I've had pickle cotton candy and a pickle frosted cookie. I greatly regret both experiences.

I know it's a good problem to have when unemployed, but these job recruiters are draining me. What was "pick up missing certs while applying to ones that don't require them" has become a full-time job of answering calls/emails, tailoring & sending updated resumes, & trying to keep track of it all.

Got laid off today (fuck elon). No notice or severance (beyond pto being paid out). Still processing it all & what needs to be done to move forward. I thankfully have a great group of friends & family & luckily my husband makes more than I did. So we'll be fine overall, but still, ugh (& fuck elon)

Common conception of lift is air pushes up on the underside of wing. NASA/Bernoulli tell us the curvature of the top side of wing causes air to move faster, creating low pressure, _pulling_ the wing up.

Then you get to Mooneys/symmetrical airfoils & everyone just gives up trying to explain it.

For about 6 months after graduating, I was afraid my uni was going to come after my diploma as some sort of retroactive "lifestyle covenant" violation discipline. Even now, more than a decade later, I don't interact with any fellow alumni (not that I'd have much in common with most of them anyway)

Everyone 6 months and older is eligible to get a flu vaccine.

It makes no sense to restrict Covid vaccines to only people who have specific medical conditions.

The FDA is basing its decisions on politics, not science.

I love Pedro. Period.

Picture of dc comics character alysia yeoh holding a baseball with the colors of the trans pride flag on it while saying the words "please, I'm a trans woman in Gotham, of course I have a weapon"

One of the best things I've ever seen in a comic book

Project Liberal is @joshuaeakle.com's org. More libertarian taking back the word "liberal" than modern DNC liberal. I can't speak to how armed he is personally, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't have an issue with an armed populace.

Breaking: SCOTUS, in a 7-2 vote, blocks AEA removals from northern Texas during litigation The current notice being given by the Trump administration to those it wants to deport under Trump's AEA proclamation "surely does not pass muster," the court held.

SCOTUS stopped AEA deportations in northern Texas today — but it was much more. The 7-2 court also made clear that the Trump admin still isn’t giving people enough notice before it tries to deport them — and rejected a key argument DOJ made against certifying classes in AEA challenges.

Law Dork:

Police can question you and — even if you say nothing — they're allowed to testify about your "demeanor" and "body language" during questioning.

Most judges will allow this as a form of expert testimony.

That's why STFU is not enough. You need to explicitly say "I invoke my 5th amendment rights"

If you use biometrics (some would say "don't," but it allows complex passwords that wouldn't be reasonable to type in every time), know how to immediately disable them (or power off your phone) & proactively do so before possibly interacting with gov't agents.

Judge Session: I see no evidence of risk or danger of any kind. The court orders ICE to release Rümeysa Öztürk from custody IMMEDIATELY. She is free to return to her home in Massachusetts. Also free to travel within Mass and VT. I'm not going to restrict her travel, because I see no danger of flight

The wiki article on trounds indicates there's "tround adapters," essentially a plastic sleeve that goes over standard rounds. Of course, you'll probably either want to be 3d printing those or picking them up, as I doubt they're easy to source.

Useful in the modern era? Probably not. But so ingenious and unique it definitely fucks.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

I had a friend who had one randomly explode on him and cut up his leg a bit. Didn't end up costing them much. He was fine with the night being comped, but it could have been worse.

Rubio publicly criticizing an ally for cracking down on right-wing extremism. And Germany hitting back. We are in a new world

the fundamental failure of liberals to understand what guns mean. what police are. what you lose when you outsource your self defense to people who want you dead. if we die this will be what kills us.

the jobs of the future, where you will be a hereditary serf producing goods for your betters

Trump’s agenda is deeply unpopular. Republican members of Congress, especially in swing states, need to wake up and start speaking out, or risk losing their seats next year.

so, arresting judges should be more than enough reason for complete obstruction at in the house and senate. complete obstruction. anything you can do. interrupt proceedings, deny consent, holds on nominations.

everything.

The Justice Dept. has authorized law enforcement officers to GO INTO PEOPLE'S HOMES WITHOUT SEARCH WARRANTS if they suspect that someone is an "alien enemy"

I talked to @usatoday.com about Attorney General Bondi's "Guidance for Implementing the Alien Enemies Act," links below

My guess: giving them enough rope to hang themselves badly enough that SCOTUS won't bail them out of civil contempt confinement. Give them every chance to comply so that they can't claim the contempt was unintentional on their part or nitpicking by the judge.
