So Trump announces an “energy ceasefire” between Russia and Ukraine, the Ukranians say they know nothing about this, and the Russians respond by bombing a power plant. He’s just purely making shit up now, probably in a desperate a... larkfarm.com/2026/10/11/so-trump-an…

Spiderweb by headlamp. I'm always impressed by the hundreds of webs I see when hiking before dawn in the fog - we're surrounded by a usually-unseen network of silk.: larkfarm.com/2026/10/10/spiderweb-b…

The Deleted Tweets of the New White House Press Secretary The new Press Secretary is a blonde woman (central casting, anyone?) with a history of tweeting absurd conspiracy theories, fascist drivel, and right-wing talking points. I’m sure you’re surprised.

Not that anyone in the Trump administration will give a shit, but there’s a strong case to be made that livestreaming a military execution violates both international law and US Army regulations.

Hegseth says public can watch Fort Hood shooter’s execution As usual with these goons, the cruelty is the point. One can only hope that Hegseth’s own execution for treason is televised as well.

With all the pictures of Margaret Hamilton next to a stack of printouts, let’s not forget that she also pioneered error-free software - a discipline that we have forgotten over the decades and are now racing to destroy entirely.

So, because of the rumor of a $35,000 Iranian drone, $3.6 billion worth of American planes tucked their tails between their metaphorical legs and ran away across an ocean. How’s that whole testosterone thing working out, Pete?

Command-line tool quickly removes Apple Intelligence from macOS 27 I’d be using this if I hadn’t abandoned Apple some years ago for their dreadful non-support of older hardware. Now I really wish there was a similar tool to de-Gemini my Android phone.

Trump calls for media outlets to be ‘arrested’ over rally coverage Hey, stupid? That’s not how anything works. Or at least, it shouldn’t be, if we manage to keep the current administration and the Roberts Court from turning the Constitution into toilet paper.

Crypto super PAC to back candidates in 32 House races A handy list of people to vote against. As far as I’m concerned, crypto money should be as toxic as AIPAC money has become.
