       @m0xee @SocraticEthics I suspect the voice message was faked by the CIA to stir the pot.  I wouldn't put it past them to promote some kind of 'False Dmitry'.

       @SocraticEthics I'm struggling to understand American motives here.  My best guess is that the US security establishment are only realizing now that the time and money they pissed away in Iraq should have been spent contingency planning for a post-Putin world, and now they're scrambling.Thoughts?

       @dangillmor You had me all the way up to the last sentence.  Musk actually is stupid, which I think says something about the press, too, relatively speaking.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHjrFKfyZrw

       @timkmak I suspect that Ukraine's priority may be to strategically cut Russia's supply lines to Crimea, which would have enormous military and political consequences.  I am sure that any re-occupation by the Russians in the east will only be temporary, made much shorter by strategic victories in Crimea and the west.

       @lowqualityfacts I mean, Bill Clinton was on the Epstein flight log like 27 times or something.  How different are the Dems REALLY from Trump?TBH, I don't think Biden is quite as bad as the rest.  I may be convinced to vote for him.But not because he's a saint.  Because he's a tired old man who (possibly) realizes the error of his ways only at the end of a long life of enabling venality.

       @dangillmor Okay, nobody wants disinformation to flourish.  But if the underlying principle is a tightening corporate grip on public speech, not anything to celebrate, either.

       @lowqualityfacts 2023 Democrats are basically 1980 Republicans.  Of course they're going to take a Nazi turn.  Where else do they have to go?

       The GOP, as currently constituted, is indeed a threat to democracy.But getting rid of it would only create a one-party state, which definitely would not be democracy, either.What price are you willing to pay to preserve democracy?  Getting rid of BOTH the Democrat AND Republican parties?  Or at least to split each of them into two?

       @mitexleo Can't be friends with everybody.  That's what makes friendship special.

       @anderspuck I know that your analysis is consistent with every credible report that I have heard.  But I still can't suppress my disgust that these Russian morons don't understand that it's coming all the same.  Like they're just going to agree to pretend it won't happen and then agree to pretend to be surprised when it actually does.

       @lowqualityfacts Plus, you always can contest the divorce on the grounds that you never had the consent to contract a valid marriage in the first place.Bullet-proof.

       @lowqualityfacts Use value vs Exchange value.The scenario you posit is comical, but it's actually very typical of real markets.

       @lowqualityfacts Well, you know "heat rises, cold sinks".  It is a phenom with some basis in actual physics.  It stands to reason that there would be a negative relationship between the weight of an object bathed in shadow and the same object flooded with light.

       @lowqualityfacts I believe 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' was a documentary.  So probably true.
