Fuck, and I cannot say this strongly enough, this shit.

Just one day after Apple Valley high school students walked out in protest of ICE.

"We're running out of good ideas," say the guys with the worst idea ever.

will every NFL game have a moment of silence or is that only for white supremacists who were presenting a racist rationale for our unfettered gun massacre culture when shot

Add, remove, or change a letter for your favorite sitcom to get rebooted in 2026 with an entirely different premise. Barley Miller

His one genuine skill in life is somehow always finding a way to stoop lower than you thought he could.

Spent too much time yesterday trying various ways to write to a microSD card that wouldn't let me do it. Mac problem? Windows didn't help. File-system perms? Not the issue. Turns out the hardware write-protection switch on the adaptor was broken. Put it in a different adaptor, problem solved.

🎶 I heard there was a secret Ford That bargain shoppers all ignored But you don’t really care for savings, do ya 🎶 Hello. This is the ghost of Leonard Cohen, inviting you to come on down to Ghost of Leonard Cohen Used Cars. I, of course, didn’t expect the afterlife to be this way.

Natural selection.

Damn, she lies badly.

The shootings are bad enough, but the misinformation or disinformation just makes it worse.

Went to the European Christmas Market at Union Depot this morning, and all I can tell you is that Europe is fucking cold.

@farmaid.org more like "far made" amiright

I strongly suggest you read this whole speech by Cory Doctorow. pluralistic.net/2025/12/05/p...

Mentally tuned out Morning Edition on MPR today, and dropped back in in the middle of a story about the prospect of repairing the Metrodome roof, and I was like ... has this whole Trump thing been a terrible nighmare? IS THIS COUNTRY STILL MODERATELY SANE? Sadly it was just a retrospective.

Yet another tragic case of elf-harm

Totally normal thing to do when you're definitely not out there committing a bunch of war crimes.

This is delightfully weird.

Probably bad when a legacy media outlet in the throes of a MAGA takeover brags about the creative ways it will ensure that nobody ever gets the same news.

Got a random reply from an account which turns out to be one of a handful of related AI "Shakespeare characters", and I never thought I'd be blocking Sir John Falstaff, but here we are.

Declaring war on "woke fonts", Marco Rubio has issued a memo telling all State Department employees to stop using Calibri and instead switch to exclusively typing things like PT Bridgeport

It's Fat Turkey Week in St. Paul.

You are carrying the water of right wing influencers. This is how they get legitimized. Your subsequent engagement is not worth it. Please, stop putting these people's faces next to your logo. There is no more balance. They are dragging you over the cliff into fascism. Stop running toward the edge.

An absolute horrific nightmare of two AI bots caught in a loop with each other is the perfect example of the total nothingness of AI “brains”.

I hate AI with a passion that's turning into caricature. Avoid it always. But I'm trying to curb my spending and wondered how much I spent at amazon in 2025. They won't tell you - only show you a list of orders. The only non-math option seemed to be to ask the goddamn amazon AI. It didn't go well.

I really want to know who's idea this was at the Asian market

these sexts are getting weirder

I guess riding lawn mowers for the golf courses counts as farm machinery now.

Farmers: Where’s MY bailout?! Dementia president: Here you go! Farmers, later: Where’s MY bailout?! Dementia president: Here you go!

And today I learned that Elon Musk has Minnesota lineage. But I'm not happy about it. #localangle

As a teenager, I used to hack GTE touchtone payphones in Los Angeles for free calls. You'd short the mike to the phone body with a paperclip, and then tap out the number on the cradle, making the same clicks a rotary phone's dial would make.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Arresting children. Bombing fishermen. Starving families. Stealing our money. Lying to our faces.

Remaining politically unbiased requires staying neutral on matters like evidence, relevant past behavior, clear patterns, obvious lies, and observable truth, which is worth remembering whenever somebody starts complaining about political bias.

Quoting for greater reach; please reply to Bob.

What if when the police showed up, they stood between ICE and their targets, demanding to see a warrant, and recording names and badges. THAT might be a “peaceful and calming presence”.

Gimme that damned brush. #OtisBDriftwood #CatsOfBluesky

Freudian Sslip.

Here's an idea: rather than burning a trillion on AI, why don't we spend it on teen scientists instead, since they apparently deliver faster than the machine?

I am embarrassed to state that, after months of sensible behavior, I fell for it again. 🫤
