I have an idea! Instead of replacing workers with AI, companies could give their employees that use AI a month off in summer since they’ll have all their work done by June! Work smarter not harder!

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces. Equals 10 nuclear reactors Reduces heat island, shades cars The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight. Why aren't we doing this?

I hadn't seen this before. This is pretty remarkable. Earth and Moon in one NASA photo. ht @astrokatie.com

Earth and Moon from DSCOVR NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured this unique view of the Moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth last month. This view shows the fully illuminated “dark side” of the moon that is never visible from Earth. Ian Regan processed this version of the image to account for the Moon's motion.

From January 6 to Alex Pretti, Republicans have continued to twist reality in service of one man and to the disservice of the rest of us and our democracy. We need to continue to speak the truth and call them out on it every. single. time.

25% reduction in all cause mortality over 4 years for those vaccinated against covid, huge study. Wow, this almost suggests covid is implicated in an unbelievable number of deaths. And that vaccinated people should wear respirators if they want to remain abled. www.cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/mrn...

All of these new rulings don’t just affect today, they rewrite precedent. Trump still has three years left, and whatever expanded powers the Court hands him now will automatically pass to the next president as well.

Elon Musk’s new pay package could amount to $100B per year ($1 trillion over ten years!). That's the same as 3.2 million cashiers’ paychecks combined. It’s more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks. It’s more than 2 million janitors’ paychecks. The system is broken.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Breaking: An Epstein survivor just silenced press conference attendees when she delivered the following remarks: “Today we stand in a moment that will decide whether our government belongs to the American people, or to those who prey on them.”

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works. I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.

Many of the propagandists of Autocracy, Inc., have learned from the mistakes of the twentieth century. They don’t offer their fellow citizens a vision of utopia, and they don’t inspire them to build a better world. Instead, they teach people to be cynical and passive, because there is no better world to build. Their goal is to persuade people to mind their own business, stay out of politics, and never hope for a democratic alternative: Our state may be corrupt, but everyone else is corrupt too. You may not like our leader, but the others are worse. You may not like our society, but at least we are strong and the democratic world is weak, degenerate, divided, dying.

“Republican Gov. Phil Scott has “politely declined” a federal request to deploy Vermont National Guard soldiers to Washington, D.C. as part of President Donald Trump’s controversial directive to tamp down on crime.“ It’s the second time he’s turned down Trump.

Phil Scott rejects second request to deploy Vermont National Guard, this time to Washington, D.C.

The Pentagon asked Vermont's Republican governor to send a "few dozen" soldiers to assist in President Donald Trump's controversial crime crackdown, according to Scott's chief of staff.
