Raised where the border is a bridge. I still believe in bridges, between nations, between people. I believe in the quiet power of intelligence, in science, equal rights, equity, and dignity even under fire. Ignorance burns hot, but intelligence burns long.

MOGA - Make Online Great Again.
Kill LLMs. Shut down the data centers.

This is the new American mindset where:
• Global leadership no longer matters
• Problem-solving is avoided
• Short-term comfort beats long-term gain
• Fear dictates policy and culture
• The can-do spirit is now never will

Jon Stewart pointing out tRump basically said that people from Somalia aren’t allowed in the US unless they’re also sommeliers. 🧑‍🍳💋

The Constitution isn’t self-enforcing. That’s why we require service members and representatives to swear an oath to it. The moment we stop taking those oaths seriously or allow them to become hollow, we lose the country.

And it tells the rest of the world that the US can’t be trusted; that we’re a banana republic, governed by the whims of whoever holds power, instead of a nation operating under the rule of law.

By the way: we ‘can’ still save the US. But the only path forward is real accountability; serious consequences for those who attacked the Constitution, and for those who enabled them. Pretending none of this happened only tells the next would-be attackers they can act without consequence.

“Make ____ great again“ isn’t just about social, political, or economic subjects. It’s a fear-based statement about any change. The people on this site are mostly immune to the political use, but AI (Large Language Model) use is one example where many just want to wish and pretend it doesn’t exist.

I hand crafted this swan neck lamp for my niece. My hobbies though are all over the place so I’m not sure what’s next. Maybe an iOS app just to see if I can. And I just started rewatching Stargate SG-1.

I love the concept of watching tRump and MAGA implode in real time. But everyone is looking for the the next significant signs (like sounds of stress on the challenger deep fiberglass hull) and trying to predict the end. I’m over the anticipation. Just let it happen and soon.

What level of sycophant do you have to be to go on TV and claim Trump is “sharp” and “playing 4D chess”? That’s Level 90 🧙‍♂️ Grandmaster Sycophancy.

In a hypothetical situation where your life depended on getting accurate, factual information, and you could choose any person and any topic, tRump is the one person you couldn’t rely on for the truth. No matter how simple the topic or how convincing the answer might sound, you’d have to verify it.

I don't have any empathy for anyone who ever trusted Donald Trump.

What you missed is so damn obvious to the rest of us.

Deal with it.

I am not concerned that the chatbot will replace man; I am concerned that man will cite the chatbot without reading the answer.

Interesting. Decision desks don’t decide anything. They look at available data and project a winner using statistical modeling. The winner isn’t official until all votes are counted. But are you wanting to silence free speech?

Candidate A is leading by more votes than the remaining votes to be counted. It will take another 5 days to collect and count those. Do we not call it for candidate A until all the votes are counted?

“There’s no question that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day. No question about it. The people who stormed this building believed they were acting on his wishes and instructions.”

Count backwards from 100 by 7.

I’m sure tRump thought that question was impossible and was not able to do it without help.

Make no mistake. This bubble will burst. It’s already grown larger than anyone thought possible.

Yes but I already acknowledged that…though probably on a direct reply to pandagirl you might not have seen.

You’re quoting mean solar time, which smooths out seasonal variation.
Actual solar noon (the real sun at its highest point) in Eastport/Lubec hits around 11:11 AM on multiple days in October, 49 minutes before 12:00 PM.
Anyone can verify this on NOAA or TimeAndDate.

The idea that Standard Time is somehow the “one true natural time” for everyone just doesn’t hold up to how daylight actually behaves anywhere in the U.S.

That is my only “claim“.

Someone needs to explain calling the time zone boundaries gerrymandering.

“Except for one county in Maine.”
And that same county hits solar noon 49 minutes early on Standard Time.

And that’s only the east–west drift.
Once you factor in north–south latitude differences and seasonal daylight swings, sunlight varies far more than a single one-hour clock shift.

tRump is such a despicable human being with a long list a verifiable crimes such that we don’t need to invent new ones. He does not care and could not name the victims because he’s a sociopath, but there isn’t a single piece of hard evidence in the public domain that points to a faked attempt.

Uh yeah, was was abbreviating.

And “gerrymandered” applies to voting districts, not clocks.
Nobody is stealing elections with a crooked UTC-5 boundary.
Time-zone lines zigzag because straight ones would slice cities, schools, and economies in half.
