(“I asked whether I was being detained, and she said 'You’re not being detained,'" [the superintendent] said. "I said, 'Then can I go?' And she said, 'No, you may not go.'")“I was threatened with being referred to the FBI... They also threatened to stain my record so I would never get a job again. They also threatened with an extended detention if I didn’t give them the passwords to the student information or to my district files."

Happy Dad has been remarkably successful, in some part because of the NELK Boys massive social-media footprint. They've been in the tank for Trump since at least 2020, as I detailed in this 2024 column for Fingers:

(“Nobody really takes responsibility for introducing it,” Cruz said. “None of us knew about it. It’s a very big, beautiful bill, and so there are lots of provisions there that at the end, things were moving very fast. I don’t know of anyone who was aware of the provision at the time it passed.”)NEW: Some Republicans push to undo gambling tax hike they passed in Trump's megabill House tax-writing W&M Chair Jason Smith told me Wednesday it was a “mistake” by the Senate and needs to be undone.

("At the urging of President Trump, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott called his state Legislature into a special session this week that includes a call to redistrict the Lone Star State to help Republicans pick up seats in Congress. The move is part of a gerrymandering effort pushed by Trump to prevent the GOP from losing control of the House of Representatives next year.")Texas state legislators and Gov.

However, the CPP regime seems emboldened even to provoke Vietnam, albeit not militarily (wise, given the Vietnamese have bested even the US) but by proposing to construct a canal that will reroute Cambodian trade currently transiting Vietnam. https://t.co/WtCVwTfIPY 8/
— Lee Jones (@DrLeeJones) July 25, 2025
The canal is Chinese-backed, like most megaprojects in Cambodia. Moreover, Cambodia's Ream naval base seems to host a permanent Chinese presence, much to the alarm of Vietnam, where China is a historical enemy and viewed with huge suspicion. https://t.co/hTTJGb2zXg 10/

Vietnam will purchase helicopters from the U.S. for its police force, as Hanoi—historically reliant on Russian weaponry—deepens its partnership with Washington. Reuters also stated that Vietnam is negotiating with Lockheed Martin over the purchase of C-130 aircraft. www.newsweek.com/vietnam-russ...

This is funny, and I DO recommend having a VPN. But when I was given options for proving age, it gave me the option to just look at my face through my phone camera and guesstimate if I was old, before deleting the photo. My face is easily googled, so fuck it. First try, it didn't think I was real.

Schemes to validate adults and their IDs are possible but they will NOT be run by those capable. All private data exposure is itself a breach already.

Every time I look at Youtube in Incognito mode, I am exposed to new horrors. Today, a minute-long ad where an AI-generated grandpa rambles in a mechanical monotone about how you don't need hearing aids, just to wave spoons past your ears to cure hearing problems. This is Youtube Default for many.

Fascinating. Microsoft emailed me to say it was raising the price of Microsoft 365, but when i went to cancel it offered me me the old price — without all the AI bullshit. It’s forcing AI on everyone and making them pay more for it, then only telling them they don’t have to if they try to cancel.
