New to the site, got banned from Twitter for calling out the insurrectionists.
I'm a father of two boys and grandfather to two great little girls. I have my opinions and love the way you can talk to new people and share ideas and love looking at the great art work people are shearing on here.

For all his “independence and integrity,” Justice Thomas could not, for the life of him, figure out normal instructions on normal federal tax forms that require normal federal tax filers to disclose the earnings of spouses. For four years, despite Ginni Thomas receiving nearly $700,000 in income from the Heritage Foundation, Justice Thomas said that she had no income. He said oops, later, “due to a misunderstanding of the filing instructions.”

When men refer to themselves as ‘Alpha males’, I hear that in the context of software, where alpha versions are unstable, missing important features, are filled with flaws and are generally not fit for the public.
When a school board, a library or a state bans books, it’s not a show of strength. It’s a sign they’re ruled by fear. Fear of knowledge. Fear of opposing views. Fear of democracy.
Might be controversial, but I thought at the time - and still believe - Twitter made the right call by removing the New York Post's original tweets about Hunter Biden's laptop. Like the Clinton emails "news", the story was bullshit emanating from Trump's campaign.
Twitter's mistake was in once again kowtowing to the rightwing outrage machine.

We are so condescending
Our lies are never ending
We’ll steal everything from you
Our lives are trite and jaded
If you’re not one of us you’re hated
We are the best, we’re gonna kill you

Woah oh oh
Death cult go oh
We’re not right (YEAH!)
We’re not free (YEAH!)
We’ll fight for Putin (YEAH!)
You’ll seeeeeeee

We’re a bunch of fascists
Oh! A big bunch of fascists
We’re a bunch of fascists
in a cult

I’ve been in a great mood as of late. Focused and cheerful and just happy to be present in life.

@area51 Well the Peter Principal discusses someone who is promoted above their level of capability.

McCarthy isn't effective and being moved up. He's actively negotiating, pleading and maneuvering to get a job he has no reason to be in and clearly has no capability to handle.

As the DeSantis regime eviscerates freedom of speech in Florida's university system, timid journalists use the anodyne word "conservative" to describe him and his apparatchiks. Refusing to call the extremists what they truly are is poor journalism. https://www.heraldtribune.com/story/news/politics/2023/01/06/gov-ron-desantis-wants-conservative-overhaul-at-new-college-of-florida/69784941007/

The DeSantis administration was sued for failing to release official records relating to its infamous migrant flight to Martha’s Vineyard. Then it dumped the documents right before Christmas, hoping no one would notice. But we noticed. I’m doing my part to amplify this story.

A Top DeSantis Aide Behind the Martha’s Vineyard Migrant Flight Is In Some Deep Shit

Something about the migrant “relocation” flight to Martha’s Vineyard, orchestrated by the DeSantis administration this past summer, has always bothered me, even beyond the inhumanity of it all: the price tag. The charter flight company that actually flew the migrants, Vertol Systems, received a contract worth over $1.5 million from the state of Florida. That single flight

So, I'm finding out the hard way that if you start a new Mastodon server, nobody can find you.

This is a shameless request for some boosts so some of the bigger instances see me.
