This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.
Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

I just lost the NFL Playoff predictions pool on a tiebreaker (had to go to predicting the final score in the Super Bowl, closest prediction wins) to Pat Henry, of all people.
The last time I lost the pool on a tie breaker was the 28-3 game. #StillTooSoon

Guys, (and yes, I'm singling out straight white men) you don't have to care about any particular marginalized group or what they're fighting for. It doesn't matter. Trans? Black? Women? It makes zero difference. Your aim should be "Treat other people with respect and basic decency" That's it.

It's an automatic win if your diss track not only wins a Grammy, but you perform it live at halftime of the Super Bowl?
Bonus points for the crowd singing "Tryna strike a chord but it's probably A Minor"
Drake, you need an undertaker cause you just got murdered in front of a billion people.

Raxx is hysterical. A popular Path of Exile Streamer duplicates Elon Musk's POE2 build and runs mid-tier map content with predictable results.

So I'm going to say what it seems like people are thinking but are too scared to say just yet.
The Democrats are either:
Too ineffective to mount a meaningful resistance to Trump.
or
Willing accomplices to the GOP (Trump).
You're on your own, people. Don't count on Washington for anything.

Just had a lovely conversation with a friend of mine at a government agency that I won't name for REASONS.
Forget what you've heard about Pumpkin Palpatine running things. The truth is so much worse.
Everybody that is even close to retirement is pulling the ripcord.

Anyone feel like helping a guy get nginx and apache unscrewed so that it can run a python app without crashing the whole damn server?

Update: Bluesky Converter Project
I've ported things over to the web host, now I just have to reconfigure apache to serve up python apps. Soon as that's done, grimthorn.info is live.
There's a description of the app up there now.
