Welcome to The Hub. This is our welcoming tribe dedicated to introducing yourself, meeting new people, and learning about new tribes.
Happy 2026! Late last year, I published an audiobook version of my novel 'Land of the Losers'. If you like books but don't have the time to read, this one is meant for you. Check it out: www.the-niceguy.com/book/audiobook.html
Naturally, the e-book and hard-cover are also available: www.the-niceguy.com/book/

@SwarmShawarma Ha, I was actually looking up some stuff about my move to Thailand and I came across multiple Reddit posts full of men coping with each other that they weren’t just bank accounts for Thai women they’d picked up while they worked out there.
I’ve never earned enough to be considered in that way, but I guess I’ll have to wise up on that front.
Incorrect. @Typo-MAGAshiv is the fag and he'll go full Shrek on anyone who says otherwise.
It's the more accurate term for what's being generally marketed as "AI" despite being absolutely nothing of the sort.
Chat GPT, Gemini, Grok, etc.; they're all essentially just more fancy search algorithms. There's nothing remotely resembling even a simulacra of actual intelligence in any of them.
One may argue I'm perhaps being somewhat pedantic, and one wouldn't be entirely off base in doing so, but calling what we have now artificial intelligence is rather like conflating a water wheel and the Hoover Dam.
@MentORPHEUS You can run a sanity check on events then.
Is ICE performing a legally mandated task? Yes.
Is it the same task they've been mandated with since before Trump? Yes.
Is illegal immigration illegal? Yes.
Does anybody except citizens have a right to be here? No.
What's different this time? Orange man bad and protesters getting themselves in front of guns being surprised when they go pew pew.
@Typo-MAGAshiv no you see it's different now. It's slow on purpose!
I realize how silly that sounded when I typed it, but I genuinely mean it. If you are taking 1+ minutes to load pages you got caught in my mom's trap
But don't obstruct and interfere with law enforcement doing their job.
Here's the crux of the MAGA vs rest of us POV. You see legit law enforcement doing THAT job. Others see an illegitimate Gestapo like force under control of the executive, building a power and control structure that will get used against dissenters to a much more nefarious regime to come. If you're wrong about the legitimacy of ICE, time is not a luxury on your side to wait till the power grab passes a point of no return.
