Heads up: possible tsunami tonight along the entire west coast 'round midnight: www.tsunami.gov/events/PAAQ/...

Stay safe out there. If you're on the shore, spend the night inland, on higher ground. Definitely not the day for camping on the beach.

Apparently, being a free speech absolutist means that if I disagree with your speech, you're absolutely a terrorist.

"Other people" don't appreciate your humor because your jokes aren't remotely funny, and you're actually just a horrendously awful person... Your Majesty.

This is truly an ahistoric moment in America. Greatness = betraying our friends and pandering to thugs?

Given the wave of outrageous revisionism, history books in the US will soon claim that Poland started WW2 by invading the Soviet territory of South Florida, prompting Hitler to heroically come to Moscow's aid by brokering a real estate deal for a beach front resort in Crimea.

"Cruelty is the point" was a common refrain last time.

What we're seeing now is different.

This time around, *lawlessness* is the point.

Judges with the temerity to hold DOGE accountable will probably find their courts defunded and personal bank accounts empty, in short order.

Instead of a presidential library, &^%* will open a center for performative cruelty where "guests" can relive the trauma of his first four terms.

This next term/decade/century is going to be a harsh lesson in the value of epistemic responsibility and civic engagement. Maybe those elitist snobs were actually looking out for you instead of just trying to make you look dumb.

Story time:

The war is over.

We lost.

Barbarians are sacking the capitol and looting anything of value and destroying whatever they don't understand.

And still, our people remain stubbornly distracted by bread and circuses.

(not) The End

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

Haven't used social media in the last decade. Maybe, by now, they've managed to make it less of a soul crushing, toxic swamp of click bait and disinformation...
