I see the 30 December response. Is it adequate? @repwalkinshaw.bsky.social The "voluntary departures" language is questionable. Federal News Network coverage has been pretty good! @federalnewsnetwork.com

Sounds good.

@news34binghamton.bsky.social good article about the rail biles in Milford!

I think this was written by AI: When I made $1 million, friends and family kept asking for money. I had to cut some relationships out of my life. Essay by Kimanzi Constable -- The syntax is simplistic.

Some people take the "negotiations" seriously. One wonder how people develop such an enormous capacity at self deception?

@colinsnewsday.bsky.social SSG Critelli was awesome. So special. Best rendition of the national anthem.

I would like to see Rempe score more. Drive right to the goal using his size and push the puck into the net! Push everyone out of the way.

You mean like the billionaires just left NYC in a mass exodus? Oh wait... they didn't. Maybe you could have researched that for like 5 seconds before writing the story.

I read The Great Nerve by Kevin Tracey, MD. It is good for those considering a Vagus Nerve Stimulator (VNS). Has a lot of background and history. It states that we still do not know why a VNS helps with epilepsy and depression. The text highlights the author's role in related research.

December 24, 1945 Lemmy (lead singer for Motörhead) is born Ian Fraser Kilmister in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, England. He would earn the nickname Lemmy from his classmates. 🎶🎤🎸🤘 #MusicSky #ClassicVinyl

I had not heard of this bill before.

Does anyone have Cuomo's address in Florida?

Calvin and Hobbes exhibit at the Fenimore Art Museum -- ends this month. Took about an hour and 15 minutes to check it out. Cooperstown is more than just baseball.

This could have been an email.

Today's strip was a big departure from the usual focus on Sarge's thuggishness or the General's golf. I can't remember the last time Beetle Bailey referenced current events. Different.

The number of federal employees who left their jobs in 2025 will total about 317,000, according to the OPM, after efforts by Elon Musk and the Trump administration to reshape the government workforce.

My brother-in-law lent me Ringworld by Larry Niven. I read about 30 pages and could not get into it. This was a third printing soft cover, November 1971. I have a few of Niven's collaborative books that I liked (read 35+ years ago), but this one seemed too contrived.

Mark Kelly will be the next Democratic Nominee for POTUS. He will win 2028.

Surveillance video of the now-infamous raccoon break-in at a Virginia liquor store has been released.

@reprileyny.bsky.social Congressman -- when will you impeach Hegseth? Thank you.

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Finished reading The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien, 2022 William Morrow version. It is a comprehensive work, with many illustrations by JRR himself. But, also like reading a history book. It took me about a month to work through it. An awesome work.

Only Trump would order an investigation into someone who told people NOT to break the law.

Jared and Witkoff are Kremlin stooges .. and utter ignoramuses www.wsj.com/world/russia...

Is Cuomo in Florida yet? When is he leaving NY?

NY driver busted with fake registration, inspection stickers written in crayon

you guys i don't think the president is doing great like mentally

@wegmansofficial.bsky.social Weggies...you there?

Directly and explicitly commit to prosecuting anyone issuing, relaying, and following illegal orders, or just shut the fuck up

Found this today.

Mobile lounges at Dulles need to go the way of the dinosaur. They are an anachronism and really not a great way to end a long trip. Put in a tunnel or something!!

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

I suspect a great many New Yorkers watching wealthy people’s wealth *fail* to get them preferential access to the mayor-elect are feeling better and better about their vote for Zohran Mamdani.

NYR need Rempe to clear the ice! Win at home!!!!!!!

Did Cuomo move to Mar a Lago yet?

Subway needs to give him a life time sandwich card ..

Is Cuomo in Florida yet?.

Some people are saying New York City chose well also.

Last night I watched a ca. 1993 VHS recording of Repo Man, taped from an A&E airing. Quality was poor (30+ year-old tape). But fascinating in that it included many scenes that are not in the usual movie version. I continue to believe that Repo Man is the best movie ever.

Is it too late for a huge advertising blitz to make sure everyone hears of this?

The beloved “Happy Days” icon turned 80 years old on Oct. 30.

Annual reminder

Rule of Law Alert: Trump’s authority for country-specific tariffs comes from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which doesn’t mention tariffs—but does require a national emergency. An ad showing that Reagan opposed tariffs surely is not a national emergency. (It may be a personal one)

Pretty.

“Oh, look, this get better …‘F’ in history! You even flunk something not happen yet?”
