I need to wash my car. The car wash is about 400 feet away. Should I walk or drive there?

I'm surprised no one is calling iodized salt goysalt.
If you're keen on a glimpse into the insanity of the current year, take a look at people complaining about OpenAI getting rid of their "4o" model. Apparently quite a few people "dated" and "married" this version.

On the AI topics one sort of disturbing thing a coworker told me: they use it to generate bedtime stories for their toddler

There wasn't even much consensus among the people of the colonies. Just among the elites. To most people of the colonies, politics wasn't even real. They just wanted to farm, trade, and not be raided by chugs. Whether it was a distant king or to many of them, a congress that was just as practically distant to them, didn't really matter.
One thing I haven't read much here is how mass media has projected more "reality" into politics to the formerly politically apathetic masses. Instead we get revisionism about how everyone was a slave and how that's honorable and literacy was a mistake.

Grandma is pushing fent:
N. WISCONSIN - Following a Jan. 17 traffic stop on U.S. Highway 8 East, three Eagle River residents have been changed on multiple drug charges each. Susan Cody, 74, Barry Clure, 69, and Patrick Menting, 63, face Class C felony drug charges in Oneida County for possession with intent to deliver over 100 grams of fentanyl, allegedly part of a Chicago-to-northern-Wisconsin trafficking ring. The defendants confessed to traveling to Chicago on Jan. 16 to buy fentanyl/heroin. Cody admitted to a decade of Chicago purchases and selling fentanyl to Clure and Menting for 1.5 years. Menting admitted to contributing $320 to the $2,000 purchase and occasionally selling fentanyl, buying about eleven 0.5-gram bags weekly from Cody for a year and a half. Clure claimed the fentanyl found on him was payment for driving. Seized fentanyl from all three totaled over 125 grams. Judge Mary Sowinski set a $500,000 cash bond and no-contact orders for all three. Initial appearances are scheduled for some time this month.
Discourse surrounding the punishment of criminals has been utterly captured by the simplest form of utilitarian thinking: pleasure good, pain bad.
People who despise criminals want to punish them, want them held accountable for their actions and punished at the feet of their victims. The people who claim to love and cherish the criminals want them spared punishment, want them freed from the confines of their cells.
Hogwash. Those who despise criminals ought to want them set free. Let them continue to ruin themselves. Just as the child is made rotten by sparing the rod, the criminal is ruined by his absolvement.
Those who love criminals ought to want to see them punished harshly, to be spared from their wickedness by the rod and crafted into better men.

I make fun of people for not working enough and suddenly 6,000,000 people want me to tutor them today. How much time can I give each of them?

Even if you don’t care about racing you should watch the 2007 dale doc that I believe you can still find on jewtube or the new one from goymazon called Earnhardt because he was a living embodiment of the Faustian spirit
Using the term "Faustian spirit" as a complement has always seemed like such a bizarre practice. "Yeah, this guy wants to know and to advance so much that he's willing to embrace evil and sell his soul to the devil." This is a good thing to you?

The prophecy is being fulfilled....
The tyrant is the unhappiest man imaginable.
American relations with Israel plunged to their lowest point in a decade yesterday when the White House denounced as "unacceptable" statements by the Israeli prime minister comparing the US coalition-building in the Arab world to British appeasement of the Nazis in the 1930s.
The Bush administration was reported to be furious with Mr Sharon's actions, and the White House spokesman, Ari Fleischer, told journalists that the president felt personally affronted by the comparison to Neville Chamberlain and the discredited policies of appeasement in the run up to the second world war. Mr Bush is an avid admirer of Winston Churchill.
An admirer of Churchill, you say? Explains a bit.
