100 fracking % Siphon in, pumping is 'round the clock.

The Wetland Project has been my favorite alternate-reality radio experience since it began. Since it only happens once a year, you can’t become accustomed to it. Close your eyes and be washed over by the sonic reality of an isolated bog on Saturna Island!

What rah-rah war hawks don't know or don't believe. The cost ratios for each team are upside down; US vs. current war. We can't afford it @ $1B/day, JIT everything + long lead times for our "inventory/re-supply". I'd love to be wrong. It doesn't smell that way. www.reuters.com/business/aer...

O.M.G. This gives me Roaring Twenties vibes. "Pivot to A.I., it's a 'SURE THING'"!

On big, slow moving, difficult to maneuver in tight spaces, easily identifiable targets. Which are being threatened by explosives that are small, maneuverable, fast moving, hard to identify and locate. Any questions or concerns? Anyone? Going once, twice... OK! That's a wrap!

M*A*S*H 1972-1983

Sooo.....there's a LOT of buried unreasonable "heat" in Protestant Denominations that connects back to European religious wars. In my family's Northern European roots (both sets of grandparents were immigrants) there was this weird, "Those FRENCH....!!!!" Asked a Protestant theologian about it. 1/3

The thing I always found funny about companies advertising ISO9000 is that it only means you know what your processes are, not that they're any good.

Seconded x2. The southwest Airlines story is the VC world illustrated. Ask me how I know.

The stock market is completely untethered from reality at this point, but that seems to be a common condition. It is NOT pricing future events in a "rational market" manner. "Denial is not just a river in Egypt." overcoming denial is the first step. Unfortunately, things get worse first. IYKYK.

Hey software devs, bosses on here: During the endless update cycle (I get it, I've run IT depts). Stop resetting my privacy, communication and AI choices to YOUR default preferences. If that's default for your product, tell me when I'm offered settings choices. Then I can make choices too.

Perfect! Awesome summary.

4 yrs ago today, a family member managed a truly spectacular own goal, splintered his domestic bliss, & in the process, united the world for a day. On popular request, I shall now recreate the livetweet thread from that day So gather around children, for this is the tale of The Rice Truck Saga

Believe the women.

At a certain point of wealth, what is being pursued seems not to be wealth, but the ability to make other people suffer. What's being pursued is immunity from human decency; the ability and even the right to be depraved with impunity. They get off on the suffering. www.the-reframe.com/where-it-ends/

The truth will appear, evidence in the long run cannot stay hidden. Yes. We are screwed. The core issue here is that we have been "extracting superior value" since the first slaves were imported (1526). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery... 500 years. The bill is now due. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xmc...

I saw a thing this morning of a guy who blamed tornados in the area on new roundabouts and the cars driving in them. That has to be the single most American thing I've ever heard.

Why is Jared Kushner in the Middle East? It's the amateur finance team, backed by the commander of the assault. Idiots! Reading "in the Shadow of the Great House" by Daniel Rood and the strategy and behavior of our administration reflects the goals of the planter class. This is going to go V Bad.

I just sent this to all my representation in government, down to the State Level and asked them where they stand in "Fighting for their constituents". I get endless messages about their hard work on my behalf. Rid me of this scourge or get out.

Remove. Him. From. Office.

Same.

This is absolutely amazing, summarizing what makes ANYTHING work! As a financial controller, I ALWAYS hired the "unambitious keep the lights on" people when I could find them. They run AP, AR, Payroll and FP&A! I gave them superior bonuses and anything they wanted to make their job easier.

ICE arrested more than 800 people after tips from TSA, investigation shows Reuters uncovers that the TSA shared more than 31,000 traveler records with ICE for immigration enforcement www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

FWIW: The "Organization" is running a "Pump and Dump" scheme using stock, futures and prediction markets. Proxy players agree to kickback percentages for "access". All backed up by "Crime Syndicate" rules of deniability and the bully challenge of "Prove IT!". Victimless crimes devoid of "intent".

This chaotic BS is shortening lives. Mine for sure. Elevated BP, sleep deprivation, etc. Our ancestors lived shorter lives because of this as everyday life, along w/14hr x6 day labor. IE the perfect world of "He Who Shall Not Be Named" and the enablers. IMO: 2 wk=1,000% working on kickback options.

Living in the United States at this time principally involves being an involuntary participant in a weekly pump and dump market manipulation scheme enacted by the child predator president and his cabal of bloodthirsty freaks. The entire apparatus of the state is focused on fixing the price of oil

Well this is a dose of freezing cold water! www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

A mild frustration of mine re: the WSO rescue is that it people don't quite get how it illustrates how DoD is optimized for being professionally and tactically excellent at things that we will never, ever, do in an actual war against a major power.

I worked in construction and went on he to run MANY projects in my career. This article describes the fundamentals that drive schedule slippage. The traditional "solution"? Throw money and bodies (extra labor) at it. As EVERYONE learned during the Covid-19 shutdowns, interdependent international 1/7

This is absolutely fantastic. ht: @maddenifico.bsky.social

Today's Wired Magazine 😡

A planet, if you can keep it.

The stock market is LYING to you. Like "You Know Who".

THIS perfectly describes most of today’s media bias and failure!

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Read the linked article and Cory D is articulating an observation that I don't see a solution to. Our capitalistic society elevates and rewards the hustler. What are we to do with cheaters and hustlers? They have "Captured the means of production": ALL labor and productivity benefits above the mean.

My nightmare.

The only mainstream journalists speaking truth to power these days are cartoonists

This.👇

Bravo. This description stands alone.

The happiness of this blind little dog when she was adopted is indescribable . 😍

This is an excellent summary of the US War on Iran current situation. I’m an existentialist and borderline absurdist and even I struggle with the current moment. This summary is just fantastic.

Perfect. Great tracker. I was thinking today: No proof he ever donated his salary anywhere either. He actually believes hes got a siphon into a bottomless ocean of CA$H.

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. Democrats have introduced 7 bills to fund TSA. Republicans voted them all down. Republicans are to blame for long TSA lines.

More children have been molested by members of the #Duggar family than the total number of illegal aliens who've ever voted in #Arkansas. Just sayin'.

I must read this book!! Capitalism laid bare. Anyone who thinks the Techbros or even current corporate stock traded companies with "investors and shareholders" are significantly different isn't paying attention. $ extraction from labor is foundational.
