Why am I working so hard on this
I teach, I used to do research
Sometimes I post things here
I hope Delta, American, and United are happy, because everyone hates them anyway

Every time I hear Hegseth I am stunned he's got such a whiny weak voice.
Add a dose of propaganda to your morning coffee.. This smells of Russian-like “special operation”

With all the shit that's happening it's important to remember that even if there's no way to stop the Nazis from destroying democracy, they're not going to be able to enjoy their victory for very long before global warming destroys civilization

It would be *awesome* if Trump finishes his ballroom just as the next pandemic gets started, and he has his first event, everyone attending gets infected, and the end scene is like when the colony collapses in 28 Weeks Later.

This is awful, but every minute they waste on something totally irrelevant and useless is a minute they can't spend on something that would be destructive because these are not competent people capable of multi-tasking

Plus it's hysterically funny they are doing this
EPA Commissioner Lee Zeldin announces his agency is launching a major investigation into the right-wing conspiracies about chemtrails and weather manipulation to get to the bottom of it.

Feel like Aaron Goldsmith, Rick Rizz, and Gary Hill Jr. are allowed to call Raleigh the Big Dumper, but not the Fox Sports people. It's a Seattle thing.

I'm not saying Vought is collaborating with evil reptilian space aliens, he simply looks like he would be totally down to collaborate with evil reptilian space aliens

This is a great thread, except the Trump administration sure is acting like there's something wrong with what Homan did, like maybe the $50k pre-election payment is just the tip of a much larger iceberg
So. Would there be legitimate reasons for the Trump administration to decide not to charge Tom Homan for accepting a Cava bag with $50k in cash in exchange for the promise to influence the Trump administration?

Actually, yes.

You know, guess they should have considered this as they all giggled while they torpedoed Clinton in 2016
One funny thing to keep in mind is the FBI has an intense culture of organizational pride and I don't think it's a stretch to say replacing leadership with a bunch of podcasters who can't get through a sentence without saying some of the dumbest shit imaginable is unpopular with the shoeshiners.

It feels like he's making a statement, but not the one he thinks he's making

Political violence is never the answer, but if you live in a country awash in guns and you're a public figure who has made millions being a hate-filled asshole, at some point you kind of have to expect something bad might happen

It says a lot about the NFL that the teams are each worth many billions of dollars yet they hoist a net for every field goal so a random fan can't have a souvenir

I'm not sure how it happened, but I've become a fan of Dave Sitek

Here's where I find out he's problematic

Years ago, I did a SURP at University of Utah working for a grad student named Dean Oba. Dean went on to be a teacher and invented wheelchair tennis. I never forgot Dean and had a great time working for him.

Anyway, just gave $100 to Turek in honor of Dean

The only thing creepier would be if she had said "and anyway my dad is a grower not a shower," and if she *did* say that, I honestly do not want to know

One of the fun things about listening to a radio station from Namibia (Omulunga Radio) is watching Shazam crater trying to identify a song that was a huge hit in Africa but never made it into any other market

Shazam is an ethnocentric as fuck piece of trash

This is the transhumanists goal, kill off most of humanity so we can evolve to next level

Except evolution doesn't work that way, but whatever
Makes you wonder if people in the Trump administration have an office pool to see who can kill the most people.

The gas can flowing more freely is not the chilling part here. If they're rolling back Diesel exhaust emissions regulations that is going to kill a lot of people. Especially with all the huge personal Diesel p/u trucks on the road now. This is a disaster.
Zeldin: "Our proposal isn't just a rescission of the endangerment finding, but also all of the regulations that followed ... we're heeding the American public that wants relief from diesel fuel exhaust systems. They want their gas cans to be able to pour more freely."

We need a new term, similar to the semi-derogatory MAMIL acronym for cyclists:

I was going to make a joke about Benton County, Washington and I went to their website for background info and the most visited page on their website is the jail roster and now I don't feel like making a joke about them
