You are naive in the extreme if you believe that a single person with real power will be prosecuted for corruption or graft after this administration is out. 1) there’s no guarantee that the GOP won’t win the next presidential election. 2) no democrat will actively pursue any of this.

Only 19 Days until THIS:

I ate kosher to break the fast for the first time in my life last night. And it was a carne asada burrito, and a quesadilla (yes this was in a separate container and didn’t use the same salsa container). No none of this was intentional.

My 9 year old is, somehow, going through a major Michael Jackson phase at the moment and keeps asking me *precisely* why I don't listen to his music. In the middle of trying to navigate this delicate conversation my 6-year-old walked in and asked me if I was alive during World War 2 It is 8.34am

we're really approaching a perfect storm of factors designed to drive up the costs of everything right now while simultaneously undermining the spending power of the global consumer economy. i'm not saying that to doom, it's not like nothing can be done, but we're looking at years of ramifications.

I've seen a lot of posts about how shitty the bomb was and folks, if someone makes a bomb that blows up when they want it to blow up they are automatically in the top like, 1% of bomb-guys

The New York Times@nytimes.com

Fellow soldiers say the Army sergeant who detonated a homemade bomb packed into a Tesla Cybertruck in front of the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas could have done far more harm. Investigators are trying to figure out why he didn’t.

Democrats’ top priority is fumbling the bag. Their second top priority is saying it’s the focus groups who made them fumble the bag.

David Zaslav, like so many other execs in creative industries and beyond, can’t imagine that something can be thriving and essential if it’s not growing exponentially forever.

Love Actually (2003) is a beloved Christmas classic but what many fans don’t realise is that the country it’s set in, “England”, wasn’t just made up for the film - it actually exists! It has a population of 69 million people and its chief export is gas turbines.

For those going home to visit family this weekend: • Samsung calls it Auto Motion Plus • LG calls it TruMotion • Sony calls it Motionflow • Roku calls it Action Smoothing • Google TV calls it Motion Enhancement • Vizio calls it Smooth Motion Effect.

“Glicked” is a deeply upsetting thing to say out loud.

Let’s be clear: McArthy didn’t avoid the shutdown because he saw the light. 1) 8% SS and Medicare/caid cuts are a godsend to Dems in purple districts and progressives in red ones. He knew the maga wing demands were a shit show. 2) he clearly lined up support to kneecap Matt Gaetz if need be.

You are up to date.
