Someplace gotta be the poster community for wilful intransigence.

"He always chose himself" What a brutal summation of a man's life.

www.nytimes.com/2026/07/28/o... new from Chrystia Freeland. Reminds me why I wanted her to replace Trudeau as PM, but maybe it's even better for her to be free to speak her mind like this.

Does Musk truly accept the humanity of any person other than himself? He often theorizes the world is a computer simulation. In a simulation, deaths of others mean nothing. Disappearing black African is a dry run. Next will be "not white", "poor", "elderly", "the left", etc. There is no end.

The pattern: *Nobody died from USAID cuts *Nobody killed by ICE is innocent *No Muslim in UK can escape being labeled rapist or murderer *No Somali in Minnesota is there legitimately by definition When Musk says "zero died" from his USAID cuts, he means zero died who are actual people

Bluesky's Beetlejuice, but you only need to mention his name one time before he appears.
