The camera turns on! So we’re actually okay there. Not sure about impeding into the lens yet. I haven’t had time to go through everything

Turned the water off right away and the leaking stopped. None of the valves around the house controlled the flow to that pipe…. So we’re just without water for a while

Things were going so well in my life! 2026 was looking up! 🀩

We ARE coming out with a @thatsabsurdshow.com today! Our gem of a human editor (Kyle) had a pipe burst in his house during this frigid winter storm that hit most of the USA. I had to dig out of 22 inches myself! (56 cm!)

It'll drop a bit later in the day, but it's coming !

The trials after this abomination of a presidency are going to have a name.

We will learn about them in the history books.

Have a Ring camera?? You’re basically an #ICE agent now. They’re tapping your camera for their fascist bs.
I was already wary, and now i know they're just bad. Thankfully i no longer have any of their cams to rip out and recycle
Thanks @404media.co for covering this.

Yeah, unless you dropped the sign outside on the night of the new moon and live somewhere really low on the Bortle scale and don’t have a flashlight. Then it’s like, 12 hours of β€œoh no I don’t have my sign” and you can grab it when the sun comes up

Oooh good one. Honestly, I think it’s worse like you have to bring back abandoned carts for one hour or something.

There should be a special little punishment for people who use the β€œin-car pick up” spots at stores when they fully intend to just go in and shop.

I was picking up a gift for a kid’s birthday and parked in the in-car pickup spot. While I waited the person from the car in the next spot over came out with a large shopping cart full of stuff they’d bought.

Yeah I’m optimistic! But very skeptical bc of the last of real world information

By β€œthis is a common thing” I mean companies / chief scientists typically publish research h running up to their breakthrough. All that research is often grant funded or done in partnership with institutions so it’s publicly available

11.01.2026 14:43 πŸ‘ 3 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 2 πŸ“Œ 0

- have published no research studies on how it works that I’ve yet seen (this is a common thing btw)
- have no public info about anode, cathode, or electrolyte (motortrend guesses polymer)
- have no 3rd party verification of claims
And then… they haven’t yet responded to my emails to clarify

I’m looking into the Donut Labs solid state battery that everyone keeps sending me. I would love to talk about it on my channel, but I can’t verify ANYTHING. It’s splashy, but SO SKETCHY.

Lemme explain …

Support for abolishing ICE hits a a new high Americans have turned sharply against Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and say it too often resorts to violence

"YouGov has ICE at 39% favorable, 52% unfavorable...But this top line really understates the intensity of public backlash to ICE and its tactics. In February 2025, just 19% of Americans held a strongly unfavorable view of ICE. Today, 40% do."
