Instead, they're funneling taxpayer money into the Pentagon. Can we return them for one that will do all that cool stuff you said they would?"

I wrote my senior thesis, a broken experiment on the correlation between the quick shake test and legitimate complete conversion by using GC-FIR in biodiesel. Broken because the machine’s FIR attachment was broken. I aced that shit in 2007. AI wasn’t a thing then.

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

I think my favorite part of this glorious video is hearing this nazi loser blubbering about how outnumbered he is, because it's something we could all stand to remember:

We will ALWAYS outnumber nazi scum.

We will ALWAYS outnumber fascists.

And as long as we fight back, they will NEVER win.

Scientists Finally Reveal Biological Basis of Long COVID Brain Fog.

Hilarious.

My bank can just do a stop payment at my request though. That's free. That takes 15 minutes on the phone. And it actively harms them because payment processors do NOT like when you get a stop payment order placed against you.

What you do with this information is between you and God.

This underhanded strategy hasn’t retained customers as they hoped.
