"... so then we asked ourselves, 'maybe the problem was that those presidents weren't dumb *enough*?'"

But he didn't tie this in to the price of eggs! Really taking his eye off the ball and failing to execute on the Democratic Brand Promise™® here!

You need to start drafting articles of impeachment, not writing mildly disappointed social media posts. Put your marker down now that this is illegal, immoral, and that Democrats are not going to be complicit.

Reminds me of the smug rich asshole at the end of Atlas Shrugged (sorry, I was a teenager once) keeping occupied before emerging to take dominion over the smoldering remains of socialism by 'fixing' 'errors' in the Constitution (spoiler alert: the error was not allowing enough unfettered capitalism)

We live across from Citrus Park in Anaheim. On any normal summer evening, our little park would be packed to overflowing and we'd be fighting for street parking -- but the past couple weeks it's been *completely* empty. Totally heartbreaking and creepy as hell.

Others already guessed Travel Town; I'll further guess that the train on the right is PE/LAMTA Blimp 1543 -- the bile green color and the oval MTA logo was the first part of the background that caught my eye.

I think that 'former executive' is the key phrase in his bio; he sold to them, stayed just long enough to vest, and now he's a vulture capitalist and "trusted advisor". Of *course* he wants less spent on people; get your co. to the point it's minimally viable, sell it, and recoup *his* investment.

My single disappointment was that Patton Oswalt made a better Dr. Demento in the original Funny or Die short; apparently he broke his foot and Rainn Wilson was a last-minute sub. (As an 80s/90s teenage nerd growing up in SoCal, Dr. Demento fandom was mandatory...)

Halloween costumes aren't always made with the best materials. All of that dress-up cosplay might be taking a toll.

Can you add this one to the Threadless store too, please? I know it's too late for Saturday, but I know that's not the last time I'm going to need it ...

You don't need fucking answers. You know what happened. Time to shut the Senate down NOW -- no more regular order, no more voting for cloture, no more cloakroom comity.

(My local Fry's has become an Amazon distribution center; cue the Alanis Morissette...)

Micro Center has come back to the South Bay -- you can buy resistors and oscilloscopes there! It's got the scale of Fry's, but is actually pleasant -- no spinning the "will it be out-of-stock or repackaged?" wheel, no abandoned sections of the store filled in with shelves of mousepads...

Unabomber makes me think of Prof. Angelakos, his first UCB victim. *Really* nice guy -- I was his departmental computer support guy the year before he passed. Ostensibly I was helping him with Eudora or printing PDFs, but at that point he was really just coming to campus to have people to chat with.

Weren't we supposed to have the FAIRNESS METER robotically judging every Times article by now?

I pretty much switch between this and "Christ, if we'd elected Harris, this would have just been another normal day" on infinite loop these days.

Love that he's switched from suit and tie to military casual (but why a Mack Trucks hat instead of a Gadsden flag-inspired number or something?) WHILE OUR BRAVE MEN FIGHT IN THE STREETS, I FIGHT THE WAR OF PUBLIC OPINION! THE BATTLE HAS MANY FRONTS!

LAPD sweeping people out of the MOCA parking lot- I’ll follow up, I believe that’s private property?
Mural says “who is beyond the law? Who is bought and sold? Who is free to choose…” etc.

For a kid-specific atlas, my kids enjoyed Maps, by Aleksandra and Daniel Mizielińscy -- every page is lavishly, obsessively illustrated, with lots of details to dig into. The sample pages at their website are from the original Polish, but it's available in many languages: oladaniel.com/maps

Is Chuck losing his focus on Cheap Eggs, the Democratic Promise®™©?!? What does James Carville think of this message dilution?

It's the mirror-world Fry's -- items are in stock, repackaged returned goods don't make up half the store's inventory, and you're not being stalked by salespeople who want to get their name on your receipt so that they get a commission for things you've already selected without their help.

Like the guy who 'needs' a crew cab F150 instead of an EV because he has to move mulch and patio furniture every few years, I guess the purpose of these maps is to 'prove' that trains won't work for someone with an imaginary daily commute from Amarillo to Laredo, or from Ciudad Juarez to Shreveport?

For today, they've hired a skywriting plane to fly the same route and write EGGS over and over!

SUCH a downgrade when I started going to the grown-up dentist as a teen and the waiting room magazines turned into Golf Digest and Good Housekeeping.

Also, it seems that the Boring Company's TBM only digs tunnels that are 12 feet wide? That's not going to fit anything, especially anything with catenary. Maybe they'll propose passengers should transfer to Teslas in the suburbs for the final trip into Baltimore.
comment in response to

The safety and environmental record of their Las Vegas tunnels hasn't been great so far (toxic sludge, near-miss accidental crushings). Remember when Boring was supposed to be all about some REVOLUTIONARY new tunneling technology, and then they just bought a used TBM?

Finally a president taking on Big Anime! "Big men, strong red-blooded American men coming to me with tears in their eyes -- Sir, I try thinking of blonde bikini girls, but now I can only fantasize about android women in bunny suits who call me 'Senpai'! We need to de-Otakuize America's youth!"

But who knows, maybe Lou's decided that nothing matters and he's going to retire to El Salvador after this term?

Lou was one of two CA Dem legislators voting yea on H.J. Res. 88: clerk.house.gov/Votes/2025114
He did vote no on two other resolutions attempting to take away California's other Clean Air Act waivers, but you can be sure if the Republicans manage to take away one, they'll come after the rest.

Or maybe these articles are the first example of 2025's version of "In private, Jared and Ivanka quietly advocated for *not* drowning sacks of puppies on live TV" articles
