Before we had silicon chips, we had needle and thread. In the 1960s, NASA didn’t ‘upload’ code; they sewed it. To get Apollo 11 to the moon, skilled weavers (often called ‘Little Old Ladies’) literally hand-stitched software into physical objects. Original post

This is a citizens united problem not a talarico problem

With all my heart I hope Talarico wins, but this kind of thing has to stop; it is one of the reasons so many Democratic voters hate the Democratic party. And it's not a Talarico problem; it's a Democratic consultant-class problem.

With U.S. Senate control at stake, Republicans fear the once-unthinkable: a blue Texas.

Texas Senate race nears Election Day with much at stake

Ken Paxton and James Talarico are neck-and-neck in the country's most expensive U.S. Senate race on record. The outcome's ripple effects will extend years.

there's an entire universe of television for people evidently incapable of understanding things that are not cop-based. great Gatsby cop show. Einstein cop show. Lucifer cop show.

I don’t think I like these redesigned bsky notifications. I just don’t need that much information about them

Trump: I did not marry my sister. I had two lovely; I have one left. Elizabeth. She's great. But I never proposed to them. They’re beautiful, but I was never—I was never particularly attracted to either of them.

for all of the "I don't want to get my heart broken by Texas" people out there, it's okay. I'm fine getting my heart broken. I'm gonna run at that brick wall screaming WE CAN DO THIS and if I smack into it and fall over, oh well. I'll get up & do it again next time. I can not be stopped. LOL

Get in losers Derek made a thread about Ossoff’s Georgia peach and Collins’ pancake butt

The Senate race between Jon Ossoff and Mike Collins gives us good material to illustrate two common problems with men's trousers, which most people miss when shopping. Let me show you. 🧵

Why is everyone taking about Ossoff’s booty

We should just forfeit if we know what’s good for us

There it is baby. The good stuff.

After new update my “find my iPhone” app opened and all my AirTags popped up and it showed me this and I am going to cry myself to sleep

NEW — Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy (R) declined to commit to certifying the U.S. Senate election if Democrat Mary Peltola wins while an investigation into a second Dan Sullivan candidate continues, per Axios.

Well this Picard video wrecked me this morning.

In Texas we are beginning to see counties where the early vote so far is surpassing the entire turnout (including early AND election day) from 2022. This is concentrated in Hispanic Counties, along with some of the most diverse urban/suburban areas not far behind.

Woof. Judge Reyes starts by telling Stanley Woodward to stay at the podium when he stands up to announce his appearance and then she starts quoting from the duty of candor in the DC professional rules. Woof.

A small fleet of what appears to be military helicopters just flew over our house so close that the windows in my office were literally—and loudly—shaking. Anyone else in Austin see this?!

Judge Reyes proposes to appoint a special master to conduct an investigation into agency and attorney misconduct and ethical violations, including false statements and failing to correct false testimony.

A reminder we have our NY gala coming up! Would love to see you there. And did I mention it’s my birthday?

Hey everyone!! Do you fly fish or are you interested in learning? Have you served in uniform, have someone in your orbit who has, or want to support disabled veterans? Join me & Project Healing Waters for our Healing on the Fly Gala in NYC on Nov 10!! projecthealingwaters.org/ways-to-give...

Yesterday someone suggested reading the first page of the California/20,000 voters ruling, so I just did, & it's so remarkable that I'm going to post it all bc holy cow what a thing. [this thread constitutes alt text for the image of the page] 1/n

It’s because they construe the concept of privilege not to mean protection or confidentiality—but to grantlicense to do anything they want.

Sarah Burris@sarahburris.bsky.social · 2d ago

You can't make this up. Trump's public posts are covered by "executive privilege," really? Didn't they say that they were official statements by the president? So which are they? Judge lashes out at DOJ lawyer claiming 'executive privilege' on Trump’s posts www.alternet.org/justice-depa...

So I figure it's time to 'splain some law to people, because I need my poor and beleaguered paralegal to focus on other things, and as long as you are all being aggressively wrong online she will be tempted to patiently explain things to you. Unfortunately now you are in my world.

Putting someone in jail for criminal contempt requires notice and a hearing -- essentially a full-ass trial. It's not like the judge can just push a button and flush the guy into an oubliette.

www.al.com/politics/202... ““This is earthshattering, earthquake stuff,” CNN’s Harry Enten said Wednesday after the CNN/SSRS poll showed Talarico leading Republican Ken Paxton by six percentage points — outside the survey’s 4.2- percentage-point margin of error.”

New poll shows Democrat smashing record held for 40 years in red state

"There's never been polling like this," said CNN data guru Harry Enten.
