No system of rules or laws can fully account for people acting in bad faith.

I think the founding fathers counted on social shame to limit bad faith actors in government. A dishonorable person used to become a social pariah and might even get killed in a duel back in the 18th century. People wouldn’t associate with them, sign a contract with them, or lend them money. But now?

I recently got a Kia Niro and it has buttons on the wheel for most of the basic functions of the touch screen. Really handy

If they are banned, then they won’t be in common use, so it would be constitutional.

If you think my logic is flawed then you understand exactly why the supreme Court’s ruling is flawed.

Myspace is still online.

Convict him, lock him up, and tell Vance “If you leave him there you get to be the president.”

Until this election is decided, I fear we do.

Even if you don’t care about the cruelty or the stupidity of this plan, this is going to cost hundreds of billions of dollars and Trump has no plan for how to pay for it!

They are fine with these kids dying because it’s “God’s will”. It was never about protecting kids.

I enjoyed that call exactly once, when I left Comcast for RCN.

“I’m calling to cancel my service.”

“Why?”

“RCN offers twice the download speeds for half what you charge. Can you beat that?”

“…I’ll switch you to cancellations.”

Yikes! Is that what it is now? I got it a decade ago for $5.

Sleep as Android

It’s just a really great alarm clock app, but with tons of other sleep tracking functionality. I’ve always had trouble sleeping through my alarms, but I never do with this.

Wow! I was just watching the anime, Saga of Tanya the Evil, and it had these in it. I assumed it was anime craziness.

Well, there’s an exception to every rule.

I was in the process of applying for the SAVE program when it was blocked. I don’t know why or how but this put my payments on hold for another year. Not as good as paying it off, but still a huge help.

It’s always easier to destroy than it is to build.

Somewhere John Bolton just got an erection.

When Trump said he would debate Biden anywhere, any time, I said Biden should agree to a debate in Tehran.

They sure are willing to waste a lot of taxpayer money making sure cops can’t get sued.

Maybe they will have an upgraded version with a large rubber nose and a moustache.

The juvenile system was split off from the department of corrections in 2006 as a step to reform the system. The state has made extensive rules that the local operators have failed to follow. Four facilities were closed because they operated in an unacceptable manner. Plenty of other states have similar problems with juvenile detainees. We are actually trying to fix the problem.
