Detail at it again.

Things most Americans agree on: Groceries cost too much. Tariffs suck and make no sense. Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks. The debt is a mess. The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good. Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained. Americans are exhausted. AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you. Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF. Canadians are super fucking cool. Mexicans are chill. Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies. Good neighbors are a blessing. Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea. We all question, are we alone in the universe? We all fuck up along the way. Epstein didn’t hang himself. The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day. The Cowboys suck. Go Birds! Things we’re told to fight about: Me. Laptop. Vaccines. Transgenders in sports. Pronouns. That’s the joke.

Hey @grok, counting AIPAC and Republican Jewish Coalition and Miriam Adelson’s associated PAC MAGA Ky, how much did the proponents of Israel spend to unseat Massie? Where was Miriam Adelson born?

The fact that Trump made so sure to silence Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie makes me more convinced than ever that there's something really incriminating in the Epstein files.

My house burned down. I lost everything. I can’t rebuild. As a 42 year old man with 2 kids, I’ve had to move into my parents’ house, and I’m getting attacked for that? This is journalism? This is why no decent people ever get into politics. This is why you only have goblins running everything. God help you if you try to make things right for your community…if you lose your entire town, “journalists” mock you for not making your kids sleep in the toxic dirt on your burned out lot. Who raised you, dude?

As you watch this man be brilliant tonight, I want you to know that he was up at 2:30am last night with our six year old who has the stomach flu. He is our hero and we are so proud of him.

Financial Times perfectly illustrates our possible futures

Everyone who cares about climate should understand this. Texas, with no pro-climate policies, has blown passed California in clean energy. In large part because Texas has less red tape and makes it easier to build.

Co-sign. I’ve seen so many posts lately like OPs. It’s shocking that all the newcomers here mistake the SF tech bubble for the Bay Area writ large.

We bring in $5 trillion. We spend $7 trillion. We borrow the difference. The Fed prints money to cover it. That's inflation. And inflation is making you poorer.

Angel investing is giving someone $25k, forgetting all about it, and then getting really excited 4 years later when they send you $438.36.

It's been quite a while since I took the time to package up a personal tool. Going to challenge myself to do this monthly for the rest of the year. I present LOOPER, my Ralph loop take that has been yielding pretty fantastic results on long running tasks. github.com/aflanagan/looper

JIP is the new JIT.

Just bought a damn good 7 letter .com. I haven't been this excited about "work" in ages. Time to build.

Can’t stop thinking about the Orwell line from 1984 “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.“

ICE is a paramilitary organization sent to blue states for the purpose of terrorizing Americans as punishment for voting against Trump. Understand that. Texas has 3 million illegals, Minnesota 130,000 at most. When you start from that understanding, the rest falls into place.

A statement from the family of Alex Pretti, obtained by CNN: "We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."

> The NODE_OPTIONS flag is the least invasive. Try that first. The real fix is upgrading webpack, but that's a bigger yak to shave. Claude, you are my soulmate.

This is completely not okay, and we can't become numb to repeated instances of illegal and unconstitutional action by government agencies. The recent days have been horrific.
