I fully support Newsom's new law to ban creatine, unless you have an ID to buy it. There have been no known deaths or harms ever caused by creatine. But this move will prevent the first one from happening. Brilliant move.
California has passed a law requiring age verification to buy creatine starting January 1, 2027

Or you know you could try writing it yourself. A scary idea, probably won't work for those who would rather spend a ton of procrastinating with prompts versus writing it out.

Oh my GOD it’s exactly what I’ve been saying for months!
Sam Altman told Samsung executives AI demand has been "double counted" amid neocloud bubble concerns. He said only OpenAI and Anthropic drive major demand growth, warning of supply shocks and turbulence, but expects AI demand to surge long term. Source: fnnews h/t @jukan05

Palantir will be used to target right wingers, all thanks to Trump and JD Vance
Alex Karp now says that Palantir is progressive, he’s always been a Democrat, Trump went too far on immigration and his primary commitment is to economic justice. LMAOOOOOO

Republicans pose in their office with Israeli flags then wonder why they lost the Midterms 🤣
Every day, I hear from Americans who are sick and tired of changing their clocks back and forth. It’s time to pass my Sunshine Protection Act and lock the clock!

“Just deport all the illegals” is the right-wing version of “just take all the guns”. Not living in reality. The bell cannot be unrung, and you’d get something much worse in the effort.

On Monday, November 2, 2026, Shawn Jung, a father of two and husband to Alyson was viciously attacked by 2 off leash pit bulls. He was out for a run in Salem's Riverfront Park when the attack happened. The owner of the dogs is a homeless woman who frequents the area. She watched the attack happen, yelling profanities at Shawn before leaving him alone to fight for his life. After the attack, Shawn was gravely injured. He found the courage to stand up and walk to a nearby street to summon help. It is our understanding that nothing was done about this. There were no consequences for the woman, and her dogs were not put down. @SalemPoliceDept is endangering more citizens by not doing anything. @conservmillen @LarsLarsonShow  gofundme.com/f/care-and-hope…

Now that the blue wave is here, there’s no better time to be truly progressive — and bring back hand-wringing identity politics from 5 years ago and do absolutely nothing else

Rob Schneider is done pretending like Ron Paul now. He’s decided to embrace his new schtick which is acting like the ADL meets Mark Levin meets Bibi Netanyahu.

It’s like we’ve fallen into a time warp back to 2021. This is moral hysteria. It wouldn’t even be remotely justified if the girls really did make a racist gesture. But they didn’t. This is the kind of stuff we saw during peak woke at its most feverish and delusional.

Dario Amodei says cancer, Alzheimer’s, heart disease, and mental illness will be relics of the past in less than a decade, and that "we can create an age of miracles" “You know, if today we look at things like cancer, Alzheimer’s, heart disease, mental illness, these will be relics of the past in, I think, less than a decade." "And I believe that the company which gets the risks right will also be the company that has the license to operate that society trusts and society believes can build the benefits in the right way." "I think if we do this right, we can create an age of miracles where humanity is able to solve problems that have eluded us for millennia." "We have to make sure that all the risks, all the ways that things can go wrong with this technology, we very carefully address those risks as we bring the benefits, and as we have a viable business at the same time.”

Legendary Dipshit. A master of the craft. So many people said it was “different this time” and this is just the beginning of Masayoshi Son’s losses
NEW: Japanese billionaire Masayoshi Son was so swept up by the AI frenzy in 2025, he placed reservations for a large chunk of the market for gas power plant turbines. He overdid it. from me and @eliotwb for @WSJ: wsj.com/business/energy-oil/…
