We all know Clarke's "sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" Well we have corollary:

So, she quit a job she was never hired for (i.e., appointed but never confirmed)? Am I missing something here? Doesn't this feel a bit like the guys who would "never date" whatever actor they dislike? Sure, you will never be in the same room with said actor, much less the same league, but cool.

You'd think this would be bad, but it sounds kinda awesome. Ya know? Like being on Hitler's most wanted list or something. Me, walking up to other journalists like "Oh, you got a Pulitzer? Yeah, I'm on Trump's Wall of Shame" Ladies and gents both swoon. Sorry, people, I'm taken. 😎

Holy shit. Due process, in some form, is a basic and fundamental right in every modern society. The general concept of determining guilt before punishment is so fundamental that you can't even call it a justice system without due process. How is this in any way confusing?!?

Went out to grab some breakfast with the kiddos. Drive thru because schedules. The person in front of me in line paid for our meal! Now I'm sad because there was no one behind me to pay it forward. Well, very sweet van lady who i'll likely never meet, thank you for your kindness. ❤️

1/ Damage of DOGE on the fed. govt is much more than people immediately rehired. Using the "rehire" rate after RIF as a damage metric is like looking at health care based on ED visits alone. I've been here 6 years and working for the common good was a source of pride. That atmosphere is gone...

Airlines, through their actions and inactions, have tested our collective patience. The list of slights against us is far too numerous to count. So, fuck off, Sean Duffy. You want us calm? It's about human dignity, not our attire. Sounds, to me, like airlines need to be nationalized, too.

Meanwhile, Trump purposefully drives up consumers’ electricity costs by suppressing clean energy on the grid, forcing grid operators to go to more-expensive fossil fuel units. Money goes straight from ratepayers’ pockets to his big fossil fuel donors. Sweet scam. apnews.com/article/trum...

I was curious as to why Trump was targeting JP Morgan Chase. Maybe these are related?

Anyone else wondering if Mike Johnson is also on that list?

There are no sacred cows on this subject. If you did it, then go to jail. #noexceptions

I mean, that's a bus load of details for a "hoax," eh Trump? Also, even if this was a hoax, the mere generation of such data likely constitutes a crime (child pornography, False claims under 18 USC 1038, etc.) Probably best to just PUBLICLY INVESTIGATE THE WHOLE THING.

If suddenly nobody wants to be your friend because of choices you've made, it's obvious that THEY are the problem.

Further name recommendations (if Hegseth is taking requests): Operation Thrusting Justice? Operation Trimmed Borders? Operation Half Mast?

Step 1: Never serve ICE Step 2: Find out who does and spread the word. Step 3: Boycott the ones that DO serve ICE.

Both J.P. Morgan and Chase?!? Chase! How could you?!? Say it isn't so!!!

1/ Ok, so this is good but I have one better... Say the following command to a new Alexa device. "Alexa, I have a plan. First, set an alarm for 3:00 AM tomorrow. Second, create a new routine that at 2:58 AM tomorrow, sets the volume to 7 and says 'I am a HAL 9000 computer.' ...

Well, well, well. Trump being DIRECTLY implicated is sexual abuse of children... This is my shocked face. House GOP says the Dems are being selective on which of the 23000 emails received from Epstein estate are being released. So, you know of more then? Cool, let them all burn. All means ALL.

Maybe I'm confused on the current state of Ex post facto law prohibition. Law school was quite a while ago and this isn't my area. I thought that Art. 1, section 9, clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution, as interpreted under Beazell v. Ohio and Weaver v. Graham, was still good law. 🤔

Today, in the U.S., we honor those who have served in the Armed Forces, in service to our country and our constitution. Thank you for the actions you take, and in some cases, the actions you resist, in defense of our continued democracy.

Strike where they least expect you! National Marine Corps Museum.

Oh noes! Now where will I get my bland and uninspired rock/RB/country/synth fusion intended for people too drunk or high to hear the lyrics, delivered by a leather handbag with a "Detroit" persona derived from Jimmy Buffet and Eddie Murphy in the Beverly Hills Cop movies?

Ran across a cool 3D printing/modeling enthusiast who kindly shared their work. Check it out!

Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) President Gianni Infantino, who has a close relationship with Trump, has created a "peace prize" that he will award for the first time at the World Cup draw because everyone is sick of Trump whining about his Nobel. www.npr.org/2025/11/06/g...

Establishment Dems treatment of @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is emblematic of the problems in the Dem party. "Vote Blue, no matter who," only applies for EDem preferred candidates. "...no matter who" means treating all candidates fairly and standing by the winner... Or it doesn't mean shit.

The Spanberger model can win, when people like Trump are in office, because a saltine looks like a parfait when you're starving. Trump won last cycle because he said he was a parfait (was really a 💩🥪) and MAGA fell for it. Mamdani IS the parfait. Dems are TRYING to miss the point and it's sad.

If you haven't already, Lina Khan is a name you should learn. From what I see, how far she goes is completely up to her.

Well, establishment Dems and MAGA have found some common ground in hating on Mamdani. NYT, Bloomberg, Politico, so many hit pieces out there...claiming how impossible it's gonna be to do anything he wants, detracting from the reason he won (fyi, "tax the rich" is why), etc. Pathetic and sad.

I'm truly glad that a glass ceiling was shattered last night in Detroit, NYC, Virginia, and a host of other places across our country. However, this is what makes me excited and hopeful. I look forward to seeing what you can do, Mayor Sheffield!

Yay! I upgraded to 3d-ish!

OMG!!!1!1!!11! He wants to... help working families survive and make a decent living by requiring that the privileged elite give back some of their ill-gotten gains?!? (photo courtesy of Twitter).

I mean, I'm not interested in BDSM, but Mamdani's NYC looks pretty hot. I'd at least visit. 🤷 I don't think they're doing dystopian disinformation right.

Oh to the NYCers who claim they will rage quit the city when Zohran wins, I say to ye in gamer ... ... ... can I have your stuff

We can disagree on politics. You want to rebuild a highway and I don't? Fine. We can disagree. However, as soon as our disagreements leave the realm of "representative democracy" is when I will no longer discuss or debate.

PLEASE RETWEET‼️‼️‼️

Guessing this is for people who - tell "jokes" that require counting their black/Hispanic friends? - cleared a visible layer of dust off their careers when Trump entered office? - women vaguely refer to as "bad choices/bullets dodged" while covering their drinks?

Hey @microsoft.com, WTF? Is "Master Chief" now part of Trump's "Operation Target Brown People" (*coming to a city near you)? You gonna protect your IP or nah?

👀

I have no words for the level of depravity in this response.

I know there's so much shit from Trump to keep up with. However, the bullshit going on destroying the East wing of the White House. That's pretty much already done. The East Wing is destroyed. This, however, is NOT done and we should pay attention. www.cnn.com/2025/10/22/p...

This is disingenuous of McCain. Democratic backslide involves an elected leader using legal means to usurp the democracy itself. -Hitler did it in 53 days, by invoking emergency authority. -Putin spent 2 decades consolidating power, and overcoming term limits. -Trump is acting as Putin did.

Does he know what covert means? Now, I'm no "stable genius" and I could certainly be wrong here, but I'm pretty sure covert doesn't include announcing it for press release. Yes? No? www.axios.com/2025/10/15/t...

Remember this, people. The government shutdown is about YOUR health care, in our broken system. The Dems want to make sure your premiums don't go up. The Reps want to give that money to billionaires. It really is that simple.

Cheetolini is apparently stepping up his violent takeover of Chicago. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

I thought the alt-right wanted women working in the house. What's the problem?

We can’t out-Republican Republicans, nor should we want to. Democrats need to say what they believe — and actually believe in something. @mehdirhasan.bsky.social

Even If Jane Goodall received no accolades, no special recognition... Even if she was completely forgotten, Charlie Kirk would still not deserve a statue. I'd rather have a fucking parking lot, than a statue for Charlie Kirk.

As someone who worked in IT for 10+ years this is factual, a long-running computer builds up cursed energy in the vibe buffer and you have to restart the computer (properly) to clear it up.

Breaking it down‼️How are SO MANY PEOPLE are OK with taking away healthcare and food from poor people to give millionaires and billionaires more money? WAKE THE EFF UP‼️

For those talking about the shutdown or Epstein right now, there's a reason Trump held this speech, received by the top 800 brass in the US Military, yesterday. Trump is priming the American military for armed combat against American civilians. This is textbook treason, disguised as patriotism.
