I love how they are just out there, openly admitting to war crimes. The next administration will have a great time with this.

Fuck you, @americanair.bsky.social ! You cancelled our flight with no given reason with less than 9 hours to go and no time to make other arrangements.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

I feel like Musk continuing to spend millions of dollars to blow up rockets is a metaphor for something.

Why are so many conservatives ignorant of the lessons in the Bible they love to quote so much?

I write this to steel those waiting to fight that we must be prepared for the long haul.

More history: 1) Bus protests began in 1950, 5 years before Rosa Parks. The cases of those arrested lingered for years before the summer of 1955. 2) SCOTUS’ 1956 decision only applied to Montgomery. It would take 6 more years to finally end bus segregation throughout the rest of the south.

Trump administration directs 70% cut to internal OPM staffing, programs By Monday, all OPM offices are expected to give political leaders staffing charts with plans for an initial 30% reduction for both feds and contractors.

One example of how this fucks things up. If you have a federal pension, the staffing shortage that will undoubtedly exist when it is time to compute those annual annuity's means you won't get paid on time.

Just one very small example of how this is going to hurt a lot of people.

A new lamb and goat born this weekend. Just some “awwww” for y’all.

I still think the greatest missed opportunity so far this century was not including a scene where the victims had to play the classic game Twister in any of the Human Centipede films.

Only in the USA does a man succumb after a 7 year battle with his health insurance only to have his spouse start a 7 year battle with his life insurance company.

tl;dr: Relying on AI tools because you lack the actual skills or talent will keep you from developing the skills or talent.

"The findings revealed a significant negative correlation between frequent AI tool usage and critical thinking abilities, mediated by increased cognitive offloading."

These pissing contests are why I'm happy to be out of the field.

I'm reading this just as soon as I finish this article, which is only related insofar as it points out how technological tools are undermining humanity.

I would cancel my WaPo subscription if I hadn’t already done so for the other shitty reasons they gave me.

Elon Musk accused of censoring conservatives on X who disagree with his immigration stances The claims came after Elon Musk was involved in a public feud with some Republicans over immigration.

But he’s pro-free-speech, right?

I’m thinking two generations, but it will be fixed. We make more forward progress for every setback we encounter. Lately I’ve been reading about the rise of the KKK in circa 1915 after they had all but disappeared. One administration allowed unprecedented growth and it took eons to get to 1964.

America should be rebranded - “Taliban West”

This Company Makes Billions By Rationing Your Health Care YouTube video by More Perfect Union

Here is a short video (13:30) produced over a year ago which covers the history and behavior of United Healthcare. It explains succinctly why so many people have zero sympathy for its murdered CEO and even praise the assassin.

After UnitedHealthcare CEO’s Killing, Americans Express Frustration With Health Insurance Industry The shooting death of a UnitedHealthcare executive in Manhattan has unleashed Americans’ frustrations with an industry that often denies coverage and reimbursement for medical claims.

The hatred is deserved, even if you abhor the violence.

I will never not tear up at the EL train realization scene at the end of "Trains, Planes, and Automobiles."

John Candy's "Marie has been dead for eight years." guts me every time.

Happy to read the news. Best to you both.

If Musk were to be assassinated, I would be happy to contribute to whomever’s defense fund.

Putting these private citizens lives at risk is inexcusable.

The answer to the question of whether anyone is above the law is a definitive “yes”.

I used to think that Russia had the best bread in the world, given how long the lines were for it.

I would not mind more Tiedriches, but you’re doing a great job already.

It’s a civic responsibility IMO.
