Every vote for the BBB was republican. All the pork was at the behest of republicans, All the changes that were made in the reconciliation rounds were made to placate republicans. Republicans are 90 percent uniparty corporate whores.
Musk is right in general, but targeted intervention in republican primaries makes much more sense tactically and fiscally than competing with a third party in the general.

I think "my" Star Wars saga is the following:

Andor
Rogue One
Star Wars
Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi

I don't hate the other movies or series or want to disparage them. There are parts I like about all of them, but the movies and series above just feel like the complete story to me. Also, I want Han and Leia to have a happy ending. Apparently, I'm a romantic.

Does people doing things that upset others also upset you?

This question came about over a discussion my brother and I had about whether dogs should be on leashes when outside. We both agreed that yes, they should, for several reasons, but that's not the point.

Let's use a hypothetical to better illustrate the question. Imagine that there's a perfume - vanilla, for example - that doesn't bother you at all (you don't like nor dislike it), but that is very upsetting to some people, and can even cause some adverse reactions (allergies or something). In this hypothetical, based on the negative effects, you agree that vanilla perfumes should be banned. Currently, however, they are allowed.

You're walking down the street, and randomly smell someone passing you by and they're wearing a vanilla perfume.

Would that upset you? Why, or why not?

My answer is yes, without a doubt. Even though the smell itself doesn't bother me, the fact someone would wear that perfume and not only potentially upset others, but put them in danger, is upsetting.

My brother, however, would say no! He couldn't explain his reasoning to me.

I know this is a little convoluted, but I hope I got my question across.

There was a certain type of perfume that seemed popular back in the 90s, that would make me instantly gag and almost puke within seconds. I have no clue how anyone found that as any sort of pleasant smell.

To me I thought it smelled like a woman with a nasty yeast infection, trying to cover it up with potpourri. But it wasn't even the women's health causing it, literal potpourri smell alone causes me the same gag reflex, the stuff just smells nasty to me and I can't be in the same room as that smell for long.

So yes, there are reasons to be offended by particular scents, even if others somehow find them pleasant.

You know whatโ€™s crazy is the end of the Bible always talks about how the final showdown between good and evil happens on the fields of Armageddon, like itโ€™s some MCU shit.

Armageddon is a real place. You can just go there. Itโ€™s largely just farmland. Not much happening in terms of biblical revolt.

Just kind of growing grains and stuff. Day to day stuff.

There are Kikes who call themselves Atheists who insist they are different than Goyim who call themselves Atheists

I would suggest that when profession of belief in their deity Hashem is removed they are still culturally Kikes

There is the shared Kike cultural value between both Kikes who call themselves Atheists and Kikes who call themselves theists and that is the value of discriminating against people based on alleged ancestry

[Workaround] (Arch, KDE Plasma 6.4, Wayland) Resuming from sleep taking up to 30 seconds, display settings not loading, screen auto-rotate broken after suspend - issue with iio-sensor-proxy 3.7

Once again posting something for reference as I couldn't find it online

Symptoms


No issues after logging in.
After suspending (sleep) and resuming, screen takes 25 - 30 seconds to turn on.
Display settings in Plasma take a long time to load, sometimes don't show automatic rotation option.
Turning on screen after turning off (even without sleep) takes a long time.
No suspicious logs in Kernel and Journald (even after comparing post-fix).
Switching kernel makes no difference.
Logging out and back in temporarily fixes screen rotation and screen waking until next suspend.
Everything works in X11 session apart from screen rotation (appears unsupported).
Running monitor-sensor hangs when running after suspend
systemctl stop iio-sensor-proxy fixes slowdown issues

Workaround


Downgrading to iio-sensor-proxy 3.6-1 following Arch Linux package downgrade instructions.
In my case with a cached package
```<>
sudo pacman -U file:///var/cache/pacman/pkg/iio-sensor-proxy-3.6-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

and optionally adding it to IgnorePkg  
```<>
IgnorePkg   = iio-sensor-proxy # Issues in Wayland after suspend

System info


OS: Arch Linux x64
Host: Lenovo ThinkPad L390 Yoga
Kernel: 6.12.35-1-lts
DE: Plasma 6.4.2
iio-sensor-proxy (broken version): 3.7-1
Last full system upgrade: 2025-07-06

The oligarch Jeff Bezos got married in Venice. The bride and groom were seen waving like the British royals, only not so poor. By the way, whoever bought Venice also bought the Washington Post, 12 private jets and the book "Exploitation of Workers for Dummies". If you calculate the cost of the wedding in relation to his wealth and then convert it to a normal mortal, the wedding only cost around 20 dollars. So just a totally cheap sausage buffet. After all, Bezos has also donated 3 million to charity, the equivalent of half a sausage.

Alien (A23P)

Common tale of riches if a proper hero can only slay the dragon before it.

The dragon has no interest in going to go buy goods at the market as it has no need.
Nor does it ever have worry of other dragons having interest in seeking out to take it's "treasures".

The dragon, just seems to be hoarding "treasure" for no particular reason at all and rare is one to find questioned as why a dragon would have any such "modern man" like interest in "treasure" at all.

"Bezos", "Musk", "Buffet", etc.
are IRL "dragons". where "meta" hits the real. *le sigh*

And I should point out also that the three installations, in Esfahan, in Natanz Fordo, that the American regime, the regime in Washington and the regime in Tel Aviv bombed. All three of these installations are regularly inspected by International Atomic Energy Agency experts. All of them, every part, every building, every place that's been bombed is under regular inspection. In other
words, there's nothing there. But the United States and Israeli regime give themselves the right to do what they want. And the Western media by lying, by fabricating information, by fear-mongering, they justify it.
