I honestly miss twitter before it became a fascist bar (I think i followed you there too).

I donβt have many heros. If I had to pick a living hero it would be Martin Sheen.
Tonightβs movie is one of my favorites: βThe Wayβ with Martin Sheen. I dream of the chance to make the pilgrimage and I have for 34 years, since I first learned about it.
When Rodrigo Duterte was waging war against his own population in the Philippines, Pope Francis sent one of its most experienced diplomats to Manila.
That diplomat was Archbishop Gabriele Caccia.
Now Pope Leo XIV has chosen him to be the papal envoy to the United States.
I donβt know, but if all the previous oil shocks didnβt kill them I donβt have high hopes now either.
This is where Iβm glad we have a 10 gallon tank on our car and fill it about every 3 months on average.
What I first saw when we were still in Florida, after COVID, wasn't just ignoring stop signs but ignoring red lights and all other traffic laws alltogether. Lately (the last 6 months or so) I even see it here on the North Side of Chicago. It's insane.
Geezus fuck. Fuck Newsom. Can we at least look at Pritzker if we want a governor of a blue state? At least he seems to care about all his constituents.
I've completely fucked up a lot of shitty things in my life, but no nazi tattoos because you're exactly right.
Most WordPress events are plastered with sponsorships from Webhosting companies. An upcoming event that is focused on WooCommerce doesn't have any webhosting sponsors. If you're interested in being the premier sponsor for this event, get in touch with me.
I just can't repost, here or elsewhere, the horrors in the world. Sorry... my posts would change the mind of exactly no one. That said, my heart aches for those who deserve more from life.
This is all I'll say *here* on it.
The number of times I have to defend not being a democrat on any of these is insane yet this all is the perfect encapsulation of all of it for 30 years. Fuck them all.
Iβve messed up my Apple Music algorithm so badly that it just suggested this. music.apple.com/us/artist/th...
Not a bad day for a game
Poster saying hands off Iran and showing map of Iran with images of people protesting below. Logos of many Chicago organizations. Wording says Emergency protest today. All info in Bluesky post.
π¨π’ No war - hands off Iran! Join @chicago-cata.bsky.social coalition and other orgs in protest TODAY, Saturday, Feb 28th, 5:00 pm at Chicago's Federal Plaza, 230 S. Dearborn.
Iβm very close to this age (was 13 in 91) and had a similar thought this morning. The US has been starting illegal wars in the Middle East for my entire life.
On the positive side for today, our friend got us good tickets for the Chicago Fire home opener. I think she's trying to freeze my wife, but we'll have fun either way.

Weβve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably wonβt share intel with us. Because people couldnβt vote for a woman.
CNN reporting that the strikes on Iran tonight are joint US and Israeli strikes.
Which means Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time.
What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.
βif you wonβt let us use your product to spy on Americans and kill without supervision we will single-handedly destroy your business by fiatβ is the single most authoritarian anti-business action I can ever remember any administration taking
Guess who didn't say no to fully autonomous weapons and spying on Americans. His name rhymes with Damn Salt Can.
BREAKING: Israel has preemptively bombed Iran in a joint attack with USA.
This is illegal. Trump has 0 authority to wage war. It violates US Constitution & UN Charter. Iran says it will retaliate.
Impeach & prosecute Trump & end this criminalβs reign of terror. Further delay invites nuclear war.
I make bad decisions.

Michael Burry warns that Nvidia $NVDA earnings report reminds him of Cisco $CSCO at the peak of the Dot Com Bubble π¨π¨π¨
Iβve seen a number of conversations by tech folks who seem to think theyβre going to be immune from any negative AI effects as if their savings and investments arenβt going to crash and burn with everything else.
I normally like busy days because they make the work day go faster.
Today is both busy and horribly slow (HOW IS IT NOT 5PM ALREADY)?!?!
I do not like these days.
