This hideous bill Republicans are trying to push through isn’t just about healthcare and food access. It has tons of hidden life altering changes for all of us…

Don't do this. You can get rid of Copilot *without* editing your registry. You need a program called Geek Uninstaller. It's reputable. Check around. Copilot relies on Edge. Without Edge, there is no Copilot. Use Geek Uninstaller, choose Edge, right click, "Force Removal." Easy to do or reverse.

Yup. Also, there's a difference between a rock star (or any popular creator) dying young and one going after living a full life. One feels taken too early while the other feels like a solid rock you've been standing on (and taking for granted) suddenly shattering.

It's almost Valentine's Day so it's my yearly reminder that lilies are DEADLY to cats. Every single part of the lily. Even the tiniest sniff of pollen will send a cat into kidney failure within an hour. Lilies are a death sentence. If you have cats DO NOT have lilies in your home!

The Bluesky population meter is currently at 4.99 million, which means probably within a couple of hours we’ll hit five million users, which is roughly the same amount of people in the Republic of Ireland. Have a pint on that, folks.

Welcome to Bluesky! I post lots of nature photos like birds, frogs, landscapes, bugs, and more. Plus I put up a nature mini-documentary every Saturday. I also repost lots of other nature photographers. I hope you enjoy it here! #birds 🌿

Bare trees with a bird sitting in one are silhouetted against an orange sky after sunset. Water below reflects the sky

A dark blue bird with rust and peach colored face and breast cocks its head and looks towards the camera. It stands on a yellowish leaf

If you joined Bluesky during the Beta, congratulations, you are now officially a Bluesky Elder! You will be assigned a rocking chair, a single cloud to shake a fist at, and a Chesty Gandalf Action Figure and/or Orca pool floatee while supplies last. Enjoy your new, completely inconsequential status!

This has been my experience with other things like the IRA. The assumption is still that the US is doing nothing - the news has not reached younger people at all. I even surprise them by saying US emissions are going down - the assumption is we’re still soaring up

Joe Manchin killed the Expanded Child Tax Credit that lifted millions of children out of poverty because he said the families would waste the money on drugs, luxuries, etc, when we have a mountain of research proving the opposite. But shitty people assume other people are shitty.
