I seem to have rather unexpectedly gained some new followers recently. In the spirit of managing expectations, please understand that I will disappoint you in some way, and more likely sooner than later.

Self-driving cars means someday soon a Grandpa is going to roll up for a visit and be dead inside.

Proposed Constitutional Amendment: All sitting Federal lawmakers must do their taxes, the way students take the SATs. No help, in a room, monitored. They can bring in the actual U.S. tax code, and any forms issued to them, W9, 1099, etc. Then we get to watch them try to make sense of the nonsense. When they inevitably make a mistake, they get to deal with the nonsense they put us through. Stay tuned for more simple, and logical solutions.

Some brilliant mad bastards have gotten signoffs from the FAA and the ATF and re-armed a P-40 Warhawk. What a time to be alive. This is fantastic. (link to full video below)

It’s dumb that Superman’s name has a Latin prefix and an English suffix. He should be called either Overman or Superhomo.

America barely survived its infancy 250 years ago. 1776 was the brightest but also maybe the darkest year in American history. Many miracles helped birth America, but perhaps the biggest was no miracle at all. It was the bravery of the 1st Maryland at the Battle of Long Island.

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.? Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Everything they taught you about July 4th, 1776 is a lie. The Redcoats weren't soldiers. They were something else. We recovered the real footage using Utopai 🧵👇

Cyberpunk 2077 remains the single most important story ever told in the medium of video gaming. I will not be taking questions at this time.

🇨🇳 China releases video of truck-mounted Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) catapult launching a drone. Modular system of linked trucks (with insane all-wheel steering) that can deploy on roads or cargo ships. Part of a containerized weapons family including missiles, CIWS & radars. China is targeting 2,000 units/year. This is a game-changer for expeditionary ops & drone airpower without runways. Source: TWZ / Writer: Jamie

We are aware of footage showing the arrest of a man after a disorder on Broad Street at 1.30am on 21 June. Officers found a group of men fighting. As the incident was dealt with, an officer was punched. One man was arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer.

Birmingham police arrested the victim of an attack while allowing his attackers to flee. Another example of 2 tier policing in the united kingdom. x.com/Re_mi_gra_tion…

It seems that @DC_Police were too busy investigating posts on X to bother with something so minor as grave robbing. Got to make sure the REAL criminals are kept in check, after all.

I've just been informed by Devon and Cornwall Police @DC_Police that the stone mason company who stole the concrete slab from my Sons grave and moved it to someone elses grave where they cemented a memorial stone to it have not committed any crime. This is despite the fact they disturbed the structure of my Sons grave, STOLE a component part of it and walked away from the cemetery leaving my Sons grave completely uncovered. I'm absolutely astounded at this decision. It was discovered in this state by my Grand Children who went to lay flowers on Fathers Day. (I've blurred out the name on the memorial stone).
