I just gotta know who are the 7% of NYC voters motivated enough to get out and vote in an otherwise odd year, but so low education or so delusional they bothered to cast a vote for Silwa.

I need a 5,000 word profile on one of them, stat.

A reminder that if you think Governor Newsom's stance on trans youth in sports is pathetic, you can let him know right here!

Takes two minutes. Feels cathartic to remind him he'll never be president if he can't grow a spine.

You can contact the Governor a few different ways. The best way is through his online form.

In light of today's antisemitism, your periodic reminder that it used to be US Government policy to shoot nazis on sight.

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness)

As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

Had some time last night and I wrote up a small analysis of how a fairly new comparator IC (TLV1871) is super handy for interfacing audio-rate analog signals with digital logic.

If you wanted to drill a small hole in a ceramic DIP IC, how would you do it?

Both a regular 1mm drill bit and a diamond-dusted HSS bit have basically had almost no effect...

I think we should start chanting "ICE can't read" at them. Make them deny their illiteracy--if they can.

The Overton window will continue to slide on these absolute dumbfuck weirdo goons.
"nearly half..." ???

it's an open book test.

If you live in San Francisco, today is a good day to familiarize yourself with the San Francisco Rapid Response Network, which has a 24-hour hotline for reporting ICE raids, actually verifies those raid reports, and does attorney activation: sfilen.org/resources/sf...

I must have watched a hundred hours of his videos or more this year learning chess.

I'm not usually broken up about a famous person passing but this one hits. Absolute theft for us to lose him at 29.
Daniel Naroditsky, a chess grandmaster, the highest title given to competitors by the International Chess Federation, and a former Junior World Champion, has died at 29.

Just to be clear, are we all rooting for Team Heist or Team Louvre?
Shoutout to whoever was like the news sucks, let’s spice it up by doing a jewel heist at the Louvre

Sedition will remain a crime on the books until they amend it out of the constitution, and the statute of limitations runs far longer than this administration has left.
This story is extraordinary even by 2025 standards. Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, made a deal with Bukele and agreed to renege on informant agreements in a years-long DOJ investigation into MS-13, totally undercutting credibility of such agreements.

Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal
To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.

I think Trump is going to die soon or otherwise need to be put out to pasture, and they know they have no authority or political capital on their own. These people have whatever is the opposite of The Juice.
Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.
This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.

America is on the brink of martial law.

These weirdo losers have always sucked, and deep down they know they still suck and are still a bunch of losers.
Sometimes it’s hard to tell if the bad guys know they’re losing, so it’s important to read it when they say it out loud.
