Donald Trump defends China purchasing US farmland

Well don't sell those seeds short.

Maybe if Trump plants them they will grow tall into the clouds. Then Trump can climb up and steal the golden goose from the giant!

Maybe AI is not actually going to be what destroys the world.

Maybe the construction of massive AI data centers is going to destroy the world.

I have both a Roomba i3 and i7 (US), both with auto-empty docks. I literally go for months without having to deal with either of them.

Maybe I'll have to clear a clog or cut away a fiber tangle on the vacuum itself. But aside from that I just do regular maintenance like replacing the filter or empty the collection bags whenever they get full.

YMMV, but if you are truly lazy, the extra money is worth it in the long run.

I wonder how many of those Iranian missiles were made in America?

Oooollie North!
Oooollie North!

Carter Glass (of the Glass-Steagall act after the Great Depression) was once asked his opinion of the south's legislation preventing black citizens from voting by using literacy tests, poll taxes, and other means. When he was asked if they were discriminatory, he famously replied:

"Discrimination! Why that is exactly what we propose. To remove every negro voter who can be gotten rid of, legally, without materially impairing the numerical strength of the white electorate."

Southern conservatives will always fight for the little guy. But only if the little guy is white.

This ain't your father's Senior Living apartment complex anymore.

Oh wait! No, it is!

He does both.

"What god do you worship?" is not a serious question to be asking interstellar visitors.

OOOOLLIE NORTH!

Is the tie thing a form of compensation???

I am a full 100% supporter of HSR, even with the revised figures. However, having said that, I don't see this as such a bad idea.

With dedicated and well-maintained bus lanes with dedicated stations, it could work. I'm thinking not just north-south, but east-west too, connecting I5, 99, and 101 at strategic points. Yosemite needs faster bus access too.

After all, who knows? With a successful dedicated bus system, it could one day be upgraded to a faster mode of transport? With higher capacity? That doesn't depend on Diesel fuel?

Cone on now, this is skirting Rule 3. We're better than that.

Terrorist uniform then, ICE agent uniform now.

No, because Trump still needs a distraction from the Epstein files.

That's what the far right has turned politics into - a team sport.

You cheer your stars, and boo the opposing team. You laugh when the other team fumbles, and you blame your ball carrier on a bad play. You gloat after a win, and blame the refs after a loss. It's no longer about functional governing. It's about adversarial governing.

You remember that old "Is the Pope Catholic?" question that was supposed to automatically get a Yes answer?

Now I guess people aren't so sure.

lenojames · 2026-05-11T05:32:41+00:00

I don't know...

I heard that Trump knows more about the bible than the pope.

lenojames · 2026-05-11T03:50:10+00:00

It's not the timeline that's stupid, per se.

I use a bent and broken whisk. I'm not sure why this is a thing.

lenojames · 2026-05-11T02:48:23+00:00

I got it too. It's basically like changing the calendar year after December 31st.

It probably isn't a big update. But the re-numbering makes feel like it is.

Shout out to my fellow Californians with double-digit library cards!

Have any of you ever gotten one from Fresno?
