The only video game I've ever played was Hong Kong Mahjong by Nine Dragons Software: the only computer version of the actual game I've ever seen, and played with Cantonese Old-Style rules. Not into horror at all because we actually live in an American Horror Story (Myrtle Snow still rules).

Donald Trump is sending $40 billion to Argentina. I want to send America's seniors an extra $200 a month.

The cost of everything from groceries to utilities to health care is up.

My new bill is an emergency lifeline for seniors struggling to survive in Trump's economy.

White House restricts media access in the West Wing

The administration said it’s a matter of security, but the new rule appears to be part of a larger effort to restrict the press.

This little gem buried in the story is just... holy shit

And it was drug dealers themselves whose
tips alleging that law enforcement officers
were demanding bribes for protection led
to the FBI investigation, Joyner said.

Here’s another way Trump’s “deal” with China was a disaster.

He negotiated away export controls that his own experts had said were critical to protecting our national security.

China got exactly what it wanted. So much for America First.

Remember when Texas Dems broke quorum & in response TX AG Paxton & Gov Abbot demanded their arrest & removal from office?

Under Speaker Johnson, Congress has been in session only 12 of last 100 days, absent since Sept 19, & he still won't swear in Rep-elect Grijalva.

Rules for thee but not for me.

Annual Hachiya persimmon PSA!

Enjoy these persimmons AFTER they soften—so soft, you may think they're bad. Firm Hachiya persimmons are horribly astringent. You'll never forget the day you bite into an unripe one. But after they ripen, they taste like candy. (Eat squat Fuyus any time.)

We don’t need the Heritage Foundation’s opinion on nuclear testing. They should go read a Bible instead and try to figure out why their master plan is to starve children and take away health care from the elderly.

One report estimates that, in areas near data centers, wholesale electricity costs have risen by more than 200 per cent in the past five years. Rates will probably continue to increase to meet demand.

Inside the Data Centers That Train A.I. and Drain the Electrical Grid

A data center, which can use as much electricity as Philadelphia, is the new American factory, creating the future and propping up the economy. How long can this last?
