If you've ever been outside and met people you've probably come across a woman like this. I don't mean someone who's loud and verbally abusive, but someone who's in complete denial about their behavior and who projects their own issues onto others to make themselves appear more sympathetic. If you watch the video you can witness her screaming at everyone as she tries repeatedly to play the victim. And I guess, as I'm thinking about it now, you don't really need to go outside to find these people: they're all over social media, too. Originally shared by Brian Harrod VIDEO: Trump Voter Flips Out on Black Workers at Michaels A woman shopping at a Michaels arts and crafts store in Chicago went on a tirade against two black employees after she was offered a $1 reusable bag at checkout, yelling at workers and employees for over 10 minutes. The woman proclaimed herself a Donald Trump voter and said she was being racially discriminated against by a black store m...

Originally shared by Brian Harrod Trump Can't Keep Lease on His Hotel in D.C. Donald Trump's election as president means he can't lease Trump International Hotel from the government in Washington D.C. The lease on the government's historic Post Office Pavilion with Trump states, "No ... elected official of the Government of the United States ... shall be admitted to any share or part of this Lease, or to any benefit that may arise therefrom ..." LOL....Sounds like Ivanka just got herself a hotel. Steven L. Schooner and Daniel I. Gordon write for Government Executive, "The language could not be any more specific or clear.

I use the generic Google app on my Android In the past I've used the Samsung app that cane preinstalled on my Samsung device and the calendar app that came preinstalled on my current device.

On those days when I can, when I wake up early enough and when the weather is cooler, I like to get Rufus out in the mornings and go for a long walk - just the two of us. This morning was one of those days. In the mid-30s and a wake up time about an hour earlier than necessary, I pulled on my walking shoes and grabbed the leash before stepping out the door with Rufus. The walk we went on is somewhere around 3.5 miles, crossing many streets and one state highway before entering a state park. On our return, where we had just over a mile to return home, we stood at the crosswalk waiting for eight lanes of traffic and the “Walk” signal before proceeding. As I stood there I noticed an elderly Asian woman standing not too far off, beneath a bus stop sign. A bus stop, I might add, that is so rarely used I didn’t even realize the stop was there and I’ve walked or driven past that point almost daily for years. As Rufus and I waited for the light the woman called out, “Excuse me, sir. Do you kno...

Twelve-thirty at night and the neighbors were so loud they woke me up. I heard screaming, yelling, giggling, cries of "No! Stop! STOP!" in various iterations. That's when I decided to pull in some slippers and a sweatshirt to go see what was happening, fully expecting to see a fight or something in the common areas (I live in a condo). What I did see was some neighbors who were being far too loud. So, I asked them, "Hey guys, it's 12:30. Can we turn the volume down a bit?" Through various incarnations of, "Huh?", " What?", and "Go home, old man,"; as well as inquiries about my occupation (because, apparently my occupation matters regarding how loud they're being) they finally agreed to go inside. To which I had to remind them, "you're in a condo. You have neighbors below you, next to you on two sides and within thirty feet of you in every direction. Be aware of that."

You may be, or at least may know, people who posted these sorts of pro-Trump/anti-Clinton propaganda pieces managed by the Russian propaganda machine. Originally shared by David Brin The part of electoral cheating that is proved — Russian disinformation and propaganda. Russia’s increasingly sophisticated propaganda machinery — including thousands of botnets, teams of paid human “trolls,” and networks of websites and social-media accounts — spread misleading articles online with the goal of punishing Democrat Hillary Clinton, helping Republican Donald Trump and undermining faith in American democracy, say independent researchers who tracked the operation. “Two teams of independent researchers found that the Russians exploited American-made technology platforms to attack U.S. democracy at a particularly vulnerable moment.” And mind you, our intelligence services are even more keenly aware of this putsch. So, when President Trump orders them to investigate no further, what kind of a quan...

Excellent read on the Electoral College and what it means to be a democracy. (Protip: we're not a democracy, the USA is a republic ) Originally shared by Edward Morbius "The Electoral College Was Meant to Stop Men Like Trump From Being President" If it’s so unlikely that the electors would defeat Trump, why is the topic even worth discussing? Because, given Trump’s likely ascension to the presidency, Americans must talk differently about democracy itself. Yes, the democratic features of America’s political system are precious. But so are some of the undemocratic ones, the ones that prevent people’s basic rights from being taken from them by a show of hands. Right now, the nature of American public discourse—which treats democracy as an unambiguous good—makes that difficult to say. Rarely do Americans publicly acknowledge the tradeoff between democracy and liberty, between popular will and minority rights, which so concerned the framers. If Trump threatens the rights of Mu...

#Rufus caught and killed two mice tonight. Not his first kills by far. He already has a couple bunnies, a few birds (I think he killed and entire generation here one year), a duck, a few snakes and even some fish under his belt.

Not to include the animals he's chased and didn't catch: a few coyotes, a deer, an owl, a couple of gopher tortoises and even a dolphin he chased along a river in Florida. Rufus loves killing things.

#DonaldTrump is really going to have a bad day if the media truly turns on him, which I hope they do.

Obama is a better person than I am. He's a better person than most. And if you didn't know it already, you may, after reading this entire article. I will endeavor to repeatedly repeat his message to myself, in the hope that it will have a beneficial outcome when I speak to the Trump voters that surround me. “Societies and cultures are really complicated. . . . This is not mathematics; this is biology and chemistry. These are living organisms, and it’s messy. And your job as a citizen and as a decent human being is to constantly affirm and lift up and fight for treating people with kindness and respect and understanding. And you should anticipate that at any given moment there’s going to be flare-ups of bigotry that you may have to confront, or may be inside you and you have to vanquish....

The father was keeping a wary eye on this man while trying to simultaneously play with his children and talk with his wife. I also kept an eye on this man as this is a #TrumpNation now and I fully expected him to start mouthing off at the family. So, I sat there until he left - just in case. Costco suggests, if you see anyone open carrying in their stores, to find a manager and let them know. WalMart, on the other hand, has a policy to follow local ordinances.

"These rule changes will allow the government to search millions of computers with the warrant of a single judge. To me, that’s clearly a policy change that’s outside the scope of an 'administrative change,' and it is something that Congress should consider." http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2016/11/judges-getting-new-powers-to-expand-electronic-surveillance-state/

When people ask me if they can trust the "cloud" my answer is always s resounding No ! For example, a friend of mine, a really nice guy I met here on the Ploos and had the pleasure of hanging out with in real life on a couple of occasions, runs a website management company. He bought a Chromebook for it's simplicity in managing his business. All of his actions, content, photos, etc. were managed from his one Google account.

What happens when you try to troll the ignorant and they swallow it hook, line and sinker? #TrumpNation via Bodhipaksa​ Originally shared by Jason Allen ::headdesk:: "You mentioned Trump, and you’ve probably heard the argument, or the concern, that fake news somehow helped him get elected. What do you make of that? My sites were picked up by Trump supporters all the time. I think Trump is in the White House because of me. His followers don’t fact-check anything — they’ll post everything, believe anything. His campaign manager posted my story about a protester getting paid $3,500 as fact. Like, I made that up.
