If you had said to me even 5 years ago that today a self-driving robotaxi would be my main means of transit when walking or public transit doesn't meet the need of the moment, I would have said that was bonkers. But here we are. @waymo.bsky.social

Someone mentioned a gay porn guy who is known to be a Trump supporter being hired for an upcoming event. I said that would be reason enough for me to not attend the event. I have zero tolerance for a queer business employing anyone who supports the decimation of LGBTQ rights.

Let's leave priggish Tom Cotton on a piece of debris from a boat that just exploded in the middle of a large body of water and see if he feels "shipwrecked" or that he is "floating helplessly."
WELKER: Lawmakers say the 2 men appeared to raise their arms potentially to surrender. Why did Admiral Bradley interpret these actions as anything other than them trying to survive?

TOM COTTON: They were sitting or standing on top of a capsized boat. They weren't floating helplessly in the water

I've had two technical problems on my laptop the last few days and in both cases a quick query prompt in ChatGPT gave me the answers. Both solutions worked perfectly. Maybe that's something AI is really good at since it references mountains of technical documentation.

This surprises no one who is paying attention. The Trump administration doesn't care who they attack as long as it plays into their deflection narrative.

I read another "boycott Costco" post just now. So I'm heading over to Costco to buy more stuff because they are one of my favorite places to shop. They treat their employees and customers extremely well. I will always be a dedicated Costco shopper.

She is a horrible human being. What hate she must have in her heart. I have no idea who hurt her so badly, but that hurt has turned into a nonstop hate-fueled series of attacks on trans people.

I dumped my Spotify subscription when they began advertising for ICE. I moved to Qobuz and I love it. Highly recommended. I did a lot of research on the music streaming companies and services and Qobuz ranked high on both streaming quality and company ethics.

Live in the path of hurricanes, flood zones, wildfires, or extreme heat ? Especially if you're relatively young, probably the smartest thing you could do if own a home in one of those areas is to sell now and move.

No one will ever take FIFA seriously again. They gave Trump a FIFA Peace Prize. What a joke. What an embarrassment. FIFA has decided to outright embrace incompetence, hate, and fascism. F them.
