No Flinching by Stephen King. It’s a good book, but you really have to go back and start with the Mr. Mercedes series.

I’m starting to think having my dick out this whole time hasn’t been working.

Still mad that they fucked up KSP2. I realize it was a different studio, but I’m not happy about it.

When Chipotle got a new CEO (Brian Niccol, who has since become the Starbucks CEO) a few years back, they were headquartered in Denver. But the CEO lived in Newport Beach. So they brought in a consulting management firm to examine where the best place in the country was for them to have their corporate headquarters.

After weeks of analysis - surprise, surprise - they determined that the best place they could possibly have a corporate headquarters was in Newport Beach, where the CEO lived.

So they fired most of their corporate workers and moved the office to be closer to the CEOs house.

Ramos says 38% of the U.S. military are noncitizens, and believes thousands are being deported for non-violent crimes.

Holy shit that’s wild. I had no idea the numbers were that high. I always knew the military targeted poor people, but didn’t realize how nearly half of them weren’t citizens.

Didn’t Twitter get rid of timestamps?

Which kind of blows my mind. Coal miners should love EVs. There was a story in the news a few years ago about how nice it was for the miners to help someone in an EV, as if they should be mortal enemies.

Non-EV cars don’t run on coal, they run on gasoline. EVs on the other hand can run on coal, natural gas, solar, wind, you name it - and still are more energy efficient than cars burning gasoline. In a sane world, coal miners would be throwing their support behind electric vehicles. The utility companies seem to understand this, but seems like the support hasn’t made its way up the supply chain.

Not just photographing. She said:

Photographing, reporting and disseminating such men’s images online will be a piece of cake.

So feel free to take pics of her peeing and post them online.

Here are some sample questions

• Recall five unrelated words, such as: “rose, chair, hand, blue, spoon.” (You will be asked to repeat them immediately after the test-taker gives them to you, and then again later, toward the end of the test.)
• Count backwards from 100 by seven. You also may be asked to calculate using currency, such as determining what change you might expect from your $20 bill if you were charged $13.55.
• How many words can you name in one minute that start with F? (Or you might be asked to name words that fit a category, like fruits.)
• Identify animals from pictures (such as a zebra or tiger).
• To test your visual perception, you may be asked to identify objects drawn within a jumble of other objects. Or, you may be asked to draw a picture (such as a cube) based on a drawing shown on the test form.
• The “clock test”—common in many dementia exams—is part of the MoCA dementia test. The test administrator will ask you to draw the face of a traditional (non-digital) clock, as well as to illustrate a specific time.
• Your ability to think abstractly may be tested by asking you to determine the relationships between objects—for instance, how trains and boats are similar to each other

So yeah… we have a president who is bragging about being able to draw a clock and tell you that trains and boats are both methods of transporting people. JFC we are so fucked.

Doesn’t sound like incompetence at all. Sounds like they’re being dick heads, as intended.

Trump famously accused Obama of being from Kenya. It’s probably the reason he was elected.

Same in the US.

Murphy’s Cat is my favorite

I don’t interpret “umm” that way, but I also think I tend to also add more vocal sounds like “hmm” and “ahh” to my comments. Tone is really hard on the Internet.

But on that morning in March, Guardado got a strange phone call at work. Some sort of public safety officer had dialed her office and wanted her to come outside to talk. In the parking lot, three men in plain clothes identified themselves as Department of Public Safety officers, Correa told The War Horse. As Shirly approached, they said her car had been involved in an accident. But when she got close, they grabbed her and handcuffed her, telling her they were ICE agents.

God damn this is scummy as hell.

Because Infowars’ assets are still tied up in the courts, Jones has been allowed to continue broadcasting his shows and hawking merchandise from Infowars’ Austin studio.

Well that’s infuriating. Also bonus points for the AP trying to stay neutral and then throwing in the word “hawking”.

Thanks, everything I had seen before was just a video of people running after hearing gunshots.

Can you please post a link to the video?

Going on OAN and calling Fox News right wing propaganda is peak irony.

What the fuck
