The comments, jesus fucking christ on a pogo stick the comments.

If I could find an alternative way to keep well informed on the war in Ukraine, I would have dummied this app from my life months ago. It's rumble with a sugar daddy, nothing more.
Mclovin the debate between the og poster who laments hitlers demise because it led to sympathy and power wielded by the Jews, and the guy who laments hitler for leading to sympathy and empowerment of the Jews. Fuckin muttonheads.
 
Evans did a couple of Behind the Bastards episodes a while ago about how online booksellers are being overrun by swarms of sellers churning out tons of complete garbage, entirely AI-generated books.

In particular for children’s books, but I’m sure it’s a problem for plenty of other kinds of books as well.
I occasionally read bedtime books to my roommate’s kid and can vouch for this

Conspiracy theory time: Musk bought twitter to try to sway the election, we're going to see a hard pivot on his willingness to float twitter's costs and growing deficits after Kamala wins in november. The advertisers are simply not coming back, they have no interest in "X" and he's probably going to be forced to choose between bankruptcy or taking it public again and letting adults take over it's operation. The current annual loss is projected to be somewhere in the 1.5 billion a year range.

Likewise, we're going to see the bubble pop on Truth social at around the same time. These are platforms being floated by Broligarch money for the time being, but a ROI is expected that doesn't look likely to happen.
