The people now in charge of the Office of Personnel Management apparently don’t know how to scrub PDF metadata, and have exposed the original authors of the guidance they’re publishing. Two, Noah Peters and James Sherk, have links to the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.

Damn, I never got that EP. I don't think I ever even saw a copy of it.

Oh crap, I didn't know that it was prostate cancer that got him. That's what I had. He was one of my favorite guitarists and I love his second solo album Dreamtime more than Television's Marquee Moon.

Adam Schiff can't even do that. He's as wooden as Michael Dukakis was in the 1988 Dem primary debate, and that's saying something.

The Democratic party is maddening right now. The only way to respond to bullies is to bully right back. Stand up for yourselves, dammit.

My grandfather was in the Air Force, stationed in London, and played a small role in that specific day being chosen for D-Day.

Yes, I've been out of the path of smoke plumes for days and days. It's been like any other day of the year in the Westside. Thanks for asking!

Are you still doing ok in Sandy Eggo (generally speaking in life, that is)?

Mr. Zuckerberg was amenable. He signaled to Mr. Miller and his colleagues, including other senior Trump advisers, that he would do nothing to obstruct the Trump agenda, according to three people with knowledge of the meeting, who asked for anonymity to discuss a private conversation. Mr. Zuckerberg said he would instead focus solely on building tech products.

Mr. Zuckerberg blamed his former chief operating officer, Sheryl Sandberg, for Facebook’s culture, according to one of the people with knowledge of the meeting. He said new guidelines and a series of layoffs amounted to a reset and that more changes were coming.

It really is such masculine energy to blame things on a woman who no longer works at the company www.nytimes.com/2025/01/16/u...

I would've loved to have had your husband's career. I grew up as an auto racing fan, Indy cars and Formula 1 (50+ years now), and I was a Journalism major in college.

I'm available for interviews with any media outlet or podcast covering the Pete Hegseth Confirmation Hearing. I did not watch the hearing and have no knowledge or expertise related to the topic so I would not recommend interviewing me, but I am available.

I was 9 and watched that with my American History professor father and he told me I was witnessing history being made. We watched his farewell speech the next day.

Welp, now Trump's going to want to eliminate the SEC. Who needs pesky rules about stock trading anyway, right? /s

Deeply saddened by the news of British comedian Tony Slattery's death. I loved him. We had major things in common about our psychological life stories and I always wanted to meet him and tell him so. I wanted to emulate him in style and humor and thought he was handsome.

Hi, ASL interpreter of 30 yrs & a person w/ Deaf family here.

In response to the anti-ASL horseshit going around:

ASL and English are not the same language.

ASL has no written form.

Reading English subs is not = to seeing ASL & many Deaf ppl need sign to fully understand info.
