I paused, out of breath. The Void had taken all my frustrated screaming and absorbed it.
"I'm sorry," I whispered. "You must have heard all this before, countless times."
'only you,' said the Void, 'scream your frustration like you do'
I took a deep breath to resume, then smiled.
"Thanks."

I was the first Senator to call on RFK Jr. to resign or be fired.
This is a man who has no background in science or medicine, and his dangerous actions and rhetoric will cause children to die.

Elon's "Rosebud" is posting. His deepest desire is for everyone to tell him what a hilarious and clever poster he is. The problem is that he isn't funny. And it kills him.
It explains why he bought Twitter. It's why Grok is the way it is. And it explains . . . whatever the holy hell this is.

Raising the minimum wage is good, but not good enough.
Workers should’t have to constantly fall behind until politicians can be made to do their job.
It is time to do what Michigan, Maine, Ohio, Florida and 16 other states have already done and take the politicians out of it. #IndexTheMinimumWage

The bill last numbered H.R. 9495 would empower the Treasury Secretary to designate any nonprofit the Secretary wishes to kill a “terrorist supporting organization” and revoke the tax-exempt status on which it depends for survival. Unconstitutional but lethal in the harm it would do while in force.

My thoughts on ABC news- Scientists, not political appointees, should be who advises the public on clinical guidance. RFK needs to meet with CDC career leaders and learn about the agency's responses to outbreaks and overall programs vs directing CDC website changes based on ideology not science

Dr. Debra Houry, who resigned from her position as chief medical officer of the CDC in 2025, called the change on the CDC’s website "disturbing."

Instead of Pull Request code reviews, consider reviewing the code on every green light.
Small diffs enables greater attention to detail, a much lower cost of fixing problems (or backing out), and there's no code review bottleneck when you want to ship.
