Ben Collins, from ‘The Onion’: ‘The powerful have a revenge fantasy, it’s the revenge of the dorks’ The CEO of the leading US satirical website explains what to do when reality is crazy, and how he is trying to buy the website of a famous conspiracy theorist

I love and admire Ben for many reasons, and one of them is how perfectly he is able to distill the pathetic-ness of the right and instill hope and solidarity in everyone else around him.

Anyway, go read his interview with the biggest Spanish newspaper here: english.elpais.com/technology/2...

And Bill Cassidy voted to convict Trump of insurrection. This, ladies and gentlemen, is the best of the Republicans in Congress.

Follow the trend line from the peak at the end of 2023 to Q2 2024 it looks like we'll have no Hydrogen heavy-duty truck sales in 2026.

Suspect there will still be some because of deluded politicians pushing funds into dead end solutions because the don't undersand physics and economics.

Trump stopped bragging about Operation Warp Speed because MAGA was too antivax. MAGA proved it had a mind of its own.

Then Trump campaigned on publishing the Epstein files. Did he assume MAGA would forget?

Yikes 😬 an official U.S. government account just referred to Americans as “imbecilic morons.” That’s… a choice.

TL;DR Trump lied about everything from the start. We're still treating him like a legitimate politician instead of a fascist monster.

Spoken like a typical fascist scapegoating immigrants.

Housing is expensive due to high costs of construction and permits, years of underbuilding, corporations buying too many properties, and a smattering of other things. Vance knows all this.

Letter from Chicago broadcast veterans: Federal immigration agents have traumatized us and eroded our rights The fact that some federal immigration forces may be leaving soon is cold comfort given the damage they’ve done.

I just can't stop thinking about Trump saying he had no idea who CZ was, despite pardoning him. I recall that he said some of Joe Biden's pardons were "invalid" or "void," specifically asserting that Biden "did not know anything about them". Every accusation is an admission of guilt.

Kaweah Lake, in central California with red pillars of light over the mountain range from the aurora borealis.

A little bit of excitement from last night. The northern lights very rarely ever make it down into central California. Had to go out and see what I could capture.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Vance is salivating hard over the presidency right now. I wonder if he'll be more or less of a nazi compared to Trump.

Homemade pizza with pepperoni tomato and pineapple.

Started a new batch of 66% hydration pizza dough on Nov 4th, cold fermented for 72 hours then froze. Thawed one for tonight's dinner which turned out decent in the kitchen oven! Going to give it a go later this week in the Ooni Karu wood fired oven, higher heat should be good! 🍕 👍
