Trump is, as always, a huge asshole trying to bully others. We need more people like Gov. Mills.

Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds. Gov Mills: See you in court

Fed up with the excuses people are making for still driving Teslas despite all the shame Elon Musk has brought upon the electric vehicle brand, today one local man hilariously spray painted a giant red dick on someone’s—ah shit, that’s a Hyundai.

RFK Jr.’s CDC just pulled a flu vaccine campaign in the middle of the worst flu season in 30 years. 29 million illnesses, 370,000 hospitalizations, and 16,000 deaths—including nearly 70 children. Public health shouldn't be political. Get vaccinated.

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

A wish of mine is for Trump, Musk, Vance, Miller, and so many more to take a ride on one of Musk's rockets.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

I want to have a bunch of Wolverines doing a marathon and call it "Logans Run."

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

Real funny that Rob Manfred is talking about getting e-mails from fans concerned about their team not being competitive. Real funny after what Manfred and the rest of MLB's owners let John Fisher get away with when it comes to the Oakland A's.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

An incredibly important exchange here for more reasons than one. It’s worth it to note: this DOJ lawyer, Jason Lynch, is tanking his credibility in defense of an insidious, pretextual, and asinine Trump Administration policy. This kind of stuff will forever haunt you professionally.

Do they still think they've won…

Blogged about Barkley: his decade-long beef w/ Warriors fans + San Francisco, his big donation to Glide, and what appears to be a change of heart—or at least the end of the bit. cc @bradymccollough.bsky.social + @sfstandard.com sfstandard.com/2025/02/17/s...

I get the plight of creators and artists, but if I buy something like music or a book digitally and the company/service I'm using gets to decide I can't access the material at some later time, you can miss me with "piracy is stealing." Don't "steal" something I paid for, then.

"Musk keeps using these guys because they’re willing to do things these other more experienced people are not." that is, crimes talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/is-th...

“What are you worried about? Elon’s so rich he doesn’t need your money!” His businesses rely on your taxes Elon isn’t doing this personally. He’s got unvetted employees with access to your financial information. He’s wrecking our institutions so he can replace them with his businesses- for money

man you've really just gotta hate America and its citizens to cut back on the damn National Park Service. you've gotta have no interest in what makes our country unique and no desire for people to experience it

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

I'm supposed to be seeing Oasis in Pasadena this September. With all the crap going on with firing people in different agencies, especially the FAA, my confidence in flying is not exactly high right now. I could drive it from the Portland area, but I'll consider Amtrak.

The problem is those answers need to be correct or people will go on not knowing any better, and the correct answers are out there with a little more research. Unless and until AI LLMs can be perfect, they cannot and should not replace traditional learning. Even Wiki is better with proper sourcing.

📢 App Version 1.98 is rolling out now, including: (1/5) • a new option for who can reply to your posts • search posts by a user • lots of little improvements to make the app feel better!

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

This is my complete and total lack of shock or surprise. www.joemygod.com/2025/02/trum...

no president has done more to make sure you get mangled and killed at work than donald trump

Since the Washington Post didn't want you to see the anti-Musk ad with your newspaper, please check out this website and share it around www.commoncause.org/work/fire-el...

There’s gonna be so many variations on this theme over the next three years and eleven months. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

I was wondering why someone's alarm was going off, waking me up. This had been parked illegally in the accessible spot right outside my patio. Bye! Hope the cost of the tow is worth it!

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

All the MAGA idiots are calling Trump the People's President because he did a lap on the Daytona track in one of the Presidential cars. Yeah, you shallow-ass losers go with that while he fucks everything up and continues to make your lives worse.

One of the best days of the year.

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.
