Can someone help me here?

The “Uber-Patriots” who follow TFG classify themselves as “patriots” and “real Americans”. I remember watching Jan. 6 unfold in real time. “Patriotism” was NOT what I saw that day.

Now, some of those same “patriots” are threatening people on the ground in NC who are trying to provide aid to our fellows impacted by two hurricanes.

“You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means…”

apple.newsSome FEMA operations paused in North Carolina after reports National Guard troops saw ‘armed militia’ threatening them — CNNAid to several communities impacted by Hurricane Helene was temporarily paused in parts of North Carolina over the weekend due to reports of threats against Federal Emergency Management Agency responders, amid a backdrop of misinformation about responses to recent storms.

So, trying to wrap my head around this news story: apple.news/AdS60Oz8KR3Kzw6XdKm

Seems like no real due diligence was done in vetting SCJ Kavanaugh. No real digging into the multiple allegations of sexual assault.

At the time it was frustrating. Now, angering. Especially when we all know that “have you boofed yet!” was not an inquiry into high school seniors’ flatulence.

I work for a large company and do training in regards to ethics and how to engage with outside vendors and government entities. The baseline, in short, is “don’t engage in ANY activity that could even have a hint of crossing any ethical lines. If it might appear corrupt, stop!”

How come we’re held to a higher standard than either the SCOTUS or Congress?

Shouldn’t these “leaders” be more accountable than the rest of us, not less?

Me and my first phone Over 40 years ago.

This photo has been on my grandma's living room cabinet for as long as I can remember. She passed away a couple of years ago, and to keep her memory alive, my wife suggested we keep it in our living room.

A blast from the past looking towards the future.

No, the phone doesn't run Android or iOS 😆

Just completed a fresh re-installation of my OS. (EndeavourOS)
I have everything installed, every program I need, all my apps, all my documents copied over backups restored etc.

That is a 921 GB hard drive
I have 871 GB left.

That's 50 Gig for the whole OS and every program I'll ever need (minus games) According to a more accurate program that would have been more awkward to screenshot the exact usage is 56.3 GB

This makes me happy.
