    My guess andrea-b is some sort of bot or AI something or other. And as far as Shat goes for a guy that can't act he has had a fabulous career as an actor. Good for him.

    My guess is that it was windy, and he was afraid of his comb over going up and over! (One time I was in the States, and it was at a sporting event, and the announcer said to "remover your hats" as the national song was played and they brought in the flag.)

    @Axtremus said in Beyond the antivaxx stuff MAHA is either banal or fake: The alternative would never! On that I have to agree. He should stick to food additives.

    Yeah, just because she doesn’t fuck you anymore doesn’t mean she’s abandoned the grand plan. She just considers phase 2 to have ended.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/us/politics/lindsey-halligan-investigation-florida-bar.html The actions of Ms. Halligan, who as a U.S. attorney brought criminal cases against President Trump’s enemies, are under review by the organization that licensed her to practice law. Lindsey Halligan, the former U.S. attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia who brought criminal cases against President Trump’s enemies over the objections of career prosecutors, is under investigation by Florida’s bar association, according to a letter the organization sent last month. The letter was addressed to the executive director of the nonprofit organization Campaign for Accountability, which had filed complaints in Florida and Virginia about Ms. Halligan’s actions. It noted that it had been closely monitoring reprimands Ms. Halligan had received from judges. “We already have an investigation pending,” the bar association said in its letter to the group. Ms. Halligan, who left the U.S. attorney’s office in January, was included on the letter, indicating that she was aware of the investigation.

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/siladityaray/2026/03/06/justice-department-releases-some-missing-epstein-files-that-include-allegations-against-trump/ The Justice Department released more Epstein files Thursday that include allegations made by a woman accusing President Donald Trump of sexually abusing her when she was a minor, one week after Democrats on the House Oversight Committee began investigating why these documents were withheld. President Donald Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing with regards to his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

    The Atlantic released an article yesterday morning about how Trump's aides said he's going to announce his support for Cornyn and ask (Paxton) to drop out. Until then the thought (and my Kalshi bet!) was that Paxton would win in a run-off since he'd suck up most of the 3rd candidate (Hunt)'s voters. Paxton is like Trump... scandals, impeached I think, maybe a felony or two, election sore loser and fraud believer... if Paxton were to beat Cornyn in the runoff, there's a higher chance the democrat Talarico could win, so the GOP would have to spend even more to win the seat, vs a cheaper and better odds win if it's Cornyn. Trump doesn't like to align with losers... at least not on purpose.

    @Mik said in Seems Keith Olbermann doesn't like anybody.: True enough. Must be a miserable existence. I've said it before, but the difference between being miserable and being depressed is that nobody enjoys being depressed.

    Yeah, I had one eye done, the left eye hasn't progressed far enough yet. Surprising since I had the right done in 2019. But I'm sure it will. The surgery is no big deal. The eyedrops after are a pain in the ass.

    I didn’t mean to imply that ‘don’t worry it can be refunded’ was the entirety of their argument. But it was important. Showing irreparable harm is required to get a preliminary injunction. The supposed ability to refund the cost of the tarrifs was key to saying the damage was reparable. (For large companies at least. Of course some smaller companies could claim they’d go out of business due to tariffs which would be irreparable despite the possibility of refunds but those companies probably didn’t have the money to sue anyway and probably weren’t plaintiffs in front of the court).

    Makes me glad I don't code anymore. But if I did I'd surely have been an early adopter.

    Good. My hope is the military intel is smarter than the average public Joe…aka they know how many bullets Iran has left. “Are you feeling lucky?”
