On a private call, Todd Blanche said his goal was to make the "Dobbs decision permanent in every single state." This isn’t just a confirmation vote anymore—it’s a roll-call vote on which Senators endorse BANNING abortion in ALL 50 states. I’m voting NO.

El-Sayed: "I believe our kids have a right to our tax dollars. I'm about 10 min away from schools that look like they did 50 years ago. Our money should be spent here rather than sent in the form of bombs or tanks to foreign govts, particularly when they are doing most heinous things with them ... "

Confrontation with a guy this morning because I took a photo of his terrible, over-the-line parking. He was upset & paranoid, maybe because he was stoned (car smelled like when the DEA burns 20 bales of weed). I did nothing wrong, yet feel guilty.

NEWS: Rep. Chuck Edwards (R-NC) just dropped out of his re-election race at 3:32 a.m.m. He said he’s done running but will finish out his term. This after the House Ethics Committee found “substantial reason to believe [he] violated House Rules related to sexual harassment and hostile workplaces.”

When the FBI is back under competent, non-treasonous leadership, I guess they'll nevertheless have to include a photo of googly-eyed Kremlin bitch Kash Patel on the wall of former directors.

El-Sayed: We live in an era where we continue to see a few very small people try to define America as being as small as they are. We can't control the past 250 years. What we can do is build the next 250

Guess I'll stop looking at Michigan results and watch a monster movie; leave it to the morning. Fingers crossed. (When the ruling party is Fascist, "moderates" and "centrists" are complicit.)

You misspelled "wine box".

I once got into a Twitter spat with Rod Liddle during which he asked me if I'd ever read anything and I said I'd start with his obituary but I was lying. I will not be reading it, he isn't worth the time.

Almost bought some cookies that sounded good. Saw one of those stupid "No GMOs" labels; put it back. Shouldn't really be eating a lot of cookies anyway.

1/ Rewatching "Project Hail Mary," and it's mostly really good, but hard to get past their nonsensical redesign of the titular starship, a vessel described in the novel *very* clearly. And what's with the sticky-out things? 1) Not solar panels, that makes no sense for two obvious reasons.

Just a random reminder that immigrants are good for society and good for the economy.

Stephen Miller needs to face capital punishment for crimes against humanity.

"We did almost everything wrong." Does he know his boss was president at the time?

When Musk says he's trying to do good, he really means that he is trying to get everyone to think the way he does, because he's vain enough to believe that his philosophy of life can't possible be wrong. Simply said, he's a narcissistic, misogynistic asshole, of the very common variety.

Just saw a biographical documentary about Yul Brynner. Made me glad I saw him in The King and I on stage; Nashville, 1982.

@hughhowey.com I'm an sf/f writer. I was excited about the possibility of artificial intelligence a decade before you were born. Fuck, no, I'll never use the software currently, mistakenly, called "A.I." Believing whatever "summary" an LLM presents in answer to your question is not research.
