You heard him, boys. We've held out for a thousand pages now, we can keep this going chilly until the election.

Thousand? Got 601 here...

lolwut dude?


Ohio is getting really close. Donald seems to have Florida in the bag, but ohio could be really interesting.


Yeah, it sort of looks like at least some Rubio voters are going over to Kasich, but Rubio only pleaded people to do that like a day ago.

I'm sure Rubio would love it if Kasich voters went to him, but even if you added all of Kasich voters to Rubios in the polls from the last week or so (or maybe a smaller period of time), it still wouldn't guarantee that he wins. A slightly better chance, yes, but it'd be all over the place like it is now instead of a trend like we're starting to see in Ohio.

NEVER! Cry havoc and unleash the flames of postwars (or something like that...)
I think it'll be hard to stay frosty in the summer once the reconstructed Bernie Bros become Hillary's paramilitaries (Hill's Angels?) and are fighting running Street battles with Trump's Redcaps.
Oh my droogies, it'll be a lovely bit of the old ultraviolence, with the shoom and the tolchoking millicents...

That's a guff. The yahoody's boyos will come round horrorshow, and they'd rather bitva with the gromky bratchny's shaika than a gruppa of cheenas and blackfellows.


I fully support making all future debates in Nadsat.

It makes me wonder... Let's say that Lockheed gets their fusion trailers working in like 10 years, and 3D printers/automated assembly lines get really, really good over the same timeline. Let's be conservative and say 2036.

A small town of some 10,000 or so can have a trailer for power and a small warehouse for industrial goods. Food from GMOs and water (easy to get via cheap-energy coastal distilleries) are not too tough to get. A huge number of services are automated, too. All vehicles, the majority of farming.... I wonder what interstate trade would look like...

You should read Daemon and Freedom TM, two Daniel Suarez novels that discuss that idea.

Afaik, Trumps nascent Brownshirts call themselves Lion's Guard, after the mediocre performance of Trump's SS detail when the crazy beardo rushed the stage.

But yeah a new civil war will be interesting! With this time, nuclear weapons! Hope your city is gerrymandered the right way!

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Yeah, I don't think the "Lion's Guard" moniker is going to stick. Sounds too royalist. Eagle Guard, maybe, but then that plays into the Nazi symbology even more. Redcaps seems harmless enough and functionally descriptive.

Eagle Guard also plays into Roman symbology, actually, it'd play into the symbology of a bunch of cultures. Not sure how it'd play into nazi symbology since the eagle/hawk was already part of the German Coat of Arms.

Is that how Trump maintains his hairstyle? It would make sense - I'm sure that stuff isn't cheap, and he's said he spends quite a lot of money on it.
