So the guy who is trying to clean up the country from spies in high places is now getting public friction from the entrenched establishment parties… Sure does sound like a hive of scum and villainy.

Things have changed. Before, the worst Facebook could do to its critics was ban them and those that they knew. Now Facebook can have ICE turnover your house without a warrant for a troll post. A private company is now working to suppress a specific kind of conversation that questions the judgement and actions of those in power. It’s a subtle but very dangerous difference in why a bad EULA may not have previously caused concern but the new one is.

The cruel and helpful birds from Flow!

We had an old foster who stuck with us and eventually Louise became ours. We had her for 2 years before her kidneys quit on her. With her appointment for the next day, we ran to every pet store we could and asked for the best treats they had. One store asked what we meant by best and we said “most unhealthy, best tasting dog junk food we can get.”

They had immediate suspicions, “What do you mean unhealthy?”

“Our dog is going to be put down tomorrow and we want to give her the best going away feast she can handle.”

The lady understood and ran to the back and returned with two more people. They knew the assignment. The five of us combed the entire store for bacon and steak and stuffed treats the likes of which Louise had never seen. She went out full and as happy as she could be.

Those end of life meals make a big difference to everyone involved. It’s celebrating their life.

Trump is so dumb he believes in American Exceptionalism, banked the future of the country against it, and now has shown how much hype it all was. Hype that was used to build a global economic empire, controlled the markets of unrelated cultures, and dominated geopolitics through it. Trump just killed all that hype and now each of those tent poles of American empire is crashing down, taking with it the image of America as GloboCop.

Sell it for parts. The EV motors are useful and the battery pack is still relevant. The rest can burn though.

The thumbnail is Tamatoa, so probably.

3 months in. That’s like 9 mooches.

Sad, sad Drinky Pete. He’s cursed with too many friends who share names in his phone.

This is what happens when Putin kills the caterer.

It sounds like they are describing Lord Admiral Charles Beresford.

I hope whoever put that in there wiped

I heard it was a Conservative made rap about the Liberal PM.

CEOs that look to subjugate instead of lead? That’s a plumbing problem.

Now do SpaceX rockets

The key blanks which are not yet working keys are destined for doors that are not yet made. The future of some trees will be the doors that hold the locks for which those key blanks are made.
