It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.
Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

I liked working as a union driver for UPS. Reasonable hours, great pay, benefits, and healthy camaraderie with everyone from the site manager to the security guard. Clear and clearly communicated expectations plus the ability to monitor your own performance was key and applies to any workplace.
Someone who has had horrible jobs in five industries asks if any jobs *aren't* horrible (the third Q in my advice column this week).
What do you think? What kinds of workplaces have a reputation for being relatively humane?

Despite my penchant for hobbies involving various ways to die, I can't think of a single time I was actually close enough to death.
Close calls on being kidnapped, held underwater by too much surf, falling from excessive height, and things exploding but never what I would consider near death.

I called out dumb bitch hypocrisy on "ceremonial grade" matcha being a meaningless marketing term made up by American importers to sell marked-up garbage.
What’s the funniest reason someone got mad at you on Bluesky this year?

A 25 minute delay on SB US101 just south of Candlestick Point State Recreation Area for an SUV and a pickup truck that did not appear to have been in a collision but required 10 CHP unit response, no fire/paramedic. Two hours after the fact it has still not had any incident filed by CHP. WTF

You can ship slop faster than you can maintain it. I haven't seen a single vibe-coded startup survive long enough to reach growth scale.
Can't wait for the loosened up, non-perfect, but quickly shipped AI-enhanced updates to hit my banking and insurance services next year.
Im sure there will be no issues there at all.

All the small thoughtful touches in this car make it not terrible. If only they had put it on a platform that works reliably and doesn't break down in innumerable small ways constantly. This car has 8k miles and leaks oil.

Unlike many of Flock’s cameras, Flock’s Condor cameras track people, not vehicles.
The exposure highlights the fact that Flock is not just surveilling cars—it is surveilling people, and in some cases it is doing so in an insecure way.

Forced to endure AI holiday music at brunch when it occurred to me, church primes people for being misled by AI content. Accept authoritarianism, believe without questioning, and listen to the world's blandest insipid music.

Left the house at 3am there are no other cars on the roads, at the first major intersection on the way to the highway the only cars at the intersection were 4 Waymos traveling in different directions. 5 cars. 1 human. Surreal.
