  • Florida Decided There Were Too Many Children

    Jump

  • Florida already seems to have a bit of a problem with child population. Public School enrollment has been declining in my country county and the surrounding countries counties for the last few years.

  • Tucker Carlson says Pete Buttigieg is 'fake gay,' should answer questions about gay sex

    Jump

  • Yes, a capable politician is going to choose the hardest path to advance his career by claiming to be gay. Like playing US politics on super hard mode.

  • Trump Spotted After Widespread And Giddy Speculation He Is Secretly Dead Or Dying

    Jump

  • Tesla FSD turns off more U.S. consumers than it attracts, survey finds

    Jump

  • Look at the robo taxi situation they have going. The same tech that is stopping people off in the middle of the road is what is being used for FSD.

    I wouldn't be surprised if we found out that the whole thing is a scam and there is some sweat shop full of teenagers remotely driving cars. I feel like the random stops where they shouldn't stop is exactly how someone who learns how to drive playing GTA would drive.

  • Trump's military occupation of DC crashes into reality—literally

    Jump

  • Imagine the level of assistance that could be provided to all of those people for the cost of that press conference.

  • TIL Amtrak will let you attach your own private car to one of their trains and they charge you per a mile

    Jump

  • Definitely a case of the journey being more important than the destination.

  • Democrats Unveil Map Targeting California GOP House Members

    Jump

  • On what grounds?

    According to the Constitution, maps will be drawn by the states. There is no national law against gerrymandering. The voting rights act only ensures that there are opportunity districts for minorities.

    The only laws these maps violate are state laws and that will be alleviated by putting the action to a vote.

  • JB Pritzker Responds To Mamdani's No Billionaires Message

    Jump

  • How about you can only leave 10% of your net worth to your family. The rest is put into a lotto pot for a drawing of winners from all citizens. There would be multiple winners so that the pot is divided equally, and the total individual prize would not exceed 100 million. All investment assets would get rolled into social security and Medicare.

  • Not looking so bad now

    Jump

  • This meme would be more accurate if you replace the girl he's with with Fat Bastard from Austin Powers feasting from a trough of IP.

  • Trump frustrated at having to take the heat for Pam Bondi's handling of the Epstein files

    Jump

  • This is what happens when you hire a bunch of sycophants, they are completely incapable of free intelligent thought. Everyone of them spends their days trying to say and do what will make dear leader happiest.

  • Top House Democrats demand release of Epstein files that mention Trump

    Jump

  • Who fucking cares? What is it going to do really? There has been so much publicity of their relationship, it doesn't change anything. Will it result in charges against Trump? Unlikely, the only one I know of who was willing to put herself and her family at risk, is dead (suicide).

    His supporters will find a way to excuse anything away. There could be a picture of Trump assaulting a young teen and they would just say it's not his fault she looked older than she was.

    To those in this thread saying anything released shouldn't be redacted, remember there were victims, this wasn't just Jeff and Don having a brobait with each other.

    I'm sick of the Democrats and their shitty platitudes, because that's all this is. Demand compassion and due process for the millions being terrified by federally protected kidnappers. Demand that Republicans meet to discuss the phasing out of some of the TPS rules (temporary is in the name and just because there is an EO doesn't mean there can't be a law that changes it). Demand that we stop defending the atrocities of megalomaniacs around the world. Demand that the legislative branch takes back the power of the purse and writes laws to affect trade.

    Might be the only time I agree with the ball of congealed Cheeto vomit, but why the fuck are we still talking about Epstein?

  • Paterson calls on leaders to come together to defeat Mamdani in NYC mayoral election

    Jump

  • As someone else pointed out, this infighting is a bad look and will likely cause more problems for the party. They could just do what is expected and support the candidate who was chosen by the people, as many voters have done in the past. He will be lucky to accomplish half of what he has laid out in 4 years. He will not be impossible to primary at that point.

  • Paterson calls on leaders to come together to defeat Mamdani in NYC mayoral election

    Jump

  • I hope he wins handily. Maybe at least one small part of the party could realize that the people are sick of the same old policies and even more tired of seeing the same names on the ballot. Someone would primary the governor.

  • Like its a drag race

    Jump

  • I live in an area where I think the worst drivers in the US live. I absolutely hate people who honk as soon as the light turns green. You don't know what I can see, you don't know if it is safe to go. Because sometimes it isn't. I've had to learn to still look both ways after the light turns green because almost once a week (and I only drive 2-4 days most weeks) I see someone completely blow the red going 60 in a 45.

    I also blame phones for traffic, because it goes the other way too. Why did you miss that green, because 3 people in front of you were on their phones. I usually give a slow 5 count before giving a beep.

  • ‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing

    Jump

  • In some ways that is the answer. Crashes keep happening because they are not being held accountable to regulators because they are not reporting these incidents and no one is exercising oversight to be sure the reporting matches reality.

    I think over the years, accurate reporting by manufacturers has been done because they generally do not want to be known as that car company that killed a child and it could have been prevented with a 50 cent bolt. As a result, regulators have been less hawkish. Of course there are probably political donations in the US to help keep the wheels turning.

  • Vibe coding in a nutshell

    Jump

  • I disagree. The joke is meh without the names. If they did the same thing but with 2 made up people or cartoon characters it would fall flat. This format is disingenuous and doesn't hold up without making it seem like celebrities said it.

  • Mike Johnson Wants Trump to Have More War Powers, Says Law Requiring Congressional Approval is Unconstitutional

    Jump

  • At least dicks can get hard. This fucker has as much spine as a bowl of spaghetti.

  • Tesla Robotaxi Freaks Out and Drives into Oncoming Traffic on First Day

    Jump

  • I've come to the realization, at least where I live, that a hell of a lot of accidents are prevented because of drivers who are actually aware and safe. This goes a bit beyond defensive driving IMO. I'm talking flat out accident avoidable. There is an entire class of drivers who are not even aware of the accidents they have almost caused because someone else managed to avoid their stupid driving.

    The majority of accidents that are likely to happen with these robocoffins will be single car or robocoffin meets robocoffin. The numbers on safety after a year will be acceptable because non accident causing error prone driving is not reported in any official capacity.

    I still maintain that the only safe way to have autonomous vehicles on the road is if they do not share the road with human drivers and have an open standard for communicating with other autonomous cars.

  • Florida Republican who almost died from ectopic pregnancy blames Democrats, not abortion ban

    Jump

  • The 5 weeks pregnant vs 6 week ban is a bit more ambiguous than you might think.

    The Florida 6 week ban calculates the 6 weeks from the first day of the last menstrual period, not from fetal size or date of conception. https://abortiondefensenetwork.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Florida-April-2025-2-1.pdf

    In general, ovulation occurs 12-17 days into the menstrual cycle. Florida's ban is more like a 3 to 4 week ban than a 6 week.

    Edit: spelled ban as can once
