Sleepless In America

Unlike pandas, life isn’t black and white, so we need to live in the gray. Sometimes that means accepting or forgiving people for not always being perfect. No longer recommending archive.ph (archive.today) due to bad behavior. Looking for alternatives.

Two headlines:

From The New York Times:  
Seat 11A: The Windowless Inside Joke at 30,000 Feet

What looks like a prime spot on the seat maps is prompting disappointment and humor for passengers who find only a blank wall.

From The Washington Post:
Window shade up or down on a plane? You’ll make enemies either way.

Some people love a dark tube. Some want to watch the world go by.

Make up your minds people. Do you want to look out the window or not?

Excuse us, it is totally on brand that 2026 brought us an International Women’s day the same day we lost an hour of sleep. We will still get all the shit done!

There’s a lot more, or course; Platner’s stories are full of lies and gaps. We don’t know who got him to run - the names are all secret. We don’t know what he did in 2017, a black hole after he dropped out of college, before he signed with Constellis. A family friend said “He was in rough shape” 8/

Hi everyone! My name is Andrea LaFlamme and I'm running to unseat Susan Collins in the US Senate. I'm a feminist public health professor and the ONLY candidate in this race who has worked in education, municipal health, and as an elected union leader. (1/2)

I thought this must be a parody, like The Onion or something, so I looked it up. Man, they are really operating in a different reality than we are.

Mullin is stepping in to replace Noem and escalate the war on the American people, volunteering to carry out Trump’s orders to target Americans and migrants.

DHS employees: now is the time to talk with your colleagues. Know your rights. You can refuse illegal orders.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

(Stretching, rubbing eyes) Ohh, wow, I've been asleep so long. How long was it? 20 years?! You're kidding! What's going on in the world? We're still fighting in Iraq?!

Saturday gratitude: Cooking pages with a "Jump to Recipe" link, so I don't have to read about your on-and-off college boyfriend who you finally realized was the one, and how he proposed to you, but his mom didn't seem to like you, but THIS recipe won her over, and now you've been married 23 years.

In lieu of getting capital punishment for their enemies, they'll either execute them on the streets or send them to countries where they are likely to be killed.

Trump Says 'I Guess' Americans Should Worry About Iran Retaliating on U.S. Soil: 'Like I Said, Some People Will Die' In an interview with 'Time,' President Donald Trump acknowledged the possibility that Iran retaliates with attacks on U.S. soil, saying, 'We think about it all the time. We plan for it'

And Trump is indicating that Americans won't. Oh, well. But back to football...

Texas county GOP missed deadline to report primary results It’s not clear how — or if — a state law about reporting requirements will be enforced. Republicans hand-counting in two other counties did not miss the deadline.

I think Trump has reached the stage of dementia where he has regressed to a small boy playing with his toys. He bombed Iran because he thought it would be fun. It's just a game. The people who are dying on both sides are like action figures. Their deaths mean nothing to him.

I swear, if Iran retaliated by taking out Trump or Hegseth or any of the military command that went along with this, I'd be OK with it. But the punishment will be inflicted on people who had no say in this madness.

It is amazing how this crew can make me miss the Bush administration. Didn't support them, didn't agree with them, thought what a lot of what they did was wrong, but at least we were dealing with adults who had a sense of their legacy after they left office.

"We pray for the full recovery of the wounded and send our immense love and eternal gratitude to the families of the fallen. And, sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. That's the way it is. Likely be more."

Suckers and losers. Oh, well, it's almost tee time.

I'm sure that if Tommy Tuberville wasn't already running for Governor of Alabama, Trump would have picked him for Secretary of DHS instead of Markwayne Mullin. It's rare to have so many options for stupid to choose from, although Trump is rapidly exhausting the supply.

As a friend pointed out: honestly astonishing to think about what would have happened if trump had come in and done literally nothing on the economy

Screenshot of an X post by Dan Scavino reading, “Happening Now in the Oval Office at the @WhiteHouse. God Bless the USA!” with prayer, heart, U.S. flag, and eagle emojis. Below is a photo inside the Oval Office showing Donald Trump seated at the Resolute Desk while a large group of men in suits stand around him in a circle with heads bowed and hands extended in prayer. American flags, gold drapes, and framed portraits are visible in the room.

It is interesting that people who seem to know that it's wrong to be racist or sexist or any other kind of -ist have no problem being ageist.
