Hey pundits, if you're arguing that it's the protesters fault that Donald Trump is illegally calling out US troops to counter public protests, The Onion is mocking you. Deservedly.

Protesters Urged Not To Give Trump Administration Pretext For What It Already Doing

LOS ANGELES—Responding to escalating clashes between civilian activists and militarized immigration authorities, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass publicly urged protesters Monday not to give the Trump administration any pretext for what they’re already doing and will keep doing no matter what. “Angelenos—don’t engage in violence and give the administration an excuse to inflict all the […]

Finally have some free time to start moving away from a Gmail email address. Can anybody recommend a fully hosted email service provider?

I can pay.

Something like Fastmail, with the ability for aliases, and a clean, HTML, designed interface that isn't trying to be an app in a browser? But the ability to view messages as plain text.

Proton Mail is a no go because their LLMs poke all through your messages. I want something without AI bullshit.

I'd use Fastmail but they don't work with my VOIP mobile numbers and constantly engage in union busting so want something else.

I have a vice: I have two vices.
You may laugh once, two times or even thrices.
Me too, but only because I am ecstatic how smooth this is after penetration fluid and soft brushing, a but of hitting with a 2 lb hammer also... taps.
I adore the locking mechanism on this smol vice seriously.

in real life really, actually real role playing game.

LOL like nah, but its a thought to test skills in craft.
Rules?
Can only used upcycled elements given to me or personally made items, tools included.
Goal? A temporary work platform sufficient for a Boxed PC and desk setup, monitor and all, minimum 12 feet from average grade. I am at 10' with my current temporary ropes. :)

Its a long shot but Ill see how purist I could be...LOL It could at the very lead be entertaining.
So far, all upcycled items!
