I beg American industry to ignore Trump’s big rollback of environmental protections. I know it will be tempting to some of you, but if you care about our health and safety even a tiny bit, please don’t do go along with it.

I keep getting suspended despite not posting anything.

When the history books are written about the Trump administration, they will be covering years of theft, grift, lies, bigotry, misogyny, hatred, incompetence, and utter buffoonery. Not to mention the kidnappings, abuse of power, and outright treason. This presidency must end!

Trump called federal diversity, equality, and inclusion efforts “radical and wasteful.”

Wasteful? Really? These offices can’t possibly be as wasteful as the sack of skunk shit that occupies the Oval Office.

Good to know that incoming President Scrooge’s first day priorities include talking civil rights away from millions of American citizens. Par for the course for this scumbag.

It’s been a curiously strange week so far.

Watching Trump’s cavalcade of whack job and asshat appointees is like watching a car expel an unending flood of clowns.

Watching Twitter rip itself apart by undoing great features added ages ago, or making them for-cost, is a shame.

No matter how many people point this out, too many other people remain unaware. It’s tragic to watch people excited to watch their taxes go up, even if indirectly.

[Eric Shepherd @sheppy]

When will people realize that tariffs are a tax on them— with a special focus on the middle class, which cannot as easily absorb those added costs in the process of the goods they buy every day…

Why are so many Americans fucking morons? All bowing down to their Moron In Chief-Elect.

Dear @HaloTopCreamery - your strawberry chocolate chunk “limited edition” is one of my favorite things. Please make it “everyday edition.”

The word "tweet" has become part of the culture now. Either everyone will keep calling it Twitter and calling the posts tweets, or the company will die and the site with it. @elonmusk is a smart guy (if a bit nuts in some ways), so the only explanation is intentional sabotage.

[Eric Shepherd @sheppy]

@CrayValleyPM Pretty sure it’s not me. :)

[Eric Shepherd @sheppy]

Twitter seems to be going down the sh!++er the last few weeks. I’ve been an admirer of @the_elomnusk’s talents for ages, but turning Twitter into an ever bigger mashup of crazy is a pity.

Too many games in the iOS App Store have “screenshots” that are all or almost all promo text and/or artwork. I don’t want to see you at department’s portfolio. I want to see, you know, screenshots. If all I see is advertising, I have to assume your game is too awful to show me.
