Ares instead of Tron? NiN instead of DP? No Sam & Quora? I was all set to write off #TronAres, but holy crap was I wrong. Leto was great (shut up, he was), as was Lee, the soundtrack rocked, great T and TL references--see this on a big screen (and with big speakers)

In an effort to post something positive, I give you my inaugural miter saw cut. I just need to master this and a router and I'll be ready to build custom media storage furniture--how hard can it be? :D

Absolutely bonkers finale for #DoctorWho Season 2. Gutted at who we say good-bye to, but unexpectedly jazzed at who we're welcoming back. "Oh, hello!" indeed! Very curious to see where RTD--the madman with a script--takes us next!

Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.

Good day to remember that DOGE has already lost the US government at least half a trillion dollars this year alone. And likely more.

mRNA is at the forefront of cancer research, as well as vaccines
National Institutes of Health officials have now told scientists to remove all references to mRNA vaccines from their grant applications.
This means that all research in the field will be stopped and abandoned.

JD Vance claimed on X that “Slava Ukraini” protesters followed him & shouted at his daughter.
Guess he didn’t realize it was caught on camera. No one yelled at his kid, and they didn’t follow them.
Vance & Musk need to quit using children as shields. The public isn’t backing down—we want answers.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.
He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

When the president, on every issue, says that he will decide what he is allowed to do under the Constitution and nobody else, every appointee and member of his party obeys because they are either corrupt or afraid of him, and SCOTUS has given him immunity, you have an autocracy.
