Got an email from DOG(e) asking me to send him 5 bullet points on what I did in his service over the last week or he was going to fire me. Of course, I think I can bribe him with some cryptotreats.

Earlier I posted about Lachlan Morton's Ride from Auckland to Wellington in a day. Rapha created a short video of the ride. Really cool, esp having the grainy video of the Brian Fleck doing it (along with him and his wife in the video). content.rapha.cc/us/en/story/...?

To: Elon Musk (Supervisor) From: Donald J. Trump (employee) Per your request I am outlining my biglies from last week. (1) Destroyed Atlantic Alliance, (2) Sold out Ukraine to Russia, (3) Played Golf, (4) Tariffs, Tariffs & More Tariffs, (5) Signed more P2025 Exec Orders. #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

Good explanation (from Australia) why DOGE and #Musk's nonsensical #DOGE goals is totally bonkers BS. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lG9p...

#Musk is really close to the rails on this ... Maybe it is all the Ketamine -- side effects of which are lowered attention span and blurred vision, engagement in dangerous behaviours, neglect of responsibilities, distorted perceptions of reality. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBTI...

READ Danielle Sassoon's letter to AG Pam Bondi, via @nytimes.com: "Rather than be rewarded, Adams's advocacy should be called out for what it is: an improper offer of immigration enforcement assistance in exchange for a dismissal of his case." static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

What is startling is how almost no one seems to remember or know anything about Black September -- when the PLO attempted to oust King Hussein and take over Jordan ... but I guess history is not Trump's strong point. #Blackseptember #Gaza #Trump www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Hey ‘Merica. 12 of these precious orbs for £2.79. About $4 in Colonial money.

Ouch

Residents of Trumpistan. Saw this while out walking the dog today. In colonial money they are $2.50. Of course, these are 'woke' eggs but my guess is you would suck it up to get your hands on these babies as they were more important to you than democracy. #eggs #TRUMP

Actually, it means absolutely nothing to me. I could not care less whether it lives or dies. #TikTok us.cnn.com/2025/01/17/t...

Jesus clearly misspoke when he supposedly said "the meek (πραΰς) will inherit the Earth" ... what he meant was "the geek (σπασίκλας) will inherit the Earth"

Billionaire immigrant calls out Americans for being lazy. Open the floodgates of the great replacement -- where lazy American billionaires are being replaced by hard working foreigners!

Great man and great human being. I worked with him when I was a very junior academic and found him unbelievably supportive of someone he didn't have to pay any attention to at all. A life well lived. RIP my Friend. www.ft.com/content/f56f... @financialtimes.com
