Is any house really a home if you don’t have a lightly used yoni steam chair?

A bright pink velveteen chair with a hole cut in the middle of its seat. There’s clearly a sweaty ass-print visible around the hole.

Description
paid 1200 for it. literally used a couple of times. perfect for business owners or even cute for at home. pretty big chair! will include the robe and seat cushion and steamer as well

Do I want military bases to have redundancy in case of attack? Yes! This is just cheaping out on grid resiliency and calling it security

The Hill article “7 takeaways from Hegseth's address to officers: Warfare's future, faith and a new base”

Under Fortress, which stands for “Federal Operations for Resilience, Troop Resources, Energy Supply and Survivability,” every major military installation in America would generate its own power independent of the civilian grid, according to Hegseth

Shiloh the husky x shepherd screams for freedom while trapped in the horror that is his bedroom from behind a glass slider. Next to the door are tangerine and giant bird of paradise plants, giving it a California vibe

NEW: DHS's Inspector General releases a scathing report about the Everglades detention camp known as "Alligator Alcatraz." The OIG finds that the now-closed camp, violated multiple ICE standards. The OIG also confirms detainees were punished with placement in a metal cage in the Florida heat.🧵

OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL
U.S. Department of Homeland Security
Staff also reported that time spent in the small metal enclosures is closely monitored, and
detainees are not locked in, even though we observed locking mechanisms on the enclosures.
Figures 11 and 12. Small Metal Enclosures; Observed January 21, 2026

Underneath is a picture of a metal cage that is 4 feet 3 inches wide by 4 feet 3 inches long, and 7 feet 9 inches high. The cage itself is placed on a tiny spot of fake turf, and then surrounded by another chainlink fence with razor wire on top. The cage is covered by a roof, but it's entirely exposed to the outside otherwise, meaning mosquitos and no air conditioning.

Looks like we’re using Gitmo to imprison immigrants again. This is an ICE charter airline owned by ICE’s flight broker using the callsign they use for all their ICE flights.

Across tech, the common message everyone I know is hearing is "Sit down, shut up and ship code. You are lucky to be employed at all." I am sure it will all be solved when Salesforce buys Pinkerton and rebrands it as a "Human as a Service" (HaaS) platform

I think George Miller is the best at integrating action and story across the entirety of a film; at the level of character growth and moving the plot forward, it's Spielberg, no question. For pure action, I don't think Ridley Scott gets enough credit - Duellists, Alien, Gladiator, Black Hawk Down

Not to beat up on Douthat even more, but I'll just say: it has never, in all of post-war American history, been more crystal clear exactly who your enemy should be. Never. If it's not obvious to you, you are morally & intellectually defective.

I actually directed this film. We shot several scenes of cats licking buttholes, but I took them all out of the final cut because young audiences don't like butthole stuff anymore.
