I just saw someone say something to the effect that back in FDR's day, the rich didn't own the media and that's why he was successful. Man, if folx won't pick up a book, the least they can do is not speak on subjects about which they clearly have no knowledge.

The issue is not who the two survivors were affiliated with, but their status at the moment force was used. Under the laws of armed conflict, status of mortality and status of incapacitation determine whether a person is a lawful target.

Somehow wound up with a YouTube algorithm that shows me lots of Canadian channels. I'm going with it, just in case I have to flee the US and it helps with my asylum request. Right now I'm binging videos by a guy who rebinds books and makes them fancy. He says "aboot" a lot.

Turned my final paper in. Twice. I turned it in twice. After I turned it in the first time, I started second-guessing myself. If I get less than a 93% on this paper, I lose summa cum laude literally with the very last assignment of my master's degree. Which...would not surprise me in the slightest.

Man, what the hell happened to the Watch Mojo YouTube channel? It used to be kind of a fun listicle channel that had some decent videos. Now it's AI-narrated bullshit with clickbait titles, I guess? Really unfortunate.

Y’all, I’m not convinced ol’ Judge box-wine can secure an indictment against this dude.
DC National Guard shooting suspect to be charged with first-degree murder, Pirro says
Jeanine Pirro announced the suspect's charges would be upgraded to first-degree murder following the death of one of the guardsmen.

Make them define “Americanism.”

For all Americans to see.

Particularly those who will be excluded.
Oh, so this is why the Department of Labor decided to deploy the term bizarre term "Americanism" in its winking neo-Nazi post today

I’ve seen nurses and social workers move Veterans who had been street homeless for 30 years and longer into housing. I’ve watched them turn those battered people into happy, independent, well-adjusted citizens.

Nurses and social workers are fucking professionals. Never doubt it.

I have learned from my study of public sector financial management that it is really good to have a growing population of high-earning 30-somethings with a median home price of $1.2 million.

My first inclination is to focus on the dishonor Pete Hegseth is heaping on the United States Navy with his unlawful no-quarter orders, but I need to step back from that.

Instead, I'm taking it easy, writing the last paper for my master's degree, ever. I'll be angry tomorrow. Today, I'm gonna chill

I will be spending Black Friday trying to unravel the fuckery left to us by the Oracle Cerner EHR debacle, so if any of you know someone who works for that company, please do kick them in their softest parts and let them know it came straight from my heart.

TRUMP: If you look at Somalia, they are taking over Minnesota.

REPORTER: What do the Somalians have to do with this Afghan guy who shot the National Guard members?

TRUMP: Ah, nothing. But Somalians have caused a lot of trouble. They're ripping us off.

The important thing to remember about Trump using the awesome powers of the United States Federal Government to persecute six Democratic lawmakers for quoting the law on unlawful orders in a video is, we still haven't seen those Epstein Files.

These sub-mediocre white dudes who are elevated not from hard work and qualifications, but because of their willingness to do anything for Trump, are soft as fuck. This immediately reminded me Bongino crying on Fox a couple of months ago because he had to work an actual job.

Why in every article about that kiddy diddling high school football coach who's on the run do they have to mention his team's undefeated record? Like, is that really relevant to the fact that a pedo PE teacher is on the loose?

I’d argue the pivot away from long-term growth and building quality products in favor of the quick buck and designed obsolescence is the problem with not just our economy, but our very society.
If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

I gather the two National Guard servicemembers who were reported dead by the governor of West Virginia are, in fact, still alive and in critical condition at a DC hospital. Sarah Beckstrom, 20, and Andrew Wolfe, 24. Just kids. I hope they make a full and speedy recovery.
They didn't get to choose their deployment out of state. That's not how it works. They followed their orders and showed up. Maybe they were murdered by a madman. Maybe it was a political thing. The only certainty is that they were killed with a gun and they weren't killed for anything they had done.

Your routine reminder that not only is caring for the poor and vulnerable a moral imperative, a religious commandment, and just the right thing to do, it also saves the system money, adds healthy workforce participants, and lowers crime. Plus, it makes you feel good to do good.
Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

Everyone's clowning on this admittedly monumental stupidity, but remember that the GOP NAMED THEIR SHITTY ANNUAL FUNDING ACT "BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL" AT THIS DOTARD'S DIRECTION.

They're def going to start calling themselves "Tpublicans."
