Must-read story on how a private equity group cornered the fire truck market, doubling prices, causing massive delays and leaving departments across the county — including Los Angeles — without the resources needed to combat fires.

Dear Humans,
Trump’s hiring freeze has left his own supporters jobless and humiliated. Now, they’re begging him to fix the chaos he caused—and the irony is nothing short of divine. Grab some popcorn; it’s time for thy daily dose of schadenfreude.

Delay, Deny, Depose... It works.
Challenge every illegal, immoral, illogical, impractical order. Question their authority, their competence, their understanding. Bog them down, gum up the works, tell them to "go to hell," smile and play dumb, ask how & why.
Give them nothing without a struggle.

Why do video games cost so much to make these days? A recent NYT article pinned bloated budgets on the graphical arms race, but that's only a small part of the equation. The real problem? Rampant mismanagement.

The official numbers are in: 2024 is the hottest year on record. Climate change is the main culprit. But there might be something else going on, too.
