Maybe because he literally just put an entirely unqualified political hatchet man in charge of the DNI — while we’re at war — and the only reason he could give was that he would look into the “stolen” election bullshit? He’s making hugely important decisions based on a lie. That seems worth paying attention to. He also tried to set up a compensation fund for people who, inspired by his promulgation of that lie, laid siege to the Capitol. Oh and the only legislation he cares about is all wrapped up in his delusions about how elections are stolen. I can keep coming up with reasons. But the fact that the president still thinks his lie should drive policy and personnel (several J6ers work in the administration) that makes it relevant, imho.

@davepl1968 In the American south the meters are on the side of the house. When I was in elementary school, there was still a guy who walked around the neighborhood checking them, although I think he technically had a short range electronic device. I can see why this wouldn't work in Regina.

@mattyglesias @AaronBergman18 My sister has an indoor portable unit in Pirna, Saxony. You can't run it all day because of those weird quiet laws.

@FischerKing64 Why shoot them in the field instead of where ever you're going to finally dispose of them? Moving a live cow is a lot easier than moving a dead one. You'd probably need a damn front loader or something.

@cremieuxrecueil @neoavatara This makes arguments about the Confederate flag seem quaint.

@scottlincicome Whichever weekend is more convenient, but I would lean after. Before feels like cheating. You could be hit by a bus Monday.

@Telegraph The obviously solution is to have outrageously loud sex themselves to drown it out

US spending on data centers & computers has grown so much that it's larger than basically all other physical investment categories—more than all single-family housing construction, factories, power plants, industrial equipment, apartments

I'm running out of points of comparison

@mattyglesias I mostly means you're bad with money
