You know it’s Monday when you wake up at 5am, cannot go back to sleep, and, knowing you have to wake up at 6 anyway to catch a train, force yourself out of bed on a frigid autumn morning at 0540 to get ready for the day. Then, when you get out the door to catch an earlier train than you originally planned, your Uber arrives late, gets stuck in traffic, and drops you off at the station JUST as your train pulls into view.
Having caught said train, you then travel a further 3 hours for a client meeting, then take a two-hour trip back to the city in cold and miserable weather, and finally end up slumped in a chair at a hotel, too tired to think, but trying hard to get another Monday poast out the door in time.
If this sounds like the lyrics of that JETHRO TULL classic, “Rocks on the Road”, well, it’s not far off. It is merely A Daye In the Lyfe of Ye Olde Didacte.
Nonetheless, you get to reap the benefits, because it is time for another Great Mondaydact Browser Killer. And this one is a truly collaborative effort, because both The Male Brain and LRFotS RobertW pitched in a whole hell of a lot of material this week.
It is good to have friends, after all. You could say… friendship is magic. And, as we all know:
#BasedTucker is Based
By the way, Ryan Salame recently started his prison sentence, and poasted about it on LinkedIn. The results were… hilarious, to say the least.
Dawn of Battle
The Male Brain has a whole buttload (which is an actual unit of measure, as I may have pointed out before) of stuff for us this week. We start with one from Benny Johnson about how you turn a libtard into a MAGAsaurus:
It is true. T-Rex IS a gigantic narcissist – as is the case with just about any Godzilla Alpha.
It is also true that T-Rex is, as a result, pathologically incapable of allowing himself to fail – even though he does, often and spectacularly. He simply has the relentless drive to keep pushing himself to succeed – because, again, that is the case with just about any Godzilla Alpha.
Moving on – one from Marketing Monster about how the coin scam in Better Call Saul actually works, and how it applies to modren marketing:
Caine Ardayfio has one for us about how someone’s Abominable Intelligence-powered eyewear can reveal all sorts of sensitive details about you:
Here is an interesting one about the recent Iranian missile attack on Israel – you will need to sign into Google Drive to view this.
Moon has a great one about the terrifying predictions made by Minority Report – the movie, based on the short story by Philip K. Dick:
Personally, I think the short story is better – I read it shortly after I watched the movie, and I found its economy of words and frenetic pace to be quite impressive. But the movie is pretty darn good.
Andy Y Jiang explains how the flat-earth crowd of wingnuts actually ended up helping disprove their own theory:
Ali Spagnola shows you how to build your very own Bouldermobile – as we used to see in The Flintstones:
PsycHacks has been killing it of late, and today’s video about why a woman’s shit-testing gets WORSE over time, is no exception:
The Market Exit says meritocracy is a nonsense concept:
Mind-Expanding Drugs
From LRFotS RobertW:
The Fat Electrician presents Arizona Tea, a company which has told inflation to get bent for 3 decades and built a family empire along the way:
Solomon wrote there is nothing new under the Sun – Gen-Z is out to prove it:
The story of every recipe search in 2024:
If you require your kids to eat Lunchablea, you should feel bad. They sure do after eating them. Mega multinational food conglomerate Kraft Heinz does not. One of their factories in North Texas I work with had to quadruple production coming out of COVID. Somehow parents can’t be arsed to make a sandwich for the kid anymore:
Death Smiles At Us All…
Stupid-sounding video title, but sensible advice, actually.
Poli-Ticking Off
Judge Andrew Napolitano talks to the one and only Pepe Escobar about the realignment of the Moose Limb world against the West, as a result of the Gazacaust, and what the Russians are thinking and doing:
LTC Daniel Davis talks to his former boss, and legendary war hero, DA KERNEL HIZZSELF, about how T-Rex’s interest in talking with The Putin is actually a GOOD Thing:
Mark Dice watched Heels-Up Harris make an utter fool of herself on Stephen Colbert’s awful late-night show, so the rets of us don’t have to:
The very-thoroughly-married couple at Redacted go into the possibilities of the government owning their very own Weather Dominator:
PJW reckons the Daemoncrats are getting rather worried, now that they see just how awful their candidate is this time around:
Of course, we heard similar things in 2020, and look what happened then. Personally, I think the Daemoncrats are simply waiting to calculate how many ballots they need to manufacture to ensure victory in November.
Дед Сварливый Говорит!
Grandpa Grumpuss grumps, grumpily, about the rapid disintegration of the American proxy in Banderastan:
Timeo Danaos Et Donna Ferentes…
The good gentlemen of The Duran explain how the FUSA is preparing to abandon 404 to its fate:
Bad Medicine
Dr. John Campbell points to a rather interesting case of a ‘Strayan MP who wants the Australian Chief Beardy Todger, or whatever his name is, to suspend the building of a Pfizer pfactory in their country:
You know how we always say that, in Australia, LITERALLY EVERYTHING WANTS TO KILL YOU AND EAT YOUR EYEBALLS FOR JUJUBEES!!!!!?
Well, in this case, it is literally true – why else would anyone want to build a factory to produce mRNA not-vaxxes there?
Dr. Suneel Dhand is fed to the back teeth with the corruption of his profession and its adherents – and rightly so, to be honest:
Warriors of Faith
Tha Dizzle points out the simple fact that criticising Mo’Lester the Paedophile Profit should be second nature to any real Christian:
I still cannot quite believe that, in this day and age, Christians think there is any reason to turn down the chance to criticise Izzlam. Back when the Muzzies were running around beheading anyone who disagreed with them, sure, there were reasons to keep quiet – but today, thanks to the power of TEH INNARWEBZ, we have all the tools we need to smash through their lies. That is part of the reason why they face such a colossal “avalanche of apostasy” – because they can see for themselves just how badly they have been lied to all their lives.
Chris At Speaker’s Corner reviews the very weird life and times of a clearly crazy Gamma-Muzzie named MENJ:
Sam Shamoun takes a wrecking ball to the Koran, and therefore to an Izzlamist’s faith:
Manly Men of Manliness
LRFotS RobertW writes in with a passle of great stuff for this week’s segment. First up – what was Luke up to in his travel dialogue? Like Heiser hammered home, you have to understand the context of the biblical authors to understand the Bible.
Second, why did Jesus say this? Because God desires the heart of a man over all else.
And when it comes to manly SKILLZ – flat tire on your mower? Fetch thee a rope and a screwdriver.
Bro, do you even cook? There’s going to be a process improvement for you in here!
Step away from the thirst traps, find new life:
Joker from Better Bachelor reports on a weird – and actually basically fake – Gen-Z thing called “hagmaxxing”:
This started out as a meme on – where else? – the Chans, and then, inevitably, numpties in the whore-media started to take it seriously and tried to dunk on it. All I can say is, that is an epic self-own.
The “lavender marriage” thing, though, is NOT a self-own. It is a real thing, and a very stupid one.
Via The Male Brain – Legion of Men expands on this “hagmaxxing” thing:
Burn Paedowood to the Ground
Midnight’s Edge explains that Amazog has learned ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from the colossal failure of DEM RANGZ O’ POWAH!!!:
Gary from Nerdrotic gives a retrospective of Season 2 of DEM RANGZ!!!, which apparently will kill you from alcohol poisoning if you turn watching it into a drinking game:
The Critical Drinker shovels dirt on top of the grave of DEM RANGZ:
Reading Too Much Into Things
Your Science is F***ing Weird moment of the week is actually more about MAFF, and consists of an interview with one of the world’s absolute best mathemagicians, Terrence Tao, about what Abominable Intelligence means for the field of pure maths:
Tao: The classic idea of math is that you pick some really hard problem, and then you have one or two people locked away in the attic for seven years just banging away at it. The types of problems you want to attack with AI are the opposite. The naive way you would use AI is to feed it the most difficult problem that we have in mathematics. I don’t think that’s going to be super successful, and also, we already have humans that are working on those problems.
The type of math that I’m most interested in is math that doesn’t really exist. The project that I launched just a few days ago is about an area of math called universal algebra, which is about whether certain mathematical statements or equations imply that other statements are true. The way people have studied this in the past is that they pick one or two equations and they study them to death, like how a craftsperson used to make one toy at a time, then work on the next one. Now we have factories; we can produce thousands of toys at a time. In my project, there’s a collection of about 4,000 equations, and the task is to find connections between them. Each is relatively easy, but there’s a million implications. There’s like 10 points of light, 10 equations among these thousands that have been studied reasonably well, and then there’s this whole terra incognita.
There are other fields where this transition has happened, like in genetics. It used to be that if you wanted to sequence a genome of an organism, this was an entire Ph.D. thesis. Now we have these gene-sequencing machines, and so geneticists are sequencing entire populations. You can do different types of genetics that way. Instead of narrow, deep mathematics, where an expert human works very hard on a narrow scope of problems, you could have broad, crowdsourced problems with lots of AI assistance that are maybe shallower, but at a much larger scale. And it could be a very complementary way of gaining mathematical insight.

Slayergod Remy aka MintBlitz does his thing while running through a wish list of what he wants to see in the next game:
He probably won’t get it, because Microsoft and especially 343i these days are much more focused on MUH DUHVERSITEEZ!!! than on producing good games.

One here from LRFotS RobertW – if you could solve your friend’s problem with a well placed hammer smash, should you?
Meme Warfare
We start with some epic dank memes from The Male Brain:
And now, as LRFotS RobertW would say:
In fact, he supplied a whole passel of memes for precisely that purpose:
And a few more from me:

Gym beast props this week go to Kyle Tiger Kirvay, who claims to be the world’s strongest bodybuilder:
I think Stan “Rhino” Efferding might have a thing or three to say about that claim, though…
And from LRFotS RobertW – from the iron mongers among us, a heartfelt reminder

From LRFotS RobertW – Ana Vidovic, Croation prodigy born in 1980, so she was blessed to grow up before the Internet. She finishes an intense 55-min set. Asks for a request, settles on Asturias. She demurs momentarily for maybe not having practiced… then crushes out of the park.
Rock Out With Your Glock Out
Thot Shots
And finally, here is your Instathot to get the week off to a suitably pumped-up start. This is Frida Haro, age 23 (supposedly) from somewhere in Mexico. No idea what she does, and don’t really care either.
OK, that’s all, back to work now, lads.

They’re getting better with the fake airbags. This week’s thot almost had me fooled.
I don’t really get why women do that because it’s not for us men. I’d pick a natural B or C over a fake D or DD 999 times out of 1,000. I hate when things violate the laws of physics (gravity, in this case).
Then again, it’s all about the presentation.
