Dem voters already mistrust the establishment and they're gonna downplay a massive elite pedo ring?

I think a lot of it is Trump really, really doesn't want the vote to happen and he/Johnson have furiously tried to stop it. I'm not sure there's a productive motive here, so much as pantsing the school bully. He'll still take your lunch money tomorrow, but for one glorious moment he'll be a loser.

And yes, I know he voted against the latest CR. He didn't urge the moderates to also vote against, and he is not acting like a leader who just suffered a mutiny undercutting an important policy fight. I believe he was in on it

He isn't leading in any meaningful sense in a way that meets the moment.

It would also force Johnson to call the House back to pass it, so they could fit a lot of Epstein congressional drama in before going back to shutdown drama early next year, and if the House discharge petition passes it makes fully nuking the filibuster a lot funnier as a possibility. Not great but.

It was so good I subscribed to Seeso when they announced that was where their followup was going to be!

Then I had to buy Get Krackin' on iTunes because Seeso got cancelled before it came out because clearly nobody would actually pay money for a comedy-only streaming service.

Another MASSIVE vote for The Katering Show and their followup fake morning show, Get Krackin' (also on YouTube now, it looks like for both seasons.) The Kates are spectacular.

...this also reminds me I need to actually watch their Amazon show, Deadloch.

One of the things Gremlins 2 got extremely right was letting the audience knew these kind of thorny lore questions existed and then essentially going 'if you think that's hard to believe, check THIS out,' and leaping off the deep end. Gremlins 3 better not try to make sense.

Does Trump believe in preserving anything, at any point, though?

My guess was going to be some kind of laminate that was billed as real authentic 100% legit artisanal marble slabs. Refuse to believe any of these renovations won't be at least partially grift.

Trump, on the eve of SNAP funding failing, really out here trying to one-up "Let them eat cake." with "Let them look at my bathroom."

Grokipedia is like all the drawbacks of AI concentrated in pure form in a way most people will brush off as 'but it's so impressive!'
I give you the entry on Monoco:
grokipedia.com/page/Monoco

The summary is about industrial supplier. Everything else is about a video game character of the same name
Monoco
Monoco Inc. is an American industrial supplier specializing in the distribution, fabrication, and custom machining of non-metallic heat, electrical, and mechanical wear-resistant insulation materials....

I tried looking up a video game from this year, couldn't find it, but found a page that seems to be 80% spoilers about a character from that game, 20% about an unrelated company of the same name. Immediately useless.
October 28, 2025 at 12:39 AM
The page is FULL OF SPOILERS for the video game; it's also completely useless if you're looking for the company. Grok can't disambiguate.
