Hey @apple, you know what I’d buy in a second—a Mac with the iPad form factor. But an incredible iPad Pro running iOS? No thanks.

I hate to say this, but it has to be said: if you support Donald J. Trump you’re a sucker.
Or an asshole.
Or a racist.
Or all of the above.

At what point do people realize that Elon Musk, born on third base, is both a terrible human being and an awful businessman?

It’s possible that the only thing that will end Donald Trump’s appeal to his supporters, who see him as a strong man, is for a 13 year old girl to walk up and punch him in the face. He’d crumble like a bag of stale cookies.

“In the bathroom, I splashed cold water on my face and took some deep breaths. I didn't feel like I was going to throw up, but I also didn't not feel like I was going to throw up. I figured "mind over matter," and tried to will myself to feel better. I prayed that the next course would be somewhat more palatable, maybe a PB&J or a matzoh ball soup.

Instead it was raw squid on grilled koji.”

Tony Gonzales (R-TX) went further, telling Dana Bash of CNN on Sunday: "It's my absolute honor to be in Congress, but I serve with some real scumbags. Matt Gaetz [R-FL], he paid minors to have sex with him at drug parties. Bob Good [R-VA] endorsed my opponent, a known neo-Nazi. These people used to walk around with white hoods at night. Now they're walking around with white hoods in the daytime."

Finally!

Christopher Rufo is today’s Joseph McCarthy and it should be clear up front: no, he has no shame.

The web would be very different (and much better) if all sites were simple, unstyled, semantically structured HTML, without any styling and only enhancements requested by the visitors affected the design. I say this as a graphic designer with 40+ years of experience.

It should be everyone's goal in the short term to expose Kennedy as the fraud that he is. He knows he'll never be president, but just wants to make sure that Trump is elected. An odd position seeing that a Trump presidency will decimate the environment, which is what he (supposedly) cares about. But then who knows what is going on in that tiny, tiny, conspiracy-addled brain of his.

Man, I keep trying to give Threads a chance, but it’s as toxic a place as Xitter ever was. If you read the comments be forewarned that there’s a lot of hate over there, and lots of small-minded bigots.

“Now, eight years later, Trump is conducting his own foreign policy, and it runs dead against what the administration, the Pentagon, and a majority of senators and representatives think is best for the nation.”

Sounds a bit, er, treasonous to me.

Have we normalized calling Trump supporters "deplorables" yet? What other word can there be for someone who supports a candidate for President who talks about "bloodbaths" if he's not elected.

As someone who works on large government websites, I think this post by @anildash should be taught in employee orientations. It’s common for me to see cases where 70% of the entire site is filled with poorly-written, badly-structured PDF and Word documents with names like “pro-drt-1023-final”. https://www.anildash.com//2024/03/10/make-better-documents
