For reasons completely unrelated to any opinions about regulatory policy, a Day 1 executive order here in the US should be ending every government agency account on X. Just delete them all, plain as that. For the same reason the US government need not have accounts on Stormfront or 4chan.

It is officially time for the Democratic Party to stop wasting money on their out of touch consultant class, and start paying for insights from Bluesky posters named "<--- kill me" and "Kicked In The Farm Parts"

This is absolutely correct. A constitution is every citizen's compact with the government, not some secret scroll that only members of a priest caste are allowed to access.

few realize car advertising for about a 30 year period was:

Choose one:

1. plane
2. sailboat (yacht) or yacht club
3. Hobie Cat
4. Windsurfer
5. Country club
6. large city at night
7. farm

A early 2000 Sony laptop that's all rounded corners, plus it has pill-shaped detachable speakers you can place left and right "floating" on the display. It's extremely Windows XP-coded.

this gets to the fundamental lawlessness. the difference between law as a game and law as a tool of government.

birthright citizenship is the law. nothing has changed. the documents are the same. if that can change based on *nothing*, you don't have a real constitution in the first place.

We need to mobilize an outrage machine on the left capable of destroying bad right wing actors in academia.

There is zero excuse for a hate mongerer like Wurman working at a state university in a blue state.

Academic freedom mainly protects right wing racists - always has.

$28 million of cocaine seized off Miami Beach. Three men charged Coast Guard and CBP seized about 3,715 pounds of cocaine worth $28 million from a 65-foot vessel near Government Cut off Miami Beach; three men were arrested.

Whoa … this is really strange.

Federal law enforcement managed to confiscate almost two tons of cocaine, and arrest 3 suspects, without blowing the boat out of the water or killing anyone.

Just a little reminder:

Elon Musk is lying to you.

He bends when asked to, and the fine X received from the EU has nothing to do with censorship.

Musk simply refuses to follow laws and be transparent, and he gets a tiny fine for it

My buddies putting in a new window and the driveway was blocked so I had to get half a dozen 2x4’s in my CTS. I nearly got a splinter when I shifted to sixth gear. #WeirdCarBS #cadillac #SaveTheManuals

I went to a shop in person and bought films on physical disc based media.

Then I carried them home in a bag.

They will be good to watch on my 20 year old tv.

Lots have new transfers from original prints and directors commentary tracks plus making of docs.

Long live physical media. πŸ“€πŸ“ΌπŸ“½οΈπŸŽ₯🎞️

Experts: From shooting to Slim Jims, immigration agents’ poor tactics made for needless safety risks A Tribune review found Immigration agents routinely broke urban policing protocols meant to limit danger to themselves and others.

We reviewed Gregory Bovino and his agents’ tactics in Chicago. From a shooting to Slim Jims, the feds’ poor tactics made for needless safety risks for the public and the officers themselves. β€œSimply reckless,” former police superintendent said.

The American public is clearly crying out, β€œYeah let me forego interest and add layers of complexity and cost to my vending machine transaction so bad guys can do crime!”

No legitimate use would forgo interest and add layers of complexity for a legitimate transaction. Thereβ€˜a an entire low cost infrastructure dedicated to legitimate transactions and compensating people for use of their money.

A reminder that stablecoins are just a more shitty version of bearer bonds - which actually paid interest and had a legitimate economic utility. They got banned because they were getting used for crime (see Beverly Hills Cop, 1). Crypto (esp. stablecoins)has no practical use outside of crime.

Finally someone who gets why I start talking about German bearer bonds any time crypto comes up.

There was a reason bearer bonds were banned.

How a Cryptocurrency Helps Criminals Launder Money and Evade Sanctions

When the House and Senate marked up stablecoin legislation, we raised all of these concerns - their anonymity, their nearly perfect design for money laundering. All the barn doors were left wide open. It’s used for crime because that is its purpose. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/07/t...
