“Opposition party”! Hah! That’s a good one!

She’s seriously claiming that that ol’ evil turtle has been thwarting the noble plans of Good Emperor Donald? *Seriously*? Drain the swamp? He’s doubled the depth by pumping in raw sewage and hanging a For Sale sign on the door of the White House. Did McConnell make him fill his cabinet with grifters, scammers,…

Says the site whose sister site io9 had a MASSIVE spoiler for the final episode of Game of Thrones in a fucking autoplaying video on its main page, making it unavoidable...

I jumped ship from Comcast to a local ISP last fall and am still using the same comcast.net address. They told me that their addresses remain active as long as you use it at least every six months. I’ve used it as my primary contact address for 15 years, so migrating it elsewhere would have been a huge pain. The…

“Never Again (to Us)”

To say nothing of the fact that the guy’s name is “Namihei”...

I think I have three of varying sizes. Can style, mechanical calculators are cool, too. I used to have one of those, but lost it at some point.

Uh, yes, that’s exactly what journalism is supposed to be doing. Contrary to the modern “I’ll just collate their press releases and talking points and call it a day,” actual journalists dig to uncover things that need fixing and then report their findings to focus public attention on it, and that pressure is what gets…

I bought an Epson FastFoto FF-640 two or three years ago and digitized many shoeboxes full of old family photos in a day. If you’ve got way more than is feasible to send out to a professional service, I’d recommend going that route. Yeah, it’s $500, but sending out that many for scanning will cost thousands and could…

“25 years after the MURDERS of...” It wasn’t a carbon monoxide overdose, they were killed. Word choice matters, like all the times reporters use “misled” or “misspoke” instead of “lied”.

By design, in that if there were such a thing, people who bomb abortion clinics or gun down doctors would be defined as terrorists. Republicans will never let that happen in a million years because those people are their base.

“Despite those concerns, President Trump reportedly ordered Jared be given top security clearances anyway. “

“Is it being run for the benefit of the gun owners in the country and the public? Or is it being run as a business generating enterprise for officers and employees of the organization?”

I seem to recall Pence presiding over a MASSIVE jump in HIV infections while governor of Indiana that were a direct result of his dumbass death cult policies.

Quick, change all the locks on the country before they come back!

You sup soup. Really.

“Lede” probably came about as a result of “lead” being pronounced two different ways — “lead the way” vs. “lead balloon,” and newspaper writers wanted to make clear which one they meant. To make matters worse, “leading” is pronounced the latter way when talking about typesetting (from the use of thin strips of lead to…

They were planning to destroy it with the homemade bombs and napalm they had brought with them ... and they’re still not charged as terrorists. “Conspiring to violate civil rights”? What the fuck kind of milktoast, we-refuse-to-call-a-spade-a-spade-because-they’re-not-brown bullshit is this?

There were a two freeware homebrew games called Star Wars: Battle of Yavin and Battle of Endor along the same lines that were simple, but fun. (Just looked - they came out 16 years ago? Sheeee-it, time flies...)

If you overdraw, Wells Fargo will open a new account in your name, up to four a day...
