Interests include history, esp. the Great War and the years surrounding it. War games of many types. An endless list of things fascinate me, but I have to work for a living, making my daily bread.

I mean, I can understand praying over his cold corpse. That'd be fine. But being in the presence of a minion of Beelzebub, Lord of Flies (Lord of Lies) should have been repugnant to an actual servant of Christ.

NEW: Bishop William Joensen of Des Moines said the White House used a private prayer with President Trump “for partisan political purposes.” Milwaukee Archbishop Jeffrey Grob apologized Sunday. Pressure is building on the remaining 10 bishops to walk back their participation.

hey...he's making bank. what's the problem? you aren't making bank? but HE is. don't you understand? he's all that matters! you don't even exist!

As President Trump lines his own pockets and those of his billionaire friends, millions of working families are paying the price of a cost-of-living crisis he created. It’s time to investigate Trump’s profits, end the war in Iran, and bring down costs for American families.

Does it condense you time spent chewing? If not, why not?

I had my AI agent create an app called “Lunch” to help me with decision fatigue and boost my productivity. It has a few pictures of things I might like to eat. Tapping one spawns a subagent to order that item on Uber Eats and 60-90 minutes later I’m eating. It’s 600 thousand lines of JavaScript.

Would you trust the review made by a clever parrot? All AI is, is a Next Word Guesser. One that hallucinates and is often wrong. But if that's ok with you, then go for it, I guess.

JFC--they are telling us to turn over one of our most important tasks as researchers to AI. This is appalling. I also imagine someone is making money here......

What about a REAL diplomat professional???

POLITICO Europe@politico.eu

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk today scoffed at a report that the Trump administration views former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán as a candidate to be U.N. secretary-general.

Lula! He isn't perfect, but he sure as hell is better than that disgusting ghoul from the undead Bolsonaro family! Cope and seethe MAGA! Get used to losing more - you've had so much practice lately!

Not sure why anyone would take a known liar and grifter at his word. His word is worthless.

First Musk said he did not disable Starlink for Ukraine. Now he's confessing to disabling it but says he was justified in doing so. Congress, if you can hear me, we need hearings when Dems take over. www.cnn.com/2026/10/25/e...

I have to admit, this made me laugh out loud! I laughed and laughed, people thought I cracked up. I told them why I was laughing and they didn't believe me. So I showed them. They laughed too! We have bypassed Bizarro World, we are somewhere else entirely now...

shauna@goldengateblond.bsky.social

someday anthropologists will call this era the dumbassic period www.tmz.com/2026/10/25/n...

I second that! Nobody wants another disgusting Bolsonaro. Every member of that family is corrupt and a willing lapdog of Trump.

Please, Brazil, give the planet a break and spare the rest of humanity a Bolsonaro redux. 🙏 'Nearly 159m Brazilians will vote in the election’s runoff on Sunday, with the pair tied in the polls after Bolsonaro won the first round on 4 October by 47% to 45%.' www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

As a gay man born in 1963, I agree. I would only add that we should not be standing on our wins while our Trans friends are going through the same oppression and demonization we fought. We are strong together!

Every aspect of life as a gay man is unimaginably better than it was when I was born in the mid 80s. We beat the plague that was killing us by the hundreds of thousands and then won broad social and civic equality.

We had a few of these in Chicago while I was a kid. They'd always show up in the 26th Street Pet Parade that my faily never missed (late 60s, early 70s)

Rare 1967 Amphicar model 770 designed by Hans Trippel and manufactured in West Germany from 1960 to 1965, switching from water to road using a Triumph Herald engine and twin rear propellers at 7 knots on water and 70 mph on land (hence “Model 770”). IG: @gearheadbrand

Vive L'empereur! Looks amazing. Sounds like a good time too. have fun, and trounce those Prussians! (otherwise 1914 will be a very bad year for all)

Ken Reilly@yarkshiregamer.bsky.social

The French are on the way to the Leeds Wargames Club annual FIASCO #Wargames show at the Royal Armouries Museum on Sunday, are you ? Yarkshire Gamer will be on the 1st floor with the Franco Prussian War game, see you there. #wargaming #history #hobby

Well said, Greta. The only reason Bolsonero has a chance is the help he's getting from Orange Grandpa Nero. That messing around to enrich his minions has consequences.

BladeoftheSun@bladeofthes.bsky.social

Greta Thunberg comes out to support Lula "If Bolsonaro wins, it will be a disaster for the entire planet... Latin America is not for sale. The eyes of the world are on you Brazil, we are counting on you."

That fits Lonny's M.O. He's a liar and a coward and a grifter, and I'd bet good money that it will be traced back to his filthy money.

Also, the company that did the mailers is linked to several shell companies, and the entities are unknown. This is how you know it was done by a rich person to try to affect the election in the state of Texas.

Well, remember that Dear Leader is actual human garbage, ok?

Angry Donkey News@angrydonkeynews.bsky.social

Trump flew to Iowa to trash Josh Turek. Trump dodged the draft 5 times. Josh's father didn't. He enlisted at 18. 22 months in Vietnam. Came home exposed to Agent Orange. That's why Josh has spina bifida. "I’m an example of the generational consequences of these forever wars."

TL;DR: Bebe prepares to continue genocide, now in West Bank any coverage risks death of journalists. UN will protest impotently US will pay for the bullets Blood will stain Israeli and American hands again (still) and history will assign guilt. Your legacy, Trump, is as a murderer

Randy Fair@southerngayteacher.bsky.social

They will do in the West Bank the same thing they did in Gaza: “Netanyahu said the military would go house to house and demolish homes in an operation on a scale unseen in the occupied West Bank for decades.” Collective punishment is illegal! www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

IOF murders thousands of civilians in Gaza, almost ZERO coverage. Palestinian soldiers fight IOF troops and it's ARMAGEDDON! NYT = garbage media

flyingrodent@flyingrodent.bsky.social

Things to note here: if two guys attack and kill soldiers, you can just announce “a major offensive” against entire neighbourhoods and towns, even if you are an occupying power. Are there good, admirable historical examples of this kind of behaviour?

Let's remember that Rubio comes from a family thrown out of Cuba by the Cuban people. They had no further use for exploiters, That made Lil' Marco's mommy & daddy angwy. So Lil' Marco is angwy. Now millions must suffer so Lil' Marco can stomp around like a big boy and steal Cuba.

Forget Iran for now: he means they’re strangling 11 million civilians because toppling their government would make him personally look good.
