Thirty years from now, the graduating class of 2049 will not believe that there were people who defended Trump even after learning about everything that's come out this past week. And when shown proof, they'll just roll their eyes at how dumb people must have been in 2019.

Vox is currently running a lengthy interview with the costume designer from the new movie "Hustlers". They talk about the process of recreating clothing styles from the long ago time of ... 2008.

“It is impossible that the whistle-blower is a hero and I’m not. And I will be the hero! These morons—when this is over, I will be the hero,” Giuliani told me.

It's got a nice beat.

After an automated feature on a Boeing 737 Max failed in the skies above Ethiopia in March, repeatedly forcing the plane’s nose downward, the pilots were bombarded with a cacophony of alarms that shook, clacked and lit up throughout the cockpit.

Boeing did not sufficiently consider the effect that such a barrage would have on those flying the plane when it designed the Max, according to the National Transportation Safety Board, which released its first wave of recommendations Thursday in response to the crash in Ethiopia and one in Indonesia under similar circumstances in October.

Don't worry, though - the people working on self-driving cars aren't sloppy or profit-driven or under any kind of deadlines to get something out the door.

The White House communications director, Tori Symonds, accidentally emailed the White House talking points about the Ukraine call to House Democrats. And then she tried to recall the email.

Glorious.

Here.

Aside from the "We'd like more of these missiles" / "First, I'd like you do a favor for me [find the DNC's email server]" bit, what stands out most to me is the fact that, even in a call that nobody would ever even know about, Trump talks about almost nothing else but conspiracy theories about his enemies: Biden, Clinton and Mueller.

I'd always thought that maybe his constant public references to those things was just him playing to his idiot base. But, no, that really is all he thinks about.

The guy is utterly deranged.

An Idaho man attending a Guinness World Records event in Toronto captured the record for furthest tortilla throw, hurling the disc-shaped food item a distance of 54 feet, 5 inches.

RIP Robert Hunter

Let's listen to Gene Marshall!

This is one of the many 'song-poem' tunes he recorded. The song-poem scheme is basically a vanity-press operation that targets aspiring lyricists. People send their lyrics, along with a couple hundred dollars, to a music company. The lyrics get paired with original (but not great) music and the finished song is recorded and pressed - sometimes as a single, sometimes in a compilation with other song-poems. The compilation is more cost-efficient for the music company, and less satisfying to the lyricist - win/win! The aspiring lyricist eventually receives a stack of worthless records to deal with.

You're welcome.
