Oh like you don't get targeted clickbait ads that just say 'snack box.' It's TABS!
Hello and good Monday to you! Programming note! I made everyone take the week off because they all still had like more than 10 vacation days remaining and I don't want to have to pay them cash money for that shit! So expect a few "evergreen" posts this week, Liz on Rudy (also evergreen!), and me sitting here desperately trying to remember what is "writing." Now tabs!

And they fired Sidney Powell? Didn't fire Sidney Powell? Don't even know her, she just got the coffee? Unclear, because I'm too high to read this right now.

For Christ's sake. California contracted Bank of America to handle the state's unemployment payments, and it's fucking it all up.
Bank of America, whose contract is up next July, declined to answer detailed questions about how many unemployed Californians are still unable to use their debit cards, how much money has been withdrawn from accounts flagged for potential fraud, when and how claimants may be paid back or how much the bank has made in fees on the cards. The state told CalMatters that some 377,500 debit cards were frozen this fall and as of Thursday, around 350,000 accounts remain impacted, meaning progress has been slow.
Of course they also get to charge transaction fees, the whole thing is just GREAT! — CalMatters
