It really is crazy that the president has engineered a situation where the US government pays his companies tons of money whenever he goes on vacation, and now he just goes on vacation endlessly www.howtoreadthisch.art/president-ho...

Everything this sub says about lipase is wrong. Lipase is a cost-cutting enzyme that made detergents worse.

So, El Fasher looks like one of the worst single event atrocities to happen this century so far, but the evidence has come in such a trickle it seems to only now be getting verified
At least 60,000 murdered in Sudanese city, which resembles ‘a slaughterhouse’

Not a lawyer: suppose people are held in contempt. What happens next? If they're thrown in prison, is there any reason why they can't be pardoned?
JUST IN: Judge Boasberg won’t back off his planned contempt hearings next week and says the crime-fraud exception would overcome potential privileges. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Thinking more on this: Human beings are just really bad at ascribing political acts to individuals, it's not a conservative thing. Even, like, Luigi Mangione fans tend to just treat him as a mold to pour their preferred ideology into.
I think another factor is that it simply does not really animate the right to blame events on individuals. They like blaming stuff on a faceless horde: none of them could name a single person involved in ISIS terror attacks, for instance
Thus, Charlie Kirk was shot by "antifa"

If anyone can figure out how to do highly customized but mass produced fursuits in the same way Toyota figured out highly customized but mass produced cars in the 70’s, there’s a lot of money to be made there

It's funny how the ideological split between Twitter and Bluesky has done nothing to stop the power users of both sites from being convinced that leadership is personally conspiring against them in particular.

It sucks that Fil-C got culture war'd because, ideally, all C(++) that could reasonably be compiled with it (also considering performance requirements) would be.
But I'm not sure if the prospects for that are very good right now.
It being "just" one guy also sucks. Would be very cool if Apple

Y’all, don’t be fucking dicks to staffers, it is neither nice nor particularly productive
You ever call a senator's office and ask the staffer who picks up what it's like to work for someone without a spine?

My guess: the elections just ended and some senators felt the risks outweighed the rewards of continuing. Wonder if we'll ever know, though.
