Amanda Marcotte on #guns, violence against women, & #MelGibson: "Recently, Vice President JD Vance complained, "our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge." He pretended that it's about telling men they can't "tell a joke," when the real problem is men punching women in the face and sexually assaulting them in department store dressing rooms."

Remembering the last time we invaded Panama. It was ‘89. I was in college, didn’t have many problems, was in relatively decent shape, was having fun, watched a lot of grainy night-vision videos of the invasion on TV, War on Drugs seemed to be going swell, sort of banal breezy imperialism.

Trump sandwich served up at Canadian cafe comes with 'small pickle and baloney'

I know it is bad lighting, but bad lighting just highlights what is already there. Maybe God is going to keep showing Emo the benefits of gender affirming care until the irony starts to sink in.
I'm sort of agnostic, but never doubt when irony is trying to show you a thing

China Cools on Musk: ‘Two Cars for the Price of One Tesla’
Elon Musk, the company’s chief executive, is fast losing out to Chinese electric carmakers in Tesla’s second-most-important market.Alexandra Stevenson (The New York Times)
I am watching news in Chinese with my dad and it occurs to me that all this talk about the USA annexing Canada is really hilariously pathetic considering the US has already been annexed by Russia.
The Chinese are not kind on their reporting at all. They literally don't care about the tariffs. Steel? The US buys barely 1% of their steel.
Cars? They set themselves up to be the next world superpower and they are stepping up now.
The TSLA brand destruction continues.
Except for a slight bump up right after the election, independent analysts have had a very "bearish" opinion of #Tesla stock for over a year. If the company board doesn't act, hard to see how the brand doesn't continue to spiral down, though apparently they sold one Cybertruck in Washington DC yesterday.

REPORTER: What is your vision for the potential annexation of Greenland?
It looks like I’ll be spending quite a bit of time correcting the misleading claims of Chris Wright, the new U.S. Energy Secretary.
Calling himself a "climate realist," Wright acknowledged human-induced global warming yet framed it as a necessary trade-off.
Recently at CERAWeek the world's leading energy conference, he promised what he described as a complete reversal, or "180-degree pivot," of U.S. climate and energy policies. (audio & text)

Overheard the dumbest thing in which the reporter was shocked that many companies still offer work from home. And it's like, you know those companies, just by offering the thing workers really want, can pay people less and get better talent than ever, just by offering it right? With no real downside to productivity?
As soon as the job market gets competitive again, companies will bring it back to steal talent.
Hey #CultOfRamenCatholicism - our official church building will have an attached No-Kill Cat Shelter & every day we will choose a different cat to worship as a little-g god.
My question is: how can we make this accessible for people with severe cat allergies?

United States exceptionalism has always been a false myth, but now we're going out of our way to provide evidence and prove it.
The world is laughing and crying.
I spent last week in Ojai at a work event and a big theme was the existential feeling of practicing craft in the face of AI vibe coding and generative codebases and how quality suffers.
I wrote just a little bit about it.

I cound understand Fox News calling Social Security an "entitlement program". It's wrong but expected because they're a propaganda outlet.
Salon calling Social Security an "entitlement program" is acting as a mouthpiece for the regime. Something they presumably don't intend to be doing, but their headline writer can't figure that out..?
So much winning!
