What meaning of "blow" does he mean?

Is anyone else frustrated with the #NYTimes app? Lately, when I read an article and return to the feed, the app takes me back to the top of the feed. There used to be a delay, so I could resume scrolling. The app is frustrating to use. While the price just went up!

Shhh! My daughter, who grew up in San Francisco, was just accepted to UofT. The weather is fine. 🥶

How Did DOGE Disrupt So Much While Saving So Little?

www.nytimes.com/2025/12/23/u... It bothers me that this article includes program cuts as savings. "Efficiency" means accomplishing the same goals with less cost. Instead they cut programs that Congress thought important. For example, cutting USAid reduced spending but also cost many lives.

You called it. I half expected the delegates to have big buckets of popcorn in their laps.

I have yet to see an argument that gerrymandering can backfire. If X party gerrymanders, they are spreading X voters across more seats. At an extreme some seats may shift from, say, 75% X voters to 55%. If there is a 10 point shift to party Y, X could lose all their seats.

I was expecting Kid Rock and Ted Nugent.

Is there any chance or any way the lower courts can or will revolt against these supreme court rulings? When does this shit stop? #SCOTUS

I agree. I am considering switching back to Independent until the Dems can find a leader and their message. We need to see wartime leadership.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

San Francisco #NoKings

The guidelines should include safety training. 12 year olds on eBikes that can do 30 mph, but they live by pedestrian rules, are a menace to themselves, pedestrians, and motorists.

#NYTimes has to get a spine and stop calling these "deportations". Without due process this is kidnapping and maybe human trafficking.

"urge". Wimps.

OMFG

I support bookstore.app. #bookstote I am glad they offer ebooks while supporting independent book stores. I support booksinc.net

Trump Officials Blame Mistake for Setting Off Confrontation With Harvard An official on the administration’s antisemitism task force told the university that a letter of demands had been sent without authorization.

Now Trump's attack on Harvard was a mistaken email?? I think we are learning our founding fathers did not anticipate complete incompetence in governance. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/b...

Will IOC consider moving the Olympics? Might FIFA move the World Cup? Hitler faced that risk with 1936 Berlin Olympics. Almost got moved but for US support.

That violates the Federal Records Act. As if law and order still matters.

At what point do they distinguish between US-born citizens versus Naturalized citizens?

Creative signs at the Hands Off rallys are evidence of that. Even I made a 2-sided sign! I am far from artsie.

Remember that Gretzky is tRump's buddy, so just one step removed from being Putin's buddy.

Great turnout to protest in San Francisco today. Creative signs. #HandsOff #SF #SanFrancisco

#DonMcmillan is hillarious for geeks

Is there an FAA to halt flights? How much is this costing taxpayers?

Maybe FBI should investigate. Oh, wait. Forget it. Sigh.

When can someone in congress call out the "walks like a duck, talks like a duck" with Trump's allegence to Russia? So many dots connected. How many does it take? #Russia #RussianPuppet Have we seen any counter facts? None.

DOGE has yet to give cost-benefit arguments for their cuts. They might be justified if we were paying for someone to do nothing. But in most cases the cuts will lead to losses, either immediate or down the road. Eg, fire a food inspector and then pay to treat food poisoning cases in 6 months.

Maple Leafs Fans Step In And Sing American National Anthem After Singer's Microphone Cuts Out YouTube video by SPORTSNET

This sums up the change in the world view of the US under Trump. Recall Canadian hockey fans a year ago singing the US anthem. m.youtube.com/watch?v=R18h... Contrast that with the reaction this weekend. youtu.be/K3GuPv0r_cA?... #OhCanada
