Anyone think that the Pentagon will be open and honest about casualties in a ground war?

Mountains and has no sense of the history of Star Trek, and just had a movie come out of his book that is all about international and interstellar cooperation to solve global problems. But sure, Andy

Ah, so Andy Weir is like... *dumb* dumb gizmodo.com/andy-weir-st...

If you haven't read this, you need to. It's a really lovely book.

Iran is about 2.5X the size of Afghanistan. It has a population of 92,000,000. The standing army is approximately 600,000 people. The IRG is about 150,000 ground troops. The train takes from feeders to rugged mountains. Any invasion would be a bloody mess.

Mark Zuckerberg, an outspoken critic of "man-made climate change", shows off his new $300 million, 287-foot mega yacht, powered by four gigantic diesel engines. What's that word oh yea hypocrite that fits .

Hollywood has gone too far this time.

Since the headline is a bit confusing, the NYT is reporting that on the same day we hit the girl's school in Minab, we also sent a missile full of tungsten steel pellets at a girl's volleyball tournament hundreds of miles away in Lamerd. Twenty one dead. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/w...

The President it threatening to commit serious war crimes that would completely destabilize the region, kill thousands of civilians and completely crash the oil markets for years to come. He needs to be sedated and locked away. And for the love of dog, take away his phone.

Re-watching The Man in the High Castle and I think making s character Frank Frick was just mean to the Japanese actors

Seems like there needs to be suits against all involved - especially the facial recognition company. This is a ridiculous abuse.

All the empathy of a brick.

Saw Project Hail Mary. It was OK. At least they didn't call xenonite "Unobtanium."

Had a chance to get some benefits at the volunteer usher program if we volunteered to fill some emergency usher spots for a Russian Deathmetal band tonight. 1) deathmetal. No. 2) Russian. No. Instead we are going to go see The Hail Mary Project.

It's the 21st Century and there are still fucking kings. The big eared philanderer is rich and powerful why?

So I've thing I learned when I went to Botswana is that the idea that elephants are loud is wrong. You haven't lived until a multi thousand pound animal walks up behind you and you don't hear a thing until it wants you to.

Andy Kim: "Homan did an excellent job dodging your question about why Trump didn't start paying the TSA agents sooner if he had the authority all along. I know the answer to that, the American people know. It's because he doesn't care about them."

A question for Trump and Macnamoron Hegseth: after you or trips on Karg Island, how will you keep them alive as the drone swarms start hitting?

Imagine we create a general AI that is super intelligent and ask it to solve all the world's problems. It will likely say we need to reduce carbon emissions drastically, eliminate wealth inequality, and embrace science. The bros would immediately unplug it.

People like Elon who claim that AI and robots will solve all of our problems and lead to A post scarcity society are the Underpants Gnomes of tech.

This is orange shitler's 56th visit to his golf course in West Palm Beach and 110th golf day in just over 14 months in office. Today he surpassed $100 million which puts him on track to spend $300 million on golf.

This story is insane. Married an American, arrested at her greencard interview, flown out of state, nearly killed multiple times when her diabetes was ignored and then mistreated. When she finally got out? Found out her credit card had been used illegally. www.daylightsandiego.org/san-diego-wo...

David Roberts - the U.S. is basically aligning itself as the last big petrostate. And will go down with the fossil fuel ship; and China is aligning itself as the first electrostate. It is rapidly electrifying its economy, dominating the technology, supply chains, world markets, everything

Well done. #NoKings

He was an amazing talent. RIP.

They had DW Moffat on Wait Wait Don't Tell Me today and I realized that I knew him back in the day in Chicago when he went by Don. I had never connected the two because I don't think I've ever seen any of the things he's been in.

In fairness it’s not like the consequences of having a mad king unilaterally take the country to war on a whim were so incredibly obvious that you could see it coming from the 18th and 19th centuries www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Or daughter is out of town so we came over to her place to take care of her cat Bowie and then are going to the No Kings march. Happy caturday.

Alice Augusta Ball found the cure for leprosy at 23. She died in a mysterious lab accident at 24. Arthur Dean stole her research, stole it and renamed it from "The Ball Method" to "The Dean Method." It took 90 years before her original research papers were found and she got the credit due to her.

I've been waiting for this for 26 years

Keep it up GOP. One more thing to guarantee you lose big this fall.

Hey #legal folks, will this endear you to a federal judge?

This seems bad.

When I went on Medicare, the Dr's office started doing basic acuity questions on my annual visits. Simple stuff. They don't do that to test your intelligence, they do it to look for impairment.

Hoping the knees hold up for the Seattle march tomorrow. If not, I'll go to a smaller one closer to home.

Saw an ad for the new HP series and apart from everything else (like the author being a terrible human) I don't understand why they bothered. The movies were fine. They didn't need a remake.

This seems highly illegal. And if it somehow is allowed to continue, why would anyone else enter into any sort agreement with this administration?

While I appreciate the fact that the DHS bill got passed in the Senate, it sure seems wrong that unless someone calls for a quorum count, quorum is just assumed so they can pass legislation without 51 Senators being present as the Constitution requires.

The Romans had some things right: "The practice, originating in Ancient Rome, of erasing all traces of a person—destroying statues, removing names from inscriptions, and rewriting records—is called damnatio memoriae." I think we know who deserves this.

More than 100 pieces of potential evidence, including computers, were removed from Epstein’s home before the government searched it in 2005.

I'm so glad that The Pitt is a real TV show. You get to ep 8, don't want it to end, and then it doesn't, because they made enough episodes to fill a season. Then when you ARE done you don't have to even wait long for more, because it's a real TV show, so they'll have another season out in a year.
