It's like those hoverboards from a few years ago. They took a well known sci-fi concept, stole the name for something that literally no one recognizes as the thing they think about when they hear the term. Except this time with "AI" an entire collapsing economy uses the new fake sci-fi crap to prop itself up and then the news breathlessly reports all the spurious claims about it as true.

Do not ask a question if you do not want to hear the answer...

Once again hoping these same people find out who the former owner of Trump's yacht was 👁️

Kind of a leap but: the Anti Empire Project with Justin Podur has a few recurring history series covering a world civilizations overview, colonization and the scramble for Africa, and the politics in Europe in the lead up to WW1 iirc. The hosts are cool and just some big old nerd ass academics (compliment). It's less well produced than blowback for sure, but they do a lot of research for each episode usually and can get really in depth on a topic.

I think they're in the same feed, but Guerilla History is a good one if you like RevLeft and want a history focused show cohosted by Breht.

Remember, everyone told him signing up for service was a dumb idea, and everyone in the service told him trying to become infantry was a dumb idea. His experiences don't exactly prove them wrong.

In the movie when everyone is signing up and the triple amputee recruiter says "the infantry made me the man I am today!" is literally all you need to know

Putting aside every other thing wrong with this bullshit: what the fuck are "excess" savings?

Hell yes, good news for once

This is almost the Party Boy bit from Jackass

He called the leader of Egypt a dictator to his face, through a translator fwiw.

Edit: ok it actually wasn't to his face. He called Sisi his favorite dictator before he arrived to an event, in front of diplomatic staff from Egypt
