Democrats are generally better informed. They know Donald Trump is more like Mussolini, without the military service.

The latest global bleaching event - researchers estimate >84% of the planet's coral ecosystems have been affected since Jan 2023 - has made it clear the crisis is now.

It's weird that the guy who made the spyware app that Mike Johnson uses to spy on his son's porn-watching, and vice versa, was found to have a stash of CSAM and that just blipped right out of the news.

Mike Johnson is a Nazi pedophile himself. Birds of a feather, flock together. Johnson likely will only swear her in if she promises not to join the effort to force the release of the Epstein files.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva announces her election results will be OFFICIALLY certified tomorrow, destroying Mike Johnson’s last excuse to delay her swearing in.

“Mike Johnson needs to do his job so I can do mine.”

No more lies.
No more delays.
Swear her in!

Kinda' sucks after all these years SFGate still don't know who attend dreamforce. Overwhelmingly non-techies. Sales, Sales Ops and Marketing folks from flyover country, visiting SF on expense account. They really doll up for the evening events.

I love the inflatable costumes from a purely strategic standpoint because it quite effectively takes the wind out of the sails of "war-torn portland" "antifa supersoldier" type rhetoric. it happened organically and dare I say, memetically, but it works

My favorite memory of Jimmy Kimmel is from a roast when somebody described seeing him at the beach in a purple Speedo: it's like watching a squirrel trying to escape from a Crown Royal bag.

At least in the Bay Area with high adoption of EV and PHEV, parents don’t randomly chat up other parents anymore while waiting for kids activities to finish. Far easier to just be cozy in the car.
