Couldn't have said it better. You have my respect @chriswarcraft.bsky.social

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

I feel nothing but pure, unbridled Dad rage at the human scum that is #elonmusk #fuckelon

Moderately applicable for the current environment here in the USA....

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

It's weirdly difficult to remember that Trump's popular vote margin was /less/ than Hillary's in 2016. Biden got more votes in 2020 than Trump got in 2024 and Trump surrogates all under-performed in congressional races. This is not a mandate, I don't get why it is being portrayed that way.

Why would a little boy say, “Shut the fuck up” if he wanted someone to be quiet? Was there someone in his life who maybe repeatedly said that to him? Also, where would he get the idea that Trump *isn’t* the President? Did someone also say that repeatedly to him?

Of course not! They modified it to say 'Armored Electric Vehicles', so clearly there is no conflict there! /s

Welp, we're officially in the 'If a US government agency recommends something, you should likely do the exact opposite' portion of the program. On a side note, I've worked on the administrative side of healthcare for a couple decades now. Happy to help answer questions.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

So like, I wouldn't buy a Jeep to begin with but are you fucking kidding me?? My car runs an ad every time I stop?? Hell no. Not even a consideration. You could offer me one for free and I would angrily decline.

A list of all the Kennedy Center board members Trump appointed including: Usha Vance Pam Bondi Elaine Chao (Mitch McConnell’s wife) Susie Wiles Himself Of course he was voted in as the Chairman! LOL

If we’re renaming bodies of water based on petty grievances, I propose that this be renamed the Kendrick Lamar passage.

Well, that's a pretty good way to think about it.

Anyone else getting strong hunger games vibes watching the previews for the new show Extracted?

Gotta say. This speech from Brad Pitt is really ringing hollow this year. Somehow he's talking about unity unironically. I guess we just need to 'huddle up'.

As the Superbowl approaches, I now realize how it felt for non-Patriot fans to watch the Pats play yet again. So, I'll be rooting for the Eagles tonight.

Thank goodness for small favors.

Way, way, Waaaayyy, WAY too FUCKING late @nytimes.com

Same, my brother. Same.

New favorite word alert!

Wrote up just how *actually evil* the demands from the Trump admin to NCMEC are and how they will *absolutely* lead to children dying. From the cultists who insisted they wanted to "save the children" to literally killing them deserves to be called out: www.techdirt.com/2025/02/07/m...

Just wrote about the UK Apple encryption mess. This is a BIG deal. It doesn't just apply to the UK. It would be an absolute disaster for online privacy and security. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/07/u...

SCOOP: A US Treasury threat intelligence analysis has designated DOGE staff an ‘insider threat'. An internal email reviewed by WIRED calls DOGE staff's access to federal payments systems “the single biggest insider threat risk the Bureau of the Fiscal Service has ever faced.”

Can everything just... not, for a minute
