  • How do you get better at communicating your thoughts in discussions?

    Jump

  • IRL I might just have an unorthodox, even ignorant, way of looking at things. Which often leads me to be in the minority opposition. So yeah, wouldn’t hurt to be a better communicator lol

    Or you might be smarter than them on that topic too. Imagine that first guy making a working machine that can read your mind for video games (I have articles that can explain that, but I can't search for them now). Maybe don't look at it as wrong vs right or ignorant vs knowledgeable, but look at it as a 2 way learning process.

  • It also depends on whether it's real life or online. Online especially, it's harder to tell if they're discussing with you in good faith or they're trolling you (depending on the topic, of course). If it's not good faith, leave a clarifying comment and leave.

    Don't be afraid of getting it wrong or misunderstanding someone. That's exactly why there is a discussion. Just admit it, take the loss, and learn from it.

  • Capital One says it closed Trump Organization's accounts after anti-money laundering probe

    Jump

  • Capital One Financial (COF.N), hit back on Friday against a lawsuit over its decision to close ‌the Trump Organization's bank accounts years ago, stating that it did so after a review by anti-money laundering experts.

    The disclosure marks the first time a bank has formally tied money laundering concerns to U.S. President Donald Trump's family business. Capital One is seeking to dismiss ​the case by casting doubt on claims of illegally debanking — or denying services on religious or political grounds — ​the Trump Organization.

  • It's the same headline, I just took out the democrat part and clarified his name. Also, the media scrutiny part is hilarious and confirming what I'm saying about the AP. Last comment.

    Also, it’s not the abuse claims that are mounting… it’s the focus on them. The original headline is accurate, and yours isn’t.

    • raise your prices to astronomical amounts

    • if you're trying to unload trash books, change the title slightly to hide it.

    They are still doing this, they're just not advertising it anymore. They haven't stopped, the greeds have a hold of this company and they're not going to let go this easily. Shit, it took 3 weeks for them to take down the page because they used the 404 people as advertising.

  • In 2024, for example, a reporter discovered that Kay Granger, a Republican congresswoman from Texas, who hadn’t cast a vote in months, was dealing with “dementia issues” at a senior living facility. Her office hadn’t felt the need to disclose this to the public.

    I haven't heard about this one.

  • Kash Patel Loses Lawsuit Against Man Who Called Him “Googly-Eyed” Chud

    Jump

  • The judge saw that Stewartson was a poet.

    In June 2023, Patel filed a complaint that Stewartson was smearing him online by calling him a “blatantly incompetent chud” and a “Kremlin asset” who plotted to “overthrow the government” on January 6, 2021.

    Initially, Stewartson didn’t respond to the lawsuit, which led to Patel winning a $250,000 default judgment in August 2025. Stewartson challenged the default judgment on the grounds that he had no meaningful ties to Nevada, where the case was filed, and declared that Patel was a “googly-eyed Kremlin bitch” and, again, a “chud.”

    Stewartson celebrated the final order, which referenced his comment in a footnote. “I’d like to commend the judge for including ‘googly-eyed Kremlin bitch’ in his ruling,” Stewartson wrote on X Tuesday.
