Doge was not a "missed opportunity." It did *exactly what it set out to do* - slash and burn programs deemed inconvenient, soyjak, "too gay," any any mechanism that was within reach that might slow down "project 2025" with maximal trauma inflicted on the federal workforce & left-leaning pops

The Heritage Apple Corps have found trees in central Oregon that are genetic matches for some of the rare "lost" apple varieties we find in the islands. With more sampling, both here and there, we hope to be able to properly identify these varieties and bring them back into production.

These 130-year-old Central Oregon pioneer apple trees are still bearing fruit
Apple trees planted by Central Oregon's first homesteaders 130 years ago are still producing fruit, and some varieties are so rare that DNA tests came back as unique.

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

Hey @thoc.bsky.social I don't know if you have any input on this, or if it's all controlled by Airwave, but I was listening to your show and got an ad for "Anthropic: the Human Benefit Company." Claude AI. I can't imagine you're jazzed to have your podcast associated with that.

One thing I don't think I like is when people won't distinguish between being apathetic about a group of people being harmed, and actively hating them and wanting to harm them, because they think the first one is "not as bad" and "lets them off the hook". That's how most harm in the world is caused

It's very easy to wear a suit and tie in any major city, even if the aesthetic has mostly disappeared from daily life, because there are people outside wearing pink tutus with Army boots. As usual, your liberation is connected to other people's liberation.
Bobby Mars on Twitter writes: "If you wear a collared shirt and nice shoes out to the bar in the rust belt, multiple people will ask you if you just came from a wedding. Aesthetic standards for men’s attire are horrendously low"

“To me, 9/11 has become representative of in America, paranoia, death, destruction, revenge, greed. Even our younger generations laugh at it, because they are desensitized not just to the violence of that day, but the overwhelming violence America committed abroad in its wake.”

I'm of the view that if stuff like this weren't a big deal, then the Israelis wouldn't be throwing an apoplectic fit about it, but it is funny that the substance of Andy Burnham's Guardian oped is effectively, "My government is taking bold steps: Recognising international law and following it."

Sharing from a friend, a passage from the Leveson Inquiry regarding the British actor Denholm Elliott, who died of AIDS in 1992. Three years after her death, the News of the World journalist Paul McMullan did the following to his daughter—neither a celebrity nor even someone of public interest.
BROOKE GLADSTONE:
The Inquiry brought up the case of Denholm Elliott's daughter -
PAUL McMULLAN:
Oh, yeah -
BROOKE GLADSTONE:
- which is one case that you truly do regret.
PAUL McMULLAN:
I do, yeah. After Denholm died, she hit rock bottom, was allegedly doing methadone. And although she had, you know, the half-million-pound flat that Denholm had bought her, she didn't have any money to get her ten-pound bag in the morning. So she'd get up and go begging at the tube station.
Here was a young girl crying out to be helped, and she met a police officer who didn't help her but rang up the News of the World and asked for money because he couldn't believe that this is the same girl who'd walked down the red carpet behind Eddie Murphy with Denholm Elliott, you know.BROOKE GLADSTONE:
And you offered her 50 pounds -
PAUL MCMULLAN:
Yeah.
BROOKE GLADSTONE:
- if she would come to your place and have sex. So you led her into prostitution, which she wasn't in that space for.
PAUL McMULLAN:
No, indeed. But she was in such a bad place that someone offering her 50 pounds for sex. I mean, that's five bags.BROOKE GLADSTONE:
So how do you justify that? Yes, she was a drug addict, yes, she was begging. Why push her that extra step? Why take pictures of her topless?
PAUL McMULLAN:
I was keen. It was in my first year. I wanted to impress Piers Morgan, who was my boss at the time, and just wanted to say, not only have I caught this girl begging, but l've got pictures of her topless and I've got her offering me sex for 50 quid. How great am I?
BROOKE GLADSTONE:
This is a pretty dehumanizing enterprise, not just for Jennifer Elliott, but for you, yourself.
PAUL McMULLAN:
Yeah, that's why I feel terrible about it, not just 'cause she killed herself afterwards, but I, I actually liked her as a person.

It is a heartbreaking tragedy that the women & girls of Afghanistan are being tossed aside as collateral damage, but it's no less tragic than videos of Gazan children collecting the remnants of their mothers & sisters in plastic bags, and our leaders acclimated to that development quite capably.

The defining aspect of Lindsey Graham’s political career was a murderous hatred of Muslims & Arabs so pure and unchastened that he loudly and repeatedly celebrated their deaths in public, because he did not view them as human. And if you think it’s impolitic to acknowledge this, then neither do you.

Mainstream Respectable opinion is that people joking about a bad person's death represents a culture of cruelty, but really it represents a culture of impunity. It's a coping mechanism for watching someone do evil their whole life and never seeing consequences

In regard to the LAPD murdering a homeowner’s dog, white people (including myself) should keep this energy when any black person is killed by the police. The police have killed 553 this year SO FAR. Black people are 2.8x times more likely to be killed by the police than white people.
