Uh Oh. Microsoft plans to "update" my computer tonight WITHOUT MY PERMISSION ( guess because they think they own MY computer). Please send good vibes my way because those "updates" almost always lead to messes I have to clean up afterwards.

This "No Kings" song from Jesse Welles is giving me Dylanesque vibes and flashbacks to earlier eras of protests for peace and civil rights and women's rights. Those led to big things. This is starting to feel big, too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXWD...

We are living through the most consequential shift in the constitutional government of the United States in over a hundred and fifty years and nobody seems to have even noticed yet.

Q: What is Trump’s plan for antifa? A: He will create the organization, and then destroy it.

Re-posting this because...

Verizon and its "fabulous" new AI support system can rot in hell.

@abc7.bsky.social I have followed local news on 7 Eyewitness News in LA for years. No more. Canceling Jimmy Kimmel is un-American censorship and shows a lack of good judgment. In future I will find my news from a more principled source.

Hey "Today's News" writers' room--back of a wee bit on the torture and humiliation. It just makes you look like sick SOBs.

Still true--Every time I see a graph on Bluesky, which is several times a day, I miss Kevin Drum all over again.

Just ordered a new item from Best Buy. It's being shipped from the "Returns" warehouse in KY. Should I be nervous?

If you have to quote Hassett, at least do a text quote with no video so we don't have to see his smirking face.

I'm sliding into the belief that Trump hates the US as much as he hates Obama. He seems to want to destroy both.

“Alligator Alcatraz” will begin operations on Wednesday. This is your reminder that a prison without due process is a concentration camp.

So, I guess racial profiling is legal now.

I've been feeling outrage over the cuts to healthcare, food stamps, cuts to research, ice raids, sale of public land, all the other sh*t. Tonight I just feel hollow. I can't cry, shout, throw things, feel anything.

More Sierra National Forest up for sale. Perfect for a few condos and a 7Eleven.

#ForestFriday This would be up for sale in the Sierra National Forest. Perfect for a strip mall and a couple of gas stations.

The government response to the situation in LA is equal parts scary and hilarious.

GOP/MAGA/"conservatives" want to control Democrats/liberals want to share

🤣🤣🤣

Don't say, "I can't." Say, I'll try."

So many administration people have been breaking the law. It's time to start arresting them.

Well, at least all the vile things being said about Biden gives me a list of who to block.

Do I need to wait for intermission before I can sneak out of this awful movie?

@gallego.senate.gov Mark Andreesen??? WTF

All those tech bros wanted the only female characters in games to be scantily clad buxom broads who were only there for decoration. When the rare female game dev suggested that women might want more realistic female avatars the response was always, "We don't women to play our game."

Whenever anyone in government or business suggests PRIVATIZING a government service (Federal, State, County, or local), hold on to your wallet and expect the quality of the service to deteriorate or the service to even disappear.

!!!!

Microsoft--you broke it, you fix it. I'm not a tech bro, I don't know the tech gobblydeegook you offer as a solution, I shouldn't have to pay somebody else to fix your mistake. NO MORE WINDOWS UPDATES

If I had a dollar for every time something breaks when Windows does an update, I'd be as rich as Bill Gates.

Will there be any money left in the US treasury after Musk raids it and the government pays to defend all the lawsuits as a result?

Horse ... Barndoor
