The Interstellar Union for Conservation of Nature is disappointed to once again conclude that, despite massive habitat destruction, reckless use of pesticides, and the removal of hunting limits, all members of the family Scrungaloidia are still classified LC (Least Concern) for extinction.

a skilled ER nurse with a deep sense of civic responsibility is exactly the kind of person you want carrying a firearm.
every ICE employee should be barred from touching anything deadlier than a butter knife for the rest of their natural lives.

kavanaugh not beating the allegations that he’s a dumbass
Brett Kavanaugh (September 2025): The facts and how they relate to the law don’t matter. Assume ICE and other federal forces always act with integrity, always respect rights, and consistently impose minimal burden.
Brett Kavanaugh (December 2025): Should I not have done that? Was that wrong?

Kavanaugh in a footnote in today's opinion says "the officers must not make interior immigration stops or arrests based on race or ethnicity."

Yup! I'd break out a bunch of wargaming minis, a D&D battlemap, and run out movement math and combats with paper and pencil. Absolute nightmare.

This was the coolest shit. Going through the logs Kara shared and then testing the fully functional program was the highlight of the game's back half. Felt like dead-eyed officers optimizing the sacrifice of your friends/planning horrific bloodshed in a war room. Huge props to Kara.
For @samsorensen.bsky.social's #OVER/UNDER I created WEATHERVANE, an in-universe themed combat simulator. Using it, our faction was able to predict the outcome of any battle with a high degree of confidence. It helped us price mercenary contracts and go into any combat knowing the expected outcomes.
