The full article is well worth reading. It's good to find a lucid, logical deconstruction of why, precisely, this will be a complete disaster.
When the GOP sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are convicted felons.

Is there a way to read all of Trump's Truth Social posts without actually visiting the site? That is, is there an archive or a mirror somewhere? I don't want to give him the traffic.
I once had a class where, day one, the professor said something like, "If you don't want to buy the book, that's fine with me. I can't tell you where to find a copy, but maybe one of your classmates can." Someone raised their hand and started rattling off a few useful websites.

I always assumed that they were impossible to win, and that the coins you saw on the ledges were placed there by the employees.
I'm actually a bit shocked that the revenue is that high.
This reminds me of the Bob's Burgers episode where they mention giving Gene a goldfish to see if he was responsible enough to have a dog.
Gene's conclusion: "I was not."

Further justifying my commitment to avoiding Prime at all costs.
Life is just one long, hard kick in the urethra, and sometimes when you get home from a long day of getting kicked in the urethra, you just want to watch a show about good, likable people who love each other, where, you know, no matter what happens, at the end of 30 minutes, everything's gonna turn out okay.
I'd like to believe it, but based on recent evidence, the next decade is going to be defined by how incredibly apathetic the general public continues to be about matters that actually affect our lives.

A finance worker at a multinational firm was tricked into paying out $25 million to fraudsters using deepfake technology to pose as the company’s chief financial officer in a video conference call, according to Hong Kong police.
Google Search will no longer make site backups while crawling the web.
I usually avoid them because of the mark-up, but yesterday I was in the mood for a soda and didn't feel like going into a store and interacting with the cashier, so I bought one out of a vending machine. I enjoyed it. What about you? When was the last time you used a vending machine, and what did you buy?
Maybe I have sensitive gums or something like that, but eating the cereal right after I add the milk makes my mouth hurt.
The far right is mad at Mike Johnson for suggesting that his adopted black son was treated differently than his biological white son.
"We are afraid of the uncharted territory that we have now entered.”
Of course it’s all about Trump.
