We had a power outage last week.
Our backup battery kept the servers running for exactly 47 seconds.
It's supposed to last 45 minutes.
I investigated.
Somebody had plugged a 200-gallon aquarium into the same battery backup as our servers.
Two heaters.
Three pumps.
An automatic feeder.
The entire fish tank was running on our disaster recovery infrastructure.
I asked Facilities who authorized this.
Apparently the aquarium belongs to the CEO.
It was installed in 2019 to promote a calming work environment.
I explained that during an outage, the fish were consuming electricity meant to keep the company operational.
Facilities said the fish couldn't be disconnected because they're living animals.
I said the servers support 600 employees.
They said fish are employees too, in a sense.
I escalated to the CEO.
He said the aquarium was a critical part of company culture.
So I submitted a request for a separate backup battery.
Finance rejected it.
"Why does IT need additional power infrastructure?"
I explained.
They asked whether we could prioritize the servers over the fish.
The CEO said no.
We now have a disaster recovery policy that prioritizes six koi over our entire accounting system.
Yesterday the CEO asked why our recovery plan doesn't meet industry standards.
I told him the industry generally doesn't include fish in its uptime calculations.

With the reported investigations unfolding, the Alaska decoy scandal has the makings of a major scandal with possible criminal and civil elements. Staffers would be wise to "lawyer up," but they may want to avoid their campaign lawyers for the moment... jonathanturley.org/2026/10/2…

ICE Pulled Over a Tourist From 2019. He Was Wearing a Washington Child-Welfare Jacket.
Olympia can't tell you who's on its payroll, but ICE can, apparently during a routine traffic stop.
On Monday, ICE's Seattle office stopped a car and arrested Stanley Robert Kungu Muthee, a Kenyan national. According to ICE, as reported by Fox News, he flew in on a B-2 tourist visa on Feb. 6, 2019, and simply never left. That's a seven-year vacation, and nobody even sent a postcard.
The kicker: he was wearing a Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families jacket and carrying a DCYF ID. Per Fox, he admitted he works there. DCYF confirmed he's been on staff since Aug. 16, 2024.
The state's defense is a masterpiece of bureaucratic shrugging. DCYF spokeswoman Nancy Gutierrez said he "provided the appropriate documentation when he was hired, which indicated he was authorized to work," including "a valid United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) number with no expiration date," and that the agency has "not been notified of a change in his status."
Translation: the paperwork was fine, so everything is fine. Never mind that, as DHS pointed out, a work permit is not the same thing as legal status and doesn't shield anyone from deportation.
ICE didn't bother with nuance. Its official account posted:
"AMERICAN TAXPAYER DOLLARS SHOULD NEVER PAY THE SALARIES OF ILLEGAL ALIENS!" and said illegal aliens have "NO BUSINESS" working in agencies responsible for American children.
To be fair, and somebody has to be, we don't know what his job at DCYF actually was, and he hasn't been convicted of anything. Overstaying a visa is a civil immigration matter, and he may yet contest it.
But here's the real question for Washington. This is the state that mails a ballot to everyone on the rolls, sues the feds over enforcement, and calls itself a proud sanctuary. If the agency in charge of foster kids can't spot a seven-year visa overstay on its own payroll, how many others are there? And would Olympia ever have found out if ICE hadn't pulled someone over first?
Five days before Election Day, it's worth asking who's checking the checkers.
So, Washington: should every state agency that works with kids be required to run E-Verify and a status check, or is "the paperwork looked fine" good enough?

The most common torture inflicted by the Muslims during the Ottoman period was whipping. The usual victims were the Christians. It was the introductory torment in every other torture, so common in the persecutions of Christians that the phrase became proverbial: "I will whip you until you change your faith."
The victim was tied with exposed back, their clothes torn, and the whipping began. The executioners were usually Turkish soldiers with robust physiques, so that the blows were both critical and powerful. The number of blows was either predetermined by the court or (most of the time) left to the discretion of the executioners. Muslim judges (qadis) observed the torture. If the victim showed that they could not endure the completion of the number of blows and their life was in immediate danger, then the judge placed the Quran under the executioner's armpit. Unable to raise his arm high (since the holy text must not fall to the ground), he delivered the remaining blows with less intensity. After the whipping, the victim was often left helpless without care, or thrown into prison. In most cases, permanent disabilities remained on the body.
Also, one of the harshest tortures of the Ottoman Muslims was impalement. Crowds surrounded the victim and mocked them, suggesting they convert to Islam and insulting their faith, family, and nationality.
The stakes were set up in a specific area, usually in the village or town square. The victim was dragged there in public humiliation, as usual. After being severely whipped, their clothes were torn, their hands were tied tightly behind their back, and they were "seated" on the stake. Then weights were hung on their legs so that they would slide down and be skewered on the stake. In many cases, the sadism did not end with skewering the victim. The spit (with the victim on it) was placed horizontally over a fire or burning coals, and the victim was roasted alive like a lamb. The fearsome and terrible Muslim Albanian Ali Pasha of Ioannina was famous for slowly roasting his victims, thinning the coals under them to prolong the agony and the entertainment of himself and his entourage. In many cases, he forced relatives to torture and kill their own kin to avoid impalement and roasting themselves.

This Alaska stunt is not an isolated situation. This was not just a handful of Alaska Democrats trying to steal a race.
This came all the way from the top of the Democrat Party, and their foreign handlers, and is part of the Dems’ broader plot to gain power and overthrow Trump.
This is an extension of the “treasonous coup” that has been going on ever since Trump came down the escalator.
We are witnessing a party that is in open rebellion and trying to overthrow the will of the American People, by subverting our elections.
We are witnessing an insurrection.

All 41 assault rapes reported in Oslo, Norway, between 2006 and 2008 were attributed to perpetrators described as having non-Western immigrant backgrounds.
After that, detailed statistics on the nationalities of assault perpetrators was made unavailable for the public.

Doing chores as a kid predicts how your life turns out better than your IQ does.
Harvard followed 456 boys from Boston's poorest neighborhoods from age 14 all the way to 47. The ones who worked hard as kids, chores, odd jobs, whatever, grew up mentally healthier and had better relationships. That mattered more than how smart they were or how much money their family had.
Kentrell kind of explained why without meaning to. Coolest man on earth, but hella structure.
A Berkeley psychologist named Diana Baumrind spent the '60s studying exactly that combo. Parents who were warm and strict at the same time raised the most capable, independent kids. Strict with no warmth did worse. So did fun with no rules.
Look at his dad's list. Out the door by 6:50am. Homework gets checked, no excuses. No dishes left in the sink. In bed by 10. Plus a four-week deep cleaning rotation that ends with him hosing down the outside of the house.
Then look at what he gets back. Friday after 6 is his once chores are done. Saturday he can be out on the block till 10 and home by 11. And the Sunday laundry line says Dad will help if he's not working.
Pretty much every rule on there earns him something. An 8-year-old can understand that deal.
When you start matters too. Marty Rossmann at the University of Minnesota went back through 84 kids from Baumrind's research. The ones doing chores at 3 or 4 were doing the best in their mid-20s, and it predicted that better than IQ did. Kids who didn't get chores till 15 or 16 mostly resented them, and it backfired.
Most of us grew up with this. In a 2014 survey of 1,001 American adults, 82% said they had regular chores as kids. Only 28% make their own kids do them.
A kid who was 10 when that survey ran is 22 now. Some of the people in these replies are about that age, saving a stranger's dad's chore list so they can run it on themselves.

Dear Reporters:
Your silence is deafening.
You are cowards and hacks.
Every one of you who refuses to speak up.
James O’Keefe on the Felony Charges for Exposing Fraud in Minnesota:
This is not political. It is fundamental. It is about whether citizens still have the right to question their government. This is now a landmark First Amendment case, and every American’s right to speak truth to power has been put on the line.
Weaponized lawfare does not work against me. It has always backfired on the people who come after me. Most people find criminal charges and lawsuits stressful; the process becomes a form of punishment. But I love this process because it gives me the opportunity to expose injustice at the highest levels. My foundation will be indemnifying members of the Justice League, including @camhigby for their lawful reporting.
I’m calling on all Americans, and especially all journalists, to stand united on a message to the prosecutors in Minnesota: the politics of fear will not prevail in the United States of America.

Americans need to take this WAY more seriously
“There's a reason why the globalists have imported, and the communists have imported enormous numbers of Muslims into our societies. It's because they want to use them as a battering ram to break down national sovereignty and what's left of Christian civilization. So, we absolutely need to get serious about this”
“Trump's first National Security Council, the Director of Policy and Planning, Rich Higgins, did a brilliant memo where he said that there's an international coalition of Muslims, Islamists, socialists, communists, globalists, and their goal, he said, is to destroy the United States of America, not just as a nation, but even as an ideal.”
If you’re curious as to what that “Ideal” is that they’re working to destroy is, it was included in the memo
POTUS & Political Warfare: “The ideal” is the traditional American founding vision centered on individual rights grounded in natural law, the Constitution, national sovereignty and a Judeo-Christian cultural foundation
Meaning our god given rights, they want to destroy that and put your under complete control and surveillance
The Democrat Party is working for their globalist foreign donors to bring down America. They are the party of Islam and Muslims will use Democrats for the Islamic takeover of America

🚨995 Polymarket accounts just got drained through Polymarket's own website. Let me explain how, because this one should scare everyone in crypto.
No fake link. No shady airdrop. These people were on the real Polymarket dot com on Thursday.
Polymarket's site loaded a script from DebugBear, a tool whose only job is measuring how fast the page loads. Somebody poisoned it.
Once it was running in your browser, it grabbed your logged-in trading session and started dumping every open position you had, first at 3% under market, then at half price, then at the lowest price possible. Then it swapped the whole balance into POL and shipped it to the attacker. Stablecoins can be frozen. POL can't.
It even reported back after every hit. Your wallet, your country, your portfolio size, whether the transfer went through. All of it sent home through DebugBear's own data endpoints.
The attacker's wallet went from empty to $2M in about 45 minutes. Conor Grogan's final count was $2.65M.
One trader said he lost $800K and watched every position get sold. His friend got hit for $600K.
Polymarket flipped the exchange to cancel-only, paused the relayer and says everyone will be made whole. Credit where it's due.
But this is the third time this year. About $700K in May. About $3M in June, through a hacked third-party script, same as now.
I've been phished. I've been drained. Stay in crypto long enough and it happens to you. But the people on Thursday did nothing wrong. They opened the right website.
Not one of these three hacks touched a smart contract. We spent ten years making the blockchain unbreakable and then let a page speed tracker sit right next to people's money.

Adam Carolla says it took 10 DAYS before he heard about the concealed carry dad who ran into his daughters’ elementary school and took down the shooter.
He thought about it, and he knows exactly why it didn’t get more airtime.
“IT F*CKS UP EVERY THEME THEY HAVE ABOUT GUN OWNERSHIP.”
CAROLLA: “That was the first time I’ve ever seen a picture of this guy [Kaylub Giamanco], heard him talk.”
“He says, ‘I didn’t save enough kids, and I’m sorry to the parents of the kids who I couldn’t save.’ And now he can’t sleep at night because he can still hear the screams of the children begging for their lives.”
This man should be a household name. A national hero.
But as Carolla explains, his story wrecks the picture of gun owners the media wants in your head.
“The theme of the dad who wanted to protect his kids ... and put an end to this school shooter is NOT a theme they like.”
“MSNBC, CNN, LA Times, THEY HATE THIS STORY.”
Daniel Penny, meanwhile?
CAROLLA: “That guy is everywhere because they love the theme of a blonde-haired guy choking out a black guy.”
When a story doesn’t fit the narrative, you never hear about it. When it does, it’s all you hear about.

Garbage election systems are everywhere you look and here is a "poster boy" showing it. Tabulators have to go through Logic and Accuracy testing, then be secured with a one-time-use seal. Yet the brilliance of @MayorMKE City of Milwaukee is using seals that can be peeled off, put back on, peeled off again and so forth and so on.
Just last week an election employee was caught on camera in Arizona loading and/or changing software on tabulators that already went through the Logic and Accuracy testing.
And Maricopa County admitted during Kari Lake’s court proceedings in 2022 to “install[ing] new memory cards on its Election Day tabulators” on October 14, 17, and 18, after the statutorily required October 11 logic and accuracy (L&A) testing. The tabulators went on to fail on election day, disenfranchising thousands of voters across Maricopa County and robbing @KariLake of her victory over then-Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs. @WethePeopleAZA1 @EmeraldRobinson @WisGOP @WisConDigest @RegJoeShow @DonMillis @AGToddBlanche @AAGDhillon @realDonaldTrump

🚨WOW: University of British Columbia student Tim Chen made international headlines after discovering that taking a round-trip flight to class twice a week was radically cheaper than paying sky-high Vancouver rent!
Faced with a housing market where a basic one-bedroom apartment averaged $2,500 a month, the senior student gave up renting and moved back home with his parents in Calgary.
Because he only had in-person lectures on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Chen booked low-cost flights for his 800-mile round-trip journey. He would wake up in Calgary, fly to Vancouver in the morning, take the bus to campus, attend his classes, and fly back home that same night.
At roughly $150 per round-trip ticket, eight flights a month brought his total commute bill to $1,200—less than half the cost of renting in Vancouver.
Chen even used the flight time to study and sleep, turning a viral housing crisis into an ingenious personal life hack.
Out-of-the-box thinking at its absolute finest!

We did not apply for a ballot or deposit a ballot or attempt to vote.
We showed an elections official saying “you are the ID” and confirming one could vouch for eight others who were not there.
If that’s a crime, anyone who speaks with a polling official and asks questions is also committing a crime. Journalism is not a crime.
Minnesota law clearly states that no individual shall intentionally misrepresent the individual’s identity in applying for a ballot, depositing a ballot in a ballot box or attempting to vote by means of a voting machine or electronic voting system.

Breaking footage from Denver Colorado!
Two more illegal alien child sex offenders taken off the streets today!
Each of these men had convictions with over eight years in state prison for child sex crimes. Each of these men had detainers put on them by ICE while they were in custody. And each of these men were released without the ICE detainers being honored because of Colorado’s sanctuary policies that protect illegal aliens rather than American citizens and victims of illegal alien crime!
God Bless ICE for the work they do to protect America! To hell with anyone who gets in their way!

There were five slave trades. You were taught about only one. 🏴🇬🇧
One. The Atlantic. Twelve million Africans shipped to the Americas. Britain banned it in 1807, then hunted it for sixty years.
Two. The Barbary trade. A million Europeans taken to North Africa. Britain bombarded Algiers in 1816.
Three. The Saharan trade. A thousand years of caravans north across the desert. Britain had its northern end banned. Tripoli, 1857.
Four. The East African trade. Twenty thousand people a year through one customs house. Britain forced the market shut. 5 June 1873.
Five. The Ottoman trade. Raiders sold Eastern Europeans south for three hundred years. Britain made the Sultan ban it in 1854.
It cost sixty years and two thousand sailors. Nobody else fought all five. 🙏🇬🇧
It isn't over. Mauritania only made it a crime in 2007. Fifty million people are in slavery today.
Someone has to remember who started the fight. ⚓🇬🇧💪
