You occasional reminder that here, unlike the Bad Place, the ethos calls for instantly blocking trolls, never engaging, arguing, or dunking. If it makes you feel any better, you can shout THIS! IS! BLUEEESKYYYY! like Gerard Butler in a loincloth while doing it.

Wow great time watching motorcycle races at #flatoutfriday. The best class, next to "vintage", was "brakeless". Exactly what it sounds like. One races in this class was 84 years old. Stud.
Also, 32 years together. Not so bad!

DOGE as Stasi.
Some federal employees say they found a program downloaded to their govt computers that could be used to sift through team chats to search for key words. Treasury computers reportedly included. Some think Elon Musk's team is looking for signs of progressive thinking or disloyalty to Trump.
