"Kupor said ethical guidelines are being finalized to ensure that private-sector experts temporarily seconded to federal agencies won't lose stock options or other financial benefits." Sure, what could go wrong? Very excited to have Palantir engineers decide that Palantir is the tool to use

Last week Donald Trump registered the trademark "Donald J. Trump International Airport." This week Florida Republicans voted to rename Palm Beach International Airport Donald J. Trump International Airport," putting taxpayers on the hook for licensing fees that go straight to him

I've assembled a team of the most horrible perverts and criminals you've ever seen and we're going to fix this country

He degrades everything he touches

“The husband of Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has been barred from the department’s headquarters after at least two female staff members told officials that he had sexually assaulted them, according to people familiar with the decision and a police report obtained by The New York Times.”

…. what did I just read

telling my kids this is LCD Soundsystem

i can’t find it so i’ll recreate it because it made me laugh so fucking hard.

We literally are at the Brawndo stage of climate change denialism

love to be looted by our criminal president

so genuinely: uh, what was Merrick Garland doing with the Epstein files, given uh, it's brought down a royal and multiple Euro politicians/

I doubt that there's a more effective way to capture unitary executive theory in an image. And because it's the DOJ building, it also captures the notion that the President is above the law.

Ah is that why Chichén Itza is there

Work has been awful, weather has been awful, dog is sick and now the kid is whining "but I don't WANT to eat burgers! I WANT to eat worm soup in broth of dandelion tears and live in the Palace of Sighs!" And I hate to say it, but honestly, its times like these I wish we'd just kept the changeling.

this is exactly why I am absolutely not willing to overlook anyone who was once “advocating for ending USAID” as merely committing a little oopsie-daisy-booboo, by the way

Neil Gaiman's nanny had also been homeless. One of his other victims was also relying on him for housing. Matt Gaetz's victim was living at a homeless shelter with one of her parents and was trying to earn money for braces. It's not just a coincidence.

we couldn't use government funds to buy coffee (like, folgers ground coffee) when i worked on a CDC outbreak emergency response

I'm not a lawyer, but if I had a judge write Step 3 about my brief, I would probably just walk into the sea at that point

SCOOP: DHS strikes $1 billion purchasing agreement with Palantir. The news comes as Palantir leadership struggles to address internal tensions over the company's work with immigration enforcers. Here's how it was announced internally: www.wired.com/story/depart...

I really It's kinda weird how the "The left hates technology (because AI)" mostly come from people whose experience with tech is on the level of vibecoding and the "left" they criticize consists to a significant part of people who've been actually building and maintaining systems for decades.

Every AI product is basically stuff that would make even Frederick Taylor blanch in horror

Chapter 85, "The Tail" indeed... 🐋

"JD Vance thinks..." I'm going to stop you right there, buddy. I've seen this sentence enough to know that it's just going to end in something vile or racist or profoundly ignorant or perhaps even all three, and I just don't care what his opinion is.

lmao

"Journalism is better when it's backed by live markets," I say to my loved ones gathered around. Several of them start weeping with the realization that I'm truly gone with no hope of recovery. They give their last good byes.

Wondering if I should cheekily add an llms.txt file to dogetrack.info to ensure it will get scraped by AI models used by DOGE bros llmstxt.org

"excuse me sir, there must be some mistake- i voted to create the camps, not live in the zone of interest" is like every trump voter

It’s been awful to have the worst people in the world in Minnesota all this time. And while it doesn’t make up for all the suffering and destruction they’ve caused, I’m so grateful that they’ve been answered by the best people in the world.

What bothers me is that I feel like automated enforcement at stop signs and speeding and lights is the only way we’ll reduce accidents and deaths but there is no way currently to guarantee those readers won’t be abused for things like immigration dragnets, etc.

Look at my lawyer dawg I'm going to jail

Once again I'm asking Democrats to take their messaging cues from the sitting Democratic Senator who is the most vulnerable for re-election in 2026

that's one way to get Trump to drop his lawsuit www.ft.com/content/b101...

While the 23-year-old's death was reported in March 2025, it was not made clear that a ICE agent fired the fatal shot.

I should probably write a piece about how I don't vibe code because I love writing the code myself too much and even when I run into friction, that friction gives me insight into how to change things (usually after I go for a walk). But honestly, who cares what I think?
