They thought we were celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death. We just weren’t mourning.

You wanna see celebration? Wait till Donnie keels over.

28, plus a few just at airports. More than I expected.

Done. And I’ll forget, and be pleasantly surprised when it pops up (and hopefully not try to buy it again when it comes out.)

Breaking: it’s Biden‘s fault that Donnie has congestive heart failure.

Clearly the way to fix our two-party system was to elect fascists who will make it a one-party system.

Hadn’t seen you much, but I know life gets busy. Just finished Twice as Dead. Excellent, and glad to see it will be a series!

TELSEY begins tracking price increases over the past week. Some highlights:

* Abercrombie jeans: up 33%

* Amazon Echo: up 38.5%

* Target / Barbie doll: up 42.9%

I got the shot in ‘68. But I also got it in ‘83, probably as prep for going to college.

A screenshot of a New York Times article titled "The People Carrying Out Musk’s Plans at DOGE," dated February 28, 2025. The article discusses a group called the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), formed by Elon Musk to restructure federal agencies, primarily composed of software engineers with little Washington experience. The mandate of the group appears to be shrinking and disrupting the federal government. Below the text, there is a grid of headshots labeled "DOGE leadership," featuring individuals with red markers on some photos, indicating possible identification or emphasis.

When you want to know who betrayed our Republic alongside Musk, start here.

Apparently “America First” means “lick Putin’s boots.”

Thanks. This actually makes me feel optimistic- for as long as I can keep from worrying that he won’t leave.

I admit I did not have “US colony in Middle East” on my bingo card even with this dispshit in charge. But then I didn’t see “racist leakers in charge of national budget” either. Oops, I guess I did, just in a macro sense, not a micro one.

“How dare you get in my way when I’m doing something stupid?”

Republicans have stopped pretending “it’s a republic, not a democracy!” They don’t even want a republic anymore. They want a dictatorship.

TV and computer. Kinda needed the computer. TV is a spare staying in box.

Breaking: Trump demands GM rename GMC Denali to GMC Mt. McKinley

In 2016 we elected an incompetent, racist buffoon, and things got pretty bad. This time he’s a vengeful incompetent treasonous racist buffoon, and things will be worse. The fact that his incompetence is one of his better qualities is the only thing that might save the nation.

Can confirm.

Just started this. The first one doesn’t even sound like you. Well written, but written differently. Can’t wait to get back to it.

Went to preorder it and: I already had.

A tweet by @anyone_want_chips discussing Donald Trump’s proposed policy to end birthright citizenship. The tweet notes that four of Trump’s children wouldn’t qualify as U.S. citizens under such a rule: Don Jr. (born 1977), Ivanka (born 1981), Eric (born 1984), and Barron (born 2006 before Melania's citizenship in July 2006). The tweet includes photos of Don Jr., Ivanka, Eric, and Barron Trump.

The rules apply to everyone else, not his own family.


Done!

Things I’m tired of explaining to people on Twitter:

• Yes, scientists know more than you do.

• No, your own “research” is not better than peer-reviewed data.

• Your vs. You’re

• No, Hitler did not have a point.

• A constitutional republic is a form of democracy.

I see Trump just picked Dr. Pepper for HHS, and General Motors as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

I always put stuff in a place “that makes sense”- and then poof, gone, might have to buy another.

Don’t post much so not sure I’m worth following here. I do still have the aviation museum map you shared once, and associated FB group that has really taken off.

I really liked that one. Currently finishing up rereading The War That Came Early series, next the new compendium. Plus I have an older collection in the ebook queue.
