Anytime a storm is brewing, your local forecasters are getting the latest data from NOAA. As the agency faces an uncertain future, one thing's for sure: for-profit companies would struggle to replicate NOAA's weather-forecasting prowess.

Slashing programs that ensure kids don’t go hungry, provide services for those fighting our ongoing opioid epidemic, and keep our seniors healthy to fund tax cuts for the billionaire class is barbaric. I won’t stand for it. youtu.be/BmVsG79K0Ys

Bill Kristol is praising @aoc.bsky.social. The country's turned upside down-- True patriots, left and right, are now all on the same side. For the duration.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned $21 billion to people who were cheated by big banks and credit card companies. So why are Trump and Musk gutting an agency that's returning money to people who were scammed? For them, this has never been about cutting costs.

Had to use more of that big bunch of #dill in the refrigerator so cooking #potato-dill-soup, but couldn't find potatoes (if we have any) so using #potato-flakes, and forgot to add the chopped dill to the sauteing red onions before adding the milk. The soup's not bad, considering. #home-cooking

Vought is giving big banks and giant corporations the green light to scam families. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned over $21 billion to families cheated by Wall Street. Republicans have failed to gut it in Congress and in the courts. They will fail again.

Curious to hear 'MacArthur Park' because of its mention in @catvalente.bsky.social's Space Opera. Tried about a half dozen on YouTube Music. I had to stop most versions after 1 second, but Sammy Davis Jr's version was pretty good--I was able to listen for much longer.

REAGAN: “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies… beware of demagogues ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, national security, and the entire free world—while cynically waving the 🇺🇸 flag.” Trump’s bad ideas are not new.

Predicted results from massive blind cuts to the federal government: Things will break. People will die. Enemies will exploit our weakness. Cleanup and repair costs will stagger the US economy.

The new Lenovo ThinkPad has the Ctl and Fn buttons reversed from where they were on the old Lenovo ThinkPad, which was reversed from where they were on the previous Lenovo ThinkPad. Does Lenovo have a division devoted to Evil Plots? #usability #Lenovo #ThinkPad

"PC App Store Runtime" was the evil process displaying obnoxious* popups on my new Lenovo PC. Found, ended, uninstalled. *(could not be covered and were hard to kill)
