This kind of thing is why all the crap I'm slowly accumulating will never be sold on Craigslist.

Oh cool. Something else that will not matter a whit.
Supreme Court Justice nominee Neil Gorsuch founded and led a student group called the ‘Fascism Forever Club’ at his elite high school, DailyMail.com can reveal.
The club was set up to rally against the ‘left-wing tendencies’ of his professors while attending a Jesuit all-boys preparatory high school near Washington D.C.
No, Tina!

This Is Real

The blotted-out star in the center of the video is called HR 8799, and it’s in the constellation Pegasus, about 129 light-years from Earth. About five times brighter than the sun, HR 8799 is just 30 million years old, the equivalent of a stellar newborn.
Its four visible planets are bloated and large, each more massive than Jupiter, and take between 40 and 400 Earth-years to complete one orbit. It’s possible that undetected smaller, rocky planets live closer to the star—and that a fifth large world is hiding among a dusty debris disk on the outskirts of the system.
This system of exoplanets is one of the first scientists have directly imaged. The star is near enough—and the planets are big enough—that one of the Keck telescopes atop Hawaii’s Mauna Kea could see it. UC Berkeley graduate student Jason Wang made the video by compiling seven images of the system taken from August 2009 until the summer of 2016. He then interpolated the motion of the planets between the still frames.
Snake Eyes! Make A Rule!
The order, for which no official details have been released so far, requires that two regulations be cut for every new regulation introduced.
Well that's arbitrary, needlessly complex, and somewhat mean-spirited.
But, maybe we should run our government with the same mindset that 18-year-olds bring to drinking games. Party on, Donnie. Grab me a beer while you're up.

The American Civil Liberties Union said it received $24.1 million in online donations over the weekend.
In a normal year, the activist group makes about $4 million in online donations. In one weekend, it raised six times as much money.
Fuck Trump.
The "can you hear me" scam
It’s not a Verizon commercial: If you receive a phone call from someone asking “can you hear me,” hang up. You’re a potential victim in the latest scam circulating around the U.S.
Virginia police are now warning about the scheme, which also sparked warnings by Pennsylvania authorities late last year. The “can you hear me” con is actually a variation on earlier scams aimed at getting the victim to say the word “yes” in a phone conversation. That affirmative response is recorded by the fraudster and used to authorize unwanted charges on a phone or utility bill or on a purloined credit card.
Awesome.
Why doesn’t the IRS just send us a tax bill?
Motorin'!
Would professional competitive cyclists put little electric motors inside their bicycles' frames?
Varjas, a scientist and former cyclist, says he first designed a motor to fit inside a bike’s frame in 1998. He says a friend found an anonymous buyer who offered him nearly $2 million for it. Varjas says he took the money and agreed not to work on such motors, nor sell or speak of them, for 10 years. Asked whether he believes hidden motors like his have been used since then, he answers, “I think. Yes.”
