I have had windows 11 on my work PC for fourteen days now

Every morning when I boot it up a little pop-up shows up saying "this dumb thing you don't care about needs a computer restart to finish installing properly"

Fourteen times.

It's great. It even comes with a permanent ad pop-up menu

Growing up poor, I never thought I'd have a set up like this. It may not seem like much to a lot of y'all, but I'm pretty proud of how far I've come in this moment. Just to have the luxury of being able to do something like this.

Calico cat curled up on the legs of a person under a white quilt. One paw is stretched toward the camera and her eyes are slitted as if she's woken up just to judge you.

Cruelty in actionโ€ฆKristi Noem, proud 14 mo puppy killer, has been confirmed as Secretary of Homeland Security. This department includes borders & immigration enforcement, & responses to natural and manmade disasters. This will provide lots of opportunities to cause pain.

Next Door disinformation posts regarding Jan 6 and migrant immigration status.
(1) director of the FBI testified to
congress that these ppl who were arrested were mostly government agents who were working on a operation. He literally told congress that he's not at liberty to discuss details because the unclassified report hadn't been drafted and released for public consumption yet. This is not a conspiracy im pushing. There's video evidence of him saying this. This is one of those rare instances where a president isn't actually being a hypocrite. He's pardoning ppl and commuting other ppls sentences because he know he has no choice.
Those agents have to be released at some point. They can't just rot in jail.
Government agents aren't allowed to disclose their status to city police while they're working on a classified job. So, if they get arrested, they have to go through the whole due process and get released later.
(2) person 1: Get ready for it get much much worse, crops are rotting in the fields as I type.
Without migrant workers farming will suffer greatly. Same with meat packing.
And just like tariffs, the extra cost will fall on us, the American consumer.

Person 2: Crops are not rotting in the fields. Migrant workers that pick crops are legal and have work visas. The key word is legal. The crops were getting picked just fine before the 15 million were let in.

Next Door disinformation posts regarding grocery prices, and promoting violence.

Post 1: HEB. Raising prices and cutting portion sizes, because HEB cares about Texas ALMOST as much as they care about profits.

Post 2: Bust the kneecaps so
they can't walk.

Post 3: But again This is Texas, we can
open carry.

Post 4: "those criminals" don't even
compare to the Antifa thugs that got away with total destruction.

Tomorrow I start my new class: Cults vs. Marketing.

I will post the syllabus weekly online & provide mini-lectures on TikTok & YouTube.

The course is based on my new book Hoodwinked: How Marketers Use the Same Tactics as Cults. As with any class, you will get more out of it if you read the text.๐Ÿ˜Š

Of course there is the corollary: "THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS THAN THE OSCARS."
a.) Yes!
b.) Caring about something fundamentally unimportant is vital, no matter how dark things become.
c.) We need art and conversations around it! The Oscars, though very silly, start those conversations.

Not to be a downer but most US corporations donated to both Kamala & Trump campaigns to hedge their bets.

โ€œWell white people voted for thisโ€

โ€œtroops voted for thisโ€

But not ALL did. If we believe in compassion for ALL humans, it doesnโ€™t matter now. Letโ€™s keep our mission focused on the Administration, & champion policies benefiting ALL of us. Donโ€™t be like them.
