Okay, so, Midge Ure.

The guy from Ultravox who also co-wrote “Do They Know it’s Christmas?”

Yeah.

Last night I learned he was also in Visage and THIN LIZZY.

I also learned that his name is a phonetically reversed pronunciation of his given name, “Jim.”

So, I’m gonna kinda take it easy today, because that’s a lot for a person to process and integrate.

@hotdogsladies This was the first song I ever owned on CD. It was the first track on a sampler CD that I got with my first player. :)

It’s funny how the same people who are flying their American flag upside down in the service of “free speech” are the same ones who tried for decades to get a constitutional amendment to eliminate those rights with the flag.

The rapid expansion of state voucher programs follows court decisions that have eroded the separation between church and state.

The IRS is making its free tax-filing platform permanent and open to all 50 states, the Biden administration announced Thursday, following the successful launch of the first-of-its-kind website.

Teslas can still be stolen with a cheap radio hack despite new keyless tech

Tesla owners should enable PIN-to-drive protection to thwart relay attacks.

@arstechnica As can any other make of car that uses keyless technology.

The big difference is that those other makes don't have a PIN-to-drive option.

Let's not pretend that Tesla has a corner on technology issues.

Donald Trump's [Lee Greenwood's] overpriced "God Bless the USA" Bible is missing Constitutional Amendments that MAGA cultists don't like, like the ones abolishing slavery and giving women the right to vote.

Never forget that for MAGAs, the cruelty is the point. Cruelty is the reason "Project 2025" senior advisor Johnny McEntee shared a video of himself "gifting" counterfeit money to homeless people with the intent of getting them jailed for trying to use it. McEntee had to be fired from the Trump administration and escorted out of the White House as he was under investigation for "financial crimes." However, he was immediately rehired by the Trump campaign.

"Growing concerns" that Ozempic will disrupt big tobacco, candy companies, and alcohol brands, according to Morgan Stanley

Are GLP-1 drugs the first real threat to the hyper-processed food and alcohol industries?

@cstross Doesn't it just mean that people can have all the tobacco, candy, and alcohol they want, and then just have a shot of Ozempic for the consequences? You'd think they'd be thrilled.

"We're going to have lawyers in all the major polling locations across the country. We have lawsuits in 81 states right now," announced the stable genius — aka Donald Trump's sycophantic daughter-in-law — on Newsmax. Wow, that's pretty impressive. With all those extra people to reach, no wonder the RNC is broke.

Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein’s 2020 rape conviction was overturned Thursday by the New York Court of Appeals, a shocking reversal of a landmark case that helped launch the movement.
The court ordered a retrial, ruling that the judge in Weinstein’s original trial improperly allowed testimony about allegations that weren’t part of the case.
