It's an interesting idea to have an AI psychiatrist or AI confessional where you can talk to it about anything at all in an air-gapped environment and then at the end you can push a button that completely wipes every trace of the conversation that's outside of your own mind. Could be beneficial.

    Just the other day I watched a neat video by the Feral Historian in which he argued the theory that the Mirror Universe is not actually a traditional "alternate timeline" that diverged at a particular point in history and just developed differently from there. He argues that it's a more amorphous psychoactive kind of place that is "recreated" whenever visitors enter it based on those visitors themselves. I rather liked it.

    As someone who utterly loathes Trump, I'm hoping he manages to get this eyesore built.

    America needs permanent, prominent reminders of what they did.

    In a socialist system the "wealthy cunts" are not in charge. If they are then the label "socialist" isn't really correct any more.

    Though in some circles the label "socialist" actually corresponds to "a political structure or philosophy that changes based on context but always means whatever I don't like", in which case I guess go ahead and use it. I find this definition to be somewhat less useful, however.

    If they're stored properly (locked in a safe, with the ammunition locked up separately somewhere else) then they're not particularly dangerous.

    I don't have any guns in my house, but if I did and they were properly stored I'd be far more concerned about someone grabbing a hammer or other tool from my workshop room and killing me with that instead.

    A mass migration won't happen until they actually do something tangible to drive it. And it'll have to be something pretty big, look at how services like Reddit continue to maintain their user base because for most people it's still working fine.
