This week's Sunday evening movie was 1990s classic Office Space. It was fun, perhaps a bit dated at times, but unfortunately still relevant to today's office culture.

Michael Moore had a bit on his old show TV Nation called Love Night where he just sent singing telegrams and mariachi bands and pony rides to hate rallies and the Westboro Church and the image of just everyone being nice and in joyful revelry next to them made them FURIOUS

I was so happy that this museum opened because I learned a lot about how they made silk and cotton in the old days.

So Speaker Johnson gave the congress another week off. Paid of course, while they shut the govt down. The GOP has made it clear they have no interest in compromise with Dems. So they will have to figure how to reopen their govt that they closed. And they get another vacation

Supreme Court precedent protects flag burning as expressive political speech. Trump's post addresses the military, but the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C. §1385) generally prohibits federal troops from enforcing domestic law off-base, except on military bases or under the Insurrection Act.

I’m so sick of predators protecting other predators. Of men getting away with vile acts against women and girls. Of the system doing everything it can to silence survivors and make them believe it was their fault. As Gisele Pelicot said, the shame is not ours. It’s theirs. They need to face it

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES DAY 29 SEPTEMBER 2025 THESE HORRENDOUS TIMES DEMOCRATS STAND FIRM TRUMP Will blame Democrats Trump SAYS "Funding Healthcare is unserious & ridiculous " Health Insurance will cost more Your MEDICAID will be cut That's what Democrats are fighting for #TRUMPSHUTDOWN

She basically invented astrophysics. She proved the laws of chemistry, quantum mechanics, and statistical mechanics, not just gravity, applied universally. She determined the composition of the sun and primacy of hydrogen in the universe. She advised the PhDs of Frank Drake and Frank Kameny.

I found it very creepy that Microsoft Copilot AI did not know that Charlie Kirk had died, but had real time data on all football teams this Sunday.

Citing concerns about DEI, the Department of Education has halted funding for programs that support students with combined hearing and vision loss in eight states. “How low can you go?” one advocate asked. “How can you do this to children?” By @jodiscohen.bsky.social @jsmithrichards.bsky.social

Ukraine invented kinetic sanctions

Somehow I got a Monday off too and I am watching the Detroit Lions play the Baltimore Ravens tonight.

Jasmine Crockett: "The rhetoric that Charlie Kirk continuously put out there was rhetoric that specifically targeted people of color ... I was going to honor somebody who decided that they were going to negatively talk about me… Yeah, I'm not honoring that kind of stuff"

let me just go ahead right now and say: lol

In case y'all haven't heard, the Rapture is happening on Tuesday, September 23rd. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👇

Here's just a snippit of the crazy: "Commerce Secretary Lutnick said Friday that companies would have to pay $100k per year for H-1B worker visas. Then Karoline Leavitt POSTED ON X, Saturday that it's only a one-time fee that applied to each petition." PURE CHAOS! www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

TIRED OF WINNING? You're in luck! Trump decided to charge $100k for H1B Visas which will suck away all of the international talent from the US & send it straight to our adversaries. The panic created by this policy that'll destroy our future put people & companies in absolute chaos this weekend!

Today I am watching football. Football reminds me of snuggling with my dad on Sunday always watching the Detroit Lions play. The Chicago Bears have the lead over the Dallas Cowboys 14 to 3 in Q2. I wanted to order Domino's today but my employer didn't pay me on Friday as promised - so mean.

You will never outrun a border collie. They are soooo fast.😂🤣

I listened to Joel Osteen this morning! www.joelosteen.com

“If it weren't for SNAP, I wouldn't be where I am today…Republicans are trying to rip that lifeline away from millions of kids, veterans & working families.” @duckworth.senate.gov is serving a #CupOfJoe w/ a latte reality. Tell your Congressperson: vote NO on DJT’s budget.

My advice: Grab your history books before they end up in a fascist bonfire.

When I was a small child, I remember my parents watching the McCarthy hearings on TV. Back then Republicans only allowed it to go on for so long. When I was a young adult, I remember the Watergate hearings. Republicans told Nixon leave or we’ll throw you out. Now the GOP has gone full fascist.

www.politico.com/news/magazin... #ProudBlue As we descend into a new era of blacklists and corporate acquiescence to one vile man who is determined to resurrect the fear of Joseph McCarthy and his “Red Scare”. It is important we remember the damage Joseph McCarthy did to lives and careers.

NO SHIT !

Oh, shut up

An illustration for our times

I spent my week trying to learn about AI. I watched Microsoft Copilot delete Meta AI on my Gateway laptop and thought that was interesting.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Wouldn’t it be wild if Kimmel ended up becoming our Zelenskyy

Terminally ill people in the UK are already being sent “quietly” on an “early train home” by clinicians, the House of Lords has been told during an historic debate.

I have always loved the dummie code books and this week I tried to gain an understanding of AI and R code. I put Meta AI on my laptop but it had conflicts with Microsoft Copilot so I put Meta AI on my phone, but was not impressed when I asked it for simple pictures of plants and truck stuff.

I gasped aloud.

Nothing like a joke about US potentially murdering innocent people. Ha ha. bsky.app/profile/atru...

ABC has bowed once again to Trump because Jimmy Kimmel spoke a truth Trump didn’t like. www.cnbc.com/2025/09/17/c...

A whistleblower revealed that officials copied the sensitive SS database of over 300 million Americans to an unsecured cloud server, risking identity theft and benefits loss, and exposing the government to costly consequences.

I listened to Charlie Kirk's last debate with students but it didn't sound like a debate to me. I believe very deeply in God but I don't talk to people like he was talking to them. He seemed to lack an understanding of salvation. He sounded like he was trying to brainwash young people with hats.
