Good time to announce that I am enacting a strict No Bozo policy in my life starting 1 Feb 2024. If you, by your interactions with or around me, force me to sacrifice time, money, energy, sanity, etc., and neither of us gain from it, you will be labeled a bozo & cast out.
Saw a guy on the road today with a "gods guns & Trump" bumper sticker right next to a severely faded Ohio State logo, both on the driver's side door. Of course he cut me off of the freeway. Twice, somehow, actually.
Tasia Fortune was murdered and lynched in Mississippi. She was found in a noose hanging from a tree in a vacant backyard. She was 29 years old. This is a racist state that wants you to think about lynching in the past tense when in fact this is still happening.

We have to understand that we’re dealing with a class of people who genuinely have no regard for life—theirs or others. The writing is on the wall for all to see. They’re just trying to enjoy their party before the music stops.
I need people to understand, AI can't read, it can't understand your question. It uses pattern recognition. If you're using it for research, its not research, its selective and biased results based on pattern matching, if there's no pattern it fills the blanks with false info.
Three men have been charged in DuPage County, Illinois, for allegedly stealing and vandalizing five Flock automated license plate reader (ALPR) cameras in and around Lisle. The suspects are Anthony Pareigis, 34, and Jacob Steichmann, 32, both of Downers Grove, and Thomas Yano, 31, of Indian Head Park.
Each man faces two counts of theft of government property (Class 2 felony) and two counts of criminal damage to government-supported property (Class 3 felony). Prosecutors stated the charges are non-detainable under Illinois' SAFE-T Act, resulting in their release from custody pending trial.
The Incident: On July 26, 2026, police discovered two cameras stolen within Lisle and three others in unincorporated areas. Officers arrested Pareigis at the scene while he approached another camera with a drill and ladder; Steichmann and Yano were arrested hours later nearby.
Evidence: Police recovered a gray 2012 Subaru containing five Flock cameras, a ladder, gloves, and power tools. Each camera is valued at approximately $2,800.
Next Steps: All three men made their first court appearance on July 27, 2026, and are scheduled to return to court on August 24, 2026.
