As always, the court can be 100% dedicated to serving the political goals of the GOP on general and donald trump in particular. Not just un-, but actively anti-constitutional. But expanding the (size defined by statute) court? "bReAk tHe uNiOn pUrGe tEh LiBs bUrN iT dOwN".

This kind of nostalgia is every bit as blinkered and inaccurate as the right's longing for the good old days. Everyone in this thread misses being a child. That's it. Life was better because you were 8, not because some guy delivered milk to your door and banged your mom.

The blue sky algorithm has decided that what I really need to see is fat mostly naked guys eating huge amounts of food. Wtf, bluesky. I guess at least it's better than the gay dudes with their dicks out, but seriously where does it get the idea that I'm into this stuff?

Repeat after me: I am not tougher than Elon Musk. I am not tougher than Kat Abughazaleh. I am not tougher than Lowtax. I am not tougher than Donald Trump. But if I stand back and watch and learn, I will be tougher than I am.

One of my less popular beliefs is that you aren't serious about dealing with the problem of our big tech oligarchy if you completely disregard capital punishment for C-suites and founders. Thiel, Zuckerberg and Musk are all guilty of treason by any reasonable definition.

anyway this is maaaaaybe the most perfect shot I’ve ever taken; it’s not fancy, but I’d just watered the yard and the African daisies were just… out there, looking this good for no damn reason on a Wednesday

An African daisy of orange and yellow gradient, with a dark purple/red center and droplets of water on its petals. Taken with an iPhone and a cheap clip-on macro lens. No filter, just tidied up for contrast.

I'm not the first person to say this, but the bike industry in the U.S. is really missing a huge opportunity by not aggressively defending and promoting e-bikes. I think this is largely the result of it being an industry built on recreational cycling and not transit riding.
