my dog when I ask what’s in his mouth

A guy who used to be a comedian & is good at improv and dealing with hecklers and who has also spent the last 3 years in a war zone turns out to be a guy you can’t out-alpha, imagine that

ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about? VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

no the three staffers left at yosemite aren't yosemite sam, foghorn leghorn, and tasmanian devil. that isn't true

Everybody knows Michelle Yeoh was a beauty queen and competed in Miss World. But I just learned a fun fact: While she was Malaysia’s entry, Hong Kong’s entry that year would also wind up an acting legend. It was Maggie Cheung, believe it or not.

A new bat coronavirus that has the capacity to spread to humans, similar to the one that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, has been discovered by a Chinese researcher. Good thing we are completely prepared this time. www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

how is this from 2022

Sure looks like Google News caught the Latin Times using a large language model to write an article picking up on my latest report

Well that’s no good.

This is totally a first world problem but it bums me out that the Starbucks in TU’s StartUp coworking joint at the armory has closed. It came in clutch when I found myself working out of there, as I am today.

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

Does this qualify as an emergency yet or should we check the polling in swing districts first

I have started to hear about specific National Cancer Institute firings of experts and professionals that will have immediate impacts, like regarding the safety of drugs in clinical trials and so on. They are trying to kill people with cancer.

A new North Dakota bill would require stores to pull any book with any "material harmful to minors" from the shelves. For those in the cheap seats, that effectively means ANY mention of sex, sexuality or gender. A bookseller could be arrested for displaying 1984. www.inforum.com/opinion/colu...

Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany on Saturday accused Vice President JD Vance of unacceptably interfering in his country’s coming elections on behalf of a party that has played down the atrocities committed by the Nazis. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/w...

Went to Oleum at Harborplace with Tina tonight. Loved it. Can’t wait to go back.

Happy Valentine's Day, especially to anyone who might identify with one of the letters in LGBTQ, particularly the day after someone Trumpy stripped the letter T and then the letter Q from the National Park Service website for Stonewall in New York City.

Scoop: The top two editorial leaders at the Los Angeles Times contacted owner Patrick Soon-Shiong this week to "set the record straight" about "unfair and false" comments he backed about his own reporter. Details in @status.news: www.status.news/p/patrick-so...

Trump: "Like on tractors that can handle anything from hurricanes to lightning to anything. They use magnets. It's a new theory -- magnets. They're gonna lift the planes up. And it doesn't work."

My hometown newspaper ‘sparks fury’ by… reporting the news www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Trump administration fires staff at the Small Business Administration. Then it tells them oops, our bad, your jobs are safe. Then it fires then again. Via @josheidelson.bsky.social www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

"The best and the worst thing about vaccination is that it 'makes nothing happen.' A child successfully inoculated against measles doesn’t fall sick with that condition, doesn’t miss school, doesn’t go to the hospital. They don’t suffer life-changing complications. They don’t die prematurely."

It looks like Kendrick has won for now but sources tell me Drake has a devastating rebuttal planned for his performance at the Kids’ Choice Awards

Drake rn:

NPR story is up! This might air on this evening's ALL THINGS CONSIDERED.

LMAO got the 2-hour delay message from the school district

Serena Williams was on the field longer today than Harrison Butker.

This is.. concerning. www.cnn.com/2025/02/08/p...

Even more than the hats, I will miss his kindness and decency. He was one of a kind.

I don’t know what all the fuss is about, it’s not like this is the World Series or something.

Shocking but hardly surprising that Fox Sports is putting Cleatus The NFL Robot front and center in its Super Bowl coverage despite his extremely well-documented actions on January 6. That's the country we live in now.

Game hasn't even started and I'm like

Grimace but pronounced like Versace.

They’re absolutely going for it. Doesn’t mean they’re going to be successful, and in fact I think it’s like shooting the moon, but everyone needs to understand what they are attempting.

Kristi Noem claims Trump can unilaterally shut down FEMA and suggests the federal govt should just give "block grants" to state for disaster relief

Proud to be associated with the innovators in this story.

Flu update: feeling like 85% better aside from the pressure from the ear infection. Might go to movies today. Might watch Super Bowl. Or Puppy Bowl. One of those.
