    If this thing ever gets built, I propose that Senators are required to take their oath in the ballroom. Those stairs should help reduce the average age by a couple of decades.

    One of the funny aspects of the big tech world is how baseball caps, ironic shirts, and beards became the new costume for wealth. If you show up to Google in a suit, people are going to ask what you're selling. My firm actually got negative feedback because one of our project managers wore a tie. It's just another stupid, arbitrary dress code.

    Inflation, by it's nature, is a rate. There is no inflation for "today". There always has to be a delta t. And, yes, prices are higher in blue states. That's because it's where people want to live. That's how the free market works: price is a reflection of the perceived worth amongst the consumers. I am paying considerably more to live in Washington than I did in Nebraska. For me politics is part of the value I get for living in Washington, but I recognize for others there are usually other factors like career opportunities, big city appeal, and natural beauty.
  4. If you check their net worth, it all makes more sense. That is the only measure of worth. Doesn't matter if you are drug trafficker, a Muslim, a Communist, an immigrant, or a pedophile. If you have money, Trump wants to hang with you. If you are poor, you are worthless.

    Y'all need to quit with the kink shaming.

    Do you think if they put on a suit they would suddenly understand how an airport works?

    Do they need to be dry-cleaned like suits?

    There is a difference between not using headphones and not following an arbitrary dress code.
  9. Have you read "AI Snake Oil" by Kapoor and Narayanan? I think programming is one area where AI is very useful. You have a ton of data to learn from and an easy way to track result vs input.

    I. Don't. Give. A. Shit. It's none of my fucking business what people wear on a plane. It's not of anyone else's business what I wear.
  11. I’m not sure if the Dems win on this. End of the day, there are a lot of Americans who would cheer a President murdering drug runners. Duterte got pretty popular in the Philippines following that path, at least for a while. I think Hegseth is more hiding behind Bradley than throwing him under the bus. Bradley was promoted to this role during Trump’s time; he may be a MAGA believer. If Bradley stands behind the order, then the Dems need to attack Bradley to get to Trump or Hegseth. For the ignorant electorate, it’s easy for MAGA to message that as the left wing radicals attacking the patriotic military in defense of those narcoterrorist drug runners. But, as with many battles, it needs to be fought even if you might get hurt.

    I always figured it's because of the cheesy Paul Revere and the Raiders song. So proud to live; so proud to die.
  13. It looks like Bradley spent a fair amount of his career with the Navy Seals. For certain types of missions, where the options to take prisoners are very limited and you are worried about anyone raising an alarm, I can where leadership is pretty flexible regarding the rules of engagement. But this wasn't that type of mission. There were no American servicemen at risk. There were no civilians at risk, other than those we murdered. I'm hoping this will get people to start paying attention to this potential war with Venezuela. It was largely flying under the radar. I would rather have the discussion now, before Americans starting getting martyred. Once you get flag covered caskets, the public tends to lose perspective for a few years.
  14. Per his wiki page, Bradley became the commander of the United States Special Operations Command on October 3rd, 2025. Admiral Holsey's resignation was announced on October 16th, but his position was the "head" of US Southern Command. The first boat was struck on September 1st. So, no, Bradley was not a replacement for Holsey. It sounds like Holsey was not directly in charge of the operation, but probably was involved and resigned. Bradley may be fucked. I hope someone confiscates his side arm.

    As someone who has trolled Bacon many times, that really doesn't sound like him. The most likely possibility is that a staffer went rogue. It's also possible a consultant suggested putting more bite into his social media as part of a Presidential run - because Trump redefined what "Presidential" is.

    This admiral resignation from six weeks ago just became more interesting. This guy is likely restrained from testifying unless Congress asks. So, do we get enough Republicans willing to sign onto to that invitation? Or do the Dems need to win the midterms to drive it? https://www.navytimes.com/news/your-navy/2025/10/16/us-navy-commander-overseeing-venezuelan-strikes-steps-down/
  17. Jesus, that reads like Karoline called in the hit on a custody issue involving her brother. I mean, maybe it's not, but there would be zero safeguards to prevent it and Karoline seems just like that kind of bitch.
  18. For those planning to engage in good trouble, make sure you and someone you trust have access to a reasonable amount of cash for bail. Write phone #s on your arm.
  19. It’s a small crew at the the Tuco household this Thanksgiving : my vegetarian wife, vegan brother, and vegan sister-in-law. That makes me the right wing asshole.
  20. Tyson closing beef processing plant in Lexington NE. The plant employs 3200 people in a town of 11,000. The response from the all-Republican Congressional delegation really warms my heart. So many thoughts. So many prayers. For a minute I was worried they didn’t have a plan.
  21. Correct me if I am wrong, but the current hearing is the defense asking the judge to dismiss the indictment with prejudice, due to malicious prosecution. (I'm hazy on the terms there.). Since that is very rarely granted, I am curious if the judge might just say there is no valid indictment to dismiss, and sidesteps the bigger question on whether the prosecution overall is malicious.

    I'm going to assume you've never worked at any places I've worked. I know plenty of boomer/gen-x types who are working 60 hour weeks. I ain't one of them because I fully recognize the company will take all that the company can.
  23. “Chatbot, how do we end poverty?” “Tax the rich.”
  24. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to the opinion that bad people is more about bad situations and bad brain chemistry. Jesus’s message to not judge, just love, rings truer as I get balder. But I’d still beat the shit out of Stephen Miller given the chance.
  25. Follow-up question: how would that affect her eventual Supreme Court nomination?
