The real legacy of 9/11 is what we see happening in the US right now. Organizations purportedly formed to combat terrorism are being used by a demented sociopathic president to terrorize the citizens of the US, and turn the nation into a white supremacist dictatorship.

An under-the-radar part of the Paramount/Warner Bros merger is that the merged company would be 49.5% owned by the sovereign wealth funds of Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, and Qatar. Somehow this hasn't raised the ire of those who most fear Sharia law. prospect.org/2026/07/21/a...

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF. This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy. Every member of Congress must vote NO.

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”

The movie "The Odyssey" is great. But if this was 1992, we would all be listening to the Bryan Adams power ballad hit "Making My Way to You (love theme from "The Odyssey")

It’s so funny that conservatives hated The Odyssey because a Black woman and trans man were cast in it cause it’s kinda made for them. Focus on traditional masculinity, civilization falling because of men’s moral failings, excellent foreigners, women as vengeful, liars, witches and wives.

Earlier tonight I upgraded the x6200 to the latest firmware and plugged it into the PC and made an FT8 contact. 5 watts, 800+ miles. Whats more impressive is my antenna is currently NOT resonant on 40M, like the G90, the x6200 is an excellent tuner with a radio attached to it. #hamradio

I used to do respiratory disease surveillance as an epidemiologist for the Army. Trainees at Basic come from all over the country, bringing local germs with them. They live, train and sleep in close quarters, under huge physical strain. Training camps are famous as outbreak hotspots. 1/2

Last night I decided to watch "Field of Dreams", I needed an escape. Does anyone else remember that one of the pivotal scenes in the movie revolves around trying to ban books? It was jarring to have current events showing up in a feel good movie from 1989. If only we had stopped the fascists.

I was worried that on Linux scanning/printing would be a hassle. Nope, was just a click and done. The best experience with a scanner/printer I ever had. Compared to before where I had to install the printer's software to work with it, and get pop up ads I had to then delete.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.
Screenshot of an X.com post by The Associated Press (@AP) stating that dozens of immigrant families protested for better treatment behind fences at a Texas detention facility, where a 5-year-old Ecuadorian boy and his father were sent after being detained in Minnesota. Below is a video thumbnail showing a crowd gathered outdoors along a fenced walkway; many people wear bright blue or red outerwear, and some hold signs.
