Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

The State Board of Elections’ last-minute changes to voting by mail are leading to thousands more absentee ballots being rejected this election - at a rejection rate twice as high as in 2022. It’s infuriating. North Carolinians, please make a plan to vote this year, in person if possible.

A Florida man was found dead in his home during a welfare check in July 2022. Weeks later, one of the officers who discovered his body moved into the home and spent years impersonating him, according to investigators.

Nothing pithy or view-from-nowhere-journalisty to say about this. Pete Hegseth needs to be removed from public office, at a bare minimum, and as soon as possible.

I've been thinking about this photo all day. Considering how the Trump administration is constantly ranting about Communists, and how Pete Hegseth is always nattering on about our WARFIGHTERS, it's genuinely crazy to me that this image exists. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-kowt...

I teach Persepolis by the very recently late Marjane Satrapi. The book begins with a flashback to the closing of the bilingual schools and universities and the required wearing of the veil that began the oppression of the Iranian people (especially girls and women) as the Islamic Revolution began.

The Mirror US: Iran's not the only country to ignore Trump's threats. We've seen Canada do it, China, Europe, of course Iran. Trump is getting ignored around the world, because he has no credibility and he is very weak. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

my girls have decided to construct a universe where Jolene is the villain of *every* Dolly song. Jolene stole Dolly's real job, so she had to work some regular ol; 9 to 5 Islands in the stream? Probably where Jolene buried Dolly's man. Here You Come Again? JOLENE RETURNS. FOR BLOOD. etc

Costco runs it's own rigorous food inspection program. And they didn't bend the knee on DEI. Plus, they dropped Callaway Golf after their horrific ad depicting violence against women. And they are refusing to carry trump meat. So that's where I'll be shopping.

Mamdani is succeeding in part by projecting joy Ossoff is succeeding in part by projecting steely ferocity We’re in a moment when attitude is nearly as powerful as ideology, because we all need courage. And these are two ways of summoning it

The entire Dem, GOP, & media establishment put its thumb on the scale & said Hong was scary and unelectable. Evers is the kingmaker who came out & gave Crowley the last-second push. Mistake not to spend $$ on TV. Disproportionate coverage on Thanksgiving gaffe. Voila, half a point loss or so.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Trump: "We heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack and they blame it on Iran. I don't think so. I blame it on Minnesota because they're grossly incompetent. Iran's got bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota."
