Back up, your Oura ring was doing actual damage to you?

I give clients the "I have two jobs" talk multiple times a day, lol. In public, my job is to be your best advocate. In private, it's also my job to give you my honest assessment... which isn't always pretty.

Jeffries gave up fighting for his constituents long ago. Sucking up to Trump is way more personally beneficial for him.

Laughs in Abq criminal defense attorney. They don't use any special set up for attorney visits here. We just wander through the pods. No reason attorneys need a special room set up for them to visit.

To be fair, even good attorneys couldn't win this shit.

"They were discarding it anyway. There's no privacy interest in sewage."

A President Pritzker or whoever signs an executive order making the US a party to the ICC (yeah, it theoretically requires Congressional approval, but the President is king now), rounds up Hegseth et al, and jets them off before their lawyers can intercede.

When the US falls ass backwards into a war with Venezuela with a significant percentage of our own population rising up in protest, I bet Putin is going to find that very intimidating.

Be serious, the US would never start that.

We'll likely start agreeing it's a good idea once Putin starts pushing it. When it comes to Russia, Trump has proven repeatedly that he doesn't have any original ideas other than how creatively he can say "yes Daddy Putin."

How many Americans are we losing to alcoholism every day?

Are we going to declare war on Anheuser-Busch and drone strike the Clydesdales?

ADHD is like an ironic curse from the ancients:

You will have incredible memory and recall, able to recite entire movies from memory and answer immense amounts of trivia, but you will lose your keys unless you put them in one specific spot in your house every time.

If you live in Albuquerque, please go vote for Keller in the runoff even if you didn't in the general (I didn't).

He's lacking in some important areas but his White supremacist opponent will cause much more harm. It matters a lot.

I deal with APD every day. As unhinged as they are under Keller, I shudder to think how terrifying they would be with whoever White would put in as chief.

That's wild. I never would have guessed that.

Do we think there's any evidence at all to back up the 1/6 claim?

Beyond the fact that 1/6 is an extreme claim, the number itself feels like a fairly obvious troll.

While everyone is debating whether the second strike was legal, let me point out that none of the first strikes were legal. If a foreign government started blowing up US boats, killing Americans, in international waters, that would be illegal. The US would consider that an act of war.

"Scapegoat" - if he in fact gave the order he's a war criminal at best. Regardless of whether he was following hegseth's orders (he was)

This. Everyone down to the person who pulled the trigger had a responsibility to refuse this obviously illegal order. One can argue degrees of responsibility depending on location in the chain of command, but they're all war criminals.

Don LaFontaine.

One of my favorite hotel hacks: the hotel gym frequently has good filtered water. And there's no rule that you have to actually use the gym to get water there.

And yes, you interpreted correctly. It's just the 4 of us this year. Fuck tradition, we're just making something good that we rarely make, so it's still special.

YouTube video by Munchies How-To: Make Action Bronson's Chicken Parm

One of the all time best cooking videos.

Asked my child to eat the cranberry sauce with a fork not her hands like an animal.

She has apparently reached the age where she's comfortable rolling her eyes, ignoring me, and responding "dad, we're all animals."

I'm simultaneously irritated and proud 😆🤣.

And not at all an obvious pretext to pump up those deportation numbers by any means necessary.

[rereading it to correct initial impression that he laid the eggs ON Kimmel] no no this is still problematical no matter how the sentence is written

The average Fox News consumer thinks the Guard deployments have something to do with crime. They don't know they're just standing around looking bored and occasionally picking up trash.

All Whiskey Pete is doing is sending 500 more people away from their families and friends at the holidays.

I am saying that they are uniformed symbols and it absolutely sucks that neither MAGA nor those attacking them give a shit about the humans in the uniforms. Both sides see them as nothing but tools to an end, and undoubtedly both sides will make full use of those tools. Fuck them both.
