The cynic in me thinks Vance and the rest of the GOP are waiting until Jan 21, 2027, or shortly thereafter, to remove Trump.

They’re already so clean, the next person in the kitchen has a very difficult time telling if it has been run or not. JUST too dirty to eat from again, but also too clean to see at a glance. So annoying. I even got one of those clean/dirty magnets so we can signal to everyone, but then people forget to switch it.

I haven’t used revanced in a while, but Fennic + ubo + sponsor block should get you to basically the same place unless they’ve added new features since I used it last.
No separate app required.


But that doesn’t make a good headline.


I graduated in 2001 in a tech-adjacent field, and my first job was as a security guard making barely over minimum wage. Things get bad. Things get better.


It’s an epidemic of “how do we cut staff by 15-20% without paying millions in severance” with no regard to what it means for the company beyond the next four fiscal quarters.
