just FYI, the Wordle Bot "My Picks" is not playing as if a computer were starting at the beginning. those picks are simply which possible words would've eliminated the most remaining possibilities at each turn based on the info you have. it's not a measure of the most efficient way to play the game

yeah people somehow think it's a good thing to leave half a million Americans without paychecks over Christmas. sometimes it's not about winning or losing or leverage. there's $100B in hurricane relief, another $10B to farmers. it doesn't concede the debt limit. it's good

I mean not really. Democrats let an unelected billionaire unilaterally blow apart bipartisan legislation and rewarded him by agreeing to cut tons of programs—including money for cancer research for children—at the last minute to save the GOP from a mess they created.
This is stupid and feckless.

Musk lost because he wanted a govt shutdown. Trump lost because he wanted to raise the debt ceiling to cut taxes for his donors. GOP in Congress lost because they’re a hot mess. Dems held strong & we didn’t close down the government. Sausage making is prettier.
Happy holidays!

it is both sad & hilarious that opposing Trump is so toxic for the right they have to go along with whatever he says to stay in Congress (this is the definition of fascism, but that's another story). when what he says happens to be what Dems want... well conservatives just have to deal with it

Trump is still quite proud of Operation Warp Speed. he will be more pro-vaccine than people think, even with RFK Jr

the comments were all people like "yeah man, totally agree. great advice. love following this page!" the few people that were like "stick to weather", which is something they absolutely would've said to anyone else (e.g., "stick to sports"), were heckled and laughed at

there's a weather enthusiast facebook page that focuses on southeast Louisiana where I'm from and he has gone full nutjob on the drones. he posted a long rant yesterday that included:
-the current administration is planning a hostile takeover
-9/11 was an inside job
-doomsday prepping
