Wait is someone honestly blaming that?

Holy crap. This is terrible.

The article states it's "not related to the current U.S. government shutdown". But of course it is: they are both connected by the GOP destroying everything good about this country from the top down and the bottom up.

Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT shine lasers into manned aircraft.

Faine Greenwood @faineg.bsky.social · 2d

someone on the Internet who really wants to convince you to shine lasers at manned aircraft as a protest tactic “because they did it in Chile in 2019” is either:

1. a fascist fed, or,

2. so terminally stupid that they have become functionally indistinguishable from one

This is horrible. It appears as though the tidal gage at Kipnuk has set a record (records go back to at least 2000) and the gage on the Kuskokwim River at Bethel is at the highest level it's been this century.

Not sure where the "available funds" for this are going to come from... I guess we will see if it happens.

Fun bonus - the Coast Guard is NOT included (not under DOD) and even if the rest of the military does get paid Wednesday, the CG won't.

Trump directs Pentagon to use 'available funds' to pay military during shutdown

President Trump's announcement comes days before active duty members would have missed their first full paycheck as the shutdown of the federal government continues.

We have come home from various other trips to a bookcase door (technically I asked for this one,) new lights in the laundry room, replaced door handles, an adjusted garage door, wheels on the gate to the fence, an air conditioner in my office…and I’m missing like a half a dozen other things

Whenever you hear a tech CEO spinning out *absolute fucking nonsense* using star trek language, some of what you're hearing is a screeching positive feedback loop between him and the crackpots he's spending all of his time listening to.

Some of whom he literally created.

there’s this weird idea a lot of people seem to have about how all of us writers and artists must secretly want to use AI and are merely resisting temptation for ethical reasons, and like, no, it’s not hard for me to resist drinking the bowl of Piss With Glass In It actually

Who could have seen this coming except every single online security expert and privacy expert on the whole planet.

I really wish legislators would listen to people who know what the hell they're talking about.
