I absolutely will not buy your car if it doesn’t integrate Apple CarPlay. Period. You will NOT do better on the interface. I’ve seen you try. And you will NOT fully integrate all that CarPlay does.

Good luck to you.

Boy… if THAT’s not a terribly mixed blessing:
Ran into @nashworld.bsky.social in the parking lot of a Menards today and fondly remembered how he coaxed me onto Twitter and social media back in 2008.

So, you all have him to thank for that.

In case you may be wondering something like: "So... is this actually a coup?"

Yeah. It's a coup.

Most congressional democrats have obviously never been hit in the mouth by a bully in grade school and had to figure out a response on their own as a nine year old… rather than fold like a hurt puppy.

I have all the pretty words too. No one is listening right now. Be bold. Lead.

Will you all stop with the metaphorical “I won’t ’bend the knee.’” Crap.

Use real words if you want to talk to real Americans. Will you ever learn?

You won’t do what? What is it you are saying you will not do. No more fluffy language.

The tech bros are already actually changing the “Gulf of Mexico” on maps?

Man, I’m changing the name of this town to Nashville. It’s a better name. I like it.

Don’t reply with “we’ve already got a ‘Nashville.’” Missouri also already has a Versailles.

Except they call it “Verr-sails.”

Ugh.

We will no longer lead in scientific discovery… beyond what a corporation will pay for to satisfy their near and short term interests.

I don’t think you realize what a cataclysmic shift this is for the United States.

A real crisis.

The war on science has begun...

Imagine wanting to cripple one of the most technologically-advanced nations for the sole purpose of creating a post-truth society.

There is HUGE potential for a nationwide brain drain.

I’d be curious to know the percentage of folks that thought this way when this was written vs. today…….

It seems that many more now see it as a profit center or a threat.
