I'm increasingly of the opinion that Tesla drivers come in two flavors
Good flavor: I regret buying this and won't make that mistake again.
Bad flavor (our shared experience): F' you, I'm rich and I'll do what I want, just like Elon.
He and I both had summons for this week and his summons was accidentally delivered to my mailbox, so I had taken it over to them a few weeks back. (2/2)
A blue tesla came speeding way too fast down the street at the end of the driveway today just after I walked the dog across the street on the way to the park. I glared at the driver, then realized it was my neighbor whose spouse had just bragged about how he dodges jury duty (1/2)
A new U.S. military investigation has revealed Trump and Pete Hegseth were likely responsible for the bombing of an Iranian girls' elementary school, killing 175 people.
Time series plot depicting predicted Nino 3.4 region ocean temperature anomalies from the latest (Mar 2026) ECMWF ensemble. It depicts an extremely rapid rise in such temperatures, from modest negative anomalies to strong positive anomalies, by mid-summer 2026--indicative of a transition from weak-moderate La Nina conditions to moderate-strong El Nino conditions over just a few months.
Whew.
All signs are increasingly pointing to a significant, if not strong to very strong, El Niño event. I'll have more to say in coming weeks & months, but for now I'll just say that this is increasingly likely to become a major regional-to-global climate driver in 2026-2027.
I remember this distinctly because there was like ONE U.S. news outlet that could be bothered to suggest maybe corporations shouldn't hire people who mock disabled children on television
This is not good.
Here's the point to remember about the brutal negative revisions in today's job market report: They aren't saying the labor market showed green shoots that withered. It's saying that there never were any green shoots. They were an illusion.
Arguing if Platner is a Nazi or not is a stalking horse for the argument over whether he's an idiot or not, and he is.
Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.
Now Netanyahu has driven people from their homes in Southern Beirut and is bombing targets in Lebanon. My prayers are with my Lebanese American friends whose families are fleeing the latest attack by this war criminal. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

The list of ICE and Customs and Border Protection sex offenders and sex pests is now up to 62.
Ahem
Yes, I voted for Harris. I prefer to refer to her by her last name, same as I would a male politician. Also, thanks to the electoral college, it didn't really matter to the electoral count whether I votes for Harris or not, still I thought the popular
vote outcome was symbolically important also.
"US military investigators believe it is likely that US forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school. The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of US conflicts in the Middle East." www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Of course, the site where the slogan is block early and often.
So you are right, O should not have bothered to respond. But TIL the definition of "tankie"
I continue to be gobsmacked at 1) how common this formulation is 2) how antisemitic and generally bigoted it is 3) and how for all the talk of anti-semitism this is never cited as an example even though it’s quite literally the original incarnation.
Also, get your pejoratives sorted man. I'm naming so called centrists. Tankie, a term I just learned, is a hardline stalinist, like WTF does that accurately describe in today's politics?

I don't calling people names that end in "ie". Sounds immature to me.
Noem is out largely due to massive public activism, especially in MN, Democrats expressing increasing interest in impeachment and investigations, and resulting media coverage.
Keep pushing. These people are not invincible or immune from public opinion.
“Almost all the 165 people killed in the attack were girls aged between seven and 12, according to local officials. There were around 170 girls at the school in southern Iran’s Minab at the time.“
A double-tap strike on little girls at school.
bsky.app/profile/anja... double-tap strikes, regardless of the target, are usually understood to be Geneva Convention violations because they target the wounded and aid personnel who are specifically protected under international law. The target here makes this an especially staggering evil.
definitely better for the analogy.
neither did I, neither did I.
Don' do Tom Petty like that, the man made some questionable decisions but that was not one of them.
Guns N' Roses was formed when LA Guns got together with Hollywood Rose. At least that is what wikipedia says.
Would you believe that today I learned... they are the same band 😲
PAT RYAN: 'Does the US want to be the policeman of the Middle East getting nothing but spending precious lives & trillions.' Rng a bell?
COLBY: Defer to you
R: That was Trump. How about this - 'we simply cannot afford to get enmeshed in a Middle East war'
C: Defer to you
R: That was actually you
Dollar, Dinero, dinar, close enough
Let me introduce to this little word I'm trying to make happen
Dinar
Democrat in Name, Actually Republican
They even have a logo already
Their opening act must be Gins & Roses.
That's the rules, sorry.
