This. I care about graphic design and aesthetics. So when I send a document to a group for review, I’m not taking the risk of giving them something they could mess with.

So many Boomers I know do the subject line thing, I had no idea it was a Zoomer thing too. Oh no…

Also DOGE cutting the workforce that would process things like this, ensuring that people have even more trouble getting proper documentation for voting.

You’ve got to make sure that you’ve completed Tournament Mode three times, and on your fourth attempt, if you’ve managed to beat Hegseth and Vance with a Perfect, you’ll see a shadow figure in the background of Gabbard’s stage. Unleash a hadouken followed immediately by a crouching medium kick (doesn’t need to connect, it’s just the button presses that act like an unlock code) and you’ll instantly see “a new challenger appears.” Win that fight without using a super combo and you’ll unlock the Others as a playable character.

One thing I want to know is: who did Waltz think he was adding? Is there another Goldberg in the administration (or a foreign one?) out there? Or is his name right under Gabbard’s in the contacts list?

Correct. Signal is still an excellent app. The problem is that it can have a wide array of contacts that can be added by the slip of a thumb (aka User Error). I’d imagine that secure government software does not happen to have the editors in chief of major news publications saved on there. They probably also have a flag coded in there that alerts you if someone without proper security clearance is added by mistake.

This makes me wonder if this was part of a ploy to let the public know how messed up things are in a “blink twice if you need help” kind of way. Or did Waltz feel these people are undeserving of their cabinet appointments and so managed to lift the veil so we can all see it? Is he mad that he wasn’t considered for the Secretary of Defense position? Is this his way of being Jim from The Office and looking into the camera?

Also in Hawaiian. I was first told “just pronounce all the letters.” This is why you can have words that are all vowels like “Aiea” (basically “a-ee-ay-ya” but kinda fast).

Always trust Wesley Snipes. Always.

Someone accidentally left the TV on Canadian Bacon and he caught a few minutes of it before he went to speak with reporters.

And Teddy Roosevelt was a progressive Republican that opposed trusts and the imbalanced influence of money in politics (but the changes began to happen during his time, which is why he left the party altogether). There was a time when “Republican” just referred to the kind of governmental structure one supported (just like “democrat”), with a range of economic and social views. That’s actually what the “grand” in Grand Old Party (GOP) referred to iirc—it was a party big enough handle a range views and ideas. AND, again iirc, the whole push for republican governmental ideas by said party was to find a way around the stranglehold of slavery in American economics. Representative government could make decisions that the populace might not support because it was the morally correct thing to do (which is also why the concept of electors was advanced by Hamilton, incidentally: as a safe-guard against tyranny—electors could look at an elected candidate and say “nah” because that person was actually likely to work against the interests of the United States).

How the mighty have fallen.

Nah just having fun. I like the theory down-thread that this is the Las Vegas Statue of Liberty.

It could be that they’re not in the former area of NYC, but the statue made its way to where they are. She’s hollow, yeah? Could she float? Could she have been taken back by the French at some point and then sent to some island like Tahiti?

Or is this movie a distant sequel to Ghostbusters 2?

I’d not considered this before. Damn.

Isn’t it in the nature of memetics that they evolve?

So, do we refer to them as “re-fired beings”?

I’ll see myself out
