New domain registered yesterday: realfood.gov. It currently resolves to an authentication page that displays the "National Design Studio" logo. The domain is attributed to "Federal - Executive," but the associated agency is "Non-Federal Agency"—the only .gov domain for which that is the case.

My family reduced our Target spending *enormously* when joining this boycott. Target’s risk now is that these new spending patterns calcify. If they restore their DEI programs, it’s not going to bring everybody back. That window closed months ago.

Curious. If someone with millions of followers tweeted “enjoy what may be your last Merry Christmas” at people in the Trump administration, what do we think the FBI would do?
Trump says the people who “thought Epstein was the greatest guy on earth, only to drop him like a dog when things got too HOT” are “sleazebags.”
Trump is criticizing people who…stopped hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein?

And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, lost his hand, lost his bride; Johnny has his hand, Johnny has his bride!
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, where the shadows lie, One Tim to rule them all, One Tim to find them, One Tim to bring them all, and in the darkness, bind them.
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, blew up the Death Star.

You know how Americans are surprised to learn that gun deaths are rare in most other countries, pedestrian-centered cities are normal, or everybody else uses metric? That, but discovering that the rest of the world moved to EVs.
It's funny how us parochial Americans generally seem to perceive that the EV revolution is stalling or reversing when in fact it's accelerating rapidly worldwide. 25% of cars sold globally in 2025 were EVs!
It's mostly just the US that's being left behind

I half-assed watching this a couple of years ago, and was so startled by the conclusion that I watched the series all over again, that time with my kids. It’s such gem. You can stream it on Hulu. Episodes are only 10 minutes.
