“Liz Lemon, this is Dan Houseman.” “It’s Danhausen.” “Whatever his name is, I gave him 5 dollars to curse Martin Lawrence in 1996 and I’ve been on top ever since”

It is a moral failure of our country that we changed the rules to create a trillionaire while doing nothing about the 771,000 homeless and over 18 million who do not have enough to eat.

MAGA: Obama’s $1.7 billion to Iran to reduce uranium stockpile by 98% = TREASON. MAGA when they find out 2026 proposal includes: $12B up front, $12B in 60 days, $300B reconstruction plan & conceding Hormuz to Iran & not addressing ballistic missiles or enriched uranium/nukes:

Hegseth removed Chappie James's portrait from the Air Force Art Gallery and left the wall empty. James flew 179 combat missions across two wars. First Black four-star general in US military history. Curry passed that portrait every day for a decade. When it came down, he retired. The wall is still empty.
Sec. Hegseth’s actions continue to be despicable – and they certainly aren’t representative of the Army I served in. We’ve repeatedly seen how this White House has disparaged and mistreated both active-duty service members and the veterans who raised their hand to serve this country. I’m glad that people are continuing to stand up and speak out. theatlantic.com/magazine/202…

Buttigieg: We didn't know it, but we've all been trusting our lives to the restraint of whoever the president might be. And now we have a president who is completely unrestrained. And so the only answer to that is a functioning Congress. It turns out we do not have a functioning Congress. The House of Representatives is not representative. One of the most important organs of our democracy is not democratic. They say, "Oh, no. We're not manipulating the map to disempower black people. We're manipulating the map to disempower Democrats who happen to be black people.” So, the time has come to make it impossible to manipulate the map for any reason and just have fair maps.

Commercial advertising, product placements, and corporate-sponsored promotions are explicitly prohibited on national parklands. The White House lawn is a unit of the National Park System. It also violates standard Anti-Vending and Solicitation Laws as well as misuse of public funds and government endorsement ethics. Everything this administration does spits in the face of our laws. Everything is a grift.

Wanna know what also contributes to skyrocketing costs? Rick Scott was CEO of Columbia/HCA when the hospital chain orchestrated what became the largest healthcare fraud case in U.S. history. The company pleaded guilty to 14 corporate felonies and ultimately paid a record $1.7 billion in federal fines for systematically defrauding Medicare and Medicaid.
50 years ago: Healthcare was about $700 a year for a family of four. Now: It’s over $25,000. Cars cost more. Houses cost more. Starting a business costs more. You name it. Why? Because CONGRESS keeps spending money we don’t have and working families pay the price.

remember when the political media publicized months of heated debate over Virginia Democrats putting redistricting up to a public referendum? anyways here's the Florida Supreme Court ignoring its own state constitution to push through new maps with zero public input!
🚨The Florida Supreme Court has upheld the state’s newly enacted congressional map for the 2026 elections. The map is projected to deliver a 24R-4D split across Florida’s 28 districts

People should not be judging AI-augmented coding by “1 shots.” If someone told you that their model did a “one shot of Minecraft” and they’re impressed by that, you need to consider how much semantic heavy lifting the word “Minecraft” is doing in that prompt. Ask them to one shot Minecraft without using the word Minecraft. It’s not trivial to one shot something unique, because programming is the art of making the ambiguous incredibly specific through sculpting. AI sculpting is less about vibes and more about finding the specificity you want and keeping the system stable through changes. Good SDLC practices still matter, historical context still matters, and knowing how things work matters, shout out to @Grady_Booch. It’s a cool party trick to one shot Mario Brothers or space invaders, but then you’ll end up with the most mid version of both. Literally mid. You’ll get the statistical fat part of the Bell curve version of these mythical games. You’re telling the model to close its eyes and draw the face of these games from memory. As high-level programming cedes way to the prose compiler, making your goals and specs well understood to the ambiguity loop and showing good judgment is going to matter more than ever. Consider all of your words and make sure that certain words aren’t carrying all the semantic load, hidden or otherwise.

while this may seem incongruous with the outcome of the Virginia court case, it actually reflects a strong ideological consistency amongst right-wing judges: in both cases they overturned the will of the voters in order to help republicans win elections

The ruling in favor of upholding Florida’s new congressional map was 6-1. Justice Jorge Labarga, the sole appointee of Governor of Charlie Crist, dissented. The other 6 justices were appointed by Governor DeSantis.
