“Stay healthy. Be kind" - Eric Boehlert

The president and his Silicon Valley oligarch pals want to bring back the bad old “company towns” of yesteryear with a fresh coat of modern cryptofascist varnish.

The President of the United States is a lunatic.
Worse, people who are not lunatics refuse to do anything about it.
Worse still, way too many press people are pretending he's not a lunatic.

As a lake I don’t have much use for mapping apps except when I verify that Big Ass Lake really does exist.
But I will now use a different one.

Everyday someone asks me how they can help me.

My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

As a lawyer, I spend my days fighting for democracy in court. But as the founder of Democracy Docket it's my job to explain what is happening in the elections to everyone. That is why I am excited to do this AMA at 10 a.m. ET on Aug. 25. www.reddit.com/r/DemocracyD...

And you definitely don't want to use a high-powered 532nm green laser, because it can permanently burn and disable digital camera CMOS or CCD sensors. Green light is absorbed at a very high efficiency by these electronic sensors, meaning concentrated beams easily melt or overload the pixel array.

Food companies wanted deregulation. Now there are dozens of recalls across the country.

Mining companies wanted deregulation. Now the black lung rate is at a 45-year high.

Financial companies wanted deregulation. Now financial losses to fraud are the highest on record.

Noticing a pattern?

FYI: When attacking a country turns said country into a superpower dominating global oil and trade, you've lost in a way no human ever has. Maybe the greatest single L in history.
