We're constantly told that women can never compete with men and yet Kelsey Pfendler is about to set the record for the fastest solo row from California to Hawaii, beating the men's record by a full week. What an incredible feat of athleticism, endurance, and grit.
A promotional graphic featuring a photograph of a woman, Kelsey Pfendler, rowing a specialized ocean rowboat alone on open water under an overcast sky. The white boat is designed for long distances, featuring enclosed cabins at the bow and stern, solar panels on the rear cabin, and various mounted navigational antennas. The hull is decorated with vibrant pink, purple, and blue swirling wave graphics.
​Several sponsor logos are visible along the side of the boat, including Pasha Hawaii, Hatch River Expeditions, Concept2, Güntner, and the cursive Lily logo near the stern.
​Text overlaid on the image reads:

The reason news organizations seem so ridiculous is that they don't have the grammar to express that Trump is just lying and has no idea what he's doing or talking about. They have to quote him because they keep insisting that he's president, rather than simply ignoring him on stuff like this.

In drought-stricken Texas, people are being told to cut back. Meanwhile, a data center wants 50,000 gallons a day. Texans shouldn’t come second to tech barons. Sign the petition to stop AI data centers >> www.claytontuckertx.com/stop_ai_cent... #Texas #Water #Drought #AIDataCenters
Screenshot of a Facebook post discussing water use concerns in Crowell, Texas. The visible text reads: “Crowell residents are limited to 2000 gallons of water per MONTH while the Frontera hyperscale data center wants to use 50,000 gallons per DAY.

In a drought stricken area of Texas how is this even allowed?” followed by “... See more.”

Below the text is a photo from a meeting inside the Foard County Commissioners Court room, with several residents seated around tables and the official “Foard County Commissioners Court” seal mounted on the wall behind them. The image highlights local concern over data center water usage during drought conditions.
