Love how there's apparently a team of writers who all have the keys to Trump's social media & freely post there hundreds of times daily with no rhyme or reason...from Cheung to Miller to that weird intern who sweats a lot. And they ALL sound as unhinged & lame-brained as Dear Leader.

The Peter Principle never fails to explain upper management

Juries, and by extension the concept of jury nullification, are the required openness that the laws of incompleteness require.

No formal system, of which the justice system is an example, is both complete and consistent. The jury is the outside perspective required by physics.

The future better include 3 consecutive terms by Democratic presidents. Even if a one term president tries his best to undo Trump's damage, if a Republican follows, all that work will be undone. US politics no longer advances, it just oscillates between 4-yr polarities. Have to break that cycle.

SACD! That's a hill I'll die on. Better sounding than CD (& vinyl). Should have become the standard consumer medium for audio, just as BluRay did for video post DVD. But bad timing, bad marketing, bad pricing, & (ironically) popularity of the worst audio medium ever (mp3) killed SACD, the best ever

Lemme 'splain sonething to you about Donald J. Trump:

He learned from Roy Cohn: you are NEVER wrong; you NEVER make mistakes or give up; you NEVER accept defeat; you lie as needed and if you are then confronted with a tsunami of Reality, you. do. not. budge.

He's not finished with Tish.

Hypocrisy is the Republican Superpower. That brazen ability, unavailable to those of conscience or integrity, to say or do something entirely contradicted by objective facts or their own previous pronouncements. To say or do anything for immediate, short term, political gain.

Every new technology contains a shit seed. All it takes is a smart capitalist with a green thumb to make it grow.

Hastening a new Dark Age... brought to you by AI

Remember when engineers built things to make life better? I frequently pause to marvel at the tech of AC electric power...from generators to distribution grid to my home wiring. Now a majority of "engineers" work on crap like financialization, gamification, monetization, etc, etc

Am I correct in that this is just legalized gambling on random shit?

And their pitch to the rich people is “if world events don’t work out for you, you can try to gamble on the opposite outcome on our platform”

Do I have that right?

Wtf is wrong rich people..?

Classic case of someone who's used stimulant drugs to stay alert for decades & has to stop for medical reasons. No coincidence that nod became the new norm for Trump right after his big medical exam. Docs ordered him to lay off the stims if he doesn't want to have another stroke.

Also in red states: Any television in a common space, like a waiting room -- for doctor, auto repair, whatever -- is tuned to Fox News. And there's rarely an option to change channels.

DJT, Psycho In Chief. What do you expect from a rich entitled narcissist coddled by his racist dad & schooled in business by a mafia lawyer?

Yes, we need to take light & noise pollution as seriously as any other environmental pollution. I'm sure you've also read about bird communication screwed up by noise. Electric cars will help on that score. But, meanwhile, huge data centers emit incredible noise pollution. One step forward, 2 back

LED lightbulbs everywhere. We finally got to a point where minimally light-polluting sodium vapor lamps were the norm for exterior lighting...then "progress" delivered ultra-bright LEDs + the message that brighter is better, safer, more economical. So much for dark skies!

Trump won't stop abusing reporters & "winning" until the press corps becomes a united front whenever he pulls this shit. Imagine if, after this incident, every reporter in the room continued asking the same question, relentlessly. (That only works if every reporter there is a real journalist.)
