A conservative “centrist”.

That is incorrect.

I, too, want to live in a world where no one gives a damn about this shit, but that’s simply not the world we live in, and to pretend otherwise is foolishly naive. Bryon’s choices could affect Kristi Noem’s if his secrets were held over her head. (And I’d imagine they probably were, given his evident lack of discretion.)

It is what it is.

No doubt.

What’s interesting is Bibi’s use of the word ‘report’. Very clearly saying publicly that Donald is his bitch.

Thank you for moderating.

This is the way.

Our species has shown time and again throughout the eons that our very nature is the problem.

Not exactly accurate.

His choices compromised a highly-placed government official. His private life is and should be fodder for exposure.

Not into kink shaming myself (and frankly, I wish more people would safely indulge their kinks), but when your actions can (and probably did) compromise a government official, it’s news.

I think OP knows they can unscrew it.

That’s probably why it’s only ‘mildly’ infuriating.

What’s really sad is that the only ones who support a living wage en masse are the Greens.

You’ve got Bernie and Zohran who certainly do, and AOC may. Warren says she does, but it’s bullshit. The people with the power to actually do this are the ones saying no.

Same. I didn’t even worry about Linux until a year ago, and was willing to put up with the buggy dual boot for two months before wiping it. Luckily I got a new laptop last fall and it works perfectly on this one. I LOVE Mint and prefer it over Windows for nearly everything.

Yeah, if I didn’t need to use it I wouldn’t. I hate it.

It’s a good time to remind people that the current version of O&O ShutUp makes it super easy to delete or disable CoPilot and any files it is storing on your machine.

I made a video recently about some things you can do to improve your privacy as well if you’re stuck using Windows for whatever reason. (And for the TLDW crowd, I put chapters in the video so you don’t necessarily have to watch the whole thing either.)

Kind of a bummer that Dems couldn’t find this righteous energy when Joe Biden was accused of SA.

Very rude of Starmer to not place the UK’s face in the middle of Donald’s fist.

The only difference is packaging.

Donald is not doing anything that hasn’t already been policy for the long-term. He just doesn’t care about the veneer of plausible deniability as his predecessors did. I remember the response when they abducted Maduro, and hearing the words ‘unprecedented’ and ‘shocking’, and I thought… did these people just sleep through the War on Terror?

Profiting from his office? There’s a reason high level government officials regularly get hundreds of thousands of dollars to supposedly give speeches. (When in reality, they’re selling favors.) And that money you donate to the party? They can lend their campaigns cash at 20% interest and pay themselves back with your donations legally. If you want five minutes of the presidential candidate’s time at their national convention, it’s going to cost you at least a million, probably more now. And likely every single person with a federal security clearance and access to briefings is insider trading.

Yes, he’s a piece of shit. The others were shit wrapped in shiny foil.

I run a dual boot.

Love that it functions so well on my current PC, as my last one didn’t run Linux particularly well, and I love having the option to do anything private off-Windows.

Blaming anyone for a warehouse without proper fire suppression seems negligent.

Agreed on all points, but especially this one.

I hate that this doddering, brain-damaged old pedophile is setting something in motion that’s going to be creating negative consequences for the entire world long after he’s cold and dead.

Awful.

Wait.

No.

You mean sending out the big guns JD Vance didn’t tip it in Donald’s or Orban’s favor?

Based on what facts?

Dems lost in part because of their support of genocide, and Donald’s candidates have lost almost every election in 2025 and 2026, with most of those losses occurring in districts he won by double digits in 2024 regardless of whether it’s a red or blue state.

Seems to me there’s ample evidence out here that Americans care about those brown kids and are exercising the only realistic power they have to stop it: voting. And even better, AIPAC affiliation is becoming a litmus test for the 2026 elections.

The US Government

The US taxpayer.

Donald doesn’t mind running up other people’s credit cards.
