Don’t feed the gulls! ⚠️

idiot

The student paper at the college at which I teach reports a "tsunami of takedown requests" from international students terrified of being targeted for innocuous, legitimate op-eds & opinions.. Many ask in person--leave no trace in writing. Reminds me of my father's account of studying in the USSR.

This administration sent 200+ fathers, sons, and husbands to be tortured in a foreign prison for the rest of their lives. 9 in 10 have no criminal record. None received any due process. If you *aren’t* outraged, you need to check your fucking humanity.

We've seen videos like this before, but usually when you see a tearful wife pleading with the kidnappers who have taken her husband, she's not talking to the U.S. president

I love sending my congressman emails, knowing that nobody reads them

Trump to Bukele: "Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It's not big enough."

It was really fun to look back at every phone I've reviewed over the last 13 years (37 of them!) www.howtogeek.com/ive-reviewed...

For your enjoyment: here is Secretary of Education Linda McMahon talking about implementing AI in schools, but pronouncing it "A1," as in "A1 Steak Sauce" www.youtube.com/live/lxrg28z...

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

nazism

id like to think that at least one person writes in caps lock all the time, holding down shift to get lowercase letters

Has anyone tried calling him President Pump? Haha, you know, like President Pump and Dump. Just a funny lark I came up with. I'll never be able to retire.

Microsoft employee disrupts 50th anniversary and calls AI boss "war profiteer." The employee sent an email to a number of Microsoft distribution lists after being ushered out of the event www.theverge.com/news/643670/...

hard to be productive when staring down the barrel of yet another recession

THIS NIGHTMARE WILL BE IN FULL COLOR

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

what a fucking moron

SCOOP: A WIRED review of public data shows that national security adviser Mike Waltz, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, and other top officials left sensitive information exposed via Venmo—until WIRED asked about it.

Looks like I've made an embarrassing public mistake. Time to do what alpha males like me do in these situations: whine and avoid accountability

A bunch of natsec officials violate basic operations security, putting service members at risk, and FOX News cowards into "wah wah woke journalism" nonsense. Everyone in that Signal chat should be court martialed. We've handed out decades-long prison sentences for less egregious natsec violations.

clown cabinet

Jessica: When I hear Republicans out there talking about their plan for education in America, I don't hear them talking about making sure disabled kids have access to a public education. Greg: Because we're against it.

love how Google always switches me over to my personal account when I try to use Search Console. love that this problem has existed forever and will never be fixed

do any characters in Star Trek ever mention toilets, or are toilets obsolete in the future?

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

Today is the 35th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl, in which disabled activists discarded their mobility aids at the foot of the Capitol steps to climb them in support of passage of the Americans with Disabilities Ac. Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins, 8, told reporters "I'll take all night if I have to!"
