I have it on good authority (mine) that this album is going to be very good

pretty sure Calibre will keep transferring files to my decade+ old Kindle just fine!

so many of my clients believe that a document can't have any legal effect unless it is sent by certified or registered mail. I'd like to know whence this idea emerges

The number of nursing homes and retirement communities owned by private equity is unclear because they are usually held as part of a real estate income trust alongside multifamily housing, student dorms, trailer parks, and storage units"

it's hack shit of course but the thing is, guys like him and hamburger (lol) and epstein (double lol) wouldn't have the prominence that they do have were it not for liberal legal academia's acceptance of these guys as legitimate colleagues when it comes to hiring and promoting them

Helen Andrews...such a Season One villain

"Switzerland does not have US bases, but the American military has requested to fly through its airspace. In typical Swiss fashion, the government cited the law of neutrality in rejecting two requests but waved through three others."

Be Cool About Fire Safety (1995) : 310s

Death to the Zionist Entity, btw

400 dead so far, over 1000 injured, dozens and dozens missing. This is one hour into the massacre. I have no idea what the death toll will be in the end. Also, they have announced “another wave” of attacks coming

Anyone who participates in any way in this evil, is also a war criminal. It is not just Trump. It’s the entire administration, the entire army apparatus from the bottom to the top. History will not judge anyone kindly for “just following orders.”

tankies came up with “anti-bedtime aktion” like a decade or more ago cmon don’t give this one to the libs

1993 VHS • Body Flex Vol 2: The 15 Minute Workout 60 FPS : 577s

I'd heard late 2000s aesthetics were making a return, but I didn't imagine it could be this extreme

synchronicity

Once you stop thinking of ‘science’ as an honorific there’s no fear over calling eugenics, medical racism, IQ, etc. ‘science’: they were empirical theories first posited and then empirically tested by scientists. But notably, they are all resoundingly refuted by the evidence. Dust bin of history

looks like today's brainworm is going to be 'China Miéville' in the voice from Duck Sauce's "Barbra Streisand"

committing war crimes on a for-profit Mastodon instance

hadn't thought about annoying Twitter account "Policy Tensor" in quite a while. someone here recently shared one of his Substack posts about the Iran War, which included the statements "Grok was able to answer in the affirmative" and "Grok estimates that the supremely important rate at which..."

in terms of Norrisslop, it's hard to beat Top Dog (1995), in which he plays a cop partnered with a dog, and a man wearing a clown mask does a forward flips and fires an uzi, but I have a soft spot for the following year's Forest Warrior, in which he's a kind of frontiersman Captain Planet

while it certainly can't be reduced to just this, it does feel like the apparent sharp spike in explicitly antisemitic attitudes, as a way to nebulously link Iran, Gaza, and Epstein is partially a product of an incapacity to process polycrisis. too much happening at once: need one explanation!

Imperialism and capital, famously separate from climate change

Cesar Chavez's recently-revealed abuses can be seen as a particularly horrifying example of a more general phenomenon of men in liberation movements conceptualizing their fight as one against the denial, due to their racial/ethnic othering, of what they see as their proper masculine prerogatives

you've fucked up bad if Adam Smith is taking a position against sending more money to Boeing

it would be grimly funny if Joe Kent ran for Congress on an "anti-(((war)))" platform and won in a rematch against Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, who has voted with Trump 63.2% of the time

Lost among the many other horrors of 2026, Israel is attempting to create another Nakba in Lebanon, no one is even attempting to explain or justify this, they're just bombing and killing and taking

I think my only strongly-held Oscars opinion is that there is absolutely no way Sentimental Value is a better film then It Was Just an Accident or The Secret Agent

I had a lot more to say about The Bride! (2026) than I expected.

my 77-year-old father, born and raised in New York City, has recently started using "y'all" in group text messages, and I find it genuinely a bit concerning

I recall people saying that the suggestion ICE had quotas was paranoid speculation

“Haitian security forces, with support from Vectus Global, have carried out anti-gang operations using drones strapped with explosives, often in densely populated parts of the capital ​Port-au-Prince. Vectus Global is a private U.S.-based military company led by Blackwater founder Erik Prince.”

Honolulu (Oahu) and Kahului (Maui) are forecast to pick up about half their annual rainfall in less than 5 days, with most of it falling in 48 hours or less.

A man who was shot by Connecticut police last year and later died had to wait 10 extra minutes for another ambulance to arrive at the scene, after another officer having an anxiety attack took the first one.

Okay I guess I'm not sure I understand. The idea is that, gas prices have skyrocketed because of Trump's incredibly expensive and unpopular war. So, the Democrats will lower gas prices, which will make the war more expensive, and also more popular?

TPUSA is teaming up with Google and NextEra in both municipal and statewide races in Arizona, in part to control the future of a gigantic, publicly owned water and power utility, the Salt River Project. Note the coalition here. Masks are coming off at the utility and energy intersection.

eric hague says when the pandemic assistance program rent help MN closed in first quarter of 2022, homeline had 415 financial aid inquires. in the last 3 months, due to the ICE surge in minnesota, they've had 590 inquires, 42% more than during the most distressed post-pandemic quarter

"...and what do you call the act?" "Energy Security!"

7/ some countries maintain “strategic petroleum reserves” (SPRs). The US one is closely watched & was extensively used after Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 to manage down gas pump prices. However, it hasn’t been fully replenished, is at 60% capacity or 1/3 what China is estimated to have in its SPR

All the best oracle are saying, Donald, if you invade PERSIA, a great empire will fall! We love our ORACLES, especially as regards to Delphi and Future! thank you for your attention to this matter!

sentiments like the one in the quoted invariably prompt replies like this, but the latter in no way contradicts the former. it can at the same time be true that the way people can reflect very negatively on them, and also that this 'voters bad' cannot absolutely not be an electoral party's analysis

Allow @amylittlefield.bsky.social to introduce you to self-admitted virgin pastor who ended abortion in Texas and is working to ban it nationwide. Mark Lee Dickson has a collection of teddy bears that play audio from women's ultrasounds and doesn't appear in public without a backwards baseball hat

not another single day living outside of prison for Hegseth, Miller, Rubio, Trump, and Vance

Getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries At ease Eating well No more microwave dinners and saturated fats A patient, better driver A safer car Baby smiling in back seat Sleeping well, no bad dreams

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

41 killed in pursuit of an ultranationalist hallucination

While strategic petroleum reserves can cushion against immediate impacts of the US/Israeli war against Iran, people really have not prepared for fertiliser shortages and what that may mean for food cycles in the coming year: (Source: Bloomberg newsletter 6 March)
