As we all get bombarded with emails and texts about holiday sales, a reminder that there is a blackout happening from today through Monday. Pls consider at least not buying from major corporations during this time unless you think things are hunky dory.

You may be living in an absolutely racist country when 13-year-old Black boys are tried and sentenced as adults, but white dudes who *are* adults are called "kids" by JD Vance to shield them from culpability.

I know we have bigger problems, but when I find myself agreeing with MTG and applauding Carlson, my brain feels like scrambled eggs. Serious question: which way is up?

DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT. CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open. DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open. CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are. DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.
