About 1/3 of the way done sculpting phase 1 of this year's Christmas ornament. Some delicate sections, so I'm baking this part of it separately and then I'll tack on the other parts.

I've never done polymer clay in sections before. Seems straightforward.

Hegseth is definitely going to use the NORAD Santa Tracker this year to shoot down Santa Claus.

Watching the Eagles game on Amazon Prime, and the announcer does a promo for American Express, right after a regular commercial for Discover, and in the AmEx promo the announcer says to shop local on Small Business Saturday.

I wonder if some Amazon exec choked on their drink when they heard that.

I think I might just slather ketchup all over my turkey, throw it in the oven, and be done with it.

Trying to think of a name for the Caspian Explorer I'll inevitably buy in #EliteDangerous

I was leaning towards "Light's Journey" but then I was thinking about the obvious influences on the ship's design.

If the "light" is starlight, then "Light's Journey" is essentially "Star's Trek". 🫤

I also will wade into the pie discourse.

A cursory one-second glance at the Bluesky pie chatter has revealed to me a shocking erasure of Chocolate Pie.

This cannot stand and I am building a barricade over here for the revolution.
Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

So...is the "Genesis Mission" just going to be an effort to siphon public funds to billionaires and tech bros? And/or a desperate gasp to avoid a bubble bursting (again to the benefit of billionaires and tech bros)?

I am going to finish my work day, then spend all weekend playing with polymer clay and trying desperately not to think about how weird today was.

Pam Bondi right now, in that press conference trying to come up with an explanation of why she suddenly decided to have DOJ open a new Epstein investigation:

Let me tell you about the other Epstein files the Trump administration is STILL HIDING — records that aren’t affected by the bill Congress passed today.

SCOTUS being SCOTUS you assume they'll just stay this with an unsigned order and let the maps stand for 2026, but Texas really fucked this up

they did not do a partisan gerrymander, as they could easily have gotten away with - they explicitly did a *racial* gerrymander in a hamfisted, blatant way
Here is the federal district court's 2–1 ruling, authored by a very conservative Trump appointee, striking down Texas' new Republican gerrymander on the grounds that it unlawfully discriminates against racial minorities. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

So, if Texas appeals (they will) and SCOTUS upholds the ruling (who knows), then Texas could be in the (objectively hilarious) position of not only _not_ getting the 5 extra seats they wanted, but also handing 5 extra seats to the Democrats via California.

We'll have to wait and see.

I think the core point is that trump had a honeymoon in which capital/media/political opposition all decided he was the one true voice of america. he did a lot of horrible things with that (including murdering 100s of thousands), but didn't consolidate power...

I love going to a new website for the first time, especially when there's a specific search result I want to look at, and then I have to go through The Ritual before I'm allowed to look at content:
