Long time no skeet! My world contracts every time I blink. Mom is in home hospice and I damaged something in my left knee, so I’m currently out on worker’s comp. I have almost completed the checklist for turkey day. I’ll be cooking at home and I hope that everyone enjoys the food orgy this week.

Trump has thrown down the (tiny) gauntlet.

AOC and Crocket can now challenge him to a televised contest where leading members of the Democratic leadership complete this cognitive test against the clock and Trump.

How do you think he'll do?
Hi. Hello. This is the measure he is talking about...he told on himself. NOTHING about this should be even a little bit hard if your cognitive capacity is even at 60%.

I have mostly disappeared because of my role as a primary caregiver for my mom. She was sent home on hospice in July. While she seemed to rally in August, I can see the start of a another decline. I’m guessing August was the “golden rally” and that we’ve come out on the other side.

Well this is bad. Google is indexing ChatGPT conversations exposing sensitive user data

I tried a few quick searches. I found someone's chat where I can see their api key

I found some building their resume. Their name, email and phone numbers are exposed.

Just one step closer to that pardon and then she will flee the country with the $millions she probably has hidden in offshore accounts

There is a playbook here they appear to be following:

1) Break apart the government.
2) Crash the economy.
3) Sell government assets and bankrupt companies to billionaires for cheap.
4) Cement power for oligarchs and fascists.

But we the people will not allow this—we will resist, and we will win.
How 'shock therapy' created Russian oligarchs and paved the path for Putin
In the 1990s, reformers adopted a radical economic program in Russia. It devastated ordinary Russians and created a new class of oligarchs. And it explains the rise of Putin and the leader he is today

Okay lets game this out: You are a Nintendo employee given unlimited funds and authority to move Switch 2 production to the US. No new factories, that's going to take way too long, you need to work with existing American Contract Manufacturing capacity. How fast can you do it?

They will cancel cancer research to save money.
They will defund Alzhimer's research.
They will stop education funding.
But they won't ever tax the 1% fairly.

I watched the new @contrapoints.bsky.social video this week & was struck by her idea of “revenging humiliation” as one of the bedrock causes of far-right radicalization.

Many big-name preachers of wild Nazi ideologies experienced or anticipated some kind of public humiliation before converting…🧵

You all make us proud. Every time we share information, you’re right there helping us amplify it and push back. Huge thanks to those who stepped up—especially the lawyers. Word spread, and Musk’s team was made aware that Wisconsin law prohibits payments for voter turnout.

The recent Trump EO ordering Smithsonian to rewrite and whitewash American history and contemporary culture/politics is terrifying.

It effectively bans scholarly accounts of US history in favor of whitewashed and transphobic propaganda.

Elon Musk has committed a blatant felony by offering money for votes in order to help Brad Schimel. This is a chainsaw attack on democracy and the rule of law. Musk should be brought to justice immediately. 🧵

i profiled the first major american environmental disaster of the trump era

i would appreciate it if you shared, as the communities impacted feel deeply ignored by the mainstream media
two months after the moss landing battery fire in california, many near the site are still ill — and say the government is not doing enough to find out why they’re sick.

is moss landing an “east palestine” moment for the energy transition? i spent weeks investigating to find out.

People near the site of the disaster say they’re sick. But officials haven’t recognized any link between those symptoms and the fire.
