I have been planning to make homemade grenadine my wife, noticing that pomegranate molasses is on the shopping list, says "hey, you know that meme where someone says 'why pay $10 for restaurant thai food when you can make shitty thai food at home for just $65?'" the jdam of offhand comments

Rest in peace, fitness guru Richard Simmons, who made exercise accessible to a wide range of body types. I waited on him once when I was a waiter, and despite his wild and crazy media persona, he was a very sweet, softspoken, and gentle queen, instantly endearing.

OK but what if the gay furry hackers released transcripts of their text conversations with Heritage Foundation Director and massive pissbaby Mike Howell?

"Don't let the French have all the fun" is an excellent slogan and I submit it to the committee for wide promulgation in everyone's elections.
Look how fun shutting down fascists is. I want this for us, too

This is super important work. And it looks like it's actually having an effect. Normal people learn about Project 2025 and are scared as shitless as they should be. The Nation, The New Republic, Rolling Stone, Boston Review and others are doing the work that NYT and WaPo are neglecting.
We need more, but credit where due: both The Nation (June 2024 issue) and Boston Review have run a breakdown of the Project 2025 “Mandate for Leadership” document. Media Matters, too. Lots of good work going on digesting this. www.bostonreview.net/articles/ins... www.mediamatters.org/project-2025

It's impressive that on a stage where there's a Monster Raving Loony Party candidate *and* Count Binface (not in shot), the Reform UK guy's suit still stands out as terrible.

Not immediately clear whether the candidate is referring to Reform or the Tories here
A second Reform candidate has defected to the Tories, saying the “vast majority” of her fellow candidates are “racist, misogynistic and bigoted”. Georgie David, the candidate for West Ham and Beckton, also said she didn’t believe the “senior leadership” was racist.

THE sentence of the day: A Macronist incumbent in the Marseille region came in 3rd in her seat. She just dropped out to support the left. She said, about why she's maneuvering to block the far-right: "Defeats happen, but you can never recover from dishonor."

/8 At any rate, congratulations to the Federalist Society for an achievement beyond the reach of the British, outside the grasp of bloody civil war, impossible to Nazis and Soviets and terrorists: defeating the American idea.

I'm extremely grateful that there are excellent security researchers like the Qualys person/team and Google Project Zero who are putting their work into the public domain. 1/n

OpenSSH 9.8 has just been released. It includes a fix for a critical race condition in sshd that could be exploited for remote code execution. It also contains a fix for a minor bug in ssh that saw the ObscureKeystrokeTiming feature work the opposite way as intended. openssh.com/releasenotes...
