I really need people outside of Seattle to know how much Krist Novoselic sucks
A screenshot of a Facebook post by Krist Novoselić: A new proposal would prohibit clearing encampments unless local government provides higher levels of accommodation for shelter. Our state's ruling party is attempting to codify what appears to be a lifestyle. There's no longer any expectation of personal accountability. Quoted post from Cascade Party Washington: WA legislature proposal out of touch with worsening chronic addiction homelessness - read now in The Summit (independent press of Cascade Party WA).

Reached out to Ed Martin to ask if he'd comprehended that this was satire, and asked him whether he's even seen Arrested Development before. Will report back if he responds.
Amazing admission. FakeNews is fading away. Quote Gene Parmesan @dsonoiki · Feb 5 I was hired by the Washington Post in 2017 to cover how Trump is bad and nobody likes him, particularly through the lens of homosexual communism Today I was laid off

Totally normal response to HS students staging a walkout.
Steven Porter @reporterporter · Feb 6 Two groups of anti-ICE demonstrators converged at UNH this afternoon. One came from the Community Church of Durham, the other from Oyster River High School (after a student walk-out). They marched and chanted about welcoming immigrants. Chalkboard 🇺🇸 @SentinelPosting I bet teachers offered them free grades and snacks. The Left is disgusting and they should be culled.

VC, founder, dumbass
@Nick_Davidov Asked Claude Cowork organize my wife's desktop, it stated doing it, asked for a permission to delete temp office files, I granted it, and then it goes "ooops" Turns out it tried renaming and accidentally deleted a folder with all of the photos my wife made on her camera for the last 15 years. All photos of kids, their illustrations, friends' weddings, travel, everything. It's not in trash, it was done via terminal It's not in iCloud, it already synced the new file structure. She didn't have Time Machine. Disc recovery tools can't see anything. I called Apple and they pointed me to a feature in iCloud allowing to retrieve files that were saved before but are no longer on iCloud Drive (they keep them for 30 days). I'm now watching it load tens of thousands of files. I nearly had a heart attack.

Just found an old note from my daughter in my bedside drawer.
Handwritten note on wide-lined paper. There’s a Windows Vista logo in 4 colors, then the text “Window’s Vista’s support ended on April 16th, 2017. Plus on that day it was Anniah’s [?] birthday!”

Please stop liking and reposting that Scott Horton guy, he’s plagiarizing other people’s posts and has been a menace on here for a while. Doesn’t respond to people either, just blocks critics.

The chuds found a FB post about a walkout today at my kids' high school here in Durham, and one of them said it was evidence of "why NC is at the bottom of the education chain."

I was wondering why the antenna on my birdfeeder camera kept coming loose.
Three eastern bluebirds, two with juvenile plumage and one with more complete blue back and head, on a camera birdfeeder. One bird is eating, one is perched on the solar panel behind the feeder, and the third is perched on the tip of the WiFi antenna.

They're Abrego-Garcia-ing a child -- punishing him because his very existence is inconvenient to them. It's gutter bigotry and petulant sadism all the way down.

It's fascinating how Epstein's tentacles tied together some of most destructive trends and factions in modern public life.

Email just sent out from ATF to federal firearms licensees. (Red HOAX text added by me, since their unannotated attachment is already causing confusion.)
ATF FFL ALERT - FFL NOTICE HOAX From: atffflalert@atf.gov This is an important message from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. We are aware of the “Notice of Enhanced Protection Policies for Homeland Security Agents” placed on an FFL’s door. We have confirmed with HSI this notice is a hoax. ATF is committed to working with our FFL partners. If you have any questions, please contact your local ATF office. See attached for an example of the hoax. Notice of Enhanced Protection Policies for Homeland Security Agents Constitutional rights are a privilege for American citizens, not a guarantee. The United States Government is committed to the protection of the brave government agents who safeguard our borders from the tyranny of foreign invaders, but recently those same agents have found themselves under assault from hostile internal adversaries. In order to better safeguard the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents during upcoming deployment actions in the Houston, Texas area, the United States Government is instituting a temporary suspension of the rights granted by the Second Ammendment[sic] of the United State Constitution. You and all associated employees are hereby required to implement the following policies: 1. Should an ICE officer report to your premises, you must immediately provide a full inventory and record of any and all firearms located on site, along with a log of any personnel with access to said firearms. Failure to comply or providing an inaccurate account may subject you to criminal prosecution under 18 USC § 1001. 2. Should you or any individuals located on your premises carry any firearms on their person, upon arrival of one or more ICE officers said individuals must immediately declare said firearms and peacefully surrender them to the agents). Failure to do so in a timely manner will be interpreted as a deliberate act of domestic terrorism, which may result in both prosecution and aggressive response by government officers. 2.[sic] This notice is to remain displayed on your premises until further instruction is received from the Department of Homeland Security. Removal of this notice will be considered destruction of government property and will result in prosecution under 18 USC § 1361 We appreciate your full cooperation and understanding during these challenging times, and are proud of the contributions of local communities to Make America Safe Again.

Here's the full post in the Star Tribune liveblog for posterity since it doesn't have a stable URL to link to:
Bullet hole raises questions about federal authorities' account of shooting Photographic evidence from the shooting scene of a Venezuelan man by federal agents last month in Minneapolis supports the account of witnesses there — and appears to undercut the narrative provided by federal officials. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has repeatedly claimed that an officer fired a single shot in self-defense during a violent encounter involving a shovel and a broom on Jan. 14, shortly after a man fled from a traffic stop during a targeted enforcement effort. But at a federal court hearing in St. Paul on Tuesday, an attorney for one of the men accused of assaulting that officer showed a federal judge and several reporters photographs on his laptop depicting a single bullet hole through the front door of the north Minneapolis home. Additional photographs show damage consistent with a bullet fragment lodged in a bedroom wall down the hallway — suggesting it traveled between a mattress and a portable crib in a room where several small children sleep. That supports what family members have said all along: A federal agent shot at them through the front door, striking 24-year-old Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis in the thigh, while they were inside the threshold of the residence.
