More hope for those suffering from an HIV infection (who have enough money to access it). Stem cell transplant cured HIV.

I understand people being frustrated with me because I have amplified former MAGA voices. I will likely do so again. Not to amplify the voice. It is to recognize that MAGA is breaking. The cracks are becoming fissures. I'm spreading a message of hope. Soon it will all end, as McCarthyism ended.

If you own AI stocks, there are many people sounding alarms. Of course, no one "knows" what the stock market is going to do or when it will do it.

If American companies weren’t paying for the tariffs like Trump claimed, then why is Costco suing Trump? 🤔

When an incompetent weekend Fox and Friends host is made the head of our military services, we can expect bad things to happen. And our expectations have been met.

"Kill everybody." It looks like a war crime.

As AI and robotics replace jobs, what is the plan to implement similar programs nationwide? Elon Musk claims that robotics and AI will soon have US productivity outpacing inflation (about 3 years), but who will benefit from this and who will be left further behind?
For the first time a U.S. county is making their guaranteed income program permanent.

The Cook County Board of Commissioners has unanimously approved $7.5 million to continue its guaranteed income program.

Each month over 3,000 households will get an unconditional $500.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

A storm last night knocked the power out on Main Street in Witch Haven Bay. Strangely, the antique shop stayed lit—no electricity—only flame-colored magic flickering in the windows.

Sorry to be a broken record but it's nuts to me that the New York Times would write an entire article summarizing a court ruling and refuse to provide a link to said ruling. This is a disservice to readers. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/n...

Because of course the guy who was sentenced to seven years in federal prison for wire fraud and aggravated identity theft got a Presidential pardon...and a job at the DOJ.
