You come to the comments and see if anyone has a good summary of it yet.

They don’t.

That how I feel… but I only ever talk about it to a very small number of people. No one needs to know my shit.

“They are living, sentient beings, and if we have the ability to save them through a safe and humane solution, we have a responsibility to try.”

So I’m only going to offer to save half of them.

But seriously, I’m glad he’s able to help. I wish he could find a way to keep them where they are while also protecting the local environment because the story of these hippos is great and could be a nice tourism draw for Columbia, but even saving some from culling is a good thing.

The original, original version of the image showed US Soldiers up there… but I’m sure trump’s team decided that it might not be a good look to show US Soldiers in Heaven while trump is waging war.

I think I prefer ‘2 WEAK TRUMP’ over ‘TACO TRUMP’.

When my daughter was 7 she got really interested in graffiti and had tons of questions about it. She asked if there were any famous graffiti artists and I told her the names of some of the more prolific local artists, but of course told her all about Banksy.

I told her that she’s really lucky to live during a time when Banksy’s identity is unknown because at some point it will become known and the magic will be over.

That was 2 years ago, and I haven’t told her about this story yet because until Banksy confirms it, I don’t accept it. And because it makes me sad that the magic might be over.

We can unmask Banksy but just let the Panama Papers fade into obscurity.

We’ve effectively put sanctions on ourselves, amazing.

And that guy almost gets it… trump is successful at burning everyone else and walking away with the money. Which is exactly what he’s doing with the presidency.

He isn’t a successful businessman, he is a successful conman. Idiots can’t tell the difference.

Isn’t Nova Scotia poorly located to be an efficient spaceport since it won’t get nearly the same boost from the Earth’s rotation as it would if it launched closer to the equator? I imagine that a Caribbean or South American country would gladly take $200 million to lease them a spaceport location.

Time to pivot to Cuba!

I’m actually shocked that he hasn’t already declared victory and pulled all ships from the area.

Does Japan have any of that?

Not really. Their unions are actually designed to be part of the company rather than external for an entire industry. Since the delivery drivers appear to be contractors they aren’t considered eligible to join the union.

That’s what FOSS is all about… the steady march to perfection.

While commercial applications must enshittify themselves in order to survive, open source is mostly immune. It isn’t fast, but it is inevitable that an open source product will eclipse the commercial one.

And this is why iOS gets progressive web apps from me. It isn’t that I can’t afford $100, it’s more fuck Apple for demanding tribute from my work.

I passed a police car on the interstate a few weeks ago in Kentucky that had its windshield smashed out by snow/ice flying off the top of a semi. The amount of damage was impressive and scary.

My mom is what’s known as an ‘unreliable medical historian’… she very often hears something completely different from what her doctor tells her. I don’t want to say that she lies, because I think a ‘lie’ is a conscious choice that people make… but I also don’t think she’s incapable of understanding what her doctor tells her. I think she just has an idea of what the doctor is going to say, and when it is different she has a hard time letting go of her expectation and replacing it with reality.

I have no idea if this relates to your mother or situation in any way… but if I took everything my mom said her doctor told her then she is the most unique medical specimen ever. Her diabetes is unlike anyone else’s because she can still eat whatever she wants, when she wants… her doctor said that it’s not a problem. And her diabetes has changed from type 2 to type 1. As she was preparing for spine surgery she was convinced that she’d be back home, on her own in 2 weeks (it was closer to 9 months). She swears that the only surgeon that her primary care doctor wants her to see is 2 states over, 6 hours from any of her family (I’ve looked him up, he’s decent, but by no means a unique surgeon). And lots of other strange stuff over the years, including when I was a child.

It’s actually even better than that because I have free charging at work, so I often get home with 2/3rds of my battery capacity left.

Shit… and here I’ve just been blaming tariffs and inflation for my money disappearing!

Damn those manufacturers.

I got a Chevy Volt last year and I went from spending $350 per month on gas to spending around $20 per month (up to almost $30 when it was so cold last month).

I’m just sad that the bill isn’t written specifically to be able to block trump’s pardons.

“The violent left!”
