'So you see, based on an incorrect identification of someone's accent, we beat up and detained an American citizen.'
Now I'm wondering what the 'media lie' was, when the 'exculpatory' statement is 'we shit the bed and arrested a citizen.'

In which DHS says a U.S. citizen can be detained for speaking in Mexican accented Spanish. How many people in the US would be subject to being detained on this basis?

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

When these guys talk about the country taking a 'wrong turn' they mean in the 1860s, not the 1960s.
one thing that doesn’t get enough coverage or comment with regards to this administration is it how much it hates the actually existing united states

I refuse to surrender classical antiquity or Times New Roman font to the fascists.
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move

Happy birthday to the Soviet linguist Yuri Knorozov who casually deciphered the Mayan script in 1952 and got pissed when editors removed his cat as co-author on papers or cropped her out of his author headshot (the only picture of himself he even liked)

For reasons too complex to explain here, I wrote an Apple II program designed for Early Modern Age Catholics to determine if they're allowed to have sex with their wife, or if it'd be a sin.
Here's the video of it running.

So I went to the war crimes store to get my exploding weapon, full of *lethally* sharp cheddar cheese and devastating incendiary jalapenos.
Only in America can a person walk the streets with such a deadly weapon.
