So you run it by James Paterson, Inc. (or the estate of Tom Clancy or whoever fits best) get his name above yours and now you’re contracted to release new novels at an absolutely breakneck pace, but you have your foot in the door and can become the more famous writer who can release their own novels.

VP is required to be eligible to become president, so he’d have to become VP two years and one day into a later president’s term. Assuming that we’re letting constitutionality get in his way.

Well, they both increase at a rate of one day per day, so they’re kind of parallel lines, but since Trump said once day and Vova said three, I guess they can kind of cross after two or three years.

the war he promised to end in 24 hours… 93 days ago.

Pretty embarrassing, but still better than day 1155 of a three day operation.

Considering the now multiple cases of LLMs citing non-existent case law, I thought we already were. Seems like using the “there are only two R’s in strawberry” machine to do your job would potentially be grounds for losing your professional license.

Might never see courage from Congress, but you might see some van Spronsen/Mangioni(allegedly)-esque recklessness from certain corners of the population.

Those tracks up ahead in the distance look pretty muddy. They might not be running into any military resistance, but they are already facing off against an enemy that will soften them up for General Winter and Marshall Zukhov to break them: Rasputitsa.

I’m sure there’s some Geoguessr player who can tell you where there’s a Subway by a Hertz rental car across from a Speedway gas station, but a stroad with nationally available brands along it doesn’t narrow things down much.

Probably intending to mean intellectual property (Customs is their middle name, after all), but considering the shit they get up to as an institution, yikes.

Dog whistle? Or fog horn?

Look, with the tariffs going up but insufficient infrastructure to replace the imported goods, it’s only a matter of time before we have backyard steel mills. And with the spread of bird flu, you know they’re going to control it via ‘kill all the birds’.

For as much as they claim to hate Communist China, they’ll be doing Mao’s greatest hits in no time.

Two States Declared Themselves Bird-Flu Free. But What Does That Really Mean?

It means the Smash the Sparrows campaign was a huge success that will have no possible unintended consequences.
