So if you wonder how soon America will suffer the fate of South Korea, consider this order of events:

1. Pat Cipollone and Pat Philbin stop Trump from executing the Waldron Plot—a coup plot involving martial law.
2. Kash Patel puts the Pats on his hitlist.
3. Trump nominates Patel for FBI Director.

Wow, you can fit a LOT of characters in alt text

Thanks Becka! My teammates did the writing and coding while I came up with the flow. It was a fun project!

a man with gray hair is crying and says i love democracy Alt: Palpatine, a politician in Star Wars who lied and cheated and stole and committed many heinous crimes in secret all to put himself in a position where he'd be able to make himself a fascist emperor and abolish the democratic government, telling the senate that he loves democracy.

The South Korean people, its trade unions and its legislature, stood up against a blatant fascism grab and fought it down to the ground. Meanwhile in America...

$500 used to be a deterrent, but in our current age of Big Money Funding Big Nasty Agendas, it's suddenly very doable.

THIS is what you have to keep in mind when you're writing documentation and training. You mustn't just avoid assuming they know what you know. You MUST assume by default that they know 10% of your topic, at best. Otherwise you'll lose over half of your readers and your doc is functionally useless.

Well for November I didn't come anywhere near 50k for my personal story writing. But I did get 11k done, which is massive for me. And I'm probably about 10% through of this story. Lots to go!

I think I'd rather argue about politics with my entire extended family, all of which are ideologically opposite and just had their guy win an election

British roast dinner with chicken, roast potatoes, peas, gravy, and a mini apple pie

Living in the UK now and with my extended family back in the States, I don't feel much need to "celebrate" a true Thanksgiving, nor to Give Thanks for whatever the Pilgrims tried to do. But we still do a mean roast dinner. No yorkshire puds this time because we did mini apple pies instead.

Ok so I gotta level with you fam, this is not a Star Trek screenshot. It's one of those department of health posters you find in bathrooms that display helpful hand warshing techniques. The poster is 13 little comic book scene style squares displaying hands in various stages of hand warshing with music lyrics under each one to help you, the filthy hand warsher, know how long you should spend warshing your filthy, filthy hands. The top of the poster reads, "Hand washing technique with soap and water." And the music that reads under each square is as follows, "(1) It's been a long road, getting to there from here(2)It's been a long time but my time is finally near(3)And I will see my dream come alive at last(4)I will touch the sky, and they're not gonna hold me down no more(5)No, they're not gonna change my mind(6)'Cause I've got faith of the heart(7)I'm going where my heart will take me(8)I've got faith to believe-I can do anything- I've got strength of the soul(9)And no one's gonna bend or break me(10)I can reach any star(11)I've got faith(12)(I've got-I've got-I've got) I've got faith,(13)FAITH OF THE HEART" Faith of the Heart, credit to Russell Watson.*
