The only issue I get with PipePipe is that when I switch from LTE to WiFi the stream cuts off and won’t restart due to an error. I can play other stuff through the app, just not what I was listening to after the network change.

The man charged with planting two pipe bombs near the Democratic and Republican party headquarters on the eve of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol told the FBI he believed conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, according to two people familiar with the matter.

So… Not an anarchist like the cops initially reported, but rather a stupid and violent right-wing “lone wolf.” What prize do I win for correctly predicting this? I must be able to see the future to know that the cops were bullshitting, huh?

Who wants to bet that this is just another right-wing nutjob and not an “anarchist” at all?

I might believe the cops if they weren’t constantly caught lying to further their right-wing projects.

The fog of hangover?

I know I can’t tell if someone is a good or bad person just from looking at a photo.

But this is very good evidence of the contrary.

He’s going to look so shocked if he gets fired. I guarantee it.

Then do something, assholes.

Or keep acting like cowards who are afraid of what Grabby Grandpa’s gonna call you, that seems more likely.

Woody Guthrie wrote a song, Lindbergh, about America’s Nazi collaborators. Notably, he calls out America First as being a fascist movement in disguise.

And I’m gonna tell you workers, 'fore you cash in your checks
They say "America First, " but they mean “America Next!”

This is the biggest takeaway: billionaires live in a society apart. They know their money will insulate them from consequences, and so do their sycophants.

The tastes of the duke were peculiar. He had a fine eye for colors and effects. He disregarded the decora of mere fashion. His plans were bold and fiery, and his conceptions glowed with barbaric lustre. There are some who would have thought him mad. His followers felt that he was not. It was necessary to hear and see and touch him to be sure that he was not.

This video is the first thing I remember her from. I don’t think she’s fundamentally different now.

Get out into nature. Take frequent walks.

Be social, even if you don’t want to in the moment.

Have a goal to work towards that doesn’t have anything to do with employment (learn to draw, or play piano, or cook).

Be patient with yourself and others. It’s rough out there.

I really hate when people call them “skeptics.”

Skepticism is a questioning attitude or doubt toward knowledge claims that are seen as mere belief or dogma.

They’re the dogmatic ones; there are multiple converging lines of evidence showing that man-made climate change is a real danger; to deny that is not skeptical, it’s delusional. It’s motivated reasoning. It’s believing a lie because the billionaire propaganda machine told you to believe it.

It used to be that they’d put baseball games on broadcast TV.

Now you basically need a subscription to watch the team in my area. It’s like they don’t want anyone to see the games.

Maybe I don’t understand what you mean, but it seems pretty reliable to me. In what way do you envision it failing? Lasers or mocap would seem to make it less reliable due to the required processing.

And hey, Mike Johnson is keeping the Epstein investigation files sealed during this shutdown. So chin up little MAGA, your pedo president is being protected by you getting stranded in the Des Moines airport.

I sized her up when she covered for Trump for his first impeachment.

She’s a lying, manipulative, amoral climber who will do anything to advance her profile.

Her helping try to overthrow the government on Jan 6 showed that I had her figured right.

She’s one of the worst vipers in the whole nest.

You’re right, I should double down.

I’ll bet $500 that she used the phrase “don’t you know who I am?!”

The only reason he would stop a Trump administration policy is that the owner class is upset. They clearly are.
