The backers of Prop 45 are counting on the public not being able to tell infill homes near transit from building new roads into wildland / fire areas for sprawl's sake. EB4E recommends a NO on 45 this fall. eastbayforeveryone.org/2026/03/05/s...

My assemblymember posted an AI image of Becerra with a stethoscope for a person with three ears. I made fun of it and now she's in my DMs telling my that I'm being culturally insensitive because AI art of people with three ears is how her gente express support for people who look like them.

My unique $100k R&D ocean floor gravimeter was lost at sea through unfortunate events. No funds for ship time for recovery so my PhD supervisor mortgaged his house & sent me. No pressure. I was in the lab with the ROV team when it showed up on sonar. Cheering erupted over the radio from the bridge.

I live in Swalwell’s neck of the woods and have a lot of political friends who know him personally, and I was dreading how some of them would react. Surprisingly, only one of them is holding on to Swalwell for dear life.

This is a cool effort by a school system to leverage publicly owned land to create thousands of housing units, affordable to teachers. School districts own huge amounts of well-located, underutilized land that they could use for such housing projects. But few districts are actually doing so.

The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me. It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."
I Work Very Hard, And I Would Like To Try Cake

By A Horse

Hello. I am a horse. I work very hard at my job of being a horse. When humans say move the heavy thing, I move the heavy thing. When humans sit on top of me and pull on my head, I carry them where they want to go. The main food the humans give me is hay and oats. But I am thinking it would be nice to have a different food.

I am thinking I would like to try cake.

Yes, yes. Cake. I know all about it. When humans eat cake, it is in glad times. It is the food for a celebration, such as when a woman becomes 47. I have seen cake on the Fourth of July. When humans have a cake, they stand around it and clap hands and smile and say happy birthday at each other. Sometimes there are beautiful markings on a cake, such as balloons or a pink shape.

Sometimes the top of a cake is on fire and a boy must blow on the fire with mouth wind. This is the scariest cake. I do not want this kind. But I will eat any other cake. Any cake that is not the fire cake that tries to kill the boy.

Please understand: I do not get money for doing work. I do not get to go inside the house. All I am either doing my horse job or standing in my pen or eating food off the floor. I always do these things. But I have never once gotten cake and I would like it very much.

I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children. I am more helpful to the farm. Children do not move the heavy things like me or let anyone ride on them. And yet they get cake. Maybe the humans will realize this. Maybe they will say, "You  know who deserves cake? That horse. That horse whose back we are always on."

Every day I dream about what it will be like if I get to eat cake. Here is what will happen. First, I will walk to the cake and putt my nose at it like hrrfff to make and stomping my hooves to make sure it is not a snake. Then I will trot in a circle to show that I am a horse and I am large. After that, I will nuzzle the cake to …

If Artemis is going up then it gives me an excuse to once again post this photo, the only one to contain every human being in the universe but one.
Michael Collins, the chap who took this photograph, remains the only person on earth to have taken a photo that had everyone in shot aside himself.

When I hear men worshipping guns and talking about how there’s nothing that will stop them from defending their family, my mind goes to Naaman in the Bible. Do you remember Naaman? He was a great military leader, and he also had leprosy. 1/

Personally, I'm pretty amused by WB desperately trying to wring a movie out of any stray comma in LOTR, while just out of reach lie the rich treasures of The Silmarillion, which they can never touch as cosmic punishment for pulling the Hollywood accounting trick on the Tolkien estate 25 years ago.

Dolores Huerta Day is already a state holiday in California. I'm reaching out to my state legislatures to ask them to elevate it to fully replace that man's holiday. My son should get the day off from school to celebrate a leader and a survivor, not because it's a rapist's birthday.
