There were also the two obvious things that actually mattered to the outcome of that election that you just didn’t menton at all?

This article works WAY too hard to frame this as a maybe. He is without a doubt abusing this system for cash, degrading public trust in justice, re-victimizing victims and letting emboldened Donald back to prey on the public.

What a powerful free endorsement of anthropic…

Too old? But didn’t you see Kamala Harris launched Project 6-7 or whatever the other day. She probably even smelled a jazz cigarette!

I was in charge of the cheese section at a major gourmet grocery store that you know the name of. When I say in charge, it was more the product curation, ordering and in-store “marketing” than the scheduling, conflict management and the more tedious stuff. But I’d do things like set the demo program throughout the store, “design” the cheese case and be the person that was called over as the “expert” when folks with too much money and too little knowledge wanted to feel like they knew what they were talking about.

There was a pleasant, young woman who was a regular customer, none of the negatives of above, but definitely seemed to have enough money to buy anything and everything I’d recommend without even a feigned concern or a cursory glance at the prices. I didn’t know it myself, but I was eventually told by others that woman was Mandy Moore (a very well known pop star and actress, but in maybe a slower point in her career).

I guess one day, my day off, someone noticed her waiting in the section, offered to help her and she politely refused and stayed where she was. They’d send other employees after a bit and she’d again politely decline help, but just stayed in the section “like she was waiting for something” and just line of half-browsing for a noticeably longer time. Eventually she went back up to the original person that tried to help her and asked if a specific employee was available to help her (with her giving a more generous description of me, as I’m told). She was told I wasn’t working that day and I guess she left without buying anything from the section.

So maybe that was a day that could have lead to a much different life had I been working? I resigned from the store pretty soon after as it was actually my 2nd job and I couldn’t sustain the hours of both anymore. But the funniest part is that other employee that Ms. Moore was asking about me would eventually become my wife years later :)

Not sure what “broscience” you’re referencing, but there structure of the show was very transparent -Drew was an actual doctor, board certified addiction treatment specialist and got his start volunteering in hospitals during the aids crisis. That’s when he was told about loveline and he wanted the opotunity to spread awareness.

Adam was unapologetically an unqualified comic relief. But of course, his role was to represent the unqualified “everyman” with Drew there to moderate and correct back to empirical fact and best practice. But he also listened and learned over the years. With time he did better saying the actual right thing a lot of the time through shear repetition. But that was part of the problem.

Eventually, like the problem with smartphones in general, he started to think that simply because he HAD certain knowledge, that he had actually EARNED it. He got more popular than Drew, I think that ultimately crushed Drew’s spirit because, along with a lot of good, he was a BIG narcissist. Realized he couldn’t get the respect or pay that Adam did after 20 years of schooling, sacrifice and he just checked out and became a turbo grifter.

Adam gradually removed anyone from his life that would criticize or remind him that he wasn’t an expert (literally documented day by day in his radio show and podcasts) and he finally became a monster on an entirely different level. Genuinely think with him the change was so abrupt because of CTE. He played a lot of football in the valley in the 70s/80s where nobody carted about safety, and then he boxed in the same era. He just must have had so many head injuries. I hope they study his broken brain when he dies so there can be a little relief in framing his 180.

Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew on Loveline.

HOLY SHIT… Did those two unimaginably broken people take, at first different, but eventually converging, paths to the deepest part of hell.

Both irredeemable pieces of garbage.

These dinosaurs… cancer free?

Interesting. Not unbelievable, but I hadn’t heard specifically. Also, always assumed the point was that it would never have a set or core membership? “We are anonymous” means that you, me, grandpa, we’re all also anonymous, if we have the skillset and want to take up the mantle.

So in that way, anonymous could never be contained/captured in the way you mentioned. Again, that was just more my assumption/understanding. “I am Sparticus”, V for Vendetta, etc…

They are using his fake twitter clone for government communication outside of oversight. I imagine they have relatively horrible information handling and security practices at that company… Has Anonymous or anyone tried to hack in and release?

Plenty of his money comes from France. He won’t leave, if he does, others want that exploitable population he’d leave behind.

Fuck your hollow threats

Didn’t researchers find that people getting repeated cases of COVID were seeing long term compounding issues with cognitive decline?

A.K.A. Repeated COVID cases equals more GOP voters created.

I think you failed to make the point you think you made in original comment.

Woosh yourself, ding dong

grok is not anything other than a programmed set of responses. It does not fear because it is not. The A is the truth, the I is the lie.

Steps to become a billionaire:

1. Abandon humanity
2. Step-on children’s smiles
3. Fund a feasibility study on turning poor into fuel
4. Second study to prove those idiots in the first study wrong
5. Replace gym equipment in second home with dogs you can kick and hit for exercise. The dogs must be trained service animals in active service to people who need them. You bankrupt those people at great personal expense and then you buy their dogs for pennies.
6. Lunch
7. Become billionaire
8. Take cool pictures with swords. Don’t show nobody.
9. Abandon humanity
10. Something kardashian related

Bankrolled what? Community gardens? Art centers? What are you specifically claiming and why is it relevant to this man’s obvious public decline?

Ignore the reality all you want. The change is real, pronounced and the people around him are sounding the alarm

“In May 2024, Fetterman chief of staff Adam Jentleson wrote Walter Reed Hospital director David Williamson a letter expressing concern over Fetterman’s mental health and alleged erratic behavior. Jentleson said that Fetterman engaged in “conspiratorial thinking”, “megalomania”, rambling monologues, reckless driving, and obvious lies, and was avoiding regular checkups with doctors and pushing away people responsible for helping him with his recovery plan.”

Dude was planting community gardens, dedicating his life to children’s programs and telling trump to go fuck himself at every turn in calm clear and cohesive speech and now he’s erratic, laughing about Palestinian children being systemically killed in genocide and is often performatively the only Democratic senate vote on trump core issues.

Yes offense, op. Fuck fox news, without exception?

He wasn’t, that’s the narrative after the fact. That thing fucking changed him fundamentally.
