CEO of We Make Stuff Corp:
“We have just about eliminated labor costs. My stock options are flying! My neighbors are soooo jealous!”

Later:
“Wait, how come nobody‘s buying our stock? What? Well then how come nobody‘s buying our stuff? Buh?”

"Homelessness today isn't just the person sleeping outside a Walmart. It's often the cashier or worker stocking the shelves inside."

I joined @pbsnews.org to talk about There Is No Place for Us and the staggering rise of the "working homeless":

I can’t reiterate enough how god awful hunting culture is in Massachusetts. Unethical and dangerous. The only people worse than the rabid anti-hunters are the hunters themselves whose behavior and techniques would disgust a Texan.

Massachusetts is slowly killing my love of hunting and fishing.
And as a result the woods are filled to overflowing with people NOT doing the right thing.

Northwestern and Columbia being famous for journalism and bending over for Trump seems a little too on the nose these days
This is the second largest payout from a private university to the Trump admin yet, second only to Columbia’s $200m

An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

Ordering no quarter, as Hegseth effectively did, isn't a newfangled modern war crime. It was understood as a crime as far back as the Revolutionary War. Washington threatened to do reprisals over it. The bad guy in 'The Patriot' is (very loosely) based off a British officer who was notorious for it.

And just to be 100% clear it is explicitly forbidden in Article 23(d) of the 1907 Hague Convention IV, itself incorporated into domestic law via 18 USC 2441(c)(2). It is a directly enumerated war crime, and giving or acting on that order is prosecutable domestically.

I’m so happy to say that after being in our rescue for 11 months, both being adopted then returned when their first homes weren’t the right fit, then bonding strongly with each other here in Casa Crits, Satsuma and Chicory are being adopted together at last!! They’ll be going on a huge adventure!

To be explicit, we executed a German U-Boat commander who said he had to sink lifesaving gear / “inadvertently” kill survivors because it might give away his position, thereby potentially resulting in the loss of his submarine.

We executed multiple members of that crew.
Heinz-Wilhelm Eck might have something to say about this one.

So I'm pretty sure a three star knows that an order to strike alleged combatants who are hors de combat is facially illegal, in case anyone's still having any hangups on whether Bradley needs to be in the dock after this

He’s literally just some guy, that’s the whole point of having a president and not a king. You can tell him to get bent and all he can do is sputter.
I can’t believe people in the room don’t push back. It doesn’t matter if he’s the president, part of holding him accountable is standing up to his bullying— especially if he’s doing it right in front of your face
