PECKERWOOD'S WEEKLY LUNOCRACY POST! For the Week of 8/04/2025

The countdown begins! Only 3 years and 6 months are left in Dump's Presidential term. A mere 15 months and 6 days are left till the midterms, which can potentially kneecap the remainder Dump's Presidency going forward. But do you think this will actually happen? What with voter ennui, illegal redistricting and the failure of "youth" to even bother showing up at the polls (the kids are not alright)? I'm optimistic by nature, but even I'm doubtful.

In the meantime, here are some horrifying and hilariously horrifying stories you might have missed this past week.

1. Disabled voters aren't known to be MAGA devotees, so MAGA is planning ahead. MORE HERE.

2. Geoffrey Hinton, an AI pioneer, says there's a 10-20% chance that AI technology "will end in human extinction." That's not good, right? MORE HERE.

3. Speaking of AI, why did AI break up with the sushi chef? It said he had too many raw emotions. Oh, hahahahahaha! Also, be afraid. Be very afraid. MORE HERE.
