Sick of seeing people’s gross promotional stickers on their laptops? This looked dumb to me at first, but Dell printed a fake peel on this sticker, likely in hopes of getting people to peel these gross things off after purchase.

Parsons, Kansas, will be the site of a California startup’s first ever 1-mile-deep nuclear reactor — with support from county commissioners, both Republican Kansas U.S. senators and Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly’s administration.
Kansas will get the world’s first mile-deep nuclear reactor and the groundbreaking is next week
Deep Fission says it plans to install a nuclear reactor underground at an industrial park in southeast Kansas. State and local government leaders are on board. It’s part of a national push for new nuclear energy generation.

Can’t wait for Hegseth to go to prison. Every opposition candidate should be yelling about holding these fuckers responsible for their crimes.
Senator Kelly is correct.

Plus a Public Service Announcement:

KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.

The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Epstein was a total psychopath, and anyone who entered his office should've figured it out. Psychos love having stuffed predators around.
