  • Alt National Park Service is not credible, they are basically a left-targeting qanon. The organizers of the protest say they had 5 million people in attendance.

  • It was a hilarious piece pointing out the right problem (aging out of touch and feckless leadership not representing the people) while claiming that progressives are the real enemy they need to be standing against. Just peak NYT op-ed material. So we can see what the billionaires are worried about.

  • It was the first protest I've ever attended.

    It won't be the last.

  • The question is whether the California National Guard will follow Trump's orders or Newsom's orders in a situation where a court has ruled that Newsom is who they currently work for.

  • They claim he didn't identify himself, but the video shows he clearly states "I am Senator Alex Padilla and I have questions for Ms. Noem"

  • Republican congressthings clearly have the same data on their internal polls, which is why they felt it safe to kill the dumpster-fire bill Trump tried to ram through.

  • Same. Raw spinach salad for days, but cook or can it and it immediately becomes one of my most hated foods.

    Carrots are not as bad but I don't care for them cooked, especially when raw carrots are so tasty.

  • Newsome isn't progressive and is a very pro-corporate neo-liberal. My opinion hasn't changed, but somebody needs to stand up to Trump and it might as well be him, even if it's just an opportunity for him to posture for a 2028 run.

  • LAPD doesn't report to the governor, their authority comes through the city so they report to the mayor who does not work for the governor. LASD also does not report to the governor, they report to the sheriff who is elected and does not work for the governor.

  • Crooks don't like being told on.

  • This disclosure was from last year and the exploit was patched before the researcher published the findings to the public.

  • I worked for nearly a decade as product support for various voice mail applications, so I feel very strongly about this.

    Fuck voice mail.

  • He was only off by a little less than a trillion dollars.

  • Oh good, more fucking DARVO from our conservative psychopaths.

  • An Atari 800XL. Custom OS loaded into a BASIC interpreter at startup unless you put a bootable floppy in the external 5.25" drive. We would load up DOS on the external drive and then boot whatever games my dad had pirated from his buddies. Played bootleg Ultima IV, Castle Wolfenstein (the original original one, not the 3D one) and a bunch of others. We had two cartridges (Pengo and Galaxian), but we also had 100s of games in a big shoe box of floppies.

    I also learned BASIC on it at a pretty young age, which helped push me into technology as a career path, though I had to unlearn a lot of that when I got to high school and took real programming courses.

  • Ah yes, I remember that part of the Bible where Jesus healed the sick, but only if they weren't dirty freeloaders.

  • I, like the tumblr poster in the link, got soda^i = soda+3 and I was like 'I just woke up, I'm not dealing with imaginary sodas right now'

  • These asshole can't stop fucking me over.

  • Middle School (Mississippi): Basically all lies: having sex with a condom will give you AIDS, abortions are evil and most women who get them die of cancer or suicide. Even 6th grade me knew that shit was fucking wrong, but I was already on thin ice in that school for fucking up the curve, thank Homosexual Jesus that I was only there half a year.

    Junior High (New Jersey): Skip ahead to 9th grade. Sex-Ed was taught by a terrified gym teacher who was just adorable. This was pretty comprehensive, lots of biology and factual information. It was the early 90s so a big part of it was teaching how to avoid getting HIV, teaching both abstinence and condoms. Some mention of same-sex relationships, but when asked about the risk of HIV transmission from lesbian sex he blanched and said he didn't know. No real fault here given the time period. They also taught various forms of birth control and other STIs. There was an undercurrent of promoting abstinence but also some pragmatic realism. In retrospect it could have been better, but compared to most of the country it was very good.
