He also used to sell scam apps (technically, he sold a scam marketing plan to an app maker). But the toilet company was truly a masterpiece of engineering. bsky.app/profile/dgri...

Irony: If Trump had embraced and demanded Congress pass the bipartisan Russia sanctions legislation, he'd already have a Congressionally-blessed way to impose massive tariffs against many of the same countries he targeted, including China and India.

Prince Andrew's Arrest Across the pond in Britain, justice and accountability is a serious matter

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647.

I’m so tired of saying it but there are ways to use AI without totally abandoning the appeal of your product. It doesn’t have to be all or nothing!

Premier League ruling: Madueke credited with Arsenal’s second against Leeds Noni Madueke has been credited with Arsenal’s second goal against Leeds yesterday, in the 4-0 win at Elland Road. The winger got an assist for Martin Zubimendi’s opener, but when Karl Darlow punched the ball into his own net – despite the corner looking like it was β€˜on target’ – the goal was initially given […] The post Premier League ruling: Madueke credited with Arsenal’s second against Leeds appeared first on Arseblog News - the Arsenal news site.

Pure doomerism nonsense

Care to say how they can achieve that when the elections are run by each state?

Operation Trump Rehab After a wave of public revulsion over the President’s immigration crackdown in Minnesota, he offers a familiar playbook: distraction, disinformation, denial, delay.

Trump's awful post about Alex Pretti am confirms this point -- he's not sorry, he's not pivoting, and he'll use the same playbook as ever to survive yet another scandal that would have destroyed any other politician

MAGA influencers want anti-ICE protester whistles to be β€˜considered a violent weapon’ β€˜High IQ people don’t respond well to shrill noises,’ Mike Cernovich tweeted before taking aim at the β€˜hearing loss causing machines that terrorists use against ICE.’

Like, sure, bring on the protest songs by famous singers. But it's the people's "music" that's really spooking these MAGA ghouls. This machine (a whistle lol) kills fascists.

9-9-6 was a Chinese term invented mostly to show how depressing and lifeless work culture was; watching softbrained AI guys adopt it as an ideal is ... well, entirely predictable

A Well Regulated Militia is Not Terrorism Anti-Ice Protest Open Carry Douglas County Fairgrounds Jan 31 - 1 pm

Holy shit, there's an open carry #2A protest of ICE happening in Douglas County Colorado -- a very wealthy and very red suburb county of Denver. (I lived there for 16 years.) The Trump Administration pissing off committed gun owners sufficiently for them to join the protests against ICE is wild.

This is unconscionable.

Kristi Noem's DHS standing by 'domestic terrorism' label for Alex Pretti.

I have to wonder if it's because they've officially entered him into the NSPM-7 system as such.

I’m done with this shit. This isn’t a game. And if you don’t realize that the work of Judges Xinis and Boasberg and Ellis has been an essential part of forcing this administration to account for its actions, you’re not a serious person.

One thing has become clear: American citizens don't like being treated by Border Patrol & ICE the way Border Patrol & ICE often treat immigrants without anyone paying much attention.

Tweet from the US Holocaust Memorial Museum: "Anne Frank was targeted and murdered solely because she was Jewish. Leaders making false equivalencies to her experience for political purposes is never acceptable. Despite tensions in Minneapolis, exploiting the Holocaust is deeply offensive, especially as antisemitism surges."

The US Holocaust Museum being more outraged by Tim Walz saying that, like Anne Frank, children today are in hiding from armed agents of the state, than they are about the fact that children are in hiding from armed agents of the state, is why Holocaust remembrance culture is in crisis.

"Abolish ICE" is a simple, direct slogan but Border Patrol agents are on the scene in Minneapolis as well and it was one of them who killed Alex Pretti
