People gotta get that hopium fix though.

I wish Polymarket would let me bet that he just becomes a pundit somewhere. The way he talked about 'other interests' makes me think it's outside of Politics.

In his resignation letter he wrote

I do not intend to take the oath of office for the same office in the 119th Congress. link

I'm not a law-pede by any means, so I don't know if that is finite and irreversible. I think DeSantis has already called for a special election to fill the seat, which, I imagine Gaetz could run for and win?

The fuck are you on about. If Obama stuck someone with a previous military pedigree, but had been a pundit at CNN for that last decade, it would equally give me pause.

I'm going probably have an unpopular opinion here, but I'm not thrilled about this pick. A talking head with zero qualifications other than loyalty, for SecDef.

No, that power belongs to Congress. But he has both the house and senate, so there's a really good shot.

Starlink is a closed system, and a very very small subset of all network traffic. Again, I think you're hand-waving a ton by simply saying 'Starlink'.

That's not how Starlink works, and I think we'll see unrest around inauguration time.

This is my fear. PDJT definitely needs to just lay low for a bit. He's been barnstorming like a mad man, and deserves the rest.

Yeah, there is no way ChatGPT has been trained with this data yet. Post your chat link OP.

Trump back in office is amazing, but is not The Plan. Public justice is. We'll see.

I mean, it's just a passable dirt path right now. One rain and it may get washed out or become impassable. It should have happened a while ago and by the government, but this is not it's final form. These boys did good, but it'll need to be an actual road again at some point.

It wasn't called Helene in the show. I don't think they gave it a name.

There have been 9 storms named Helene since we started naming them. The 8th storm, note not hurricane, but tropical storm is always an H name. So the chances of a storm with an H name happening around the same time each year, is REALLY good. In fact, I looked it up and only 5-6 (depending on when you cut it off) of the H named storms for the last 30 years going back to the 90s, DIDN'T happen in September, but came earlier in August, and one in July.

I imagine they'll retire the name now. We used to not even recycle names. When we first started naming them it was Able, Baker, Charlie, etc. which is the military phonetic alphabet before the NATO standardization of Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, etc. That caused confusion.

Here are the planned names for the next 5 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_cyclone_naming#North_Atlantic_Ocean

u/brain_dead is an apt name. braid_dead, is in fact, retarded.

showing the possibility of 2 to 3 storms between Halloween and November 7

I mean, yeah... Hurricane season. I predict 2-3 tornados will develop within 100 miles of my location, in May 2025. No models needed.

And this is not what this video is claiming. He is using old footage to show a named storm (there isn't one yet). 420% Fake, and 69% gay.

Ya'll. Please. Please, please, please. There are ZERO active tropical storms or hurricanes in the Atlantic currently. This took 10 seconds to verify.

I don't know In2ThinAir, but their posts should be banned from GAW. This is 100% fabricated - why? who gains from this? Someone spent time writing a script, recording a voiceover, produced motion graphics to create a 100% fake video. It's not even based on something like 'there's a small storm in the gulf' which they've taken and extrapolated. It's 100% made up cut from whole cloth.

And then fucking stickied.

Roswell is a city of about 50k people you can very much visit. I think you're confusing it with something else.
