  • Musk threatens to fire federal employees who leak information during DOGE purge
  • Dunno.

    But I did some digging into the EO, and the USDS (United States DOGE Service) was a hack by renaming from United States Digital Service. It is under the USDS that they created the U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization. The EO also states that there is to be an administrator appointed by the White House that reports to the chief of staff. It sounds like to me that they are utilizing loopholes in the constitution/law to sidestep Congress.

  • Musk threatens to fire federal employees who leak information during DOGE purge
  • He has an entire department that was created specifically for him to do shit like this.

    More like a tip.

  • Female pilot in crash Trump blamed on DEI was top 20% Army cadet
  • It’s sleight of hand. Distract people with some baseless accusation that’ll go nowhere, while hiding the true disaster of bad policy making. They’ve been doing this for years.

  • Let’s be honest, this is how cats act normally.

  • Brett Kavanaugh has very bad news for Donald Trump

    Superman & Lois: Am I the Only One?

    I am watching the series, and i can’t help but feel like both actors for Superman and Lois are CGI created. Maybe it’s me, or the lighting of the scenes, but I’m really feeling the uncanny valley with this show. Anybody else?

    First Thanksgiving in my new home

    Last year I moved into a townhome after my wife and I separated. Her and my kids went to Ohio to spend Thanksgiving with her side of the family (it’s something we’d always done even as a family). I was supposed to go to Puerto Rico last Thanksgiving, but that didn’t work out. So I ended up at a friend’s house with their family.

    Fast forward to this year, and I now have my own home. My youngest decided that he didn’t want me to be alone for the holiday, so he opted to stay with me instead of going up to Ohio with his mom and brother. He also asked me to cook ham, sweet corn, and mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving dinner. I got the smallest spiral-cut glazed ham I could find, and cooked up a can of sweet corn, and made mashed potatoes from a box. I had never done this before because in Ohio there was always the in-group of family that took care of cooking, and I wasn’t part of that group.

    My youngest said it was the best meal he had in a long time. He kept going back for more and more ham. As I was cleaning up, he commented how sad he’s going to be when we run out of the ham. His only criticisms were that the potatoes were a little plain in comparison to everything else, and that there needed to be a bitter side to offset the sweetness of everything else. Very high praise coming from him, as he’s still in the picky phase with his eating.

    Now I sit waiting for the dishes to finish the wash cycle, while my kid is playing some Roblox game and my dog is laying beside him drifting off to sleep (she got her share of ham too).

    Today was a really good day, and it would have been a shame not to share it with somebody.

    Happy Thanksgiving, y’all.

    Netflix and Thrill!

    The lights are off, folded laundry at my feet, dog in my lap, my youngest at the end of the couch asleep, and my oldest tucked in under his blanket watching his first boxing matches, as we wait for the next fight on Netflix.

    Alarm clocks would be more effective if the sound was someone puking or gagging.

    I always hit snooze on my alarm clock, but I jump right out of bed if I hear someone puking or gagging (e.g., kids or my dog).

    Question about TestFlight

    Do the devs get the crash logs from beta Mlem?

    A Social Etiquette Question

    Alright, so my son is friends with a kid at his school, and through this I met his mother. She is a nice woman, who is attractive and friendly. What I do know about her is that she and her husband are separated and/or divorced. I do not know if she is seeing anybody.

    I have an unsuccessful history of assuming things with women who are nice to me; i.e., I often confuse being nice with them showing a romantic interest, and that not being the case. Given that my son and her son are best friends, I do not want to make this mistake and make things awkward for anybody. Given my unsuccessful history of reading social cues, I want to be careful in how I interact with her.

    I feel like I have three choices right now: I could continue my current course of action, and interact with her when my son and her son get together; I could text her and try to strike up a conversation out of the blue; or I could add her as a Facebook friend and from that angle try to strike up conversation.

    I don’t necessarily want to go the “do nothing and hope it works out” approach, but I am not sure if I would make her uncomfortable by being too direct. I’m kind of leaning toward the Facebook option, but I am curious if I should ask her if she’s ok with me requesting to be her friend (and possibly sparking a conversation that way, but letting her know it’s okay to say no if she’s not comfortable with it).

    And before anybody says it, yes I’m aware I’m probably overthinking it. 😊

    It’s officially official!

    As of 10:15am EST, I am no longer married. From what I’ve heard from other divorcees, my ex wife and I have had a unicorn of a separation; in that we still get along and work together for our kids. Regardless of how frictionless the process has gone, it’s still a relief to put that chapter to rest.

    While psychosis itself is not directly contagious, the spread of psychological symptoms and behaviors within groups… demonstrates the profound impact of psychological contagions…

    The title is a quote from https://www.psychiatrist.com/news/can-psychosis-be-contagious/

    It’s a pandemic that nobody is talking about.

    Paint Color ideas for Living Room

    If there is a better community to ask, I’d be happy to post there. I am looking for ideas for a color to paint my living room, based on my accent colors.

    !

    It might be hard to tell from the photo, but the walls are a light grey. And I’m going for a farmhouse/country feel.

    Thanks!

    A huge shout out to our Mlem developers!

    I just wanted to test the posting fix in 2.0 (89), and at the same time give a huge shout out to the people who are making all of this possible. You all are a quiet and sneaky bunch, but your hard work does not go unnoticed.

    The Outbursts of Everett True. Hey, Mr. Butcher, Come Back Here / Condo. (Date Unknown)

    Two panel comic strip shows Everett True in a butcher shop, after receiving his parcel he beckons the butcher, when the butcher returns True pushes his head down to the counter so he can get a closer look at the change he has left after the transaction. True asks the butcher if, perhaps, he shouldn't "wrap up the change, too?" He complains that "it's all smeared over with blood and grease" and tells him to "Clean it off!!!"

    The Outbursts of Everett True (1907)

    I was looking around for some specific comics, when I ran across an archived version of the 1907 book titled The Outbursts of Everett True. I was going to link directly to the PDF, but thought some people might like the source page better.

    ISO: Below-Knee Cargo Shots with Gusset

    I have been looking for below-knee cargo shorts that have a gusset. Every short I buy inevitably rips in the crotch, and I feel a gusset would protect against that.

    I’ve seen someone in public wearing a gusseted below-knee pair of shorts, and I regret not asking where they got them (though guys don’t typically talk fashion).
