With Disney+ and Hulu cancelled, my sub is till 10/12. That's long enough to catch the last episode of #AlienEarth. It'll be a nice break from watching the collapse of the free world.

Strange days.
Ted Cruz calling out Trump admin sledding down a slippery slope and PBS citing Cato Institute for First Amendment opinions.

WandaVision got away with "they'll never know what you sacrificed for them" bs. DS:MoM at least sorta rectified that. Anyway, totally could seem them gloss over his history and be like 'second chances' and also gloss over the age thing because he sounds/looks mid-20's

PD says that other than the truck driver having a non-life threatening injury, everyone else is okay.

A Reddit user posted a brief video of firefighters working on the trailer. #Phoenix

semi-truck trailer with the back open. 3 firefighters stand outside spraying water into the trailer with a hose. The interior of the trailer appears scorched. Smoke and steam pour of of the doors.

Apparently the light rail collided with a diesel truck in Phoenix. Multiple explosions. My buddy helped evacuate the rear car he was on.

Light rail train with a fire near the front. Located near 18th Street and Washington

Trump says people should get revenge at the voter box (ballot box) but it's rigged... so I guess they'll need to get revenge some other way.
This Fox & Friends interview today was mostly just Trump justifying violence from the right.

Brian Kilmeade: So, is the message to the right — the people who are going to want revenge — not to have revenge? Charlie Kirk would not want revenge?
Donald Trump: He’d want revenge at the voter box.
Lawrence Jones: Ballot box.
Kilmeade: That’s where to go.
Trump: But unfortunately, we don’t have so many ballot boxes because they have mail in voting which is totally rigged.

Trump probably believes Patrick Crusius was just trying to stop those 45 people from shoplifting from the El Paso Walmart.

Ainsley Earhardt: …we have radicals on the right as well… How do we fix this country? How do we come back together?
Donald Trump: Well, I'll tell you something that's gonna get me in trouble, but I couldn't care less. The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don't want to see crime. They don’t want to see crime. They’re saying we do want these people coming in. We don’t want you burning our shopping centers. We don’t want you shooting our people in the middle of the street. The radicals on the left are the problem.

Amazon seller: "Built-in remote controller"

AKA the device has non-remote controls. AKA buttons on the device. smh

@yaycarmelo.bsky.social expert level #Delegation

Text reads "Teamwork makes the dream work" but "teamwork" is scratched out and replaced with "delegation".
Reads "Delegation makes the dream work"

Yelling "clanker" at your refrigerator and calling people who have adopted even 1% more tech than you "cogsuckers".

Nemesis Games (or s5 of #TheExpanse) solidified to diamond hardness that Chrisjen Avasarala is my favorite character in that universe and one of my favorite characters of all times. Shohreh Aghdashloo did the character great justice, too.

@darlingaxe.com I was Googling the interwebs for a deep dive on a writing subject and found an incredibly helpful article published on a website with a name that sounded familiar.
Cheers, David Brown. Thanks for the insights.

Personally, I'd get on a call with the client directly if you can. Point out the tangible reasons your suggestions are important if they are trying to achieve XYZ goals.
I also wonder what the other contractor's stake is in this.

Lantern Corps knows

Comic panels with DC Comics character The Flash and two Green Lanterns: Hal Jordan and John Steward.
The Flash says "Still, we could always use more raw power, and Earth has a third Green Lantern, Guy Gardner."
Hal says "No."
The Flash says "But we could really"
Hal and John say "No" in unison cutting off The Flash.

Trump admits he was upset that Epstein 'stole' one of his underage girls.

That could legitimately be a factual headline... Still would get sued

meme from 2020

text says "Just wait until conspiracy theorists discover they're part of the conspiracy to use conspiracy theorists to spread disinformation via conspiracy theories."

"Bing" isn't a great search engine name. You can't verb it easily without writing "Binging".
But it's a good thing that Microsoft called their browser Edge and their search engine Bing instead of vice versa. Bing would make a fine browser name but MOST people aren't going to like verbing "Edge".

Trump won't test his power to revoke citizenship on a celebrity like Rosie O’Donnell. He will first target someone convicted of heinous crimes, maybe murder or SA of a child, so that when people defend the constitution, he can say that they are endorsing the monster.
Calling the play.

Superman (2025) is a strong film, but can it carry the new DCU? I'm looking forward to seeing what Gunn and Safran do with this it.
