What would Putin do if he wanted to destroy the United States?
Exactly what he is doing.

I wrote down some notes on privatization and the transfer of wealth. Tell the MAGA in your lives that theyโ€™re subsidizing billionaires by voting for republicans.

Trump Administration Orders Work Halted on Wind Farm That Is Nearly Built

The Trump regime is waging war on all of human civilization and on the planet we all share and have a sacred duty to preserve and protect.

The only right answer to such self-destructive insanity is:

NO!!!!!!!!!!

Past few weeks it has been flickering videos, freezing and greying out, and crashing the Windows background to black. Don't know how it does the last part but that's what happens. Had to go back to Chrome.

How much do you think Thomas and Alito made for that ruling?

Jeep claiming it is the "most patriotic car maker." Unlike the commies at Chevy and Ford. And it "stepped up" for the country in WWII presumably with nice contracts...

Not watching news, so watching tons of archeology/anthropology (my former profession) videos on YT. Impressive new findings that Neanderthals, Denisovans, and Homo Sapiens existed simultaneously in some parts of the ancient world and interbred. Not unlike the United States of America today.

I just tuned to MLB network and three baseball yakkers made an allusion to some team/player budget issue and one said "they should bringing in Elon!" They laughed their asses off. These morons have an audience and not a fucking brain between them.

Someday historians will write that when Americans should have been rioting in the streets we sat alone, gazing at screens trying to craft amusing quips to attract "followers," just like the social media oligarchs who were tearing democracy down had trained us.

The only thing I miss from the old site are the horse racing folks. Used to be able to follow and occasionally communicate with folks like Barbra Livingstone and The Mig.

Not sure which is worse, tariffs or the Dell exorbitant add-ons if you want any sort of warranty protection -- essentially doubled the list price of two Dells I ordered yesterday.

I must have pushed some wrong interest buttons when I joined BlueSky. I am seeing some nice photography, but for "Computers," I am getting random Linux comments that are so far down the rabbit hole the rabbits can't even find them.
