You’ve heard of a “bucket list”, but have you tried Apocalypse FOMO?

Those DNA kits work differently than what you might expect. When they say “you’re 20% German”, what they mean is that you’ve got 20% of the genetic markers they’ve identified in modern people who identify as German.

This might not seem like a big difference, but it is because genetics doesn’t respect political boundaries. Ancestry will not tell you that you’re 60% Texan because “Texas” isn’t a recognized biological origin. Even though people have been there as long as they’ve been in Mexico.

You also have to accept that 20th Century Germans who’ve participated in DNA testing is the absolute standard for what a “German” is.

Nonsense. The idea of “national DNA” is incoherent leftovers from race-theory.

A female guard replied “If he is dead, we’re going to cover it up and he’s going to have an alibi – my officers,” the FBI notes said. The inmate claimed the whole wing overheard the exchange.

My favorite part is not where the phrase “cover up” is explicitly used, it’s the part where the female guard clarifies that it’s “my officers” who are going to get an alibi. As if she was worried their’d be confusion over the pronoun “he’s”.

In context, this reads like a bad SNL sketch.

Your life must be going pretty well if you’ve got the bandwidth to worry about Trump wearing a hat.

I don’t know why an atheist would be seen as less likely to be bigoted than general population. That’s certainly not my experience especially with regards to Islam. I’d argue that anti-theism is a kind of bigotry.

Many famous atheists are just public misogynists and Islamophobes riding the Joe Rogan circuit with Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro. And let’s not forget how many of them were guests at Epstein Island. Richard Dawkins withered under the spotlight of fame like Smegol under the one ring.

There was a time on the Internet when the atheists were the good guys. It was the same time that Elon Musk was cool.

It’s a funny thing. It’s made me realize that being a pacifist or being anti gun is, in a way, almost a privileged position to take. It’s easy to say “I’m anti violence” when your existence isn’t being threatened, it’s a lot harder to stomach as the threats get more real.

Your existence was being threatened but now that you have a gun you’re safe? Sounds like creative writing to me. What was the threat? How did you counter that threat with a gun? Was their a big confrontation? Did you have to put a motherfucker down?

If you read the article, only the victims were from Utah. The murderer is from Iowa.

TLDR: Classic libertarians think the government should have limited power so they can’t hurt people. American libertarians think the government should have limited power so they can’t help people.

The official rationale coming from the administration is no more coherent than this.

Does anybody use a screensaver in 2026?

This is probably not related to the Iran War, which makes it twice as ironic.

This is incest since Pierre Sprey designed both planes. 😜

Lebanon’s relationship with Hezbollah is complicated. As in Hezbollah has assassinated Lebanese PM’s for in the past for trying to control Hezbollah.

Maybe Hezbollah’s weakness has something to do with the timing, you think?

The American war for independence is a pretty anemic “revolution”. Think about the material conditions of the average American before and after. Now compare that to revolutionary France, Haiti, or Russia.

It’s almost embarrassing to say your fighting for “freedom” when right next door, literal enslaved people were throwing Napoleon’s army into the sea with machetes.

I got a lot of badges when I was a scout. Didn’t have to use my penis for any of them.

That’s pretty much how it already works. It’s just that the pressure to make the “correct” choice is fucking crazy.

I have a small library of music CDs, because I liked music before there was an internet. I recently ripped them to .FLACC.
