Going to mow my lawn for the first time since heart surgery last summer. By the time I healed enough to mow it, the grass had gone dormant. It’s going to be a wet, shaggy mess.

If Democrats in the Senate were playing hardball right now, they would be adding a War Powers addendum to their DHS funding demands.

This will work well in the next school mass shooting.

And Labour can’t figure out why the Green Party just beat them in an election.

🎶Killing the coffee with her song. Drinking the wine with her words. Killing the coffee with her soooong🎶

This aged like mayonnaise on a hot summer day.

Reposting this from Trump’s State of the Union speech for reasons.

Has Donald the Dove been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize yet?

After 13 months of Trump’s goon squad blatantly violating court orders, courts are finally threatening them with criminal contempt. ‘Threatening’, not ‘finding’. 13 months.

Hard pass

I know this recruiter is Latino and his name is “Jesús,” but it makes me laugh to see his DM end, “Best regards, Jesus.”

Trump’s government is so xenophobic government agencies are shooting down another government agency’s drone.

I’m making myself more conservative. Why do I keep losing liberals? — Sir Keir Starmer, probably

It’s more than a feeling.

Lesson for Labour & Democrats: Becoming a more conservative candidate does not win you conservative voters. It causes you to lose liberal voters.

Your weight matters less if you exercise regularly: 150 minutes of cardio per week & about half of it ‘vigorous’ exercise. I’ve spent 3 hours on the treadmill in the past 7 days & that doesn’t count the miles I walk for work.

Green Party wins Gorton and Denton by-election

Trump’s schedule for Saturday was posted but nothing for tomorrow. Nothing.

Murder rates were already low before he was elected.

My vote to any candidate who says they will use antitrust & anti-monopoly laws to break this shit up.

Rubio claiming Iran is close to having ICBMs sounds a lot like Dick Cheney’s, “Iraq has WMDs & enriched uranium.”

Well, my cat just died of sudden heart failure, more-or-less the same reason why I had heart surgery last summer. It’s hitting the rest of my family pretty hard because they know I could have gone the same way. This was her spot after I finished my morning runs.

Trump can’t EO himself a new executive power but he can do something blatantly illegal and it will take the court system a year to catch up. And then it’s a dice roll of how many remaining SCOTUS Justices will stand up to the two who always vote to support Trump’s criminality.

I would like any self-proclaimed centrist/moderate Democrat to explain to me why the “all adults” column is not the centrist position within the Democratic Party

Related: the 250th anniversary of the declaration of independence is not the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States.

Also show that Trump knows Americans pay his tariffs, not foreign companies/countries.

They will make you have ID to vote then they will take away your ID because they don’t like you.

Probably the stupidest answer he could have given.

I’ve seen what entry level managers are paid at my company and I have to say, it’s not a lot more than senior engineers. It’s less than 10% more.

No CPAPs or CPAP supplies for 6 months.

Congrats to Fetterman for accomplishing the exact same thing Sinema did, and which will inevitably produce exactly the same result: an incumbent who plainly cannot win the primary for either party. There's no good reason for anyone to do that (there's plenty of bad reasons), but they did it! 🥳

I remember when the idea of a national ID card was abhorrent to conservatives.

The best case use for ai is that it turns people from being creators to being editors. The problem is creators find the most joy and meaning in the creative process, not the editing process.

Do computer engineers celebrate Engineering Week?

Using nukes is easy to rationalize if: - you are psychopathic, - you don’t intrinsically value life, - you don’t have to see the carnage & destruction caused by them, and - you don’t have to live with the environmental consequence of their use.

Anyone who talks about ‘wellness’ instead of ‘health’ or ‘medicine’ is selling you something and it’s usually snake oil.

Because I’m pedantic enough to answer the question: Jesus took the wheel. Both of them.

The President laid his hand on racist memes. Tim Scott is apparently going to follow.

If Newsom is running in the Democratic presidential primary, I don’t know who he thinks the primary voters are.

More than 1,000 American nurses have successfully applied for licensure in British Columbia since April, a massive increase over prior years. n.pr/4cMnDIm

Was it just me or was Trump passing out multiple CMHs at the State of the Union extremely repugnant? I honestly don’t care who he gives CMHs to. But at the #SOTU? He’s aggrandizing himself with their valor.

I hate listening to this guy blatantly lie about shit. #sotu

In related news: the astroid is desperately trying to avoid Earth.

Context: it was when DHS started canceling flights that Democrats caved on the last government shutdown. Of course, Noem was going to try to run a similar play.

You want McDonalds with Donald Trump or chaos with Flav? Chaos with Flav FTW!

For a year now, I’ve been saying judges should find the DOJ attorneys in civil contempt and put them in jail until the agencies they represent comply. Either the agencies will comply or they will run out of attorneys.

I’ll reiterate my standing advice: If you aren’t paid to listen to Trump’s speeches, turn them off.

My alarm went off this morning and I awoke with a cat sitting on my chest waiting for breakfast. Much to her dismay, I hit ‘snooze’ and slept another 45 minutes.

He’s a self obsessed narcissist. That’s why he refuses to be a bystander. He’s not doing it for your benefit.
