Andor
I finally finished Andor earlier this week. Itās the best Star Wars content since 1981, by far. And unlike pretty much all Star Wars media since the original trilogy, it enhances rather than undermines the original story and characters. Just a phenomenal series that added well-crafted depth and weight to the lighthearted hero adventure of the OT. The only downside is that this will get my hopes up and Iāll probably end up enduring several new shittastic movies or series that suck as bad as Obi-Wan and the sequels. Andor -> Rogue One -> Original trilogy tells an interesting story. The rest is lame fan fiction and I assume it never happened. Canon is subjective. We donāt have to accept a bunch of hacky horseshit just because Lucas or Disney rubber stamped it.

CR Poster #1: *posts satirical content* CR Poster #2: āIs that real? If so, holy shit.ā CR Poster #3: āNot real. But pretty funny.ā CR Poster #2: āAh. I figured it was too crazy to be real. Still hilarious.ā CR Poster #1: āYeah, sorry. Itās satire. Thought that was clear.ā Anastasis: āHaha! Yāall completely fell for mainstream media propaganda!

The Texas Dems need to stop fucking around and start instructing their members to vote in the Republican primaries, for specific candidates. We arenāt going to win statewide elections any time in the near future. The best thing the party can do to help their constituents in the near term is push the few remaining non-fascist Republican candidates through to the general.- The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread

- How do I prepare my kids to live in (or leave) a nation in decline?
One of the ironies of the LLM type generative AI is it sucks at calculating. Itās just not built to crunch numbers, even though it runs on the most powerful calculators ever built. LLMs are really good at predicting the appropriate next syntax element. Which is why itās great at writing paragraphs that read like a human wrote them. It generates the right form of content. But itās not necessarily great at generating accurate content because itās designed to give you want you want rather than whatās objectively correct.- How do I prepare my kids to live in (or leave) a nation in decline?
I gave my oldest this advice. Donāt do CS. Study CE or EE instead. As of a couple years ago, a lot of really smart kids with otherwise savvy parents were still flocking to CS programs. And typically, theyāre paying full freight to go to a less prestigious school than they could have attended had they chosen a less competitive major. All to learn a skill that AI can already do better, cheaper, and faster. CS is probably the current most competitive major from an admissions standpoint. The GPAs and SAT scores required to get into a decent program are astounding. In the coming years, many of our best and brightest young minds will graduate with a boatload of debt and very few job prospects. This AI shit really snuck up on us.- Texas -- a failed state
If the bar for banning something is āIt could make a 20-something kid do something stupid that gets them killed,ā then we also need legislation banning alcohol, driving, pussy, and just generally being a 20-something kid.- What the fuck is wrong with you Lake Grapevine NO CR

Trickle-down economics is the most obvious lie ever told. āHey working class people. I know you want a fair share of the American prosperity youāve created. Now, we could just hand that to you directly. But wouldnāt it be better for you if, instead, we handed that money over to rich people and then counted on their undeniable devotion to fairness to somehow distribute this money equitably?ā- I want to embrace my country again
Too stupid, too ignorant, too distracted by shiny objects and bullshit. A couple months ago, I visited some family in the rust belt. They live in a once-thriving town that has been on the decline since the 70s. Itās full of abandoned factories, boarded-up storefronts, and decaying once-stately homes. And slot machines. Everywhere. And I mean everywhere. Every bar has slots. The corner convenience store with bars on the window has slots. The national gas station chain has slots. The neighborhood grocer has slots. The car wash has slots. The BBQ joint has slots. The fast food fried chicken place has slots. The lingerie and dildo store has slots. And if you donāt want your degenerate gambling to be distracted by a car wash, fried chicken, or panties, not to worry: there are plenty of gaming parlors that offer nothing but slots, slots, slots. As the kids would say: weāre cooked. This board is an anomaly. Your social circle is the exception. Most of America is full of uneducated dipshits who couldnāt give two shits about democracy or rights or equality. All they want is to eat ultraprocessed empty calories and feed their dopamine habit by jamming what little money they have into a noisy, blinky theft machine. The Idiocracy is upon us.- Israel
If history is any indication, they will do a sudden about-face. And then 24 hours later, theyāll do another sudden about-face. And then 24 hours later, theyāll do another sudden about-face. And then 24 hours laterā¦- Trumpās America
Yup. My dad, until recently a lifelong Republican loyalist, admitted that Trump helped him see āthe uglinessā of his own politics.- Texas may have accidentally legalized marijuana
Yep. Which is great news because your options will be either (a) not sleeping or (b) shitty prescription drugs, both of which lead to individual and public health risks as well as declining productivity. All because a drug that works pretty well as a sleep aid with fewer downsides is also fun. And Texans may not have any fun unless it leads directly to conception.- Pro-Palestinian Nutjob Shoots and Kills Two Israeli Diplomats in D.C.
