Ever wonder how to get rid of a mattress? Or how to find resources for a neighbor in need? Call 311.    311 is contacted 100,000 times every day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. No call is too small.    So on the anniversary of 311 (3/11), I decided to answer some of those calls myself.

The limitations on violence established after World War II were not brought by pacifists or peaceniks but by literal old soldiers. They knew. They had seen.

Grand so, Hakeem! THEN GIVE THEM ACTION.

Sheer genius.

25th or 2nd, doesn’t much matter which.

Best Star Trek crew. Wrong answers only.

The Iranian regime also blows donkeys, and hasn’t a hope in hell of doing what the vid shows.* Still, that’s good vid. And, of course, fuck Whiskey Pete. *Not that it has to. It can just keep controlling the Strait.

The only answer is Russia's total defeat in Ukraine, collapse of the Putin terrorist mafia regime, and the humiliation and dissolution of the Russian empire and the imperialist virus. Don't repeat the mistakes of victory in the Cold War." - Garry Kasparov

Red Lobster went bankrupt because of private equity, not shrimp.

Not sure about that. If Altman gives Trump a big enough bribe, Trump will bail him out. After all, it’s only the taxpayers’ money.

Fine words from Herzog. But of course, as head of state, he is a figurehead with no real power. In those circumstances, the thing for him to do -- if he means what he says -- is to resign. Will he? He will and me hole.

Tagann muid a bhéith sa thrátha na Cásca, mar sin bhí uainn a fhéachaint ar scannán faoi choiníní. Roghnaigh muid Watership Down. Níor fhéach muid air riamh. Bhí sé iontach. Is scannán tochtmhar, go físiúl an-hálainn é.

They’re also increasingly drawn to MAGA and incelism. So — Romanism? Sure, why the hell not. All much of a muchness. That said: never trust godbotherers. They lie like thieves. They lie like conservatives. They lie like godbotherers.

Which makes one wonder: had these researchers thought about it for 30 seconds? www.thetimes.com/life-style/s...

"The worst thing we can do is convince ourselves that change is no longer possible. Because that is the real trap. Not failure, but resignation." If you're need of a bit of hope, I recommend giving this Substack by @aislinnn.bsky.social a read!

Beidh an tráth sin sa bhliain liotúirgeach buailte linn arís eile ar ball beag. Tá mé ag tnúth le ceiliúradh an Domhnach i gcomhréir lenár seantraidisiúin: 90 bomaite sna hárdain le hispíní brat agus le beoir agus le greasáil ollmhór thugtha don FC Köln.

I am so looking forward to the upcoming WC degenerating into a chaotic, financially catastrophic fiasco.

Psst: an algorithm isn't capable of feeling gratitude, or anything else. And it's not a "her".

My hypothesis is that there is a hard core, maybe 25%-33%, of the electorate in *every* country who are invincibly ignorant, gleefully stupid, irreparably vicious, and need to be deprived of the ability to participate in the political life of the nation - whatever nation it is that they live in.

This should bring a smile to your face.

So terribly, terribly sad that Kirk has been excluded from the political discourse. Tragic, really.

Kristi Noem rigging the property appraiser’s exam while governor so her daughter could get her license, killing a puppy, and giving her boyfriend a powerful job in govt while cheating on her cross-dressing spouse is not that unusual on the spectrum of Republican politician behavior.

OpenAI's Sora and Meta's metaverse were shuttered the same week. Both were defined by an aesthetic that embodies Silicon Valley's current project: to undermine labor, replace art + lived experience with digital facsimiles, and extract value at any cost. And users recoiled at the mere sight of them.
