Yeah, the Unabomber was like 16 packages over 17 years. Seems like at a certain point the amount of material needed to construct this many bombs at once becomes noticeable, but maybe not :/

Among many crazy things about DO NOT CONGRATULATE, some senior WH/NatSec official leaked it within hours to @CarolLeonnig @DavidNakamura @jdawsey1
Not many people physically see notes given to any POTUS before a Russia call.

I mean probably because they were legitimately shocked he failed to follow such simple instructions 🤔
#UPDATE: There was no package explosion in the 9800 block of Brodie Ln. Items inside package was not a bomb, rather an incendiary device. At this time, we have no reason to believe this incident is related to previous package bombs. #Breaking #packagebombmurders
Even better, here is the tweet that helped me find that

Knowing that immobilization and restraint can activate the dorsal vagal complex, it makes you wonder if car seats may have played a part in the rise of #autism.
If your kid's been recently injected w/aluminum, you may want to skip the car seat on the way home – just to be safe.
WATCH: Austin police say recent explosion caused by "artillery simulators" dropped off at Goodwill store. Authorities have no reason to believe incident is attempt by copycat and say it is unrelated to other package bombings in the city. http://nbcnews.to/2ppwIh9 https://t.co/vRN8rYxEHC
A man reportedly killed himself with an explosive device early Wednesday as police tried to arrest him in connection with a string of deadly bombings in the Austin, Texas, area this month. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/03/21/595457452/authorities-in-austin-say-latest-package-bombs-sent-by-same-person?utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=npr&utm_term=nprnews&utm_content=20180321
I love this so much because:
1) Turtlenecks are a lab safety violation.
2) So is not tying back long hair.
3) So is pouring into a container that you're directly holding.
4) Nobody uses volumetric flasks like that.
It's not even a good attempt at looking smart.
it looks like she's holding something. A cuvette would make some sense, though you really wouldn't pour something into it from a flask, it's so much easier to use a pipette.
> Yet because the GOP decided against running any candidate in the heavily Democratic district, and Jones successfully met the criteria to make the ballot, he will be the party's nominee.
Okay that's not quite as bad as I thought
I thought the GOP chose him as their candidate in a vote

The bar should be higher than "not registered as a republican", "wasn't the leader of the american nazi party at any point"
Which isn't to say people aren't nice or whatever but we all have demons

Top GOP senator: I'd vote to impeach Trump if he fires Mueller http://hill.cm/ydvNjT4
@puzzlepiece87 The working theory is that the GOP is tired of Trump but doesn't want to actually take any blame for his downfall so they're just kinda hoping the whole affair settles itself without their intervention
@TimStone My money feels very safe being placed on them getting in line like good ducks. them continuing to be too "tired" to do anything as **** continues to hit the fan.

@Yuuki The story has been updated with his spicy takes though, including "Second, if we are going to give women free abortions, why not give men free condoms, or the like?" which like, my dude

I'm not sure how big the explosion was, it seems like an overreaction if you imagine a huge fireball, but more reasonable if it's a limited explosion and the suspect might still be dangerous

lmao the WH spin on DO NOT CONGRATULATE is literally that it's not that Trump refused to follow the directions, he just refuses to read the memos at all
I want you to see the groundbreaking 5 page policy document that Larry Krasner sent out to his team.
Here's Page 1.
Read the first sentence.
FULL STORY: https://theintercept.com/2018/03/20/larry-krasner-philadelphia-da/
I called President Putin of Russia to congratulate him on his election victory (in past, Obama called him also). The Fake News Media is crazed because they wanted me to excoriate him. They are wrong! Getting along with Russia (and others) is a good thing, not a bad thing.......
.....They can help solve problems with North Korea, Syria, Ukraine, ISIS, Iran and even the coming Arms Race. Bush tried to get along, but didn’t have the “smarts.” Obama and Clinton tried, but didn’t have the energy or chemistry (remember RESET). PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH!

Hmm the police released the video from the Uber and oh boy :/
Like it's hard to fault the backup driver because she's not easily visible to the plain eye until it's too late, from the perspective of the video anyway but uhh very unclear how the sensors didn't pick her up in the middle of the road
When they said she "stepped out of the shadows" originally it made it seem like she was behind something, but she was in the shadows between street lights in the middle of a wide road
