The murder of Alex Pretti is now seen in at least 5 videos. The incident unfolded over less than a minute. One agent instigated. One shot. Pretti held only a camera. He had a gun is his waistband, but never touched. it. The shooter saw him get disarmed, then shot him in the back, point blank. 1/
You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer.
In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.
Globally, no single day in 2025 was cooler than its 1991-2020 average.

There is a reason I only noted the Narcan access was coincidental.
A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis
The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway
They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming
The drop in deaths is also coincidental with over the counter access to Narcan.
****Message from Chief Johnson**** Torrington, In the next few weeks, you will likely see the name of one of our police officers in Municipal Court documents for a citation involving a violation of the City of Torrington’s Fireworks Ordinance. I want to take a moment to explain the circumstances involved in that citation. In the latter part of October 2025, we received information that one of our officers had set off fireworks inside the City Limits at a social event, in violation of municipal ordinance. There were other members of our agency present who were not believed to have been involved in setting off the fireworks. We contacted the Wyoming Highway Patrol and asked for their assistance in investigating this situation so that the investigation would be completed by another agency and by an investigator who did not regularly serve with the officer(s) involved. WHP graciously assisted and assigned one of their investigators to the case. Due to the holiday season, and other events around the State, it took some time to complete the investigation. When it was completed, it was found that there was probable cause to cite Officer Nick Jenkins for a fireworks offense under the Torrington Municipal Ordinance. I issued Officer Jenkins a citation for this offense yesterday. The citation is merely an allegation based on probable cause. Officer Jenkins is to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. We will be conducting a separate administrative investigation to review the actions of Officer Jenkins and the actions of any other agency employees who were present when this occurred. If violations of Torrington Police Department Policy or City of Torrington Policy are observed, they will be fully addressed through our personnel policies. Personnel records are confidential under Wyoming State Law. Police officers who have taken a sacred oath to serve their community won’t be perfect, but they must be accountable (truncated)
The 6,100-person city of Torrington, Wyoming is lovely and whatnot, but we need to steal their police chief and install him at a higher level of government asap

Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.
I can't remember the last time I was this angry.
