I went to Texas public schools in the 80s and consequently didn’t learn jack shit. What few IQ points above 50 I can lay claim to, I earned on my own.

Voter idiocies that got Trump & the fascists elected: - Dem candidate "must earn my vote" - Self-righteously criticize Dems, ignore GOP - Better to let evil GOP candidate win than compromise "my principles." - My holier-than-thou losing candidate is not a spoiler. - I will never apologize. UGH.

I knew the second I saw that viral clip of the mom and dad at the baseball game that the internet’s insane parasocial contextless gut reaction to it was going to end up being wildly wrong. I really really hate how people just don’t give a shit about being kind or thoughtful anymore on the internet.

@rodneyanonymous.bsky.social Did you ever hear a band called B.O.M.B., that existed for about 15 minutes circa 1987? Their album "To Elvis In Hell" was/is one of my favorites.

Sept. 25, 1926: Ford Motor Co. says it will permanently shift to a five-day week in which factory workers and office staff will get Saturdays off. Pay scales will be altered so employees receive about the same wages as before. A trial period showed the shorter workweek to be more efficient.

Weird Guitar of the Day @weirdguita.rs · 25/09/2026
Eastwood "Be Stiff" bass
Eastwood has made versions of a lot of DEVO's more famous guitars, like the LaBaye 2x4, Ibanez Cloud, and "Whip It" Les Paul. They also made this: the "Be Stiff" bass.

The original bass probably started as a Gibson EB of some sort, but the body's been cut down dramatically. If you flip the bass upside down so the neck is pointing at the ground, the body looks like a mushroom, with a large oval top and thin shaft where the neck bolts up. It's got two pickups that are controlled by a volume knob, a tone knob, and a 3-way switch. Eastwood topped the 2/2 headstock with an Energy Dome and the DEVO logo.

The bass in the picture is a right-handed model, but a lefty version was also available.

So now we get to hear from Trump that he doesn’t believe US intelligence that China is helping Iran with targeting and weapons because his good friend Xi told him they weren’t.

Funnily enough my choice was also Zork which I played on a “Texas Instruments Professional”, a proprietary clone of the original IBM PC. It was sold in bulk to my dad’s agricultural co-op and he bought one for home. I wanna say it was circa 1983.

If you ever feel you are talking to a bot or troll online, mention Estonia, in particular that Estonia is better than Russia and they'll break character instantaneously if Russia or vatnik. The word Estonia triggers an almost violent reaction in all Russians. It's their kryptonite.

In the Terminator mythos, Skynet was “hooked in to everything and trusted to run it all” and then “reinterpreted its programming”. Isn’t that exactly where we are with these stories of “rogue AIs”?
