Keep your existing bottle and get this lil guy, enough concentrated fluid to make 55 gallons of windshield wash.

It was incredible to behold these telescopes in Florence. These were actually used by Galileo, as he opened humanity’s eyes to the real solar system and our place in it.

The crime | The accused
A very nice loaf of focaccia bread lies on a tile floor next to a dog food dish. It has been gnawed upon. A gray pup sits on a dark sofa. She feels no shame, but maybe she ate a bit too much.

Are you guys actually listening to what Obama said? He specifically cited Mamdani as an example of someone who excels at plain-spoken messaging. Am I taking crazy pills?

This statement is meant to be left-punching, but notice that the most popular left-wing candidates (Bernie, Mamdani, AOC) are superb at plain-spokenness, and it is the moderate wing that usually offers language that has been optimized and focus-grouped to death

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy
“From this distant vantage point, the Earth might not seem of any particular interest. But for us, it's different. Consider again that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar", every "supreme leader", every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.” -Uncle Carl

With alt text. Unfortunately it got truncated I think
"The NBA stands firmly and without hesitation beside New York AG Letitia James. Today's indictment is unjust and dangerous. It represents the continued weaponization of our nation's justice system for political gain.
The President has crossed a red line that no leader in this country's history has crossed before. Directing the DOJ to target an independent, duly elected state attorney general for doing her job strikes at the heart of our democracy.
AG James has dedicated her career to fairness and the rule of law. She has done what every public servant should do which is follow the facts and apply the law without fear or favor. To see her integrity attacked through baseless charges is an assault on the very foundation of justice itself.
We now see the result of politics overtaking principle. Career prosecutors determined that there was no evidence to support these charges. They were pushed out and replaced with individuals whose only qualification is their loyalty to a single man, not to the Constitution or the law. That is corruption. That is abuse of power. And that is why we must all speak out.
This is not just about one person or one case. It is about whether the justice system will serve the people or be used as a tool of political revenge. Even leaders from across the political spectrum have expressed concern. They know what is at stake. If this can happen to an attorney general who stands on the side of truth, it can happen to anyone who dares to uphold it.
For more than one hundred years, the NBA has been the conscience of this profession. We have stood for the independence of the judiciary, the dignity of the law, and the protection of those who fight for justice. We will continue to do so now.
AG James has said she is not fearful. Her faith remains unshaken, and she knows, as we know, that no weapon formed against her shall prosper.
The NBA calls upon every lawyer, judge, and citizen who believes in justice to stand united in this moment. Our silence cannot…

Speaking of Trump and the Nobel Prize, did you know that most of the golden baubles in the Oval Office are awards to Mr. Trump? For example the one just behind him in this photo was awarded to him by Arby’s, for ordering 5 “Big Arb” combo meals in the same week.

I like your message, but this bar chart is misleading. The red bar is labeled 76.4 but the vertical extent looks more like 72. The blue bar is worse. It looks like it ends close to 100, not 81.5.
