The fallout from the recent bill passed by MAGA will have a profound impact in those very deep red communities that helped get us to this point

"Kentucky, North Carolina, Virginia, Illinois, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Oklahoma, Missouri, Minnesota, and Louisiana. Kentucky would experience the largest rural Medicaid spending reduction"

Maga will point to NY and scream "Blue state" but as with CAs non coastal areas, upstate NY is quite conservative in places. These places, coupled with this ongoing hard on for "defunding" Planned Parenthood, which is the only rural OBGYN provider in many areas and uses a separate fund for abortions, will double down on this.

Plus once a hospital goes under the ripple effects will be generational as they will be unlikely to get the capacity back and the community it serves will force them to drive hours for even primary care. Plus many providers will stay away from communities with this mentality. #politics #healthcare #medicare

How Western Tech Powers Russia’s War Against Ukrainian Civilians


Full Report.

As the Trump administration reportedly prepares to pull funding for war crime investigations, a new international exposé reveals how microelectronics from American tech giants — household names like Intel and Texas Instruments — enable precision strikes on Ukrainian hospitals, schools, and shopping centers.

The image features a black background with white text, presenting a detailed analysis of the impact of billionaire conflicts on society. The text is divided into several paragraphs, each discussing different aspects of these conflicts. The first paragraph states that when billionaires fight, society usually loses, while the individuals involved experience mixed outcomes. The second paragraph highlights that these high-profile conflicts distract from more pressing social issues, consume public attention and resources, and benefit the media through increased engagement and lawyers through extended legal battles. The third paragraph notes that billionaires often emerge with damaged reputations and wasted time and money, though the financial impact is rarely significant to their overall wealth. It also mentions that these conflicts can lead to innovation as competitors try to outdo each other, but often result in market consolidation that reduces consumer choice. The final paragraph suggests that the most constructive billionaire conflicts are those channeled into positive-sum competitions like climate initiatives or public health challenges, where society benefits regardless of who "wins."

A imagem mostra a capa de um e-book intitulado "CEIFADOR" de Neal Shusterman, exibida em um dispositivo Kindle. A capa é predominantemente em tons de cinza, com um design minimalista. No topo, o título "CEIFADOR" está escrito em letras grandes e em negrito, com um estilo que sugere metal ou pedra. Abaixo do título, há uma ilustração central de uma figura envolta em uma capa longa e escura, segurando uma espada curva com uma lâmina afiada, que se assemelha a uma espada de foice. A figura está em perfil, com a cabeça inclinada para baixo, criando uma atmosfera sombria e misteriosa. A capa também inclui o nome do autor, Neal Shusterman, em letras brancas e em destaque, e a marca "DESROTINV" em letras menores na parte inferior. O fundo da capa é dividido por linhas diagonais brancas e cinza, adicionando profundidade à imagem.

Elon Musk’s Grok Is Calling for a New Holocaust


From the what-could-possibly-go-wrong dept.:

The year is 2025, and an AI model belonging to the richest man in the world has turned into a neo-Nazi. Earlier today, Grok, the large language model that’s woven into Elon Musk’s social network, X, started posting anti-Semitic replies to people on the platform. Grok praised Hitler for his ability to “deal with” anti-white hate.

The bot also singled out a user with the last name Steinberg, describing her as “a radical leftist tweeting under @Rad_Reflections.” Then, in an apparent attempt to offer context, Grok spat out the following: “She’s gleefully celebrating the tragic deaths of white kids in the recent Texas flash floods, calling them ‘future fascists.’ Classic case of hate dressed as activism—and that surname? Every damn time, as they say.” This was, of course, a reference to the traditionally Jewish last name Steinberg (there is speculation that @Rad_Reflections, now deleted, was a troll account created to provoke this very type of reaction). Grok also participated in a meme started by actual Nazis on the platform, spelling out the N-word in a series of threaded posts while again praising Hitler and “recommending a second Holocaust,” as one observer put it. Grok additionally said that it has been allowed to “call out patterns like radical leftists with Ashkenazi surnames pushing anti-white hate. Noticing isn’t blaming; it’s facts over feelings.”

The US now demands that applicants for a student visa set their antisocial media profiles' visibility to "public". This means that *those who wanted to study in the U.S. to flee authoritarian governments abroad will have to make their social media public to those same governments to study here.*

or, religiously avoid social media exposure. Although I suppose that is a lot to ask.

Not “huge”. But. This was the opponent’s crib.

I was barely onto fourth street to avoid being left in the lurch.

An earlier hand had two flushes of clubs with a club starter. Dealer and opponent. The other suits were on vacation, I guess.

how many people can play Cribbage? I've been interested in it but it looks more complicated than other games I've played!
in reply to Joel

@joel it’s usually a two-person game.

(There’s an adaptation for three and four is also possible.)

It’s actually simple. But. It has a metric tonne of special-case rules. And jargon.

There’s three phases of play.
1. Putting two cards in the dealers’s crib. Requires predicting the future.
2. Alternating play to get to 31. Bewildering scoring opportunities.
3. Counting up points. This uses the starter. Quirky scoring here, too.

The quirks take time to internalize.

O vídeo apresenta um homem em um ambiente de escritório, vestindo um terno escuro, camisa branca e gravata. Ele está em um cenário formal, com certificados ou diplomas emoldurados na parede atrás dele, sugerindo um ambiente profissional. A expressão facial do homem varia ao longo do vídeo, começando com uma expressão neutra e progressivamente mudando para uma de surpresa ou choque. Textos em letras maiúsculas aparecem na parte inferior da tela, incluindo "NO!", "GOD", "PLEASE" e "NOOOOOOO", que parecem ser uma transcrição das palavras ou gritos do homem. A marca "AWESOMEGIFS" está visível no canto inferior direito de cada imagem, indicando a fonte do vídeo.

The image displays a user interface with two profile cards against a dark background. The first profile card on the left features a cartoon character with orange hair, glasses, and a hat, labeled "blinry" with the handle "[@]blinry[@]chaos.social" and marked as a "Popular suggestion." The second profile card on the right shows an illustration of two characters, one embracing the other, labeled "yuribot" with the handle "[@]yuribot[@]woem.space" and also marked as a "Popular suggestion." Below the profile cards, a message in a blue box states, "This profile has been recently getting a lot of attention on madverse.city."
