" A 12-year-old in California built a working printer for blind readers out of a Lego robot kit for his school science fair, after finding that the machines sold for the job cost about $2,000; the parts in his version came to roughly $350 in shops

A twelve-year-old just proved that assistive technology doesn't need to cost thousands when ingenuity and a Lego kit can do the job for under four hundred dollars."

CSPAN has won the award for Closed Caption of the Year.

“The man was found to be carrying two pistols and a Taser after he was detained…”

“Asked about the man’s intent, the sheriff said: “I think it was to ask her a couple of questions. He was just, you know, pretty aggressive about it.” (Sheriff Greene has endorsed Dr. Acton’s Republican opponent, Vivek Ramaswamy, in the governor’s race.)”

Right, Sheriff. Sounds like he just wanted to ask some questions.

Moron.

Anyone know when Mitch McConnell's funeral was held? Where did they wind up burying him?

This from Cancun Cruz, who famously fled Texas for the beach in the middle of a killer freeze.

Ok, take a deep breath everyone. I’m going to try to explain what is going on in California v. Trump/League of Women Voters v. Trump, the combined cases being heard by Judge Indira Talwani in the Massachusetts District Court, challenging Trump and USPS efforts to take over vote-from-home and disrupt the general election. 1/ #LawFedi

I'm going to KEEP talking about how Senator Rick Scott, the RICHEST man in all of Congress, DEFRAUDED Medicare & is trying to CUT Social Security.

Will you join me?🤚

"Gloria Steinem, trailblazing feminist organizer, dies at 92. For many years she was the face of the women's movement":

Occam's Razor says Mitch McConnell probably died a while ago.

If you don't think the regime is adept at covering up deaths, then you haven't been paying attention.

I know that for some
Halloween
begins on September 1st,
but as you hang spider webs
and put out the giant skeleton
please be aware
that Halloween candy
is currently being recalled
in 13 states
due to undeclared allergens,
so this spooky season
is off to a scary start

From PN: Are voters finally realizing GOP presidents are disasters?

"Trusting the Republicans more on the economy at this point is like trusting Sean Combs to be your babysitter ... "

Vance claimed he’s focused on “doing as much of God’s work as possible,” shrugging that “if that leads to the end times, OK.” https://trib.al/xk1sWD3

@copter_chief When someone like Bill Gates is worrying about the destructive potentials of AI, we should be, too.
Just think of AI-controlled autonomous weapons systems taking their own assessments & decisions, based on huge amounts of information from various sources, be they trustworthy... or not.

AI doesn't know a thing called "mercy".
