My theory is that if we taxed most of these people without telling them and the people they pay to manage their money didn't tell them, they'd never notice.

And if you'd never notice you should be taxed even more.

Motherfucking wind farms…

These morons are struggling with object permanence.

I personally prefer to use complex carbohydrates when I patch code.

The patches are usually made of organic amino acid crystals…

Truly extraordinary Google AI results. Amazing.

I made a little walnut shadow box for some ceramic flowers. The maple splines in the corners form a crisscross pattern.

I love them too! But I can’t really use the ones I made until the upholsterer finishes the leather cushions. 2-3 months :(

They are pretty to look at though.

I used Jeff Jewitt's finishing process. Color combo is similar to Stickley's Onondaga finish.

"Indiana Jones and the Plot to Bring Back the 80's Cause We Can't Think of Anything New"

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.

On how A.I. can transform media consumption: Reading the A.I. summary — I think it can be useful. I think it has a powerfully inoculating effect. Like, I think long-form, lots-of-episodes TV is a waste of time. But it’s very tempting, right? You watch an episode and you’re like, “Oh, geez, I really want to know what happens here.” And so I discovered a couple of years ago, obviously, that the solution is you immediately go to Wikipedia and read the entire summary of the season, and then you’re cured of the desire to watch any more episodes. So there is a therapeutic benefit to A.I. summaries.

Really a sad way to go through life www.nytimes.com/2025/06/27/b...

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

What dipshit country singer is gonna release a song for Murica’s latest quagmire?

War is bad. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

When, in the history of the fucking world, has anything in the Middle East been “one and done?”

A liar, an idiot, a coward, and a drunk.

War pigs are gonna war

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

Like record keeping, reason-giving is basic to any hope for accountability. To not even bother with it shows how far we have gone. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

Donald Trump is an extremely stupid man with very few real policy preferences who has simply done what mainstream conservatives have wanted 80-90% of the time since he has entered politics. They have wanted to bomb Iran. He bombed Iran. Pretty straightforward.

the egg bagel comes for us all

can’t wait for hurricane season to start and then we can collect almost all of the trophies for speedrunning the entire george w bush term in under a year

That is some sorry ass marching. Embarrassing.

Maybe Excalibur Comics on Hawthorne?

TAKE MY MONEY!!!

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.

They are in charge.
