Oops. Not shaken, but stirred? 🤔
The warning for an M5.9 earthquake near Dayton, NV this morning was an incorrect alert issued by the USGS ShakeAlert program. None of the stations in the Nevada Seismological Laboratory network detected any large earthquakes in Nevada this morning.

Per @chicagotribune.com, the pajama-pants-guy is a former county prosecutor.

And he had some things to say. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/10/25/c...

Ah, locals mention the federal court order here, which also requires agents to wear some identification.

Also, quite an image in here: masked, fully-geared-out DHS agents getting screamed at in a residential neighborhood by some dude who is barefoot and in pajama pants.

Stopped clocks and all, but kudos to Senator Paul for standing up for Constitutional principle - something vanishingly few of his Republican colleagues are willing to do.
I'd never vote for Rand Paul, but on this issue he's absolutely correct. This is a clear and profound distinction. No declaration of war. No evidence of crime. What Trump & our military is doing is mass murder. It's no different than any mass-shooting of innocents – just with bigger (military) guns.
Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."

Leon Fleisher became one of the most renowned pianists of the 20th century. In 1964, he lost the use of his right hand due to a neurological condition; he then specialized in the left-hand piano repertoire before regaining the use of his right hand in later life.

Yeah, doesn't sound likely, does it? 😔
To avoid a wider conflagration in Iran, Israel, and beyond, the American President will have to temper his worst impulses for a “quick win” and negotiate. But Donald Trump is hardly a model of discernment.
Donald Trump and the Iran Crisis
It’s not easy to trust the President to make an optimal decision. For one thing, he is suspicious of nearly every source of information save his own instincts.

This 1000x. That a U.S. president might attack any country he feels like on a whim is a breathtaking step towards Hitlerism, yet the media is nearly silent about the implications. 😡
Congress has the sole power to declare war – full stop.

The idea that the US would potentially deploy a bunker buster bomb in Iran w/out Congressional approval not only flies in the face of our Constitution, it would also rope us into another forever war that Americans do not want.

Last selfie of Spring. Me on the porch last night at sundown. My beard really needs weeding, but from this angle it doesn't look too bad.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant.

This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

Nearly a century before Americans gave up "hard pants", the men had already gone "soft":
April 12, 1925: Men are becoming feminized by choosing to wear “soft hats, silk socks, pearl-colored spats, lilac pajamas and embroidered bathrobes,” warns NYU professor Charles Gray Shaw. Women are meanwhile gaining power by having “their own nickels and dollars hidden away.”

After Warner Bros. Discovery wrote it off, COYOTE VS. ACME will get a theatrical release.

Kudos to all who supported THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP in theaters. $10.5 million (so far) in worldwide box office helped make this happen.

hmm i wonder what happened to william mckinley. i’m sure he left office well-loved and respected by all americans
Trump: "Tariff is the most beautiful word in the dictionary. It‘ll make our country rich. You go back and look at the 1890s, 1880s mckinley and you take a look at tariffs. That was when we were at our proportionately the richest."

@airminded.org Here in New Jersey we're in the middle of a modern "scareship" wave, featuring mysterious "car-sized" drones in the skies almost every night for the last month: www.nj.com/news/2024/12...
More mystery drones spotted over N.J. Here’s what we know.
Residents in at least six New Jersey counties have reported seeing large numbers of drones hovering at night, including some that appear to be the size of cars.

I've followed l'affaire Gabbard for quite some time, but this is the most eloquent - and chilling - summation of it I've seen. More evidence, if more were needed, that Trump's nominees are charged with destroying the government functions they're appointed to oversee.
"Tulsi Gabbard’s longstanding association with a shadowy rightwing cult, her history of suspicious uses of campaign funds, her habitual conspiracism and advocacy for the interests of bloodthirsty dictators (including Syria’s Bashar al-Assad as well as Putin) all raise a multiplicity of red flags."
Tulsi Gabbard and Trump's scheme to gut the intel agencies
It's hard to envision a less suited intelligence chief. That’s a feature, not a bug.
