Insider reporting from an unnamed Sacramento Kings official says the work to build a championship team is “95% done.” The remaining 5% of work is focused on acquiring superstar players who fit together and hiring an elite coach.

The eventual audit of the 1776 slush fund will show that after 2 prominent insurrectionists received $ to loud fanfare, 95% was secretly embezzled by the Trump family/co while perpetually dangled out as a carrot to his supporters. Even Lindsey Graham, the originator of this plan, got stiffed.

Got my tax refund for $3.01 - Party time 🎉

Today was my last day working at the museum (MOSAC) what a wonderful 4+ years of teaching science. It kept me sane in this new dark age,

Pardoning the criminals who tried to overturn an election to keep you in power and creating a $1.776 billion slush fund for them seems like exactly what you would do if you wanted them to do it again.

There’s 8-9 teenagers hanging out at my house this afternoon. I’m rethinking my life decisions.

An awful lot of the politics of the moment can be explained with this chart. Gift link: www.ctinsider.com/columnist/ar...

If your conspiracy involves a good number of people faking their own ineptitude, I’m calling BS. People resist that too much.

AISearch bots keep reciting pseudo-science, myths and misinformation as I try to collect a few specific facts for my presentation this week. Do not trust them for anything you don’t already know enough to fact check.

“Wanting the world to burn because you can't have everything on your left-wing political checklist is loser shit.” @dennycarter.bsky.social speaks as a millennial but nails the 50 year problem.

That may be the most damning quote about the Kings ever, actually debating whether to pass on $30m+ to avoid one more year here.

Imagine if SMF construction did this in the new economy parking then used the electricity on an automated tram so economy parking could actually be used.

Not a huge follower the WNBA but I’ve gotta guess that having three earlier first round picks doesn’t actually speak well of your organization.

WNBA draft is on now because ?? F the west coast audience who needs em? No one watches basketball in LA or our new expansion city, Portland. WTF.

Saw one of these again at night watching the beach for emerging crabs.

Basketball refs have to kill the “no foul, other team’s ball” call in the replay era. It’s essentially a ref steal.

ESPN announcers should have their mouths washed out with soap each time they compliment these refs.

Deploying ICE at airports is to normalize their transition from being a special operation targeting immigrants to being an entity that polices all. This is the production of the American Gestapo, one institution at a time.

No exaggeration, I think this is one of the most important stories in US health care. MAHA makes a lot more sense if you see it as a hostile takeover by the quackery industry

I just went through every app’s setting last wknd. Do it for your own peace.

I used to think MAGA was just a giant snake oil con, it may still be partly true, but I’m now leaning towards all successful American political movements simply sell a feeling of superiority in some form or another.

It’s about knowing that photo-less news gets less placement and clicks, so less unflattering coverage of an unpopular war

One example of how our implicit bigotry shapes distrust.

Us rather moderate liberals too

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

What divides us now is not our political views, but our ethical beliefs. #Truth

House R’s declare Super Bowl will end at halftime this year but only Patriots lead. Bill includes provision to make it a crime to mention that Pat’s owner, Robert Kraft is named in Epstein files

Who’s going to ge kicked out of the Super Bowl for bringing it up? Not the press if course.

Smoking Coho bellies on a foggy morning

Kings snatch the tank from the jaws of victory.

If your comfort food isn’t chicharrones, you’re really missing out on more than just a few pounds.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

Is there still a world out there for a written humor/observation blog? Recommendations?

AI models (female) get easier to spot as redundancy and ubiquity increases. I find this amusing to se the same “person” on porn, dating, investment, medical ads.
