I meant to say she wants Trump to *peacefully* send in troops to *peacefully* overthrow Maduro.

I wouldn't doubt this happened. She wants Trump to send troops to overthrow Maduro and she's smart enough to know how to convince him to do that.

Every day we get at least one headline that makes you say "There is absolutely no way that is true" but it turns out when you read the article it's even worse.

I was at TJ Maxx the other day and watched, in succession, as Maserati, Porsche, and Lexus SUVs pulled in. These would have been considered amazing vehicles just 20 years ago, now they're just family cars. US automakers decided to stop manufacturing entry level cars b/c they weren't selling as well.

I've been asking this for months, and nobody on Bluesky has been willing to help me. I have yet to receive my checks from George Soros for all the protesting I've been doing. Who can I contact? I'm sure this is just a clerical error but I would really like to get this resolved before 10/18. Thanks!

The other day a student asked me about the prevalence of insider trading in prediction markets. I now have an answer.

When he first ran more R's hated him than liked him. The rest came around once it was clear he was going to win the nomination. If the economy tanks or something really undeniably awful surfaces from the Epstein files then I bet about 40% of the party will turn on him & deny they ever liked him.

RFK Jr speak: throw in a scientific sounding word that's kinda close but not right, while you denigrate someone else's intelligence.

Well, here's my take. It mentions old-timey prospectors if you're into that sort of thing.

Thanks to Pam Bondi, we may have a better idea of why Trump is so terrified of the 'Epstein files'

It was a performance for the ages, and not in a good way.

I appreciate Wired's reporting, but they must get half their revenue from Amazon links, given how much they push that. Did like that they had a column today with non-amazon deals, so at least they are aware that there are Bezos boycotters in their readership.
