My favorite tyrant joke: a man comes every day and peers at the front page of the newspaper without buying it.
The newspaper vendor says, "what are you looking for?"
"An obituary."
"Obituaries aren't on the front page."
"This one will be."

Hegseth’s Pentagon “renaming” these bases after obscure veterans with the same names as the Confederates the bases were originally named for has all the subtlety of a school bully putting his hand in your face and yelling “I’m not touching you! I’m not touching you!”

related to this a lot of people in the pundit class need to learn how to just be annoyed by someone or something without turning it into What’s Wrong With America
i am fascinated by how nate silver turns everything he doesn’t like into a bespoke ideology. it’s not that he is annoyed by HCR, it is that she is a dreaded “ism” responsible for everything he doesn’t like about the democratic party. same with bluesky.

My plan is to call a Waymo from the Carbon Athletic Club. If it can successfully make its way there /maybe/ it is technology worth giving a chance.
Waymo's self-driving cars are coming to Detroit. We met with them yesterday to discuss bicycle & pedestrian safety -- and how they could help us improve road safety. They're now mapping our city infrastructure with drivers behind the wheel before going driverless sometime in 2026.

Guys it’s not just that they want to remove Abrego Garcia from this country. They could probably remove him to Costa Rica.
They want to deport him to somewhere that will kill and/or torture him. That’s the issue.
