USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

Pet peeve in recent TV shows: our protagonist is running out of time, every second counts, and what do they do? Spend 5 minutes giving a soul searching speech. Gah! Avert the crisis FIRST, then give your speech. It really breaks the fourth wall if they’re not taking the crisis seriously.

The corruption is so blatant. They’re not even trying to hide it anymore.
Corruption so pungent, it wafts right off the page:
Lobbyists who do pardon deals “say their going rate is $1 million. Pardon-seekers have offered some lobbyists close to the president success fees of as much as $6 million if they can close the deal.”

Even some of the president’s closest advisers have been surprised by a number of the recent series of pardons.

This is a really good point that I had not run into before: these "creators" have no further insight into their alleged creation than the average audience member and that is why it cannot be called art (besides all the other obvious reasons).

This is what the ENTIRE GOP is trying to hide.
Again, Congress has been briefed on this. Congress knows this, has known this for some time. The entire GOP is covering this up. They know. They do not care about victims. They are accomplices after the fact and they all belong in prison next to Trump

“He raped me.”
“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”
“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”
Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

There really should be top-down prosecutions for this, but we’re not really a ‘demand consequences for administrative evil’ kind of country.

Every trans person--including every trans child--deserves the chance to be fully themselves. I'm so sick of seeing trans folks harmed repeatedly and unrelentingly, against all reason and scientific precedent. To my trans friends--I'm so sorry the world keeps trying to dim your light.

What a disgusting human being.
"[Elon probably] knew it would be horrifying to others. But he decided that it was a better approach to shut it down, fire everybody, shut them out, and then go rebuild."
A test of whether the U.S. can recover its moral health after all this is whether we hold Elon Musk, genocidaire, accountable.

This is horrible. Trump and his crew shut down USAID, which has led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, and they had no idea what they were doing or what would be the consequences. Completely immoral.

It is international law 101 that a military blockade is not just a violation of the UN Charter, but a crime of aggression.
Unless that blockade is in response to an 'armed attack.'
None of President's Trump's list of complaints come close to an armed attack.

Jumped in to try out the new season of Diablo 4, and remembered the biggest fun killer in that game: forced multiplayer.
Helltides are borderline unplayable because there’s always some level 1,000 player instakilling everything. Sure, I get tons of XP for nothing, but it’s not fun or thematic. 😡

This column on Vox is the biggest pile of steaming AI crap I've seen this year. Human's aren't running out of ideas. Instead, those with power and money don't want to listen to ideas that threaten their power and money.
Ideas are plentiful. Putting those ideas into action is the hard part.

We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?

Israel has killed 249 journalists in the last 2 years.
That's more than were killed in WWII & the Vietnam War put together.
A Vermonter, Dylan Collins, was wounded in one of these attacks, which killed another reporter. This war against journalists must be investigated & ended.
