Taking the gloves off could mean a couple of things:

  • putting lots of white people in camps / deporting them for disloyalty
  • killing people and saying it’s because they deserve to die (as opposed to current false self-defense claims)
  • replacing elected officials in ‘liberal’ areas by force / military style governance

Basically, they’re still at least pretending the rule of law sticks. They’re arguing against court orders, not ignoring them. Claiming legal reasons for killings (even if video evidence obviously doesn’t agree). Talking about how they have to get their act together for elections, not saying they’ll ignore them.

They desperately want it to be. The first time an ICE dipshit gets killed, they’ll feel like they can take the gloves off.

“Archipelago” is kind of a big word for their typical viewer, huh?

That might feel great for about four seconds. I imagine a boss that would get a kick out of scolding you in front of everyone would jump at the chance to fire you in front of everyone.

At some point in the third quarter, I stopped paying attention and mentally prepared for the bummer conversation with my brother in law today.

Instead, I got a call from him later in the evening and before I could finish the word “hello” he was already yelling “WE DID IT”

Tough to imagine a bigger comeback against such a huge rival at home in the playoffs like that.

When I have an idea, it usually requires one or two pieces of information from the internet to implement.

So while I am still actively having that idea, I try to quickly open a browser tab on my phone and search for that thing. There, it can’t just disappear now!

(Side effects may include some browser tabs that are difficult to interpret. But most are pretty clear.)

 

I have a small set of non-default settings in Voyager for iOS that I use. Every time the app updates, those settings get flushed and reset back to the defaults.

Not a huge deal, but it’s weird, right? Any suggestions on making my preferred gestures and layout survive app updates?

More than half a million dudes getting wounded or dying during the Russian winter: aw merde

I usually don’t scope someone’s history because of one bad comment, but yeesh. You’ve been here for one day and it’s just about 100% bad.

Things are already equal

My friend, go outside.

People who insist on alkaline water (and other such nonsense) deserve exactly what they get: no benefits and empty wallets.

The charlatans who peddle the stuff, though. They can go right to hell.

I am once again begging people not to post a headline that starts with “Trump, 79,” that doesn’t end with. Well. You know
