Money, orgies, and pedoohelia? Why does that sound familiar?

Embattled Republican leader Matt Gaetz who will become the attorney general if cleared by the Senate, which is unlikely, has now been accused of attending at least 10 sex parties between 2017 and 2018 when he was serving his first term in Congress.

…

Lawyer Joel Leppard representing two women who already testified before the House Ethics Committee said his clients informed the probe panel that drugs were consumed at those sex parties. One of the women claimed to have seen Gaetz having sex with an underage friend up against a games table.

No reasonable company would send their citizens to work in the USA when there is every possibility that they could be indefinitely detained or “deported” to some third world gulag at the whim of the Trump administration.

He had access to the back of the monitor. It was just mounted on a frame. He probably unplugged the input and plugged into the same port.

Maybe the thermians watched Star Trek too and used those characters for their holographic disguises.

Just had the same thought. I don’t think I’ve watched it since I was a kid and saw it in the theater. When I stumble on an old movie like this, I always like to check who was in it. It’s fun to see who was in old stuff who really hit it big.

Wizards came out in February 1977. Three months before Star Wars: A New Hope came out. Mark Hamill actually voiced one of the fairies in Wizards! I’m kind of geeking out a little bit.

The link works fine for me. Might be some kind of geo-blocking issue.

Here’s an Archive link to the article.

I wondered if we would see vision restored more to normal when I heard about Wonder Man coming out. In the original comics, Wonder Man was the source for Vision’s brain pattern. I wonder if there will be a tie-in of some sort as a nod to the comic Vision’s origin.

Is it odd that exercise makes me less hungry? When I work out in the morning (30-45 minutes on my elliptical machine) before breakfast, I have no particular desire to eat. If I skip breakfast, I don’t really get hungry until lunchtime. On days when I don’t work out and try to skip breakfast, I end up struggling to think about anything other than food all morning.

The assessment found that PFNA interferes with human development by causing lower birth weights and, based on animal evidence, likely causes damage to the liver and to male reproductive systems, including reductions in testosterone levels, sperm production and the size of reproductive organs.

Likely causes reductions in the size of reproductive organs. You would think that this at least would get the attention of these people. I know they don’t care about much, but I’m shocked that they are not panicked over the likelihood that their sons are all going to have tiny dicks like Trump.

“‘Someone’ cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second,” Bray posted on Bluesky social media. “We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’”

I confess that I know nothing about cancelling reservations like this, but who exactly has the power to cancel a reservation after you’ve gone through security, picked up your boarding passes, and checked your bags? Could some rando have called the airline and done it at that point? I would think that the computer would flag the customer service person that the traveler was already checked in and ready to board. But then, maybe I’m giving their systems too much credit.

Interesting. I can see it fine on Firefox. I’m on version 143.0.4. Are you maybe using an extension like NoScript that might be blocking it?

Yes, this is basically the Riddle of Epicurus.

If God is willing to prevent evil, but not able, He is not omnipotent. If He is able, but not willing, He is malevolent. If He is both able and willing, then whence comes evil? If He is neither able nor willing, why call Him God?

I like to put it this way: Omniscient, Omnipotent, Benevolent - Choose any two. The evidence around us is ample proof that God cannot have all three properties.

The people that won were the only bidders.

And they may not even get it.

Federal officials did not immediately say if they would accept the offer. It was the only bid received.

The Fed could end up saying that the bid was too low and may not accept it despite there being no other offers. This is far, far less than they were hoping for, I’m sure. Per the article, the last successful lease in the area was “$793 million, or $1.10 per ton, for 721 million tons of coal in Wyoming.” This bid is $186,000 to lease 167 million tons which comes to something like like $0.001 per ton. The last coal lease was worth 1000 times more than this bid.

Parente also offered to play an agent’s body-camera video that shows the shooting, noting that prosecutors did not show the video that he claimed disputes the government’s version of the shooting.

Parente said the video shows an agent turn a federal vehicle left into Martinez’s vehicle, after which an agent says, “Do something b----.” The agent then exits the vehicle and shoots at Martinez.

Sure sounds like attempted murder under the color of law to me.

That’s a tough one. There is a spray you can get, Bitter Apple. Most cats hate the smell and will avoid it. In your shoes, I would get some and spray a little on a wash cloth or similar and tuck it in the sling. That may keep him from crowding the sling and stepping on your injury. Don’t spray yourself or your sling directly though. If the odor is too offensive and makes him stay away entirely, you can toss the washcloth in the laundry and try something else.

Bitter Apple Spray - Note, this talks about the spray as a chewing deterrent, but in my experience cats will avoid areas where it’s been sprayed. Just remember to start small. You wouldn’t want your boy to start avoiding you completely.

No. According to an article the IDs were from people who were challenging an age determination. Still bullshit, but you don’t need ID to use Discord as a general rule.

The unauthorized party also accessed a “small number” of images of government IDs from “users who had appealed an age determination.”

Small is, of course, a relative term. I would consider a small number to be 2 or 3. They may feel that 10,000 users is a small number. Who can say?

Did you notice that Trump called them “unlawful combatants” in this article? That phrase may ring a bell.

George W. Bush’s cronies invented the phrase during his reign of terror, or as he called it, his war on terror. He said that there were people who were neither enemy combatants, nor civilians. They were a third category: Unlawful Combatants. The conventions that protect prisoners of war did not apply to such _unlawful _ combatants. Such people could be arrested, indefinitely detained, tortured, or even killed without charge or trial. This was the justification for G. W. Bush’s extraordinary rendition program that had U.S. agencies kidnapping people off the streets of the US and other nations and shipping them to black sites where they could be tortured indefinitely.

The repeated use of the phrases unlawful combatant and narco-terrorist tells me all I need to know about where they plan to go with this.
