![Star Trek Lower Decks scene. Captain Freeman is pictured in Engineering near the warp core which glows blue and red behind her. There's another crew member working in the background. With her back to the previously mentioned warp core, Freeman stands looking down & reading a padd she's holding. Closed caption reads, "Her medical opinion is that you are "a [bleep] pile of stress."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:i6ocendj65mmddfndihajsky/bafkreic3a4is22apx5ss6vtar2czn34mfhotkk7riw3q56in3wanbsddi4@jpeg)

Instead of the Nuzzi shit, let's focus on the fact that apparently Johnny Knoxville got married this past weekend, the wedding was officiated by John Waters, and a dog was involved

No it’s six and half of three times twenty, except by half they mean “halfway to three times twenty from two times twenty”

Of course I was conflicted when I first realized my highly intelligent genius daughter was also a fiendishly cunning serial killer, but eventually I decided it is my responsibility as a parent to raise the best child I can and it is the responsibility of the FBI to capture her.

He was a Whopper, I was a McRib—back for a limited time, only at participating locations. He told me to "have it your way," I was content enough to say "I'm lovin' it." Could I really be his Burger Queen? He doesn't have a worm in his brain by the way. So the memes are wrong, the ones about the worm

We need to do Reconstruction again, this time actually punishing the criminals and ensuring that it will never happen again by wiping out the horrible subculture that gave birth to Nazis again.
I urge members of the legal profession to realize that prosecuting individuals who seek to overturn the constitutional order is not "retaliation" in any normatively significant sense.

I ended up looking for my childhood PC (dad's 286 for trivial remote VAX sysadmin work) printer, the Epson FX-286. Think of it as a fancypants, 132-column MX-80.
Epson is one of the few mfrs to have their old product manuals online. They're even OCR'd, which sometimes is sometimes ... unhelpful.

Relatedly, Trump's supposed pardons for fake electors, and Giuliani, Powell etc, which were only announced via tweet by Ed Martin, not by Trump, have still not appeared on the WH clemency page, and may never. So those increasingly seem not just symbolic but fake. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Trump issues fake pardons for fake electors
The president can't pardon cronies facing state charges. He's trying anyway.

Given how much political discourse over the past few days has been dominated by parsing emails in order to better speculate about the depraved sexual inclinations of financial and political elites, I have to admit that Pizzagaters won culturally, even if they were wrong in the specifics.
