There was a long long time when many many powerful people refused to stand up to Joe McCarthy. And then McCarthy got weak, and people found their spines.
People finding their spines is always good news, not least because it's a sign of Trump's weakness.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

this is not a judgement, but i think the things that most dates this era in film and TV will be lip fillers. Kinda like how the feathery hair of the 80s dates that era, or the very thin eyebrows of the 90s

Tesla scales back Robotaxi fleet goal in Austin
The Tesla Robotaxi fleet in Austin has only about 30 Model Ys in use. When we compare 60 vehicles to the 500 cars promised just weeks ago, the difference is huge. Tesla will miss its year-end goal by almost 90%.
