Arrested for what? Handing out succulent golden doubloons?

Article 88 is such a pain in the butt. Really just adding salt to the wound with a two tiered justice system.

There is a class of veteran that goes incandescent with rage if you accuse them of an honor violation over something as low stakes as a paper. I remember a former ranger getting quickly ushered out of a room by coworkers when a customer accused him of lying.

So the policy is to make it easier for unmarried women and women who kept their last name than women who changed their name after getting married...did I get that right?

This story becoming common knowledge is not gonna end well for the CG. Especially as we roll into a DHS shutdown where ICE is sitting has a gigantic pot of BBB money and the USCG doesn't.

Let's start with CEOs.

For all the Sturm and Drang about Ukraine using the loaned weapons systems intelligently and safeguarding them and UKR citizens from missteps. We sure don't seem to care domestically.

Same shit the Navy said after Fat Leonard. Shouldn't have mattered then and it damn sure shouldn't matter now.

Always has and always will.

Can anyone give me One example of AI replacing a worker (and actually doing the work well enough) currently? Not Machine learning. Not "calls out to a Filipino data center when confused." Not work is checked by/made easier for a human. But a full on replacement of human.

What a craven, bootlicking, useless move. He will never like data. Because data doesn't necessarily fit his worldview.

Hey, article 1. Buddy. Listen. These officials work to enact the laws YOU pass. YOU put them in office. YOU have the power to remove them when they talk to you like that. Or ignore you. You have the power in this relationship even if they act like you don't.

The clear directive from donors is "suck less".

Non-lawyers: I cannot express just how abnormal it is for the DOJ to get no-billed repeatedly on these cases. Like tripping on a single blade of grass.

Apropos of nothing much, a reminder that Nixon’s Attorney General served 19 months in prison.

It is not the FAAs job to validate threat information coming in from other government agencies. Just like it's not the Judiciary's job to validate evidence submitted by the DOJ. The fact that both now have to is bad. And inefficient but mostly bad.

Appears to be over with the TFRs gone. And now the finger pointing starts. Government is serious business for serious people. These are not the decisions of serious people. My hope is that breaking the cardinal rule of capitalism (don't fuck with the money) will be enough to motivate senators.

Others have said everything I could say. It's weird. Very very very weird. It's very restrictive with no notice. It's shaped like one you would use for a danger to aircraft. But written like an administrative stop. If medevac don't fly, people die. And that's on whomever put the TFR up.

Jade Helm was never about government overreach. It was about it not being right government overreaching.

Who else finds it kinda funny that I spent my youth lying on the internet that I was older than 18 only to grow up to lie to discord that I am younger than 14 so discord can't leak my PII. (Stolen but too good not to share)

Perhaps by being forced to view the show more than once. To read the production notes, blocking, staging and correspondence. Potentially a translated transcript. They will start to underst.....hahahhahahahahah Sorry I couldn't finish it.

I know it's a broken record. But in any other administration this would be a huge deal with heads rolling.

Wait. They are (or were maybe) actually checking backgrounds?

If you have to wake up and choose not to act on your "gay thoughts" every single day, I have news for you, pet.

Maybe I've been misunderstanding religion. I was under the impression the entire point of most faiths is to consider how you will be viewed on judgement day. Or, at a minimum, how to be "good"

What exactly do they teach attorneys at law school cuz damn.

Hang this around MAGA's neck. This is absolutely what they voted for.

What's the hardest question you've gotten as a parent? I think "Why are they talking about bubbles in the stock market?" Threw me most recently. "Why did the police shoot that lady?" Gave my wife and troubles. The bad choices vs bad person is a hard line to hold.

"We are terrorizing and deporting the consumers, producers, and tax base for the good of the economy." I miss when I thought business analysts were smart. This public statement from an advisor to the president should be enough to tank the stock market.

Roflmao. I want to get the original picture on my phone for... Reasons. I'm still in a few group chats.

Conversely if the AI Bubble pops in time Gabe Newell will cement his position as the video game industry whisperer.

Bad Bunny show analysis

I may not have understood most of it. But I saw tacos, smiles, a wedding, a happy kid, dancing, and big words on a billboard with a simple message. And now I want tacos.

BREAKING: Louisiana Democrat Chasity Verret Martinez defeated her Republican opponent by double digits in the special election Saturday night for a state House seat in a district Trump won by 13 points in 2024. Martinez won 62% of the vote compared to 38% for her Republican opponent.

Leading Nazi Organizations at Trade Impasse, White House to Send Envoys

What a surprise. The Navy again. Wonder what the Ven Diagram of Fat Leonard officers and Epstein Island Officers looks like.

In the hierarchy of fuckups this is impressive. Especially since it didn't need to happen at all. Why the F are you messing with HER desktop? Let alone commanding a mid tier lie machine to do it.

Getting the guy known for having perfect pitch to sing the national anthem is a brilliant move and a flex.

Pretty sure it’s still me, actually, since nobody is gonna come up to you at a signing and tell you how much your slop meant to them.

I have never, in all of my life, in my many travels, in my most uncomfortable out of place social dealings ever had to apologize for being white. Baby I am neon white. Mayonnaise is spicy. I giggle when I get called "honey child" at the McDonald's drive through by the southern teller.

Saw a video of an immigration officer taking a gigantic pink dildo to the face whilst riding in a vehicle and it made me realize. Some day, without knowing exactly when, that poor officer will have taken his last dildo to the face. Life is so fleeting.

Does an American citizen performing at the Super bowl really "illustrate the nation's immigration divide" though? 🧐

personally i would like to see a D +30 election year in my lifetime

That last sentence waaaaay misses the mark

Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries. One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home. Abolish the billionaire class:

I said “I lost my faith in the army’s ability to make ethical decisions after Alex Vindman was purged for giving truthful testimony in response to a congressional subpoena and his brother was purged for being his brother”

And we continue the trend of breaking things that take a long time to fix. Not even two years ago you couldn't get promoted without at least trying to get a graduate degree. Remember when Mattis was so beloved because he studied? Remember when we tried to make service a profession?

"I Have Controls" Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.
