It's the Matrix, what's not to like?

Google parent Alphabet beats forecasts with first $100bn quarter Strong demand for ads and cloud services powered tech giant’s growth as it makes multibillion-dollar AI investment

Remember "Don't be evil" ? Turns out scrapping that old fashioned motto was good for the bottom line. The rest of the planet? Not so much.

We use poll books in Minneapolis, and have a paper backup if there's a problem.

Worth the read

Revealed: Pentagon orders states’ national guards to form ‘quick reaction forces’ for ‘crowd control’ Pentagon memo details plan to train over 20,000 national guard members across the US to carry out Trump’s order on subduing civil unrest

The only reason for this is that they are planing to do something so outrageous that even the typically docile Americans will react with fury. I'm thinking 2026 election.

"Christmas for Criminals"

Perhaps @thedailytism.com is for you...

Totally worth burning the environment.

This will become the Swiss Army Knife of autocratic oppression.

It's the racism, of course.

Tax the rich, close the loopholes, hike the capital gains tax, remove the social security tax cap, enact a minimal wealth tax, and increase the corporate tax rate. Jail the owners using immigrants for slave labor. Reduce the number of multi-billionaires. Tax them like it's 1950.

There are no weeks in nature either. Just sayin'

They are crashing the economy on purpose.

I'm between anger and heartbreak. #F*ckTheNYTimes

The sacred American spaces desecrated by the American president The American faithful must find their voice if the divine American idea is to survive

America is a shared story of the quest toward the more perfect union

What an idea: America is always in motion, lost if perfection is attained but thriving in pursuit. Constant reforging makes America ageless, immortal

But Trump does not want to be more perfect

I love shopping on Sunday. I go about 8 AM. No traffic, open parking, minimal competition in the aisles. Home in time for breakfast.

I just canceled Spotify and I recommend that you do the same.

Looks like Deezer might be a good alternative. Cheaper too.

Yeah, no.

Please talk to Amy, I don't think she understands.

Fox News said the Minneapolis turnout was 100,000. That would be 25% of the city's population. Seems like front page material, unless you are putting your thumb on the scale.

The Trump administration, in one image.

Old image of fallen library shelves.

Well, almost never...

Looking at you @startribune.bsky.social

Like the dog who caught the car.
