It's also much harder to fact check videos. This may be to the benefit of those streaming.

Is it me or is autocorrect getting markedly worse? Seems to insist on words I don't use, wildly changes things.

I hate videos. I far prefer to read than be lectured to. And many people have really annoying voices.

It's funny but the last books my husband bought and read as his dementia grew worse, were "chick lit" in addition to the detective series he read. (When I met him he read every book about WWII and English history.)

Ilhan Omar’s home was raided today, weeks after border czar Tom Homan cited an “ongoing criminal investigation.” It reportedly involves immigration paperwork when she was a child. There is NOT an ongoing investigation of Homan taking $50,000 in an FBI bribery sting because Trump killed that probe.

Trump is so jealous ... but maybe SCOTUS would say it's okay for him to do it too?

Just as I will watch Tatiana Maslany, Toni Collette, or Melanie Lynskey in anything, I will now look Lola Petticrew. First in Furious and now in Tresspasses. Brilliant.

I'm not responding individually to people tonight. I'll just say: You cannot spend half of your time yelling On Here about Nobody Doing Anything and the other half saying that Anything That Happens Is Not Going To Change Anything.

My daughter has had quite a few kids from Ukraine in her 6th grade ELA class here in NYC. Some are sort of oblivious (I imagine their families keep it quiet) but she's had a few who are deeply sad. 11 year olds who miss their grandparents and worry about them.

My late FIL was an infamous gambler and bookie and went to jail and prison (with a case to SCOTUS) several times and I can't see that he did anything as bad as the gaming companies.

I think Kelly could get independents/old-time GOP to the polls for miltary and international rebuilding. That is a compelling need. And then Ossoff as VP to b=ring the fire and tackle domestic issues.

"The 2.25m barrels of diesel Putin offered Trump will have zero net impact on the world price of diesel. But accepting them will collapse the US-led sanctions regime on Russia—and align Trump with Putin against Ukraine's attacks on Russian energy production..." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Trump Is an Easy Mark for Putin
The president’s diesel deal sells out Ukraine, and does nothing for Americans.

I feel like there's a big overlap with former or current gamers and people who use AI. They like being part of a "thing" and are not necessarily credulous by nature. I avoid AI and try to find alternate verification for almost everything. But now AI makes even a simple search problematic.

I really like Murphy and I find it odd he's never talked about as a potential presidential candidate. But he's not a showboat. And we need good people in Congress.

Russian bot traffic has dropped to nearly 0 after Ukraine struck a Yandex data center in Vladimir, Russia
• Source Network: AS13238 YANDEX – Yandex LLC (Russian Federation)
• Traffic Breakdown: Prior to the drop, bot traffic accounted for roughly 99.6% of requests compared to 0.4% human traffic.
• Event Cause: The sudden plunge to zero on October 11, 2026, corresponds to a reported military/drone attack on Yandex's data center facility in Vladimir, Russia—marking the third reported attack on Yandex data infrastructure since October 8.
