Based on that photo, they're fortunate that only two died (so far). Yikes.

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/us/new-orleans-jail-escape.html The rectangular hole in the cell wall was just big enough for a person to squeeze through. Right next to it, a metal toilet and sink had been ripped from the wall. Above the hole, someone had scrawled a picture of a face with a tongue sticking out and taunting messages for Sheriff’s Office officials, saying it was all too “easy. LOL.” Ten inmates, who may have had help from jail workers, broke out of a New Orleans jail early Friday, escaping through that hole in a cell wall, the Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office said. The inmates were then seen on surveillance video leaving through a door on a loading dock, having shed their orange jail uniforms and wearing civilian clothes, before scaling a wall and running across an interstate, Sheriff Susan Hutson said. The Louisiana State Police said on Friday that one of the escapees, Kendell Myles, 20, had been arrested in the French Quarter of New Orleans. Another, Robert Moody, 21, was captured Friday night in the Central City neighborhood in New Orleans. Another escapee, Dkenan Dennis, was also arrested, Anne Kirkpatrick, the New Orleans police chief, said in a news conference Friday night. The Sheriff’s Office warned that the remaining escapees should be considered “armed and dangerous.”

The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
bolverk replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
Lies and corruption are all that Trump and this regime offer. It’s all out in the open for anyone to see, and it takes very little imagination or exaggeration to explain. It’s a clear, concise message that should be easily comprehensible to the masses. -
The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread

For me, corruption is the all-encompassing message. Trump, his oligarch buddies, and a complicit GQP are rigging the country’s entire socioeconomic system against average Americans in plain sight. Frankly, it’s pretty fucking apparent and straightforward to point out with inumerable examples across the board. Plus, it doesn’t require a lot of higher thinking or complicated explanations. Finally, as a phenomenon, corruption doesn’t have an inherently liberal or conservative bias, and it’s not racially tinged or about any marginalized group. Every ad, speech, or argument should begin with the thesis statement: “You are getting fucked by the most corrupt administration in US history.” Then, follow up with umpteen examples based on the specific concerns of whichever audience is before you, whether it’s made up of old people (Medicare/Social Security), small businesses (tariffs/preferential tax breaks for megacorps), families (tax break for billionaires/environment and safety regulations) marginalized groups (they already know this), young people (education/student loans), etc. Again, their corruption is widespread and out in the open, but Americans are too stupid or blinded by their hate to see how it hurts them. The gift is just sitting there, wrapped in a bow under the tree. Even if you have to grab, unwrap, and set it in their lap, do so. -
Agree with all the above. In the aftershow thingie, someone was trying to explain Ellie's behavior by saying that there's tension between Dina's ex-boyfriend and Ellie, with her trying to prove she can protect Dina as well as anyone, but instead, here comes the ex-boyfriend to rescue both Dina AND Ellie, saving the day. Still doesn't make sense. I guess what would work is saying Ellie's an immature teenager suffering through PTSD/trauma and has never been in love. Because of that, she displays erratic behavior, has poor impulse control, and is kind of a dumbass. That explanation might not suck if it were better written. Right now, Ellie isn't the most sympathetic character, to say the least.

US Ambassador resigns over Trump’s fealty toward Putin In a candid op-ed published today, former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink explained her resignation, citing profound disagreements with the Trump administration’s Ukraine policy. Brink, a seasoned diplomat with nearly three decades of service under five presidents, expressed that the administration’s approach—pressuring Ukraine, the victim of aggression, rather than confronting Russia, the aggressor—was untenable for her. She emphasized that such a policy amounted to appeasement, which history has shown leads to further conflict and suffering. Brink highlighted the atrocities committed by Russia since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, including the deaths of thousands of civilians, the abduction of 20,000 children, and over 150,000 documented war crimes. She underscored the moral imperative for the United States to support democracies and oppose autocratic aggression, arguing that the U.S.’s response to such conflicts has global implications, potentially emboldening other authoritarian regimes if left unchecked. Her resignation also followed a controversial Oval Office meeting in February 2025, where President Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, leading to a suspension of military aid to Ukraine. Brink’s departure reflects the internal tensions within the U.S. diplomatic corps regarding the administration’s stance on the Ukraine conflict . Brink’s decision to resign underscores the challenges faced by career diplomats when political leadership diverges from established foreign policy principles. Her departure signals a significant shift in the U.S.’s approach to international conflicts and raises concerns about the nation’s commitment to supporting democratic allies in the face of authoritarian aggression. U.S. President Donald Trump took Putin’s bait after encouraging Ukraine to enter into direct talks with Russia. Meanwhile, Russia made a mockery of the talks in Istanbul.

Because it's Yarn. I don't understand the technology or mechanics of it but @immamac told us multiple times a while back that Yarn embeds generally don't work on Surly. And, for whatever reason (I imagine they're masters at SEO), the use of Yarn has increased dramatically in the last few weeks on Surly.

If I pause a show for a certain period, the AppleTV app freezes up with just an endless spinning wheel with the only way to stop it being to back out of whatever program I'd been watching and then pushing play again. It's a minor inconvenience, but none of the other apps (MAX, Netflix, Disney, Prime) doing that.

Texas drilling permits drop 50% – local energy expert to weigh in on Trump tariffs ODESSA, Texas (KMID/KPEJ) – Texas drilling permits decreased 50% last month from a multiple of factors including President Trump’s tariffs and a decrease in oil prices. ABC Big 2’s Chris Talley caught up with Kirk Edwards, a local energy expert, and President/CEO of Latigo Petroleum as he weighs in on President Trump’s recent effects on the Texas oil and gas industry. “I think the industry’s in shock because [President Trump] had 100% of the oil and gas industry behind him”, said Edwards. “Major, big independents, Diamondback, Koterra, EOG, Matador, have all announced they’re going to lay rigs down. They’re going to drop, two to three rigs apiece, and you start adding that up, it’s going to be a pretty significant hit to us here in the Permian,” explained Edwards, President and CEO of Latigo Petroleum. Edwards said what this means for oil company stocks “The earnings were good for a lot of these companies. It’s going to be second, third, fourth quarter earnings that are going to be hit, and I think that’s why you’re seeing some of these stocks hit right now, because they may have had a good first quarter, but they’re foretelling people right now, hey, we’re not going to drill as much, we’re not going to spend as much money, we’re going to slow down.”

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
bolverk replied to MaybeACoordinator's topic in Daily Texan
To better understand how the information that Mr. Musk consumes on X could shape his worldview, The New York Times recreated a version of Mr. Musk’s personal feed by opening a new account on X and following the same 1,109 users that he follows. We then analyzed more than 175,000 posts from the accounts that he follows, using a service that collects data from X. Though there is no guarantee that Mr. Musk saw all of the posts captured by The New York Times, the accounts that he follows — including world leaders and business tycoons alongside conspiracy theorists and far-right influencers — reveal the voices that Mr. Musk appears to value. (This “Following” feed is different from the main “For You” feed, which includes posts from those he follows alongside others selected by X’s algorithm.) The resulting feed, shown in this article as a selection of posts curated from the much larger set, revealed ample praise for Mr. Musk and his various priorities, mixed with a torrent of right-wing outrage over progressive politics. It highlights the ways that social networks can create information bubbles. X declined to comment.

'Mother of the Year' award winner in this story. Mom bought ammunition, tactical gear for son’s planned mass violence at SAISD school, SAPD says Ashley Pardo was charged with aiding in commission of terrorism; Rhodes Middle School made security changes in fear of an attack SAN ANTONIO – The mother of an SAISD middle school student allegedly bought ammunition, magazines and tactical gear for her son, who had expressed a desire to carry out “acts of mass violence” at Jeremiah Rhodes Middle School, according to SAPD. Ashley Pardo, 33, was arrested on Monday on charges of aiding in commission of terrorism, court records show. She bought the items “with knowledge” that they would be “used to plan and carry out” a crime. On Monday, the student showed up to Rhodes Middle School campus “wearing a mask, camouflage jacket and tactical pants but left shortly after,” police said. Investigators and school officials did not know where the student was for a period of time, the affidavit states. The school added extra security and police officers and swept the campus for potential devices. The student was later found off-campus and charged with terrorism, according to school officials, who sent parents a letter on Monday. The student appeared in juvenile court on Tuesday and has another hearing scheduled for later this month, indicating that he most likely remains in custody, sources told KSAT. On Sunday, a day before, a family member contacted SAPD about items found in the possession of Pardo‘s son, including a rifle and pistol ammunition, black tactical gear and an improvised explosive device made from a mortar-style firework. The family member also stated they found three loaded magazines and a note that had several names of mass shooters written on it. Some of the items were inscribed with “14 words” and “SS” symbols - references to white supremacy language and previous mass shootings, detectives said. Pardo had previously been approached about her son’s behavior by local law enforcement, child protective services and school officials, police said. Pardo “expressed to the school her support of (her son’s) violent expressions and drawings and does not feel concerned for his behavior,” the affidavit states. In January, the school became aware of drawings made by Pardo‘s son that featured the school’s name written beside a rifle and a map of the campus labeled “suicide route,” according to authorities. There were timestamps written on the drawing. Pardo‘s son was suspended in April after it was discovered he was researching the 2020 Christchurch mosque shooting on a school-issued computer. He had “described a fascination with past mass shooters,” the affidavit states. The student attended an alternative school until he returned to Jeremiah Rhodes Middle School on May 8. At that point, school officials implemented a safety plan in fear of potential violence. Pardo was issued a $75,000 bond, which she posted on Tuesday and was released from Bexar County Jail, records show. The school is located on the West Side between Zarzamora and Castroville roads. Read the letter school officials sent to parents below: Dear Families, I want to inform you of an incident that involved a student. Our police department investigated a concern with some posts the student made online. The student was detained off-campus and is being charged with Terrorism. Please know we take all potential threats seriously and act immediately to protect everyone in our care. We will always remain vigilant to ensure our learning and working environment is safe and secure. Student safety is a top priority at SAISD schools, and we want to keep families informed of situations as soon as we are able. We thank you for your support and understanding. Sincerely, Felismina Martinez, Principal Rhodes Middle School

That sounds like how some of us talk about our racist parents, siblings, cousins, in-laws, acquaintances, grandparents, etc. around here. The shitty thing is that it *is* normal, but that's the reality. I was in complete denial about how prevalent racism is in white society before TFG got elected, but there's no other way to explain his appeal to large swaths of Americans. I don't have cable, but I'm happy to hear they're bringing it up openly. Afyer all, sunshine is the best disinfectant.
