In case you were wondering what the worst song to have sung loudly at you on a late- night train by someone who didn't know the words of the tune or how to not screech at incredible volume, I submit the following: Wasn't Me by Shaggy ft. Rikrok Ducent

Hey.

The holidays can be lonely

Bone crushingly, brutally lonely

So I’m going to open up my Discord if you wanted some folks to talk to

I want to keep my membership small and tight knit, so I’m limiting this to 5 invites right now to see how it goes

You’ll have access to the general chat rooms and if you like us you’ll gain access to all the rooms.

>> Politics, tech, news, memes, music, food… and nerds <<

If that’s something you’re interested in drop me a reply or a Private Mention

The least everyone could do at this juncture is communicate to the hostage families who is being released and when they are being released. I understand multiple organizations are holding them, but they 46 days in have to have a grasp on who is who and maybe Israel coukd worry more about that for a second, then where fuel deliveries are going.

Police, threats to public safety 

If I were planning a major crime or a quiet espionage I would do exactly this. It's literally the plot for Die Hard 3!

Of course, by the time I was finished writing my previous post, Ms. Crow showed up, jealous she didn't get a morning peanut yet.
(She did after the pic was taken.)

My Mastodon button disappeared from my phone. What happened? Now on Tusky app.

I don't like apps.

The Mandate also would rewrite the “joint employer” standard, providing a loophole for franchise corporations “to escape responsibility for bad labor practices.” Project 2025 also wants to roll back new overtime rules, he found, rendering “millions of workers ineligible for overtime pay””—though the group does want to increase overtime on Sabbath days, an incentive to get companies to close in observance.

The plan also exempts small businesses from national labor and safety standards, “which would leave millions more workers with no protection from unsafe, abusive bosses.” And while much of the platform is concerned with trimming government oversight, Project 2025 would in fact enhance that supervision in one arena—unemployment benefits.

The throughline is that while conservatism is undergoing something of an identity crisis, the movement cannot seem to kick Donald Trump. And New Right economics are in no danger of offering too much help to too many people.

But Project 2025 has already begun “pre-screening the ideologies” of thousands of prospective Trump officials, Axios reported. It stands to reason that its own handpicked advisers would pass the Trump test.

I bet if national newspapers posted images of the wounds from AR-15s in these mass shootings every time a mass shooting happened on the front page or the top of their web page, Congress might consider finally doing something.

...so before you succumb to the huge public outrage over Israeli children being mistreated by monsters, consider also the parents of the children that Israel threw in jail, and then consider being outraged by "administrative detention".

Look it up.

'You should be assassinated': Officials flag 'credible' threats against Trump fraud judge rawstory.com/trump-fraud-trial

Everybody has heard reports of the agreement between Israel & Hamas over a humanitarian pause aka ceasefire and the "freeing of hostages" aka .

How it has been reported surfaces as an issue. Mainstream Media, in a feeble attempt at accuracy, says there will be an exchange of people, however characterized, between Israel & Hamas where Hamas releases hostages and Israel releases people in jail.

So far, so good, until we get to the "women and children" part.

Separately mentioned in passing is that the swap is women-and-children for women-and-children....without blinking an eyelash that there are children in Israeli prisons. Nevermind that they're Palestinian children--that there are children at all in Israel's jails.

I'm going to give credit to CNN's Rosemary Church for being accurate on this matter as well as asking questions of the reporter-on-the-ground as to what offense did children commit that landed them in jail.

The reporter said "throwing rocks."

Rosemary Church hosts live CNN broadcasts when they're not more commonly re-running the day's earlier shows, and during the wee hours so that the prime time audience wouldn't notice, I guess.

I'm calling SHENANIGANS.
