Pretty sure that the Agiliistas, those still trying to fly the Agile flag on their armada mast, have not noticed there isn't a person among them who isn't an ancient fossil. Take a clue guys.

Proposal for a new law: if you ever take any money from the US gov. Then later attack same gov. You need to return their money. US gov should just seize Tesla and hold an auction, let Warren Buffet buy it and install a real CEO, and deport fatass back to South Africa. Today...

X was already pretty stupid, but it's gotten even a LOT dumber in the last month. Nate Silver was over there making a bunch of preposterous statements about why abolishing daylight savings time is bad, and the people who came in and commented were SO stupid.

The main thing the Democrats should not do is fall into Defense only because Shitsalot and his side kick Apartheid Igor are throwing up so much crap. Man I am rooting hard for the SEC slapping cuffs on Leon.

Spent way too much time trying to figure out if the Bridge Fire is still burning, there's apparently an API now to the fire site in California, but the websites and maps are totally crap UX. Ok @latimes.com which I just resubscribed to, has a decent UX.

Ffs, #blueskydev can we get edit??? come on.. was this just following jack's circa 2008 about not allowing change? Can we write an edit that goes through a bot and the bot determines whether the intent was changed or not, and it's allowed 100% of the time if it was not?
