How does an ‘escape pod’ evade capture?
It’s a tiny little escape pod?!?
Hit it with a tractor beam?!?
And how do the holograms / photonics possess matter?!?
They are touchable light or something?
So many questions.

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”
In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

Huge stuff.
I mailed stuff out of Kittery, ME that got postmarked out of Boston the next day.
Voting deadlines like this are important the USPS needs to explain how much time it takes to get a post mark by each post office and how variable it can be.

A retired Tennessee policeman who spent more than a month in jail over an anti-Trump Facebook post is suing the authorities responsible for his arrest.
Attorneys for Larry Bushart, 61, allege in the lawsuit that those responsible violated Bushart's First and Fourth Amendment rights.

A retired policeman was jailed over an anti-Trump meme. Now he’s suing.
Attorneys for 61-year-old Larry Bushart say a Tennessee sheriff violated the First Amendment: “In America, we do not jail people for political speech.”

Hey @minakimes.bsky.social is State Farm doing more commercials without Mahomes??
Is that because he is injured and recovering or is his advertising value fading (or is he too much money?).
Who covers NFL players and their non-football revenues?

I dislike DOGE and Elon Musk but this sounds like it should be funded privately or via an NGO.
USAID funding a radio station in Holland to cover the Sudan?!?
The US can barely get NPR funded and most of it private or corporate donors.

Is why John Cena quit?
Pro-wrestling legend Mick Foley announced this morning that he's parting ways with WWE over the organization's "close relationship with Donald Trump," saying the president's "incredibly cruel comments in the wake of Rob Reiner’s death is the final straw for me."

This is why we do not scream MVP at a Patriots QB.
And I don’t blame Drake Maye.
But the Patriots coaching hasn’t been MVP-level.
Bills just owned the 2nd half.
Patriots needed to stop their momentum building in the 2nd quarter.
