My gawd, this is all so fucking stupid. Energized by Kennedy, Texas βMad Momsβ Are Chipping Away at Vaccine Mandates A measles outbreak in the state has not stopped βmedical freedomβ activists from pushing forward with their goal. They now have an influential ally in Washington: Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Rebecca Hardy and Michelle Evans helped found Texans for Vaccine Choice with a group of like-minded women in 2015, as measles was spreading in California. They defeated legislation tightening Texas school vaccine requirements, and helped oust the lawmaker who wrote it, earning a catchy nickname: βmad moms in minivans.β Now, as a measles outbreak that began in West Texas spreads to other parts of the country, the βmad momsβ have a slew of new allies. The 2024 elections ushered in a wave of freshman Republicans who back their goal of making all vaccinations voluntary. But no ally may be as influential as the one they gained in Washington: Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nationβs most prominent vaccine skeptic. More than five dozen vaccine-related bills have been introduced in the Texas Legislature this year. Last week, the Texas House passed three of them. Those bills would make it easier for parents to exempt their children from school requirements; effectively bar vaccine makers from advertising in Texas; and prevent doctors from denying an organ transplant to people who are unvaccinated. The Association of Immunization Managers, a national organization of state and local immunization officials, is tracking 545 vaccine-related bills in state legislatures around the country, 180 more than last year β evidence, the groupβs leaders say, that Mr. Kennedy is changing the national conversation. After peaking at the height of the coronavirus pandemic, the number of vaccine-related bills had come down in recent years. But the big fear of public health leaders that began during the pandemic, and accelerated with Mr. Kennedyβs political rise β that states will undo school vaccine mandates β has so far not come to pass. βFor the 10 years that Texans for Vaccine Choice has existed, we have had a federal government that has been wholly irrelevant or working against us,β said Ms. Hardy, the groupβs president. βWeβre excited about having individuals in the federal government who will actually cooperate with us. But what exactly that means, we donβt know.β

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 Sheriffβs Office officials, saying it was all too βeasy. LOL.β 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 Sheriffβs 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 Sheriffβs Office warned that the remaining escapees should be considered βarmed and dangerous.β

Lies and corruption are all that Trump and this regime offer. Itβs all out in the open for anyone to see, and it takes very little imagination or exaggeration to explain. Itβs a clear, concise message that should be easily comprehensible to the masses. -

For me, corruption is the all-encompassing message. Trump, his oligarch buddies, and a complicit GQP are rigging the countryβs entire socioeconomic system against average Americans in plain sight. Frankly, itβs pretty fucking apparent and straightforward to point out with inumerable examples across the board. Plus, it doesnβt require a lot of higher thinking or complicated explanations. Finally, as a phenomenon, corruption doesnβt have an inherently liberal or conservative bias, and itβs not racially tinged or about any marginalized group. Every ad, speech, or argument should begin with the thesis statement: βYou are getting fucked by the most corrupt administration in US history.β Then, follow up with umpteen examples based on the specific concerns of whichever audience is before you, whether itβs 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 Trumpβs 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 administrationβs Ukraine policy. Brink, a seasoned diplomat with nearly three decades of service under five presidents, expressed that the administrationβs approachβpressuring Ukraine, the victim of aggression, rather than confronting Russia, the aggressorβwas 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.βs 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. Brinkβs departure reflects the internal tensions within the U.S. diplomatic corps regarding the administrationβs stance on the Ukraine conflict . Brinkβs 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.βs approach to international conflicts and raises concerns about the nationβs commitment to supporting democratic allies in the face of authoritarian aggression. U.S. President Donald Trump took Putinβs 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% β local energy expert to weigh in on Trump tariffs ODESSA, Texas (KMID/KPEJ) β Texas drilling permits decreased 50% last month from a multiple of factors including President Trumpβs tariffs and a decrease in oil prices. ABC Big 2βs Chris Talley caught up with Kirk Edwards, a local energy expert, and President/CEO of Latigo Petroleum as he weighs in on President Trumpβs recent effects on the Texas oil and gas industry. βI think the industryβs in shock because [President Trump] had 100% of the oil and gas industry behind himβ, said Edwards. βMajor, big independents, Diamondback, Koterra, EOG, Matador, have all announced theyβre going to lay rigs down. Theyβre going to drop, two to three rigs apiece, and you start adding that up, itβs going to be a pretty significant hit to us here in the Permian,β explained Edwards, President and CEO of Latigo Petroleum. Edwards said what this means for oil company stocks βThe earnings were good for a lot of these companies. Itβs going to be second, third, fourth quarter earnings that are going to be hit, and I think thatβs why youβre seeing some of these stocks hit right now, because they may have had a good first quarter, but theyβre foretelling people right now, hey, weβre not going to drill as much, weβre not going to spend as much money, weβre going to slow down.β

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. Muskβs 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 β including world leaders and business tycoons alongside conspiracy theorists and far-right influencers β reveal the voices that Mr. Musk appears to value. (This βFollowingβ feed is different from the main βFor Youβ feed, which includes posts from those he follows alongside others selected by Xβs 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.
