Every news story is now “State Senator Randy Pervert (R-Springfield) was indicted on 8 counts of lewd behavior with a child under 12 and has been put on paid leave from his two jobs as Border Patrol liaison and youth pastor at First Presbyterian (PCA) where parishioners say they were ‘blindsided.’”

February 19, 2026 INSTRUCTIONS TO ALL PERSONS OF JAPANESE ANCESTRY As survivors and descendants of the mass removals, detention, deportation, and family separation targeting our community during WWII, we refuse to stand by idly while our friends and neighbors are violently disappeared, forcibly removed, mass incarcerated, and separated from family members. We decry the murders of community members and at least 37 people in ICE custody and enforcement in 2025. We reject false narratives that state violence is "unavoidable," a "justifiable military action," necessary for "national security"—the same arguments used as they forced our parents, grandparents, aunties, and uncles into U.S. concentration camps in 1942. On this Day of Remembrance, we call on Japanese Americans and all people who believe in "Never Again" to demand justice for those we have lost—on the streets and hidden away in ICE detention centers. To break this cycle of state violence. To rise up and resist, together. We bravely commit to being the allies our familes needed during WWII. STOP REPEATING HISTORY. #TsuruForSolidarity #FreeFamilies #FreeThemAll

84 years ago today, President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, ordering the removal and incarceration of more than 120,000 Japanese Americans, about two-thirds of whom were US citizens. The Day of Remembrance this year comes as we see DHS buying land and warehouses for more camps now.

Normalize laughing derisively in men's faces when they deserve it.

In the US, transgender people make up less than .1% of mass shooters, despite representing 1% of the population. Trans people are 2.5x-4x more likely to be victims of homicide. Yet, since the most recent mass shooting suspect was a trans person now conservatives are again demonizing trans people.

Calling political opponents fascists and mocking victims of political violence? Republicans would NEVER

It was the same indoor soccer as well. Still larger field but not a lot.

There’s always exceptions. I never cared and told other official. Some were still scared to make the call but many weren’t. It’s all about communication and trust.

When I officiated soccer that was an unwritten rule. Basically if it was within 10 yards of them it was their call. Doesn’t matter where any other official was. Considered as showing them up if you made the call and would get yelled at for it after the game.

No one wants a Stephen A. Smith presidential run except Stephen A. Smith The last person in America who needs to be the next president might be Stephen A. Smith, but in true fashion, he's not letting that stop him.

"Stephen A. Smith wants us talking ourselves in circles about his intentions and possibilities, elevating him beyond the caricature of a screaming buffoon on television.

"If that’s the playbook, it sure sounds familiar." bit.ly/4kHC8iQ

Got my acceptance. Looking forward to talking about the job market and how to handle layoffs.

I’ll also have the Mental Health Hackers village there both days.

When this song comes on I stop what I'm doing and turn the volume to 11. Always a jam.

Good to know. The chime in this house is crap so I’d be happy to replace it.

We have a HomePod on both levels but only a chime on the main level so that's good new!!

Thanks for the testing/info. That helps a lot.

Thanks. We're a HomeKit house as well so interested to hear what value that integration provides, if any.

Yeah. Was not happy to see that yesterday. Talk about losing some viewing power for games.

Had a 10-15 second delay between doorbell push and notification to app on my phone. Local chime was fine but by the time I would get the app open and video up to see who it was there was a pretty good delay. Wife hated it.

I help customers w/ AI projects & tell them all the time - the first goal of LLM's is to generate data. If it doesn't know about a topic it will create data to make its user happy. I always have to start w/ data programs to back the use case & system prompts that tell it never create new info

How's the responsiveness of it?

I had Ubiquiti before but there was a decent delay. Owners of house we bought last year left all the Ring stuff so we just used it. Don't want to go back to UI b/c of cost and performance.

The far-right hates liberalism in part because liberalism empowered women socially, politically, and economically, and so made them less dependent on settling for a mediocre man to provide for them. So they want to destroy liberalism to return women to a state of powerlessness and dependence.

SecKC is tomorrow - join us for some great talks at Knuckleheads!!
