Today @ghost.org crossed $10M ARR, as a bootstrapped non-profit foundation building open source software.

I'm not familiar with the law, but I'm wondering if there is a specific timeframe within which the government is required to respond. This could be a significant burden and may result in some wins by default.

The post is a misdirection. Click the link and you'll see what I mean. The "fun" is the official-looking link summary. You can put anything in there.

That Allyson Friedman video is wild. I kept watching it to see people's reaction to the blatant racism.

I wonder how long she would have continued if no one had said anything.

I'm a certified Newsom hater, but this clip and summary of what he said isn't quite right.

Sometimes what comes out of his mouth is a slur. I mean that in all of the definitions of the word.

a cat walking up a set of stairs ALT: a cat walking up a set of stairs

Question for people who have cats.

If you live in a multi-story dwelling, do your cats dart UP the stairs like their lives depend on it when you are walking DOWN the stairs?

Is this just me? #AITAH

For a lot of people, voter ID feels straightforward and like common sense. I have a different perspective.

The Epstein email website racked up a $46,485.99 Vercel bill

Everyone said

1. Use Cloudflare
2. I could host this on a VPS for a ham sandwich

I dug into the site to see what could be causing this and if it would be cheaper or even possible with 450MM page views

Do they have a definition of "overreach" and explain why it's problematic?

Then do they compare each administration by that same standard?

I mean I haven't read it, but I'm sure it's in there, right?
