@Popehat Ken, Help! I sent my chancellor to fabricate a claim on the duchy of Disney World and this event triggered. What the hell do I do now?

5. The total fines imposed since 2017 are equivalent to 0.04% of @DollarGeneral@twitter.com's sales in 2022.

This is not OSHA's fault.

They are limited by the law. OSHA can only charge "a company up to $15,600 per day for up to 30 days."

What a weird headline and story frame.

It makes it sound like stripping the right to vote is just a little bump in the road for a party that wants to take its ball home now that no one wants to play with them anymore.

Our national media (which is our only media these days. See: Gatehouse) continues to fail us.

I wrote about your oven's secret Sabbath mode, and how that relates to your computer's assistive technology features. ericwbailey.website/published/

So, in the "Free" state of Florida, during a public hearing about HB1423, one MAGAt representative (Randy Fine) believes the rights of parents are limited and that he supports revoking a parent's right to determine what film and video their families can watch, while another moron (Rep. Kevin Steele), thinks "perhaps we should require a license in order to be a parent".

This has never been about parental rights, or free speech. It is about theocratic control by the state of what we see, say, and do as citizens. This is not freedom. #desantisdestroysflorida #1stamendment

Relativity Space just posted this photo on Twitter and I am AGHAST at how beautiful it is. (If you're wondering why the flame is part blue, the answer is methane/liquid oxygen fuel. Video coming on this later today!)

For the people who have advocated fruitlessly for years for the US to have any substantial data privacy law, it has to feel like gaslighting to see the country's national security apparatus finally focus on what TikTok collects and then conclude the answer is to ban that one app.

Most folks I know who are worried about AI aren’t worried about these programs becoming self aware and oppressing us. That’s not a thing. We’re worried about all the ways these systems will ramp up existing inequalities and further obliterate our shared reality as human beings. That’s already happening.

Woke up to a bunch of banging and thumping around this morning and I finally get outside to discover that my roof is currently home to a group of ducks.

Rep. Burgess Owens is set to lead a congressional hearing on the Biden administration's "unlawful" student loan forgiveness program.

Owens, who has filed for bankruptcy protection multiple times, said "debt cannot be canceled" #utpol

5. After sending these undercover officers to the drag show, the DeSantis administration ignored their report and FILED A COMPLAINT WITH A FRAUDULENT DESCRIPTION OF THE SHOW to try to shut the venue down.

Seem like a pretty big deal.

Anecdotally I've heard people say they're surprised by how many job applications never get *any* response, not even a rejection.

Seems this is part of why: companies are posting fake job openings to mislead investors, employees, and competitors.
