So if FLI (EA AI Doomer org) was seeded with $600M in Shiba Inu proceeds injected into Vitalik's, wallet... how much should I aim for to seed an e/acc think tank to take on the Doomers? 🤔 Time to build a war chest.
E/ACC vs. D/ACC: THE DEBATE @VitalikButerin thinks slowing down AGI by four years is worth it. @beffjezos thinks that's exponential opportunity cost.

A change of ownership alone won’t fix this. Trust in mass media fell from 53% in 1997 to 28% in 2025. Morning shows lost about half their viewers in a decade. Cable news is fighting over fewer leftover boomers. Digital subscribers are not replacing the old mass audience.

Talarico is somehow even more beta and anti-Constitutional than Beto O'Rourke. Here he is boldly announcing his intention to infringe on Americans' firearm rights, in clear violation of the Second Amendment. That ALONE should disqualify him from government forever. 🤨
James talarico confirms he would "absolutely" vote to ban certain guns and magazines. #TXsen #2A

This is who James Talarico is Fake Christian, a predator asking you to elect him by being a fraud He is a disgusting Leftist who is obsessed with the trans and gender issue and wants to brainwash your children KEEP TEXAS RED
Yes, @jamestalarico we know you are a predator pretending to be a sheep You are a disgrace. At every turn you have something negative to say about Christianity. But not about drag queens and trans children. Suddenly all your positive words come out. Funny how that keeps happening, don't you think? You hate Christ and the Bible and everything it teaches. You are a fraud. You are not fit for America. You are not fit for Texas. KEEP JAMES TALARICO FAR FROM OFFICE (and children)

Infinite money glitch: Start a camera surveillance company that watches Flock cameras to keep them safe. Then start another company to watch those cameras. Then another. Then another.
Flock Safety has issued a legal demand seeking the removal of a public map showing the locations of approximately 300,000 of its surveillance devices across the United States.

Union membership: 33.5% in 1954 10% in 2025 Private sector: 5.9% Public sector: 32.9% Private employers that priced labor above the market lost jobs and market share to firms that didn’t. Government unions face no customers and no exit, so the cost gets passed to taxpayers. Density followed that split. (government unions must be banned btw)

Illegal immigration costs the average American household $1,134 a year. (FAIR’s 2023 estimate) Largest items: K-12 education — $78.0B Healthcare — $42.7B Law enforcement — $19.0B Federal welfare — $11.6B K-12 is the biggest line because Plyler v. Doe requires public schools to enroll children regardless of status.

A license to work is like a license to live.
1 in 5 workers now needs a government “loicense” to work. 5.3% in 1950 16.1% by 1980 21.6% in 2025 (BLS) Most of the rise came from new state licensing laws, then from employment shifting into already licensed fields.

The Fifth Circuit just ruled the right to keep arms includes the right to buy them. Federal law already lets you buy a rifle or shotgun straight from an out of state dealer, but a handgun had to bounce through a second local FFL and a $30–40 fee. A retired Marine who teaches Americans how to shoot and a competitive shooter in New Mexico sued over that with a Texas dealer and the Firearms Policy Coalition. Judge Jerry Smith’s 2-1 opinion treated the 1968 interstate handgun rule as a categorical purchase ban, said the government’s historical analogues don’t look anything like it, and applied the same Bruen test the Supreme Court set in 2022. DOJ can still ask the full circuit or the Supreme Court. For now, law abiding buyers in Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi can get a pistol the same way they’ve always gotten a rifle.

“I was always willing to be reasonable until I had to be unreasonable.” Marvin Heemeyer became a folk hero because Granby proved the legal exits were shut. A concrete plant went up next to his muffler shop, blocked his access road, and flooded his drainage. The town fined him $2,500 for the septic mess that followed, denied the appeals, the zoning board refused a variance, and the local paper backed the officials. He recorded that he was wronged with no recourse and no justice, then spent 18 months secretly armoring a Komatsu inside his shop. On June 4, 2004 he drove through the wall, hit town hall, the plant, and the newspaper, wrecked 13 buildings and $7 million, and killed only himself. The internet clocked the sequence in hours because the grievance was ordinary and the official answer stayed no.

Judges put a convicted child predator back on the street in Maryland and then made taxpayers pay him for the privilege. Ibrahim Mohammed finished a sentence for sexually exploiting a minor, and was then jailed in Louisiana’s Angola prison because ICE still wanted him gone. Ethiopia is covered by the torture convention, so courts blocked the flight. Detention without a reasonably foreseeable removal is illegal, so Judge John deGravelles ordered him released in February. He went to the Baltimore area. ICE grabbed him twice more on the same conviction but the courts called both detentions unlawful and sprung him again. On July 28, an official named Liggins ordered a third arrest “to tie up loose ends.” The judge held him in contempt. The bill was only attorney fees plus $180 in damages, paid by the federal government. Mohammed is still free. Three other men convicted of homicide, kidnapping, and armed robbery walked out of the same Angola unit in February on the identical theory. Too dangerous to release, legally impossible to hold or remove.

Congress created a terrorist removal court in 1996 but never used it for 30 years. It finally got its first case after a family sold their house and bought one way tickets to Afghanistan so the son and son in law could buy guns from an undercover FBI agent and carry out an ISIS mass shooting on Election Day. The son in law who used to guard a US military base in Afghanistan plotted to kill Americans here. The mother helped arrange the sale and the flights but she never got charged. Her son got 15 years. On September 11, the attorney general announced she had been removed to Afghanistan and called it a win for national security.
