well shit... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

A maternity ward doctor donated his own blood during surgery to keep a pregnant patient alive. One woman gained fewer than 10 pounds over her entire pregnancy. Another collapsed and had seizures during labor.

accidentally had Washington Post on Autopay for like 4 fucking years - profoundly pissed off about it....supported a weasel's caving to a bully and neglecting real media - FML

in my heart of hearts, I am hoping MAGA has that same uneasy feeling in their pit of their stomach tonight after that #trumpspeech that I had when Joe Biden took the debate stage. I doubt it - self-reflection isn't their strong suit - but I hope to god it made some of them as sick as it made us

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along

Donald Trump as as vile and disgusting a human being as I hear he smells.

I think it's safe to say this year is tracking to be one of the worst since 2020 for me. Every year I do that "it's been a long December and there's reason to believe maybe this year will be better than the last" in my head melody and it never fucking is - if I'm lucky I break even

If I was 1 of the 218 voting to discharge I would not go up in any tall buildings, get on any boats, hop in any small aircraft, or even leave my freaking office till it's over. Seriously. They killed Epstein to keep this quiet and the full force of weaponized Trump DOJ and FBI will try as well.

in an effort to get rid of a lingering cough I tried at the wife's suggestion a nicotine lozenge - and man...that was a short but definite trip

to everyone who showed up to protest today on #nokings day - thank you so very much - please keep it going

Windows 10 End of Life is in less than 2 weeks! But you don't have to upgrade to Windows 11!! This video will show you how to extend the life of Windows 10 by 3 more years via Extended Security Updates program safely, for free. MS throws you to the wolves, but the wolves will throw you a bone.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Part of me wants to build a new pc to run Win 11 but the other part of me has been on Linux for years and Win10 has been my backup which...with the advent of Steam's advanced proton and wine emulators, increasingly unnecessary

Pete’s gonna need the bartender to pour doubles after the lovely reception his generals gave him today. Just save yourselves time, bartender, and leave the bottle

today was a pretty awful day - I won't elaborate, and I know it wasn't my fault, but it sucked pretty bad. Please post kitties....and please, please don't let your kitties go outside if you can help it - accidents happen

so has anyone figured what Fox Newscast or moron in his mom's basement triggered Grumplestilken's putting tariffs on furniture and trucks for no stupid reason today

so basically the FBI couldn't do anything for two days, then they released photos, and the kid's dad ratted him out after calling his church first to do damage control maybe replacing skilled field agents with loyal chuds wasn't the best detective work

I reject political violence, period.

slightly diminish a book Grapes of Irritation

I think it is safe to say there is a world in which everything didn’t go to shit and it didn’t start with bird site allowing over 140 characters

starting the wonderful and scary world of starting to look at Juniper Routers and configuration because it seems to be a big vendor in some of the future employment spaces I am looking at

cancelled an Amazon order after watching the movie Union and seeing a billion dollar company participate in Union busting tactics. I can do better even with a company in AK that charges a crapton for shipping

It’s like the whole Cracker Barrel thing was “we need a win for the base so let’s manufacture an utter bs controversy and claim victory” and the left is just like “I don’t give a shit and never did” but they just needed another culture was win even if it is out of orange cracker’s ass

I can't tell you all how nice and peaceful the neighborhood around Annunciation Catholic School was. What a heartbreak

God have mercy this was 5 minutes from where I lived in Minneapolis - a really nice quiet peaceful neighborhood and I walked or went to businesses across the street almost every day www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Good for Travis and Taylor

TBH I am not a big fan of rebranding like what Cracker Barrel did but after living thru the trauma of New Coke that is to be expected but it sure as fuck isn’t “woke” to it

No cheating. Post the last photo of your pet (fur baby)

This isn't going away donnie rotten hands!

the bad news is Trump won't be eligible for a Nobel prize for his performance today but the good news is Putin may get a Grammy for playing him like a Russian Fiddle

Trump's a chump....again - played like a Russian fiddle.

some really big protests tonight - bigger than any I have seen in support of Ukraine - I wish the pieces of crap had to drive thru and see it

wife overwhelmed with school for tomorrow so I snuck the burnt French Bread Pizza she made for me by her - :)

Slightly diminish a band The Grammar Police

I put the odds at more than zero he arrives back in DC waving a piece of paper proclaiming "Peace in our Time" because his people are way too stupid to know history

Here is the deal. I miss the old guy and the raw deal he got but the new Superman is pretty cool too

JFC what will give out first, that decrepit black heart or the republic

Facing a hard decision about my career and work as a network engineer. Circumstances have essentially rendered me a 2nd class employee unable for promotion, lateral moves, and at risk of layoff or firing due to a location strategy on steroids. Breaks my heart but I think I know what I have to do

The fucking stupidity and corruption of this orange shit stain would be considered a bad caricature in any fictional depiction but it is real and he is becoming more incompetent and corrupt every day, wiling to parole sex traffickers to give himself and his own sins cover. Jesus h fucking Christ

@asharangappa.bsky.social or someone, could you explain to me how likely or probably it is that right now there is some rewritinggoing on in the Epstein Files - how viable is it especially with compliant FBI/DOJ who has already gone thru and flagged a certain guy's entries?

fun fact - ICE agents were housed recently at a hotel someone I know was at. After they trashed the pool area and eight prostitutes were thrown out - they were locked down and you needed your key badge for all entry into the hotel - it was like a bad business convention for the Gestapo

I always wish I could do things that are really once in a lifetime things - like attend university in Dublin, Honolulu, AND Tokyo

Of course if videos of Trump really did show up in the Epstein files, it wouldn’t really make a difference

Can't believe Epstein didn't have a dead man's switch. Can you imagine one day a torrent with all the kompromat just dumped on the internet and all the most powerful people in the world just have to watch it happen? What a waste

I never got to meet Ian Coldwater but they did a couple good things for me and the Mpls community and I miss seeing them online. Hope they are ok

I am disappointed as hell in Murkowski. She's my senator and I was hoping she had enough independence to buck this turd, but I'm sure in many ways they were blackmailing her with Federal funds for Alaska as much as they were trying to bribe her. Still Disappointing AF to see her cave like that

I will never again go to a state that has a concentration camp so fuck off Florida

another impotent performance from the orange skidmark. Sad! Weak! - (also stupid to begin with)
