Remember that time that Musk totally wanted to fight Zuckerberg and the only reason he didn't is cause Musk's "mom" told him on twitter he wasn't allowed to?

Caught a full episode of Who Do You Think You Are? on YouTube that left off with a mystery. Can I resist a challenge to my top-notch research skills? Would I write a Python program to download all of the muster rolls at a particular military base during WWII then run the images through OCR?

It's not hyperbole in the least to say Musk purchased a six-month shadow presidency for $280 million and used the power of that shadow presidency to 1. Steal the government’s data, 2. Permanently damage the state’s ability to regulate his businesses, and 3, kill non-white people.

🚨BREAKING: A Virginia circuit court has refused to block the implementation of Democrats’ new congressional map, which voters approved in a statewide special election last week. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Right, it's important to remember that this is unfortunately a fairly common experience for most presidents, but normally presidents don't spend all their time crying about it in public.

Remember how less than three weeks ago the president threatened to kill an entire civilization

🚨BREAKING: Voters in Virginia have greenlit a plan that could see Democrats gain up to four more seats in Congress during the 2026 midterm elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them. New piece ↓ open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

SCOOP --> Paramount, Meta, and X are refusing to say what happened to their huge contributions to Trump's presidential library after Sen Elizabeth Warren raised questions about its fund getting dissolved. Ds say tens of millions remain unaccounted for. Details here: newrepublic.com/article/2092...

It was almost 80 degrees yesterday. Today it is snowing.

Fascinating paragraph from Scott Alexander, where he admits he’s the dog that caught the car

BREAKING: The U.S. Central Command says it will begin a blockade of Iranian ports Monday at 10 a.m. ET.

Someone quick, post a head of lettuce next to Vance

For people just catching up to the Amanda Ungaro / Paolo Zampolli story (she was an Epstein victim, then the mother of his child; he just had her deported by ICE), here's the bigger context: it was Zampolli who brought the Slovenian model Melania Knauss to the US and introduced her to Trump. 1/

TACO Tuesday, as expected

Both Axios and Reuters now reporting that U.S. special forces rescued the second crew member of the F-15 fighter jet that was shot down over Iran www.axios.com/2026/04/05/i...

What can you even say?

I WILL BURY YOU! i said while smashing the z-level button into the build plate for a print that won’t stick. HOW’S THAT FOR SQUISH, Neptune 4.

BREAKING: Judge Leon finds Trump likely lacks the authority to build the ballroom, blocks Trump admin from building unless Congress actually gives that authority. "[N]o statute comes close to giving the President the authority he claims to have." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Teva took a missile. Teva makes most of the generic drugs in the world for many illnesses. If you can get an emergency supply, with the help of your doctor, you should do so now.

Didn’t have ‘rush to my medicine cabinet to make sure none of my generics are made by TEVA in Israel (largest generic pharmaceutical company in the world) because they got blown up’ on my BINGO CARD but here we are.

If you woulda told me 10 years ago that Iran was gonna launch an AI Lego diss track music video about Trump tbh I would have been very confused. "Also its a bop" What even is real life anymore lmao

These products have done so much good for my celiac disease. Hoping she gets all the help she needs. gofund.me/fcc85573c

the stink of gender resentment coming off Silicon Valley has been obvious for a while. these men hate women because they hate being told no.

I knew that the Department of War shot a missile into a school & killed 175 civilians, mostly children. This is learned today: Secretary of War Hegseth had cut the teams assigned to prevent such tragedies by 90%. www.npr.org/2026/03/11/n...

Wait, you mean to say a regime that has spent literally its entire 50-year existence preparing for an attack by the US military has managed to out-think a collection of drunks, pedophiles and death-cultists who started a war without deciding what it was about? Weird.

(Reuters) - U.S. intelligence indicates that Iran's leadership is still largely intact and is not at risk of collapse any time soon after nearly two weeks of relentless U.S. and Israeli bombardment, according to three sources familiar with the matter. uk.news.yahoo.com/exclusive-us...

USA vs Canada hockey: they’re playing rough as hell 😳

So far we have eliminated buying soda and 60L carbonation refills with a soda stream and an adapter for a 5lb tank. Will cost $30 for a refill/exchange should last a minimum of six months. Switching out paper towels for a stack of microfiber cloths. About to install an electric bidet.

MAHA was always a con. It was always about the ego and ambition of a drug-addled narcissistic fraud.

What?? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

So SCOTUS, with its fabricated-out-of-thin-air immunity doctrine, has actually made American presidents less accountable than LITERAL royalty.

Doing everything I can to de-commodify my life. Got any ideas of your own to share?

WOW. Look at the fraud in JD’s Ohio!

This is preying on my mind a bit. Jeffrey Epstein was not primarily a British scandal! So far we've removed a Prince from the Royal family, fired our US ambassador who was one of the most important political figures of the last few decades and banned the CEO of Barclays from the financial industry..
