Once had hair. An old fashioned term that we use -- groceries. I used it on the campaign. It's such an old fashioned term, but a beautiful term. Groceries. It says a bag with different things in it.

Few have ever consistently failed upward as much as Bari Weiss, so it makes sense that a nepobaby fascist billionaire is willing to pay her 100 million dollars to continue to do so.

@akrherz.bsky.social random question about the 1-min ASOS data: Is there a reason the drop-down menu only starts at 2000? I would have thought 1-min data would at least go back to the mid-90s upgrades but am I just being dumb/senile?

All kidding about this nonsense answer aside: The regime is asserting the power to murder without trial a boat full of people suspected of drug trafficking, who easily could have been intercepted and arrested instead. That is unconscionable and horrifying even assuming everyone aboard was guilty.

Studies repeatedly show that most people age out of "hardcore" crime by their late 30s and 40s. And nobody is "born to be" a criminal. Even Trump, who is a hardcore criminal who has not aged out of his illicit behavoir, was not born like this. I blame his parents.
