Maybe think about some 'prayer and reflection' before you send naughtygrams and try to hit on female staff one third your age, you lecherous Christian fuckstick.

I gotta get off the internet for a bit. I'm murderously pissed at something like 100 motherfuckers today, and that's an unhealthy state for me.
Does this look like your goddamn retirement home? If you let anyone know that in a Fortune 500 corporation, they fire you so their insurance wouldn't be paying for you anymore.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterday😳 Rep. Pete Stauber indicates there's something gravely wrong with Tom Emmer's health: "You have no idea what Congressman Emmer is dealing with right now. If you did, you would've never made that comment. He's fighting for his damn life today!"
Congress must be a really great place to work if you have a humiliation fetish, but you also like to do illegal insider trades. Jesus, fuck these clowns with the splintered end of a goddamn broomstick.

The right's narrative on Covid is incomprehensible: Covid-19 was a lab-created Chinese bioweapon, yet it was far less harmful than the flu. Trump is to be lauded for funding RNA vaccine development, but the vaccine itself was a deadly gene-altering poison. And this is somehow all Biden's fault.
This photo gives me anxiety. Man, that's not even making your own traces on a blank breadboard. There were no timer chips or anything; this is cutting lengths of wire x nanoseconds long. I do recognize the oscilloscope in the background, which probably means she's debugging something subtly wrong.

Accountability thread for the week ending 7/1/206. 3 progressive overload strength training sessions, one each top, bottom and back. This was a doctor-heavy week, as will be the entire month of August. Also, I've now worked 21 days in a row, and that will stretch to 35, I'm pretty sure.
This is a nearly perfect bookend to the 70s oil embargo. During the Yom Kippur war, Washington armed Israel to fight the Arab states. In response, OPEC nations embargoed the US. The cost of gasoline quadrupled, markets fell in a multiyear grind, and the 30y went to 15%.
You guys are doing your best ro make me like a pope. Well, to paraphrase, 'Love the believer; hate the belief.'

Woofity! 7bps in the 10y. Warsh gotta get his thumb out of his ass here, or he may have to do a good-sized defensive hike on the market's terms, not his own.
Starting to sell the bounce here. Shorted incrementally more ORCL around 132. By the vol-adjusted risk ranges, that looks to be sbout 6 down and 1 up. Shorted a little more NFLX at 72 and change. That showed as 6 down and 1 up as well.
They're fucking lost. You knew it all along. They have no clear reason why they engaged with Iran, no exit strategy or victory conditions, they're using shitty real estate grifters to negotiate with international relations doctorates, and they have no theory of mind for their opponents whatsoever.
The overwhelming right wing sentiment is that COVID was an engineered bioweapon that was also harmless. Trump overreacted to it by shutting down the country, then engineered a drive to create a vaccine that was the real bioweapon that killed millions, and it's Joe Biden's fault.
Man, these guys' brains are absolutely fried to a crisp.

What if we kissed in the mouth of the whale?
jordan@jordantyranny.bsky.social · last wk.The only taxidermied blue whale in the world, 1865 CE, now housed at the Natural History Museum in Sweden. The public was allowed to enter the whale up until a couple was found having sex inside it. Now the whale’s jaws are opened only for special occasions, such as Swedish election days.
Hard to see this rally holding. +8.5bps in the 30y, +5.9bps in the 10y. Yields tryna run away.
Warsh is not the dude you want if/when SHTF. Empty suit, my view.
It's OK, I'll get my payback. When I retire, I plan to individually and collectively terrorize the living fuck out of the Christian Pol Pot trying to extinguish the light of literacy in our county library system. Nothing I hate like a fucking supernaturalist book burning piece of shit.

I own 6 ancient codebases. Because of Anthropic's scanner tool, I have work on just the Sev 1s out through January at least. At first, I tested to see if the stated vulnerability was both real and exploitable. Then my management chain said no, don't think about it, just fix them all. So I am.
ProPublica@propublica.org · last wk.NEW: When Microsoft reviewed the early results of Anthropic’s new AI model for cybersecurity, it was a sobering scene: Hundreds of bugs were identified, many of them critical. What followed was a “mad dash” to patch them — but many more remain.

Douthat is the only columnist I regularly hate-read, because I know I'm going to get the most self-consciously tarted-up presentation of the most loathesome TradCath ideas in the history of western civilization. I have serious doubts a little fat religious scold is going to be a great TV presence.

Accountability thread for the week ending 7/25/2026. Lots going on, haven't posted these consistently, though I did the work. 4 days of resistance training, 2 top half, one each bottom and back, with a cardio and stretching day last Sunday. Extra time on the forearms because she digs them.
