It's tough to know on any given day whether it's called
The Department of War, or
The Department of Defense.

Here's a question to help you figure it out:

Are we trying to look tough, or kill people without Congressional Oversight?

if not war then why war shaped

Why are bad bike racks so common?

Also, could I trouble you to get something for me? I left my wallet in El Segundo...

The sun rises, peeking through the trees on the right and reflecting off of water in the arroyo. Trees on the other side bask in the sunlight.

Jamie Raskin to Kristi Noem LOLLLL:

"Apparently when your special blanket -- your blankie -- was left one of the govt jets and not transported over to the new one, your special govt employee Corey Lewandowski chivalrously stepped forward to fire the pilot, mid-air."

Incredible

Game dev quote of the day:
"I do this thing when I build stuff, I just keep adding shit onto it even though the main bit is done. And it's cause I don't want to stop building it cause it's fun. But a lot of the time it just makes the overall product ... worse."
*sad music noises*

I've known a few people who suffered from ALS. I'm glad you were able to thank your friend, and can celebrate his goodness when you ride.

This is my least favourite part of liberal & leftist discourse:

A chrome and flat black ribbon microphone upright in a spider shockmount in front of dark brown cabinets. Words are printed in white on the black body of the mic: Cascade Vin-Jet.

Wishing a happy Microphone Monday to all those who celebrate! Today I’m hanging the Cascade Vin-Jet, which is a figure-8 pattern ribbon mic. I got the version with the Lundahl transformer, so it has a lot of snap on top. This mic is great for getting instant vintage vibes on just about any source.

I don't think your U-Lock is going to fit around that bike rack

The Best Field Recordings on Bandcamp, February 2026 Sounds of leaves, temples, and really big fans.

There’s a lot of great field recordings available on @bandcamp.com. It can sometimes be hard to track them all so I’m really enjoying the monthly lists of highlights – here’s the latest one. Lots of inspiring sounds: bandcamp.com/article/1905...

The government's the devil's hands
It's a lie and it's a scam
They wind us up, put us down, and watch us go
And if you close your eyes
There's a big surprise

What the fuck are we saying?
Do we believe what we read about?
We've got to keep on praying
And one day we'll see the light

the world is not very good right now but you could Rosalía's insane BRIT Awards performance 70x like I did, it helps

Listen. You better not cross me, or I'll put you in some cement shoes and you'll be floating at the bottom of the sea...

I understood that reference

Intimidating

*IF* there's a direction from which cameras can't identify a rider, a swift kick from the seat of a bicycle would probably immobilize one. Consistent immobilization might theoretically put them out of business.

As a bicycle commuter, and Mythbusters fan, this hits a sweet spot for me
