Can we please please send him that awful prison in El Salvador? www.cbsnews.com/news/milo-yi...

I'm back to masking in indoor public spaces as COVID seems to be surging in the Bay Area again. There's no longer wastewater data available in the East Bay, but check out this chart covering the eastern half of SF. A solid surge since August. Highest it's been all year...

This is exactly why we don't want Becerra as governor. Like Newsom he is pre-paid for by big oil and other corporate interests. He is the CA version of a Republican. sfstandard.com/2026/05/31/f...

Giving Orban the boot os great, BUT... In ANY other context Peter Magyar winning any election would be cause for serious concern. He is still far right wing, he is a racist, and his ex wife has accused him of abuse. He is just an EU friendly and younger version Orban.

Trump is so jealous of the Iranians blocking the straight that he's going to do it too. I used to say that Trump will always sink lower, will always get worse, but now I have to add that he'll always get stupider too. There is no lower limit to his stupidity.

I've been saying this since last summer when I paid for Open AI and gave 4.0 a serious try: The AI market is a bubble and it is going to pop and trash the economy.

Gavin Newsom is the fascist governor from Dead Kennedys California Über Alles. (maybe this will help the Gen Xers understand)

ProPublica is one of the only decent news organizations left in the US. BUT that does not make it okay for them to treat employees poorly. The PP union voted 92% to authorize a strike because PP won't negotiate in good faith for totally modest demands like cost of living increases. Solidarity!

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints. One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

With the most sincere apologies to people living in the snow, it's spring in the SF Bay Area.

I think he is only covering for himself. He never cares about other people.

Elon Musk uses lots of illegal methane gas turbines to generate the electricity for the Grok data center in Memphis. They're illegal because they emit tons of nitrogen oxides, which cause asthma and cancer, both of which Memphis has more than it should. www.youtube.com/shorts/jBJxX...

www.npr.org/2025/11/30/n... Not a hard quiz but it gives a little reasoning about how to ID ai video slop. The thing I saw in the first clip was the signs in the background don't have real words. In the second clip, by contrast, there is a clear address, that turned out to be real in chicago.
