old Soviet joke for our times:

Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.

Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”

Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”

Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

I've officially moved into buying organic, free-range cage-free brown eggs, because they are cheaper than traditional white ones. Similar to the start of the pandemic, the former's pricing is staying pretty consistent, which again means artificial inflation on regular eggs! SMH.

The coup was aided by Trump. Putin is our daddy unless we rise the hell up.
Pete Hegseth just reportedly ordered the US military’s Cyber Command to “stand down” from all planning against Russia. Analysts have been ordered not to follow or report on Russian threats.

One inside source said, “Putin is on the inside now.”
Trump administration retreats in fight against Russian cyber threats
Recent incidents indicate US is no longer characterizing Russia as a cybersecurity threat, marking a radical departure: ‘Putin is on the inside now’
