Did you know that the measles vaccine is typically given at 1 year of age, though in emergencies as early as six months? These malicious dipshits hurt everyone, starting with themselves. Choosing to destroy herd immunity should not be legal, everyone who does should be shamed out of public life.

Not DOGE bragging about discovering 380 Microsoft 365 licenses that were probably purchased at a volume discount. lmao. Yes, best to pay individually.

In Texas, said one doctor: “We’ve vaccinated multiple kids that have never been vaccinated before, some from families that didn’t believe in vaccines.” @nbcnews.com #measles www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Of the Chiefs of Staff, vice chiefs of staff, and judge advocates general of the three branches, Trump fired all the women and Black people.

Legitimately the stupidest man alive I cannot fucking STAND this shit

An engineer asked for a portable hard drive today because he needed to “suck off some data” from a computer. I should get points for maintaining composure and keeping a professional attitude.

fundamentally you can't do that because the US operates the secure intelligence backends for Tier 1 and 2 intelligence sharing

Finding answers to computer programming questions is tougher now since websites are generating AI slop non-answers to game search engine results; which ironically re-feed the same AI slop back into their own AI.

I remember Brad Meltzer's shitty ass reality show once tried to look into Ft. Knox, and it was the dumbest, most conspiracy laden bullshit hour of television I ever watched.

What if we held a bake sale?

Pushing live production code cooked up by some young coders over a week of sleepness nights in place of a legacy system that is fundamental to the operation of the US government is against every programming best practice.

Really good Washington Post story on climate change killing Minnesota outdoor rinks. Lest people think this is somehow a Minneapolis fuckup, Maple Grove has shuttered more than half its rinks, too. wapo.st/4gQSKkw (free)

The Dallas Marshal’s Office has some problems: missing firearms, broken safety lockers and a lack of documentation. “In my military background, if we had missing weapons, you’re looking at a dishonorable discharge,” one official said. www.keranews.org/news/2025-02...

I suspect this is a HUGELY underestimated factor in radicalization. If you look at, say, QAnon boards, it’s not really folks looking for scapegoats for their dire material circumstances. It’s middle-class people with boring lives who want to imagine they’re in The Parallax View.

Checked my hair this morning. I got Split Enz. (sorry, not sorry) youtu.be/wiqBlKnb91A

lmao the ads on x are now just direct pleas to the site’s owner

This is one of the rare era-specific cinematic jokes that continues to get funnier and funnier as time goes on

Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota. But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

Gave a presentation on doing continuous integration with Ansible collections and Git the other day. It was decent, but I have one peer that’s in the “I’m old and I’m not learning new stuff” career stage.

New York Times: How Trump is improving the student/teacher ratio. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The microscopic bee professors who run my computer may be tiny — but they’re not vaccinated, an op-ed by newly appointed NASA chief Damon Hatesworth

POV: You're 16, believe being in advanced placement math class means you're a once in a generation genius, and have just discovered Reddit.

Guy who doesn’t even respond to the mothers of his children: reply to my email or you’re fired

Uhhhhhh www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Finished the #taji100. Gonna keep going the remaining days to help my team get to 100%.

Can't handle voting; but they can 100% drive the private taxi for your burrito.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Rep. Grothman (R-WI): President Trump has done some very good things Crowd: Booooo

I was wondering how they were going to do this. youtu.be/IfQ61ECiB5I

Since I’ve been getting this a lot - if you feel like supporting me by buying a jersey or something, I would rather you make a donation to Trans Lifeline or The Trevor Project www.thetrevorproject.org

even if the recipient of this email were ambivalent about musk, opening with a line that concedes a compliment just reads like capitulation or calculation.

"[A]t no previous point in my lifetime has a sitting president had to appear on television and tell the public that he is not being manipulated by a scheming vizier. Not even George W. Bush had to do that, and plenty of people were suspicious of Dick Cheney." — @lopatto.bsky.social @theverge.com

I'm going to be doing a demonstration on Ansible later today, and I'll probably start with, "The reason you don't hear much about Ansible Collections is because their documentation is terrible."

How's that protest vote treating ya?

A little proud of this. www.dmagazine.com/micropost/le...

NEW: A @wired.com investigation into Google’s ad ecosystem found that users of its DV360 platform can—despite Google's rules against it—target ads based on highly sensitive traits like medical issues or financial hardship. @dell.bsky.social & @dmehro.bsky.social report: www.wired.com/story/google...

Anyone who says this is the year of Linux on the desktop never had to explain the DISPLAY variable or the Xauthority file.

nyt: "fondness for injecting regal themes"

This is an actual congressman, someone with the power and the platform to raise hell around what’s happening, and he’s missing the most fundamental opportunity to build a concrete, easy-to-grasp message. “The president isn’t a king” is being handed to you on a platter!

I ain’t reading all that. I’m happy for you though.
