Tommy Tuberville says he went to Gotham to help an accused felon threaten a judge's family.

Via David Lurie:

Tuberville is a bad co-conspirator.

Aaron Rupar:

Tommy Tuberville admits on Newsmax that "one of the reasons he went" to NYC yesterday was to "overcome this gag order" #Trump #GagOrder

@GottaLaff @thepoliticalcat And Trump was seen editing the statements his boot lickers then made outside.
That's another contempt hearing. 😏

Installing Windows on the MacBook Air so that it’s hopefully no longer a $1000+ paper weight and maybe can be a machine for OBS and other streaming software and maybe Live2D and stuff

@danirabbit Even the apps don't matter to these cretins. Controlling the ecosphere through which the apps are traded so they can extort their unearned cut is the ultimate goal. They want to be nothing more than digital landlords.

US Central Command says it used a USAF C-130 and US Army soldiers specialized in aerial delivery of humanitarian assistance supplies to drop ~6,000 pounds (~2,700 kg) of food into northern Gaza today.

@GreenFire @w7voa Weird take, since I didn't mention Biden. Sure you're not projecting a little there, buddy?

TeeCeeGee,
@TeeCeeGee@mastodon.nz avatar

@GreenFire @w7voa Hmm... Or calling a worthless gesture designed to whitewash collusion in mass starvation painting lipstick on a pig... Is exactly what I said.
Maybe trying to re-characterise it as a personal attack on an unnamed person is you not really caring about the Palestinians? 🤷

@GreenFire @w7voa Cool story, bro.
I'd like to see them fed too, but this ain't it, and you're the only one prattling on about Biden.

Hello! I want to do a Spooky Picture Prompt! So, find a picture in your camera roll that would represent the phrase:

Last Picture on the Camera Roll

This should be spooky, but completely up to your own interpretation. Here's one from me, with weird eclipse light.

@RickiTarr I don't get substrate chauvinism. Some people use the homebrew dopamine their brain produces naturally, I use the top-shelf high-grade stuff in a bottle from the pharmacy. 😄

@RickiTarr Oh, we're all on the same stuff. Some make it themselves, others have to buy it.
My response to "Oh, you're on an anti-depressant", is usually, "Yeah man. So are you. Mine just has a prescription." 😄

Watch this satellite obliterate the Kuiper Belt object moving through this set of images.

The dumb satellite is so bright that our auto-detect software threw out the whole stack, because it destroyed the average brightness.

It pisses me off to no end that my taxpayer-funded telescope time is now less and less effective because of one for-profit private company.

(P.S. software dudes: please don't try to mansplain workarounds, believe me, a LOT of astronomers are working hard on this)

A gif of a Kuiper Belt object slowly moving across a set of images. It just looks like a fuzzy dot. Toward the end of the sequence, there's a super bright diagonal line that covers up the moving dot - that was a satellite.

@anathema_device I had two chainsaws given to me by a friend who works for a saws and mowers type shop to see if I could fix them. Got both working like new and gave them to a couple of young fellas who gave me a hand on the weekend, clearing trees that fell in the storm a couple of weeks ago. They were absolutely stoked, cost me nothing but a bit of time. I got some firewood, the neighbours got the trees cleared away. Love it when things work out like that. 😊

When I was a teen, I was aggressively anti-theist, imagining myself quite clever for demonstrating how silly religious beliefs are.

But life is fucking hard and I learned not to begrudge anyone any solution they’ve come up with to make life a little more comprehensible to them.

I don’t share anyone’s religious beliefs, but it’s not as if I’ve figured out how to run my own life successfully. I shouldn’t be in the business of telling other people how or how not to handle the world.

TeeCeeGee,
@TeeCeeGee@mastodon.nz avatar

@HeavenlyPossum @Radical_EgoCom All these benefits can be found elsewhere from sources which do not carry the harms of religion, and are demonstrably more efficient and more accountable.
That makes any harms from religion outweigh their utterly replaceable and exaggerated benefits.

TeeCeeGee,
@TeeCeeGee@mastodon.nz avatar

@HeavenlyPossum @Radical_EgoCom We treated fevers with blood-letting and shoving herbs up our butts for a long time too. Longer than any religious cult has persisted so far.
When you learn better, you're supposed to modify your behaviour. That's called growing up.

TeeCeeGee,
@TeeCeeGee@mastodon.nz avatar

@HeavenlyPossum @Radical_EgoCom And what is the history of religion, except constant replacement with one after another. All claiming to be the 'truth'.

TeeCeeGee,
@TeeCeeGee@mastodon.nz avatar

@HeavenlyPossum @Radical_EgoCom I don't find "whataboutism" arguments particularly compelling but sure, and if you speak out against a secular ideology and are punished for it, we have no problem recognising that as wrong. We're all human, that's why accountability is important.
Religion, however?...
Actively, and violently suppressing dissent against something "sacred" and unquestionable is religion's brand, and the principal source of harm.

TeeCeeGee,
@TeeCeeGee@mastodon.nz avatar

@deirdrebeth @Radical_EgoCom @HeavenlyPossum It doesn't require faith. It's self evident.
A statement like that would require having not seriously read anything posted here.

@TeeCeeGee@mastodon.nz avatar

@HeavenlyPossum @Radical_EgoCom That casual dismissal of multiple examples, followed by shifting the goalposts, is probably why you've 'never seen' an alternative?
