$8 mil accounting error found "It took some more tooth-pulling (and several terse answers from Towey) for Rinck to get a somewhat clarifying explanation. Basically the money looked like it was missing because of a one-time “transactional entry error in our financial accounting system,” Towey said."

Has anyone reported on why the Trump channel was set up on YouTube instead of Rumble? I can guess, but it seems like an obvious question that could trigger an interesting response.

I don't know where I first saw this today, but it seems strange that this DOJ is pursuing criminal charges against this company. Seems they must have gotten crosswise with Putin and Trump or else the Cali Central District DA office is about to be reined in. www.justice.gov/usao-cdca/pr...

Has Darline Lettie Graham Nordone changed her name or is she using Darline Graham as a political stage name? Maybe she's an early adopter of requiring the name on her birth certificate for government purposes.

I shopped at Costco around Seattle today. Walked into the produce section with all the bagged salads, proudly labeled Taylor Farms. I wonder how well they are selling? Of course the ones I see don't have Iceberg lettuce. Either romaine or cabbage.

I thought it was s really morbid workplace "humor" that had people "write the euthanasia cards at work". It took me a minute to figure out that they meant they do pet euthansia.

They had already found a higher recidivism rate for this group than other convicts. I wonder if there's a similar study for others that have been pardoned. Does the pardon incentivise future crime?

This old quote from Balloon Juice is getting paraphrased for a new audience.
Davis X. Machina 
“The salient fact of American politics is that there are fifty to seventy million voters each of who will volunteer to live, with his family, in a cardboard box under an overpass, and cook sparrows on an old curtain rod, if someone would only guarantee that the black, gay, Hispanic, liberal, whatever, in the next box over doesn’t even have a curtain rod, or a sparrow to put on it.”

With all the horrors around us, talking up a book seems...weird. But I have a book coming and it is, I believe, an important one—one hope help persuade the vaccine hesitant (those who've heard the noise but aren't yet consumed by anti-vax BS). Anyway, here's the latest iteration of the US cover:
The front cover of A Pox on Fools: The True Believers, Grifters, and Cynics Who Convinced Us to Reject Vaccines." The cover shows a black circle with the title and the author's name (mine!) in white. The bottom right of the circle is indented, pushed by the needle of a pre-WW2 syringe, held in someone's left hand. In the space between the hand and the spine of the book, there's a blurb by geneticist, author, and broadcaster Adam Rutherford: "Brimming with righteous anger, this book should infuriate you for all the right reasons, and arm you to take on the grifters and their war against science."
