You’ve clearly never been attacked by one. Angry little shits.
UPDATE: In its latest status report, DOJ says that three of the five migrant children discussed in his previous status report have now been returned to ORR custody. Drew Ensign says that he'll file another status report tomorrow when the two remaining children are in ORR custody.
It was. That’s why Great Northern built it out - was useful for both freight and passenger. Glacier wouldn’t be what it is without GN and that line.
I've seen worse candidates for Last Tweet.
That’s only a problem if they expose him to sunlight.
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
MOAR. SUGAR.
What a country.
unaccompanied. children.
To be able to say things like this with a straight face, you have to know with certainty that you are talking to babies
“You’re back early.” “Couch is haunted.”
Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑
holy shit JB 😅
This feels significant. Next year, V-Dem, the world's premier index of liberal democracy, may downgrade the US to the electoral autocracy category. www.cbc.ca/news/world/t...
Again, and I cannot say this enough, these people are fucking **weird** and we need to hammer on how fucking weird the right is being all the damn time
New Hampshire: “Live Free and Die.”
In. Sane.
Whenever I’m facing a moral dilemma, I think of the advice my father gave me. “Never leave a paper trail,” he’d say, tapping the glass partition between us for emphasis.
Happy same birthday weekend!
Los Angeles: share this. Fuck ICE.
Great Falls - so more north central. It’s a city that thinks like a town (like Kalispell), vs. Whitefish or Missoula that feel like towns that think like cities (and tend to be very blue).
Lastly - there’s a car around the corner from my parents’ place that makes me laugh. He has a generic “Don’t tread on me” plate that he has bolted his Montana plate to the bottom of. So it has two plates hanging down the front. It’s silly. So he’s okay with the man treading on him a little bit.
Also, there are so many “Back the Blue” signs here. Were the police really so oppressed that they need hugs?
Every time I come home to Montana it reminds me why I love this place… (it’s gorgeous) while also reminding me why I can’t live here anymore (so many right wing nutters).
A true legend is gone. #RIP @cbsnews.com www.cbsnews.com/news/mark-kn...
R.E.M. “pushed the boundaries” of alternative rock Herbie Hancock “pushed the boundaries” of jazz Trump & RFK Jr. are “destroying public health & will be responsible for killing people” What is journalism, anyway? 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Ouch…
The Food and Drug Administration approved the next round of COVID-19 vaccines, but they come with restrictions. NPR wants to know your questions about the new guidance.
When he does pass and is buried, they’re going to have to make it locked away somewhere to keep everyone from urinating and defecating all over it.
Monsters
If they were literally trying to destroy the human race what would they be doing differently
The best part of being brothers.
"Weekend at Bernie's" takes place during the Labor Day weekend.
It's worse than ever in L.A. and it feels like the rest of America doesn't care. It will never not feel like insult upon grevious injury
Three random pictures that say “Montana” to me.
[explaining] well I KNOW I was more enthusiastic about museums last year, but I am a lot more tired this year because the government is a lot more fascist this year
Remember how if a kid choked on a little plastic toy they used to stop selling the toy
I hope that when RFK Jr dies someday, someone has been hired and trained to capture whatever crawls out of the body, so that it doesn't find a new host
Chicago keeping art alive:
Thank you!
Perhaps you are unmoved by Gov Gav’s shittiness toward trans people? Well, fear not! There are so many other ways he’s terrible!
ChatGPT encouraged Adam Raine’s suicidal thoughts. His family’s lawyer says OpenAI knew it was broken
But by far and away, the biggest priority for a Heritage Foundation-captured CDC is going to be using the agency's legal frameworks for access to medical data, and weaponizing them to control women. *Most* of the Project 2025 plan for CDC is a witch hunt against abortion on an unprecedented scale.
regardless of what happens to the tariffs, they're doomed from the start because the average conservative holds all three of these positions at once: — virtue signals about supporting US manufacturing — against increasing the minimum wage — buys foreign imports because they're cheap
lol close but no cigar
This is one of the strangest things I've ever read, I'm not even sure what it's about. Is any of this worth burning billions of dollars for? Is this really anything truly remarkable? Is this person really what anyone would call "a tech skeptic" in any meaningful sense of the word?
Re: the tariff verdict - he’s going to be mad for the entire holiday weekend.
Hope SCOTUS enjoys being treated like Trump’s lapdog

“Tariffs are the best tool to protect our workers.” What an idiot.
“I’m just following orders.”
Not gonna vote for him for dog catcher much less president so you all better find someone who isn't a heartless asshole
Same. I swear I never knew anyone with a birthday in this part of August.
Thanks. He was very photogenic.
"Her patient had signs of what could be a cancer or could be an unusual infection — diagnoses that would require completely different treatment. Ordinarily, she would confirm an infection after sending a sample to the CDC for testing ...the CDC no longer has the capacity to do that"

My Volvo dealer started doing that. 🙁

August always brings a collection of anniversaries for me… 21 years since I left Microsoft for Winternals. 15 years! since I started at Directions on Microsoft. 10 years since my divorce. Oh, and 52 years of orbiting the sun.
I think we need more pens and paper and less AI agents
Yesterday was the 11th anniversary of the biggest scandal of the Obama administration.
Pro-life my ass.
It just keeps getting better.
Depends on the province, apparently.
Them: “So where in Montana are you from?” Me: “The flat part.”
This is good: With Trump/RFK destroying CDC, JB Pritzker's officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines from manufacturers and distributing them in-state themselves, source tells me. Dem govs must step up and fill the void. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
No notes
They are so low.
LLMs as cognitive lawn darts
Trump distracts to deceive. When it comes to the economy, Trump doesn’t want you to know the truth: our failing labor force & rising unemployment is *his* fault. Fmr. Sec. of Labor @juliesulabor.bsky.social talks Trump’s attacks on the independence of the Fed & the BLS. youtu.be/7WMea-UkakE?...
What a cursed sentence (gift link) “The A.I. companies selected to oversee the program would have a strong financial incentive to deny claims. Medicare plans to pay them a share of the savings generated from rejections.”
the very definition of a Summer Time Patriot
credit where it's due, Newsom finally said the thing in a way that got it covered the way we're trying to get it covered!
Fscking criminal
While ICE agents can note in their database if someone they’ve investigated turns out to be a citizen, they are not required to do so. As a result, records are often wrong and left uncorrected even after agents have been told of a mistake. (Published March 2025)

#ThreeBirdThursday is a thing? OK, here are three adorable bufflehead ducklings #birds
Whether it's Barack Obama asking for dijon mustard or RFK Jr. asking for a vaccine ban that will kill hundreds of thousands of Americans, there have been unusual requests on both sides of the aisle.
