Negligent motorist willfully disregards the safety of those around them, senselessly risks the lives of two cyclists by ramming into them with heavy machinery.
Your editor is a parasite.
There’s an argument to be made for Allah being God, whereas “god” would technically just be “lah” but that starts to play with the language in a really weird way. Either way the point stands.
At this point, holding them accountable, requires capital punishment.
I have a few holdings in a day trading account, during COVID I didn’t touch it. This time feels different, and I am very tempted to cut bait and run.
It is imperative that the consequences faced by Julius Streicher after the fall of the third reich, be doled out again. The threat of accountability and justice cannot be an idle one.
A bee (bumble I think) bumbles into some pinkish purple flowers on a bush. Pollen is clearly visible collecting on its rear legs as it hovers trying to collect nectar.
And now for a moment of peace. Pollinators worth protecting.
Someone argued that my vehement opposition to large scale LLMs is akin to folks who think nuclear power should be banned instead of regulated.
I disgree, nobody is seriously suggesting you put a reactor in your pocket. No, more what I'm doing is arguing you shouldn't drink radium.
I theorize his lack of aura is somehow tied to a duldrum of sorts in a quantum field. We should put him in a particle accelerator and measure this.
I would argue that the U.S. has had a significant problem with domestic terrorist organizations for decades. They’re called Police unions.
Okay, why was Surly Bikes kicked off of bsky? Near as I can tell the account here, more or less posted the same content as Surly's other social feeds, so what happened? Was it legit or not?
Nobody took this photo, this is AI generated garbage.
At some point, the violence in response to an exhaust choked atmosphere on a planet warming to dangerous levels, where governments are increasingly becoming surveillance states, is simply an act of self defense.
Gunshots are one form of violence, polluting the atmosphere, the water table, invading privacy, depriving people of their own livable communities is another, I would argue far more heinous form of violence.
Even when people couldn't keep track of all the horrible things being done in the shadows to exploit them, they could still, until now anyway, find moments of rest. That no-longer holds.
They can't even go fishing, because that costs money (license and equipment) and due to lax regulation and enforcement regarding pollution, the fish wouldn't be safe to eat anyway.
Your predecessors have enacted policies from the municipal to the federal level that have tried to squeeze too much blood from a stone. People are hungry, they are cold, and they are struggling to breathe pollution choked air.
The people at the town hall clearly did not want that data-center. Your job was to oppose it, you didn't, you endorsed it, then the entirely predictable violence came. Was it entirely your fault? No. You were just the last domino.
Repeatedly selling out your constituents whose lives never get better, while constantly speaking platitudes that are as tone-deaf and flat as "Your safety is our priority!" or "Your call is very important to us!" will, at some point, end in violence.
[sigh] Violence is the protest you can no-longer ignore. And since those in power have ignored the pleas of those they represent for so long, then the current increase, such as the shooting of Ron Gibson's home, is entirely predictable, and best described as the consequences of their own actions.
Dear @kaine.senate.gov and @markwarner.bsky.social it's past time to remove Schumer as Senate Minority Leader. It's clear his loyalty to Israel, an adversarial nation, has clouded his judgement and he is unfit for duty, incapable of representing his constituents, and a threat to national security.
I have always advocated for calm. Not because you're overreacting, or that things aren't that bad. You aren't and they are. But to remain calm is to remain focused, and by remaining focused you are less likely to concede defeat, or to miss what you aim at.
As someone who's shot Nikon for years, I want to argue, but honestly their super-telephotos have been a bit of a let-down. Technically capable, and the 600mm PF lens is pretty light for a 600mm, but I do wish it were just a tad sharper.
I have vague memories of this existing and watching it on Channel 3 with rabbit ears (which in my area was ABC). Until now I have wondered if it was something I had mis-remembered as a kid. Nope, it was real.
So to sum this all up, the "Justice For Democracy PAC" is a front for Peter Thiel, whom is a genocidal asshole with paranoid delusions about the antichrist. Yeah, I'm gonna vote yes on those maps, and so should you. And now I'm gonna go make my morning coffee.
When their donors are identified, it's classics like the fucking Koch brothers, or fossil fuel companies, or pharmaceurtical lobbying groups that want to keep life saving medical treatment priced out of reach (such as PhRMA)

I don't fuckin' think so. Up next is the American Future Fund, and if you thought Per Aspera was bad, these folks are even worse. As they disclose no information about where they receive their funding from.
Peter Thiel, someone on the record as saying that democracy needs to be abolished, someone whose companies have unabashedly led to the death and persecution of minorities, a white supremacist who idolizes the H-Man himself, suddenly cares about minority representation?
This group has invoked imagery of the Jim Crow era and directly misrepresented Barack Obama's position on the referendum (Barack's own response is to vote yes on the new maps) trying to get people to oppose a redistricting effort which aims to ensure nationwide balance in political representation?
Who are these two mega-donors, Per Apsera and American Future Fund? Turns out, these are not great people, let's dive into Per Aspera first. Per Apsera is a shady group individuals funded by none other than Peter Thiel himself!

What's also interesting, is despite having sent out an aggressive mailer campaign, spammed text messages, and now running a campaign on youtube of all places, there are no large expenditure reports?
