The nest thermostat is an asshole.
Nearly every day I need to set it back to the same temperature. I've edited the schedule, turned off every smart feature.
It thinks it knows better than me, and slowly changes it to someone else's idea of the ideal temperature.
Robots are dicks.

Do yourself a favor and go watch/re-watch Season 1 Episode 3 of The Newsroom (HBO). See if Jane Fonda's line "I have business in front of this congress" hits different this time around.
Also, unrelated, Warner Brothers may be up for sale.

I'm profoundly grateful to BlueSky users who supported me and called for my reinstatement. When I got suspended, I was not told why the first two times I inquired, or that it was for 72 hours. You forced BlueSky to respond and to issue a correction for one of the lies they told about me. Thank you.

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.
Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.
The American people need more from their leaders.

I suspect this is purely 2026 and 2028 mischief permission granting.
But…those are state charges. They were never federally charged. Nor could they be even if we win in 2028 because the statute of limitations will have expired. But okay.
BREAKING:
Trump has just issued pardons to dozens of conservatives who tried to overturn the 2020 election results, including: Mark Meadows, Kenneth Chesebro, Jeffrey Clark, Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, John Eastman, Boris Epshteyn, and more — per pardon attorney Ed Martin.

Meta earns $3.5 billion every six months from showing Faceboon and Instagram users 15 billion “higher legal risk” scam ad impressions a day, internal documents state.

We must stay focused. We’re in this for the long haul. We are finding ways not just to block them, but build something better.
