Btw this is the juicy bit from that Michigan bomber story
In late August, Allen is accused of placing threatening letters inside polka-dotted envelopes that were addressed to AT&T, Verizon, and “all other carriers” at various locations in northern Michigan, according to an FBI affidavit filed in federal court obtained by The Detroit News. The letters, which were sent from the “Coalition for Moral Telecommunications (CMT),” threatened to “begin destroying inner city tower communication” unless the providers created software to stop the spread of “immoral content.”

Swale council seeks to quash planning decisions issued in error by junior staff member with one application rejected as 'whack'
lots of ads on this link
https://www.kentonline.co.uk/sittingbourne/news/charity-told-proposal-is-whack-in-planning-blunder-253536/
Officials have been left red faced after a junior staff member was unwittingly let loose on approving and rejecting planning notices, with one applicant, a charity boss, told their scheme was turned down because: “Your proposal is whack”.
The blunder came about when the Mid Kent Planning Support team, which handles the online submissions on behalf of Swale council, was trying to resolve software issues.
In doing so, five ‘dummy’ decisions, used to test the website was working, were accidentally published.
Among them was the sarcastic refusal to a desperate bid by Happy Pants animal sanctuary to stay on its site in Bobbing, near Sittingbourne.
The charity received the response “your proposal is whack” and “no mate, proper whack”. Making good the mistaken planning decisions is now set to cost £8,000.
Terry Rowse butchers’ change of use to a takeaway in Chaucer Road, Sittingbourne, was also turned down, with the official comments reading simply “no”, and “just don’t”, while the partial demolition of The Wheatsheaf pub in East Street, Sittingbourne, was granted, with the response “incy, wincy, spider”.
Meanwhile, an application for the change of use for a barn to provide storage for seeds and crop protection products, precision farm services and office space in Bredgar Road, Tunstall, was granted, as was the fifth application, for the demolition of the Old House At Home pub in Sheerness High Street, to make way for flats. The latter's comment was “why am I doing this, am I the chosen one?”
Swale council is now seeking to quash the planning decisions issued in error.
It said that, on August 19, officers for the Mid Kent Planning Support team were trying to find a solution for issues with the software behind the public access site but, during the exercise, ‘dummy’ decision notices on five randomly selected Swale applications were published on the live system.
After being alerted to the mistake, the decision notices were swiftly removed from the site, but legal advice has subsequently confirmed they are legally binding and must be overturned before the correct decisions are made.

WALMART REMOVES LISTING FOR KIDS’ TOY THAT SINGS ABOUT COCAINE
This is truly so random
Ania Tanner, a grandmother from Ontario, Canada, was shocked when an innocent-looking dancing cactus toy she bought for her granddaughter at Walmart started swearing and singing about doing cocaine in Polish, CTV News reports.
“This toy uses swear words and talking about cocaine use,” Tanner told the broadcaster. “This is not what I ordered for my granddaughter.”
Unsurprisingly, Walmart yanked the toy from its online store — although people had been complaining about the toy for at least five months, according to CTV.
But its rapping skills in Polish weren’t age-appropriate. In addition to rapping about cocaine, the jovial succulent also covered other pleasantries such as suicide and depression.
“It just so happens that I am Polish and when I started to listen to the songs and I heard the words,” Tanner told CTV News. “I was in shock. I thought what is this some kind of joke?”
“It’s about taking five grams of cocaine and being alone… It’s a very depressing song,” she added.
As it turns out, the Chinese manufacturer apparently had no idea it was using a song by Polish rapper Cypis — who, according to CTV News, had no idea his song was being used for a children’s toy at all.

Apparently the buskers aren't really playing the violin, so buyer beware.
we had something similar in our little town, except it was an accordion player. he would set up with amplification in the local grocery store's parking lot and wail away for hours in front of signs stating "hungry please help" and "out of work due to pandemic". anyone with a minimal amount of musical knowledge could tell that the music coming out of the speakers wasn't coming from his instrument - he was ok, but not great, at miming along to the prerecorded music. only lasted for a month before he disappeared... wonder where he ended up.

"Hey my friend's plane broke, so buy me a new one so I don't have to borrow my friend's junky plane."
it wasn't his plane, but apparently they thought they could use the incident so the rubes would pony up so they could bring back a new Tr**p Force One to the skies... apparently his 757 is sitting unused somewhere unable to be flown in disrepair... so just grifting away as per usual...
-
yeah, his personal 757 was falling apart just as he was elected in 2016. since he suddenly had access to Air Force One, they mothballed his 757. now after all those years of disuse, it apparently needs millions of dollars in maintenance before it can fly again - i vaguely remember reading that both engines need to be replaced.
trump already has tens of millions of dollars in his superPACs, and he could use that money to fix up his plane (lots of flexibility there, and a plane is a legitimate "transportation" expense) but of course donnie isn't going to use "his" money - why pass up a perfectly good opportunity to get the suckaz to pay for it?
grifters gonna grift.

Parliamentary system where coalitions rule. When your coalition starts to disagree, you have two choices - dissolve it yourself or have it dissolved for you. In this instance, they have agreed to dissolve it themselves and have yet another election. 5th time in 4 years....

Oh God No: Morrissey Actually Showed Up This Time (https://thehardtimes.net/blog/oh-god-no-morrissey-actually-showed-up-this-time/)
my date is suuuuper into Morrissey. All part of the plan: Morrissey no-shows, date gets bummed, I swoop in with a little bit of the ol’ “Don’t worry baby, let’s go listen to The Queen Is Dead at my place and throw gladioli all over our naked bodies” routine. Super solid plan, right? But then this pompadour with Tourette’s had to show up and shit all over it.

‘I’m still alive’ declares Angus man after discovering his own grave in cemetery
this whole story is amazing
Mr Hattel said he had realised something was not right because his social life has been deathly quiet for the past three or four months.
He said: “People think that I’m dead.
“My phone hasn’t rung for three or four months. I’ve been confused by it all but now I know why nobody has been calling.
Plot Twist
“I don’t even want to be buried – I plan to be cremated.”
He has put the blame for the headstone at the door of his ex-wife, from whom he separated some 26 years ago.

Maryland governor signs bill banning the sale of speculative tickets

Maryland governor signs bill banning the sale of speculative tickets
i'm curious to see how this will be enforced. seems that the best way would be for resellers having to prove they have the tickets before they can list them... so upload a photo of the tickets - which can be be faked? show a receipt - which can also be faked? resellers need to hook into original tiket retailer (TM, etc.) to provide confirmation of ticket owners - which would be expensive and potentially have privacy concerns? or will this just be a weak-assed fine on resellers if they're proven to have sold speculative tickets? (so, don't get caught...)
