You know the podcast fad is getting out of hand when your local water company starts spamming you with episodes of its latest podcast.

The real scandal is that the west taught the Chinese Newton’s laws and calculus, they’re regretting it now. Without the knowledge of calculus and Newton’s laws, the Chinese would never have figured out how to make EVs and rockets. 🤡.
The biggest scandal is that top Silicon Valley VC firms went to China and “taught them how to do early stage investing.”. Venture capital is American Dynamism. “It is the thing that allows America to be dominant in the global economy.” And we just gave it away. “VCs went over

Which is more astonishing: that the EU officials didn’t know already this most obvious geopolitical thinking of the Chinese, or that Wang Yi had to tell them explicitly?.
EU officials briefed diplomats from "like minded" countries this morning on Wang's meeting with Kallas. They confirmed that Wang told her China has no interest in Russia losing the war because the US would turn its full attention to Asia, as I reported on Thursday.

I’m registered on Long Island. I think I’ll change my registration back to NYC so that I can vote for this guy who eats with his bare hand just to give a.middle finger 🖕 to this ugly whore named Laura Loomer and her billionaire friends.
Honestly, being an Islamist and a Communist was enough for me to not want @ZohranKMamdani in office. He is from Africa. And you can tell in the way he eats. Disgusting. My dogs are cleaner and more civilized when they eat than little Muhammad.

One real power of the NYC mayor is to appoint a police commissioner. The mayor doesn’t even control the subway or school board. The mayor has little control over taxes. Even the police commissioner ultimately .answers to the police union boss, no matter who appointed him or her.

$12bn is just not enough to entice VCs to disrupt it. So Bloomberg has got a nice sweet spot for himself.
Bloomberg makes $12b in annual revenue with ~$10b coming from Terminal.

It’s a good thing that the mayor of NYC doesn’t have much power as far as taxes are concerned. Only the governor and the state legislature can raise taxes for NYC residents. So relax, not much will happen regardless of who wins the mayoral race.

Britain, France, Germany support U.S. bombing of Iran. Yet these same nations have been the most vocal in condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Moral principles in this world exist within the range of country’s ICBMs. 真理只存在于东风快递射程之内。.

Iran is in Asia.
Proof today that America is basically never going to pivot to Asia successfully.

This reminds me of Lombard street in San Francisco. San Francisco and Chongqing are both known as 山城。.

I can confirm that this Panda’s translation of “G8” is correct as a dick is indeed a jiba 😂.
If China joined the G7, it'd become the G8. In Chinese, G8 sounds like "jiba," which is a vulgar term for penis. We sure as hell don't want to be a fu*king "jiba."😂

A sad picture: A decapitated owl, the guardian of my pool, was found dead, having been attacked by birds defecating on the pool deck. ( or more likely a strong wind last night blew the owl’s head off).

I sympathize with these soldiers because they probably hadn’t been to a toilet to relieve themselves for 10 hours. They walked like they were afraid of wetting their pants accidentally.

is this a dragqueen parade in DC? I thought Pride 🏳️🌈 parade is not until the last Sunday of June.
