I have watched 6 hours of a DOGE bro deposition. The whole thing, start to finish. It's a fascinating, and horrifying, look at the people who caused so much damage, didn't really achieve anything at all, while still being so sure they are right. Here's what they said: www.404media.co/i-watched-6-...

"Jennifer Schuessler has meticulously documented the destruction since the beginning... But there’s something about seeing a callow young man blank out when asked why he destroyed so much that really brings home the mindless destruction of this campaign." www.lawandchaospod.com/p/doge-bros-...

there is a child-like naivety to the way business leaders approach sociopolitical problems that would be really sweet if it wasn't coming from the leader of a company with 30,000 employees and 3 billion dollars in revenue

I only know it's Lent from all the ads I see for fast food fish sandwiches.

Can't wait for the taxpayers to somehow pay for this problem.

you can tell Wired has been doing good journalism lately because there's been increased whining by the extraction class about how Wired mysteriously changed in the decade since tech titans fully revealed themselves as sociopaths from this recent Dorsey interview:

As of today, 30 states, including DC, have announced that they are no longer going to follow CDC's recommendations for some or all childhood vaccines. www.kff.org/other-health...

Well well well. Thanks to @gailsimone.bsky.social, guess who’s joining the lineup for the Joco Cruise next week! No, not @scalzi.com. He’s already on it. No it’s me! I’m going! In your face, @crobertcargill.bsky.social!!! They’re adding my info as we speak. jococruise.com/guests/

“undercuts President Trump’s assertion that Iran could be to blame” UNDERCUTS. Still can’t write a headline that says “Gibbering baboon makes pronouncements that have no connection to reality”

This is where the real humiliation kink comes in. He asked. They lied out of vanity and we get to see how pathetic they all are.

NEW: DHS is requesting access to the government’s “most powerful people-finder system,” which contains the name, address, Social Security number, employer, and salary or wages of every employed person in the country — as well as sensitive information on children and domestic violence victims.

today at the World Metaphors Classic the leader of the USA didn't bother to find out the details of the situation his team was in and blindly assumed they would win a matchup they ended up losing, jeopardizing their long-term standing for no good reason

Shocking to find out DOGE members are like Elon in that they seem to be both morons and racists.

NEW: A recently developed Defense Department program was meant to reduce civilian harm during military operations. But months before the Iran war, the mission was dissolved as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth made “lethality” a top priority. By @hannahallam.bsky.social

Earlier I implied that I escorted yo' momma through the Strait of Hormuz. I apologize for the misinformation. Yo' momma's too fat for such a narrow passageway and whatnot.

Wrap it up, everybody, we had a good run

Someone pointed out to me last weekend that the Brak maquette was crazy expensive. It is. But how much is my prototype, then? And how much more would it be if I signed it?

how is "mayor chooses his words carefully" a NYT story but "president chooses his words like a haunted magic 8 ball on meth" not

Are we still looking for waste, fraud, and abuse? I think I found some.

I don't want to automate my job away, nor do I want everyone doing "bAcK bReAkInG LaBoR," I want more of us to be doing a small part of important things like growing food instead of wasting energy on all the extra nonsense involved in things like "logistics" and "brand strategies"

Listen, I have been friends with a lot of people who went to school or work unsober, and this bro is baked. This is a baked bro.

A WSJ investigation tracked the U.S. citizens caught in the crosshairs of an aggressive federal campaign to detain and demonize dissenters. on.wsj.com/3PoQMj5

Last year, this guy (left) from DOGE used ChatGPT to find NEH grants that were too “DEI” for Trump, and canceled them, including mine, as shown by the letter I received last April (right). Huge new NYT article on the back story link below

The 17-page executive order Peter Ticktin is lobbying Trump to sign would completely upend how Americans vote and have their ballots counted in an unprecedented attempt to usurp powers that the Constitution gives to states and Congress.

Country singer Maren Morris: "I don’t have forgiveness for any of the Trumpers. You voted for this. He is a dementia-ridden, diaper-clad, cornball, ex-TV host, bankrupt to fuck. And you got bamboozled, and I get it, like, Fox News is a propaganda machine of just Cocomelon brain rot for boomers."

Four of Denver’s most renowned young Mexican-American chefs will spend all day Sunday cooking brisket tacos, carnitas, carne asada and more to raise funds for the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition, serving food to anyone who donates.
