What a day...
Spent over 2 hours fixing a server side email issue.
Pretty bad when I end up solving it before 2 tech support folks.
I had an idea what it was, but the techs didn't try my solution until I forced it from my end.
So now I am slightly pissed off and have a crashing headache.

Friendly reminder: "I was just following orders" didn't protect those who faced the Nuremberg trials who had once dragged crying women and children from their homes from the consequences of their actions.

If ICE comes to your home, do not open the door without a warrant. Stay calm. Documented or not, you do have rights.

Hey Disney; I see that you’re trying to entice Canadians to visit. Your country is becoming dangerous and unstable. I don’t want my money to support Trump. Hard pass on that.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Dear MAGA, do you yet see the problem with a small group of very wealthy men (most of all including Trump who have never known 'want') ruling a huge mass of ordinary people?

When, in history has this ever worked out for the ordinary people like you?
