Gandalf really is heroic when you consider that there were originally five wizards and one of them turned evil, two of them fucked off and went out east to have orgies, and one is just super into talking to gophers. The one last hope of free peoples was the stoner and that crazy mfer did it.

It actually has all the buttons and a shitload of wiring in it, but it was all cut. Going to have to spend some serious time getting it to light up again, it’s a rat’s nest in there.

I-10 closed between San Antonio and Houston because CBP obliterated a washing machine that fell off a truck with an M1147 AMP from an M1A2

According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

There’s a whole-ass DHD from a puddle jumper in my dad’s warehouse waiting to take up SOME part of my house but damned if I know what to actually do with it. It is not small!!

The person photographed here who is in their bathrobe filming armed, masked federal agents in St. Paul is MPR News journalist @samstroozas.bsky.social @mprnews.org . She is an incredible journalist and person. We do not deserve her.

It took me months, about 495 rides, recovering from a shattered right foot and hacking a folding scooter, but I finally own a Nintendo Switch 2 using points obtained from Citi Bike. Afterwards, it left me questioning the very nature of work. For @aftermath.site.

6:47pm, Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2026: A woman is seen typing "I am ecstatically applying to..." in a word doc at a small local library.

She did not seem ecstatic. Took everything I had to not walk over and say "lady, I feel ya."
