The Hall of Fire

I guess it’s not just me:

Is keeping a grand jury after hours to finish up a thing that happens? Why wouldn’t they just adjourn until tomorrow?

I guess we'll have to see https://twitter.com/AntiToxicPeople/status/1691140054264295425 I presume at most this means these are the charges the grand jury will be asked to vote on?

I thought she was a presumtive US Senate candidate?

By way of contrast, my precinct had no hot issues on the ballot yesterday (and only one issue of any temperature), and when I fed mine into the machine at 12:45pm, it informed me I was #20 for the day.

What is it with alt-right orgs using single letters to identify their “products?” And how long before the whole Alphabet feels dirty?

Edit: Lake Superior has an opinion:

Understood, but at the same time, that's a pretty major handicap when your opponents are chaos agents who don't care about rules or norms. One of my frustrations has been that the Michigan triumvirate (Gov. Whitmer, Sec. State Benson, and Atty General Nessel) have frequently stated that "democr...

My reaction is a combination of "Oh thank God they're finally getting serious" and "too little too late." Mostly the former.

Several people have drawn attention to the fact that in a weekend post, Trump complained about being indicted under the insurrection act in the documents case. In fact he was indicted under the *espionage* act, and he edited the post to say so shortly thereafter. But that little slipup most likely m...

And I must say that sometimes the things they suggest "for you" are downright insulting

It's a "good" conspiracy theory as far as such things go, because it has enough of a kernel of truth to sound halfway plausible. There's no question that our drinking water, and the environment in general, is full of man-made chemicals that mimic sex hormones and mess with our biochemistry...

Does this mean you've successfully blocked all data-harvesting, so they're just serving up generic ads? I very much doubt that, but it's possible I've limited how much of it they use for building my timeline. Yay? Also, what is a/s/l? When I tried looking it up, it seems to mean American Sign Langu...

It'll probably be very good, but honestly my knee-jerk reaction is that the absolute last thing the world needs right now is to give an insurgent imperialist the antihero treatment.

Speaking of Meta, for all the (highly credible) talk about the shady tricks they pull to hoover up as much of your personal data as they can get, based on the suggested posts it shows me, Facebook believes I'm really into classic cars, car repair, country living, and farming. All the info they have ...

It’s very silly

It can't possibly be legal to veto individual characters in order to fundamentally alter a bill's semantic meaning though, right? I mean, what if you cross out everything except G-O-V-E-R-N-O-R---G-E-T-S---T-H-E---M-O-N-E-Y?

Does this affect committee assignments or have any practical consequences at all beyond barring her from hanging out in the clubhouse?
