Rathbone recently went on InfoWars and then him and his partner started a gross mud-slinging campaign against a few other content creators that rightfully called him out for it. Him, his partner (comradebaddie), and any creator friends still in his circle (buddyhead) are not comrades and we should not be making space for them.

Also, the fact that this went down so suddenly (although I didn't follow him much, so I idk if there were more signs) is a good lesson in why we should be much more critical of content creators, especially when they are not explicitly and demonstrably principled Marxist/dialectical materialists and are growing to a size where they are strongly financially incentivized to pivot to reactionary politics.

Things in the southeast are very bleak

One of GamsSpot's editors is coincidentally named Max Blumenthal. Let's just say I was very confused when the Echoes of Wisdom review credits listed him as the editor/gameplay for the video.

If the kitchen has a gas stove then you should install a ventilation hood that vents to the outside, that's probably the biggest air quality win you could make. (Edit: Well, aside from switching to induction, if that's in your budget)

I dunno about filters that can fit in wall cavities, but for general filtration: "The Best Air Purifier Is A $150 DIY Option". I suppose you can DIY something that saves some space by tucking into a wall cavity, but I don't know if it's worth sacrificing the insulation, unless you're also building ventilation to the outside using the same wall. I would poke around DIY/workshop youtube channels, a quick searched turned up this build that utilizes ceiling space. (At least with the walls down, you can more easily install ceiling outlets.

I use an older AirGradient to track particulates and CO2, it's been great for knowing when the room I'm sitting in is spiking in CO2, so I can crack a window or something.

Beware if you have any pets, especially cats, minoxidil is extremely toxic to them

The youtube algo blessed me with a 3-hour video on the relationship between astronomy and settler colonialism and I have never clicked on a new channel suggestion so fast before. Starting it now, but I might make separate post for it once I finish it

Obama is just giving putler a le epic staredown to show him who's boss (CW: pure, distilled reddit liberalism)

(Googling obama putin site:reddit.com brings up several pages of minor variations of photos of Obama and Putin w/ redditors role-playing how Obama epically pwned Putin with a staredown )

Lmao the r/news thread got locked by mods because users kept making and upvoting comments mocking the death by using the same language media uses to describe cops murdering civilians. Honestly surprised to see it, maybe the bootlickers and their bots are away for the holiday weekend.

Straight to for this "person."

As if those gulag scenes weren't bad enough, they used a former nazi prison as the set. And then tried to sell Airbnb trips to the nazi prison. Like, goddamn.

When Israel does it, it's "pre-emptive", but when anyone else does something to them, it's "unprovoked"

Surprised the mere mention of masks didn't prompt the interviewer to snap her fingers and summon a pack of 's to haul nurse ratchet away for slightly harshing the vibes of their genocide pep rally

Actually I assume the second Chinese CPUs and GPUs become a competitive threat to Intel and AMD, they will be tariffed to hell. But unlike Chinese EVs, gamers would largely know what they're missing out on, as benchmarks are easy to share. I wonder how they'll handle knowing they can't max their framerates due to huge tariffs or maybe even complete bans 🤔

Gamer discourse will only get more confused and contradictory as China inevitably begins dominating the video games industry. Even if, hypothetically, none of their games ever reach mass appeal in the west, it's only a matter of time before the best available hardware is Chinese.

I'd like to say it will be fun to watch the chuds grapple with their sinophobia and anti-communism getting in the way of their rabid consumerism, but tbh I think most chuds will just quietly rationalize it and, at best, rant less about China. Maybe we'll even get some cursed synthesis like "China is only good because they're anti-woke!"

Yes,

Every day I think "I can't possibly hate the zionist entity more" and every day I'm proven wrong

I'd be tossing fists full of ninja rocks off my balcony every night

Trying to transition to mid-game in the new Oxygen Not Included DLC. Accidentally released a pocket of several hundreds of kilograms of oxygen into my base. At least I don't need to worry about breathability for many, many cycles

Live reaction of my duplicants (the little dudes that run my colony) looking at all the decor items I built to counteract their long-term perma-"popped eardrums" stress debuff:

The embassy saying the best they can do to help is email him a list of lawyers, but that they don't recommended any of them, and then suggesting, because all of his electronics were confiscated, (when they know he's under house arrest) that he go to an internet cafe
