So Trump is holding Maduro in a New York City Federal prison instead of loyal Florida: why?
1) Attempt to provoke civil unrest
2) Attempt to provoke attack or bombing of NYC
3) Attempt to justify a pre-planned attack on NYC
THIS MAN IS INSANE. STOP HIM.

@repkimschrier.bsky.social impeach this traitor. And demand of every one of your colleagues that they do the same.
@congressmin.bsky.social I'll call the office tomorrow but here's one tag on social media asking you to file articles of impeachment in response to this illegal military activity

Yeah, big same.
Well that was a nice couple of hours of video games, now to take a look at the timeli- oh jesus christ

Yeah, big same.
Also, play Type Help
my scorching take is that deduction games (or whatever you want to call them) expose how the Games Industry is half a dozen audiences in a trench coat. no one is playing Type Help and Arc Raiders unless they’re a sicko like me but each game genre HAS an audience.

The other thing, I think, that is hard for some commenters to take is the idea that there is a hard-core audience and a casual audience for every subgenre, and you can't be THE HARDEST HARDCORE GUY in every single one of them.
In a sane media landscape, this is no big deal.

Specifically, my husband is looking for a hat. The hair on the top of his head is thinning & he gets burned. 😭 He wears a baseball hat for sports but feels like he needs one all summer & doesn’t wanna be baseball capping all the time, and out at nice restaurants etc
I have heard tell of a great hat shop in Seattle but immediately forgot about it bc hats and I don’t get along.
Can someone remind me of its name so I can recommend it to the beloved who needs a hat?

Can you solve a puzzle without knowing the rules?
For the first week of January, I'm publicly sharing the experimental beta of Scriddle - a daily puzzle where the rules are kept secret. I'd love to know how many guesses it took you to solve it.

Which prescription, you ask? The same one it has covered for the last three years. The one that keeps my brain working well enough to navigate the bullshit labyrinth of getting my prescription covered.
