I donโ€™t care. Just clean the dirt and dust off the negatives and give it to me on a 4K BluRay

Picking up my son for the summer, protests here on Marthas Vineyard. Fascism is not a popular look in these here parts.

There are a lot of things to dunk on with this post. But, if you think using an LLM is the way to deal with a json file (json is a ubiquitous, highly structured format for data storage), you are a bad, inexperienced coder. And, you definitely shouldn't be rewriting the US Treasury codebase.

DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts A staffer for Elon Muskโ€™s Department of Government Efficiency whose access to U.S. Treasury payment systems was approved by a federal judge on Thursday has links to a deleted social-media account that...

I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a โ€œeugenic immigration policy,โ€ and wrote, โ€œYou could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."

He just resigned. www.wsj.com/tech/doge-st...

Hollywood is not some monoculture dictating what audiences can and cannot watch. Hollywood gives you what you're willing to pay for. So if you want big, fun, gory slasher movies, take a friend or a date out this weekend and see this big, fun, gory (also romantic) slasher movie. It's how we get more.

The gleeful profiteers from Trumpโ€™s police state Palantir's stock soared this week as its CEO cheerfully screamed "we're doin' it" on an investor callโ€”clarifying that "it" includes "on occasion" killing people.

On an earnings call, the CEO of Palantir talked openly about killing โ€œenemies,โ€ then added, โ€œIโ€™m sure youโ€™re enjoying this as much as I am!โ€ www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Theyโ€™ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We arenโ€™t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.

FYI all of the viral images government spending that โ€œDOGE HAS UNCOVEREDโ€ is actually from www.usaspending.gov a website that Obama signed into law in 2014 that has always been accessible to the public.

Yeah. I declined to pay the amount being โ€œaskedโ€. Iโ€™d go to concerts, but I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ll go to another one again with the way theyโ€™re priced.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. Itโ€™s not intellectually superior. Itโ€™s the virus theyโ€™re trying to infect us with. NO

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, โ€˜what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?โ€™ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. Heโ€™s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

Not all of us get to live out our dreams or reach the goals we've worked so hard for, but every day life is going to give you the chance to BE the person you've always dreamed of being - brave, kind, noble, just, empathetic, heroic. That's something neither life nor circumstance can ever deny you.

It is 100% their fault for not retiring 20 fucking years ago or passing any regulation of the tech billionaires that they inflated through tax policies.

We have specific words for employed writers: Screenwriter, Author, Copywriter, Journalist, Critic, Editorialist. But if you write, you are a writer. Don't let anyone tell you - or even tell yourself - that you aren't a real writer until you are paid or published. I'm here to tell you that you are.

Scientists Say If We're Extremely Lucky, This Asteroid May Put Us Out of Our Misery Astronomers have spotted a space rock, an estimated 200 feet in length, that they say just may be headed for Earth.

The White House has released a statement claiming the asteroid is the result of DEI policies of the previous administration and that we have nothing to concern ourselves with because "it's just a big, dumb old rock that will probably just splash into the ocean anyhow."

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and itโ€™s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They arenโ€™t firing for a reason.

Dear the Media,

When something bad happens in an area under the executive branch's purview, and the White House goes "uh... a Black or gay person must've done it," you do not need to accept that. You're allowed to follow up in pursuit of the factual reason, not the bigoted excuse.

Love,
The public
