help me out: how do I compel Facebook to unblock my account? I need to use it as a phonebook, really, but the faceless admins at Facebook must have thought my idea to start a restaurant review group in Santa Cruz County was too wild and out of control. Actually very irritating.

Started a Facebook group yesterday for restaurant reviews in my California County, invited a hundred friends, and then my login immediately stopped working. Apparently, they seem to want more control over uses of Facebook than I'm comfortable with.

If slow ballot counting in California bugs you, remember: 40 million people.

It looks like at least 50 people were waiting in line to go to Steve Hilton's town hall in Fresno. Good on you, Steve! I wonder if your "Califordable" message is going to resonate with independent voters on Tuesday.

Hilton and Steyer stink like big$$ to me: bland, boring, no substance, neutral, inert, lots of glossy ads in every PO box. Becerra is the party version of this kind of a Trojan horse. Thurmond and Porter just seem half there. Don't trust any candidate but Chad Bianco #California

Acetaminophen (AKA paracetamol, active ingredient in Tylenol) has a toxic dose of 4000 mg, 33% greater than the recommended max daily dose. If you're fine taking a drug where if you accidentally take a bit more at one time you may suffer "severe liver damage", well, good luck.

I'm finally fed up with Gmail's annoying programming. Can't they make it so when you load your Promotions emails and start to scan them they don't repopulate with advertisements so you immediately lose what you're trying to read as soon as you start reading. Very disconcerting

I wonder if Jimmy Kimmel is hiring new writers, now that Cole Tomas Allen is in custody?

@AFergusonFTC @FBIDirectorKash The guy who makes the glitterbomb videos on Youtube is probably the sharpest guy ferreting out fraud via cold calling corrupt agencies. It seems like the FBI and the FTC should get hyper-proactive in restricting the capacity of some of these actors

To further deny sexually improper behavior maybe Cuomo and Weiner should run as an independent ticket in 2028? I'm thinking Oscar!

I feel like Californians categorically reject Trump's endorsement in the Gov's race. Because of the primary system in California we will be stuck with one of exactly two candidates in 56 days (June 2nd). Hopefully one of them will not be the brit who thinks we want him to lead

Wow, it's almost like you would think it was DJT at that Covid-19 era photo with Hilton instead of Gavin Newsom. I don't think Californians want a New Yorker picking a Brit as a weak option to represent California Conservatism. Sorry, not sorry.

Such a weak candidate for Governor of CA: Steve Hilton! (with endorsement from Trump, and a friend of Newsom's!) There is NO chance, ZERO, such a stunt candidate (no experience, credibility or substance) could EVER earn my vote. I think CA agrees. Bianco for CA Governor!

The New York Times interviewed me today, one of three journalists contributing to an article they wrote about an Earthquake right near me. I believe they quoted me. I can't read the article: can't afford the paywall. Ugh. How stupid. Legacy media paywalls are depressing.

Multiple recent unmanned moon landers have toppled or failed. Tell me again why you think self-driving cars are smart enough to preserve all human life.

the Artemis mission, and the Orion system more generally, are impressive engineering but if we become truly spacefaring we'll have to have missions with dramatically higher specific thrust with the engines to scale it down to a manageable level. Then we can go whenever, right?

I'm not going to sugar coat it, I haven't laughed at something Kimmel has said in probably 6 years. That's how low my interest level is in his crude lectures which pretend to be comedy. That bad, actually.

Amazon and UberEats drop and leave my items at a strange house 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆. This feels like they aren't trying. What would be wrong with us uploading a photo of what our place looks like so the poor driver knows if they are making a mistake or not. Duh.

Every automaker seems to be trying to make a new classic, except Asian automakers who seem like they are mainly looking for American place names in the song "I've been everywhere" by Johnny Cash, and designing illogical-looking aerodynamic blobs on wheels to vaguely fit the name.
