I've started a new, idk what to call it, "thing" within my head. When i see some bs right wing stuff about someone "dropping a bomb" or "dropping a nuke" or something like that i add "in his pants" and suddenly the story actually seems plausible.

@gregdoucette.bsky.social I'm starting to feel like maybe cops aren't that great overall

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.

Musk wants to be a government contractor because he's fucked otherwise, but at the same time he's proving to the entire world that his services aren't dependable. He's already replacing himself and his companies in that space as competitive businesses are started up, esp. in Europe

It's hard not to take the Ukrainian strike that knocked out a data hub in Russia, which also damaged the Russian ability to run their bot farms, as an enormous Ukrainian style middle finger to Putin and Trump. They had to have an idea this would happen.

So, I got a refund from AT&T today after canceling my internet service. Its a grand total of $3.17. Fine, whatever, it's my money if I overpaid I want it back...except, and this is just pure AT&T corpo bullshit....the sons of bitches send out "debit cards" to provide their refunds...

risk by payment processors that handle transactions for businesses, they're frequently banned by them. So, tomorrow I'll be grabbing a magnifying glass and reading the excruciatingly small print on the card and it's attendant contract to find if I can request a check or direct deposit.

otherwise, the refund will just be profit for the 3rd party contractor that AT&T sold it too. This is the kind of shit a functional congress could do something about....but unfortunately the United States hasn't had one of those for awhile. Luckily...I suppose...for me, I exist out of spite.

So, I have this damned prepaid debit card with $3.17 on it, and hoops to jump thru to get it to work (activation, identifying the expiration, any fees) and the kicker is these aren't likely to work where I'd want to use it for the 3.17. Because prepaid cards like this are considered a big fraud

Oh Magdalena, let me in Don't leave me stranded at your door. Things are different, things have changed, Things aren't the way they were before! My father told me, the sky would hold me, But I would get another chance! And now this yearning, the Earth is burning, I'm feeling giddy for romance!

Here come the fire and the brimstone, Here come the soldiers up the stairs! Boy-scouts rounding up the virgins, Scream their anthem in your ear! Throw out the caviar and oysters, Tonight we're dining on the pearls! Oh, Magdalena, let me in. This is the twilight of the world.

Let's go out dancing, like Salome. Use our christian names in vain! Spin into madness, drown our sadness, And throw our bodies in the flames! In the barrooms, in the bedrooms People lookin for a fix! The ground is humming, with second coming, And third and fourth and fifth and sixth!

The sign of seven, a rift in Heaven, Resurrection of the dead! The sky is falling, women balling, And all this Rapture in your head! There's the whistle, hear the whistle, Hear that old, familiar sound! Women screaming, rich men dreaming, Eleven miles underground!
