As a resident of Saskatchewan Canada who finds themselves in need of disability benefits again, I'm thoroughly disgusted to note that benefits aren't even $1200CAN/month, and by the time 725 rent and your bills are considered, you have a whopping $200 for food and clothing.
The "news" about Trump's war was fully expected. It you study WWII, he's following Hitler's playbook to a "T". Nobody should have been surprised.

This whole mess would have been avoided if the US population weren't something like #45 on the "education level" lists for the globe.

Damn but I'm tired of seeing crap about that pedophile south of the border who started a fucking WAR to distract from the fact he raped little girls...

I feel cold this morning; just a general chill to the air in here. Hope I'm not coming down with something...

This past day or two has been productive - I have a new "SchemaHostName" verb added to the system for resource locations (e.g. produces "msobkow.github.io" for my schemas.) I have used it to identify #$LOWER SchemaHostName$-hosted as the target repository for Nexus3 deployments.

Under no circumstances does the US War Powers Act grant a sitting president the right to unilaterally declare war. The act reserves that right for Congress to decide.

No, thou definitely shalt not! But given the widespread rumours he's a pedophile rapist, I don't think he cares.

We at the People's Anti-Fascist League of Judea, or PAFLOJ, welcome you to our month-end convention. As you are well aware, fascism abounds in modern society, particular overseas in the formerly great states of America, Russia, Israel, and to some degree, China.

Exactly. It isn't about politics - at ALL. The only reason it was EVER political is several politicians are GUILTY of the crimes in those files...
It does not matter if anyone in the Epstein Files is Republican or Democrat. Left or Right. Liberal or Conservative.

Pedophilia is the epitome of absolute disgust.

They all need to see justice.

Whataboutism and defending them says an awful lot about you and your morals.

The DOJ dumped millions of Epstein files and called it transparency, but key FBI interviews naming Trump in abuse allegations were missing. If evidence about a sitting president is being withheld, that’s not transparency that’s a cover up.

Last evening/this morning and the previous same time period were very productive. Read on for the recent three change logs to the cfsecjpa module/jar:

Mark's Code Fractal is the latest name for a pet project/idea I've worked on since the late '90s, around the era of Java JDK 1.6. It is something I obviously believe in, and it has come a long way over the years of development.

I'm currently using 2.13 to produce 3.1's code.

I think this is kind of amusing considering how long Musk has been bragging about FSD for Teslas coming "real soon now."

Looks like the UK just ate his lunch...

I'd have to agree. And I think the God of the Old Testament was vengeful enough agree that the French Revolution showed the whole world how to REALLY solve the problem...

But the REAL Jesus would have us try to reform the billionaires. I don't think that is very likely.
Call me crazy, but I don’t think we should cede control of the world to fascist child rapists high on ketamine.

I think it's important to remember that the United States is only ONE country in the world, one which exerts undue influence and interference in far too many other nations through their financial support, conspiracy theories, and propaganda sites.

It MUST stop. Now.

Listening to a Turkish group named "Neredesin Sen" and their latest album. It's number one in my recommends from Quobuz, and I'm not surprised - it's a beautiful sounding album from a VERY talented group.

I don't understand a word of it, but I'm loving the vibe and plan on listening to the rest.

Donald Trump’s focus on the economy in his state of the union address led him to repeat numerous false claims he’s made in the past. Here are some of the main ones.

Excellent! My CPP deposit is in; I go shopping in the morning after a doctor's appointment on my way home. I also have to swing by the bank to withdraw some money to pay personal debts. But it's all good and expected. 👍

You know, Canada is much older than 14, so I'm surprised the Pumpkin Fuhrer is so interested in raping my home country like he did those poor little girls...

On a much lighter note, I listened to this terrific album from a new funky/rocky blues artist and enjoyed it _thoroughly_!

Nice! I get actual _news_ feeds here, unlike Crackbook (Canuck here. Zuck has been "censoring" Canadians for _years_ now in preparation for Drumpf's planned attacks so we can't speak out against it.)
February 25, 2026 at 7:28 AM
Well, I've abandoned Facebook (finally) after they decided to start censoring my posts against the Pedophile Fuhrer as "hate speech." Of course I hate child rapists...
