If there's anyone who understands the power of symbols, it's the Catholic Church. I mean, whatever you might think of their beliefs, they take certain symbols VERY seriously.

Sir, it’s not just the words. There was a full Eucharistic Procession, with monstrance.

This is, for those who believe in Catholic theology, the physical presence of Christ appearing on the door of the US Government and being denied as that agency ran away from Christ.

Outside of the Broadview ICE facility, a state trooper tells the delegation attempting to have communion with detainees that ICE has denied their request.

Can't wait to see the duty of care claims that come out of this.

Putting the grift and corruption aside, how do you underwrite a D&O policy for a 19 year old with no experience being on the board of a multi-billion dollar company?

I wish I could get $50m for choking.

Anyway hopefully we get a better coach next time.

Penn State has fired James Franklin. $50M buyout. So at least there is that.

Spicy. Trying to play word games with a judge is a risky gambit

I'm not Catholic and I'm not even sure there is a God, but man this language is powerful. Calling out evil like this is good.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

I also own every console on the market. But PC gaming is still superior for certain types of games.

You can be jealous now.

Andrew Kinsey @andrewkinsey.bsky.social · 1d

Oh their anticheat is almost certainly a rootkit that makes the entire PC less secure.

Andrew Kinsey @andrewkinsey.bsky.social · 1d

Anyway thankfully I know what I'm doing. So we're all good. But I'm still annoyed.

Making Secure Boot mandatory is so stupid. How many kids are pulling their hair out because they can't figure this stuff out?

I hope fleas infest your pubes for life.

Thanks, Battlefield 6, for using such shit anti cheat that I had to fucking reformat my son's hard drive and then make multiple BIOS settings changes just so he could play a game.

Fuck you and every single person involved in that decision. You're a cancer on the gaming industry.

I had to stop watching because I was laughing too much when I got to the "I expected it to have the integrity of the President" part. I genuinely cannot tell if it's satire or not because it's so on the nose.

It’s considered impolite to use language like this, but “evil” is the best word for what these folks are doing. It’s bad enough to screw over workers to attack political enemies. But here, doing so will literally kill people and lead to avoidable disease.

I hope Roberts reads this and realizes his legacy will be torching the Court's legitimacy. I hope this haunts his dreams for the rest of his life.

More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

Kyle Cheney is a congenital liar and a propagandist and Anna is a nobody. Multiple attorneys who have examined this case describe it as air tight. By the way, Cheney is also a leaping bounding, screaming asshole.

No, Joe, you don't understand. I mean, haven't you heard teachers say "Ok, class, we're now going to move to the next chapter and refresh your recollection on the quadratic formula, a thing you've never heard of before"?

As someone that isn't sober, but has sober friends and family, this is appalling. Not cool, not funny, and borderline unforgivable.

Sometimes! An org chart or step chart (for a transaction) is actually sometimes a great addition to a brief. And I'm not above sticking one in.

Nobody has ever been more surprised than a husband hearing about his wife's plans for the second time.
