Trump saluting a flag-draped casket carried by soldiers, wearing his standard ill fitting suit and a white baseball hat that says USA in gold letters visible from space

I think it's great that the president put on his most solemnly branded baseball cap to receive the returning coffins of soldiers killed in the unnecessary war he launched to distract from his failing presidency and pedophilia scandal.

Look at that gold-like letting. Classy as shit.

Right? /s

Mr. Junod pushed the edges at a time when a big story in a monthly was read by everyone. In 1997, he sent shock waves through Hollywood when he slyly outed the actor Kevin Spacey in a cover story. In 2001, he made up parts of an interview with the R.E.M. lead singer Michael Stipe because he found him boring in real life. Some journalists and media critics felt Mr. Junod had crossed the line. He reveled in the controversy.

Wait, what?

Did you get to work with JWZ?

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

Kubrick, gone 27 years ago today. #RIP

Few directors were as brilliant at portraying the absurdities of war — like generals who say, “The men died wonderfully.”

But you can’t pump stonks into high heaven if you don’t add this moronic mystique.

There's always a tweet.

I still can’t believe that that account is not satire.

Had to doublecheck the date on this

I remember people putting "I did this" stickers with Biden's picture on gas pumps, showing they cared so much about gas prices.

So, the usual then. 😏

Oh, I'm well aware of this. That's precisely why I'm using it. I want to see this money go up in flames. 🤣

I'm going to milk this until the party is over. If I get $2,000 of "compute" out of this thing for my $20... then I consider this mission accomplished.

Yes. And we have to talk about this now, because talking about it is the first step to making it seem like a callous crime rather than a surprising emergency.

Yeah. That was a lot of fun. They kicked me out after a couple of hours when 84 was shut. Something about not wearing a high visibility vest and hard hat.

They are busy talking to each other on the bot socials, man.

To be honest, I wrote about 80% of the code myself. I had it do boring stuff like setting up Docker instances and configurations and backup and deploy scripts etc.

Ladies and gentlemen — the weekend.

So let me get this straight ...

3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil

Come on, man.

A widening Middle East crisis U.S. and Israeli attacks in Iran have prompted retaliatory strikes around the Gulf as the conflict spread across the region, rattled global markets and sent oil prices sharply higher.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine known as GLA-3M-052-LS+OVA, that protects against a wide range of respiratory viruses, bacteria AND even allergens. The vaccine is delivered intranasally AND provides broad protection in the lungs for several MONTHS.

I’m just using it for boring boilerplate and dev ops stuff. $20/month is more than plenty for that.
