The ads don't "brag about America", however useless that sounds to me. They brag about the President and warn against his political critics and opponents.

This is the danger of having "law enforcement agents" dressed in masks and second-hand tactical gear, with no ID. Who can tell them from criminals or terrorists?

If you’re MAGA, do your best to enjoy the next two years. Because you will spend the remainder of your life looking back and realizing how you crushed your own reputation, and how you will never have power again. Two years seems like a long time, it isn’t when you look in the rear view mirror.

Finding romance with someone who’s unplugged is one of the primary reasons book lovers search for other book lovers. Now, there are specialized dating apps such as Readme and speed-dating and singles events at bookstores.

Bookstores know it. So does a new dating app. It’s hot to be a reader.

Literary interests are a green flag for those looking for a partner with curiosity and communication skills — or just the ability to put down the phone.

Great moments in Scottish engineering history: James Watt tries to work out how his phone attaches to his selfie stick.

Statue of James Watt. In his right hand he holds a telescopic stick with a frame at the top; in his left he holds a flat object about the size of a large smartphone. He is scowling at the possibly-not-a-smartphone as if he is tempted to yeet it into the sea. On that basis, it probably _is_ a phone.

"These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence." –@michaeldweiss.bsky.social

Screenshot of a quote-tweet by @michaeldweiss dated 27 Sep 2026. The original tweet is from "Sigal Chattah" (@Chattah4Nevada), and reads "Love is in the air [two heart emojis] Congrats [champagne emoji] to our amazing @AlinaHabba & @turhanmildoin [three emojis showing the Hamsa, a blue hand with an eye in it]." That text appears above a picture showing Kash Patel, Alina Habba, and others at a wedding ceremony. In his quote-tweet, Michael Weiss writes: "Why, that’s Ali Abdelaziz is on the far left. Manages a lot of Russian, Belarusian and Chechen MMA fighters including Khamzat Chimaev, who is close to Kadyrov. Abdelaziz was an FBI informant until the Bureau dropped him because they suspected he was a double agent. Looks like Ka$h (far right) has forgiven and forgotten. These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence."

5) there is a more logical explanation: lots of cheaper ACA plans have very high deductible and copays, so that you’d still avoid getting health care unless or until your seriously needed it. People choose these plans either because they think they’re healthy and won’t need it, or can’t afford it.
