  • Real America’s Voice host Steve Gruber told Trump during an audio interview Friday, “I made a prediction on this program that before you left office, that Greenland would be under our operational control.”

    “You’ll be right. They want to do something,” Trump said. “Greenland is important from our standpoint, not from their standpoint…You should make that bet.”

    I honestly try my best not to listen to Trump speak because it seems to hurt my brain and be bad for my soul, so maybe I’m just misinformed here, but I’m surprised that Trump would even acknowledge that he’ll be leaving office.










  • That delusion is so common that I suspect it must have a name, but I don’t know what it is.

    But the better a solution appears, the more a person who sees the solution believes it to be obvious, and therefore also believes that, had they tried to solve the problem, they’d have come up with this “obvious” solution straight away with no effort.

    Meanwhile, the person who actually solved the problem could only come up with the perfect simple solution after a lifetime of study in the area to the point that you’d call them an expert or master, and after agonizing for a long time over this particular problem.




  • I don’t like the idea of people seeing me doing something like that and then judging me, so nobody will ever see me online. I only let my social apps show me as online when I want people to be able to see I’m online. By default, I either leave them off or have them set my status to invisible.





  • I looked at his wikipedia the other day and was surprised to see that he had something like 5 singles that went far up the charts. I hadn’t heard of any of them, of course, but I don’t know that his being a 1 hit wonder is necessarily related to him being a piece of shit who is trying to end American democracy by supporting Trump.

    Also, I wonder what this meme originally was. That guy on the right sort of looks like Obama.

    Which part of that clip gives some room for flexibility? From my watching of the clip, he just says this is an old religious problem that we are now examining from the viewpoint of science, and that the apparent room for flexibility in quantum probabilities don’t offer anything like actual free will. And he essentially concludes by saying that despite there being no evidence of any shred of anything like free will, that we still need to search for and strive for it.
