Anyway. With the CDC disbanded and the government shutdown, the reboot would be a very short movie.

Morgan Freeman: We have an outbreak, Doctor.

Dustin Hoffman: Due to the radical left-wing government shutdown, I am out of the office until Democrats in Congress get back to work and pass a budget.

I hope my daughter always remembers all the school nights I snuck her out of bed to come watch meteor showers with me in our backyard.

I hope she never loses the sense of wonder of staring at the universe or of safety tucked under her dad’s arm.

I hope she always remembers she is made of stars.

So make the most of it, learn everything you can about yourself, and do all the good you can within yourself. Because you ARE the universe, baby girl. Today, as a girl. One day as a tree. One day as a rock. One day as a comet. One day as a star. You are everything and everything is you.

I guess this is when we get to introduce the nation to the tale of the Bonwit Teller building: news.artnet.com/art-world/do...

Today's a fantastic day to make no configuration changes to your production environments. If something goes wonky, you'll go mad trying to figure out if it's the AWS issue (possibly reflected through a vendor of yours who uses them) vs. your own shitty, shitty code.

We all know it’s Caramel at the center

The president of the United States is destroying constitutional government and literally calling himself a king and the pathetic journalistic and political class of this country is busy winding itself into circular meta-debates over the correct way to perform their reaction or nonreaction to it.

The Obama Hope poster, but it's a frog and it says "Hop"

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

I need the signal chat that all the agency comm directors are in to leak.

Remember our mantra:

The gaslighting—from NC Republicans and many others—is really something else. They're just outright pretending that California launched this year's redistricting wars, even though it started with Texas. bergerpress.medium.com/general-asse...
