To follow-up — I just read @donatoarts.bsky.social's Facebook write-up, the details of which are extremely depressing. I'm sharing the link here, because it appears he's left it unlocked in order to spread the word and warn other professionals. This saddens me. www.facebook.com/donato.gianc...

Do not become numb to how disgusting it is to hear an American president encouraging an enemy to “take out” two major American cities.

If there is any confusion after you speak as to whether you are rooting for two american cities to be hit by a nuclear weapon you probably should not be president of the united states

Donald Trump has always been enormously stupid, but now he's also dangerously insane.

Trump: "With the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay ... let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

An American president is encouraging an enemy to destroy American cities. This is treason, though he will claim we are not at war.

Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

AI is just like the internet, or social media—it’s a technology which could be used for maximal benefit, but instead has been captured by a handful of oligarchs. I think it’s always important to distinguish between new technologies and the ownership & governance structures they’re embedded within.

In actual democracies, it doesn't matter "which party runs elections." You don't "need a plan to vote." There aren't never-ending pitched legal battles to maintain access to suffrage. The authoritarian nonsense isn't tolerated. We could be like other, more serious countries, & just have elections.

The first Peanuts strip by Charles M. Schulz was published on October 2, 1950.
Four black and white panels of a boy and girl sitting on steps.
1st panel: Charlie Brown is approaching and the boy says:
"Well! Here comes ol' Charlie Brown!" 
2nd panel: As Charlie Brown passes, he says "Good ol' Charlie Brown...yes, sir!" 
3rd panel: "Good ol' Charlie Brown..." 
4th panel: Once Charlie is gone, "How I hate him!"

I’ve been saying that the insurrection didn’t stop on January 6, but that the entire second Trump administration is literally a government ran by a bloodthirsty right wing mob determined to drown democracy. The GOP’s crusade against Jack Smith is just one facet of it

Donald Trump is not himself the disease of our politics. He’s just the worst symptom. The disease is the system that allows corporations to buy and sell politicians so they can rig it against the rest of us. Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All.

The military can no longer expect to operate from invulnerable bases near the front. But it’s hard to imagine that the armed forces can focus on such a major strategic reorientation when they are dealing with Hegseth’s destabilizing political purges & his retrograde T-count demands. wapo.st/4jsqNEo

Beautiful vintage #infographic on the ceiling & speed of different aircraft (via Reddit bit.ly/4c2bMCs)
Vintage infographic titled "Service ceiling (ft)" plots the service ceiling (maximum altitude) of various aircraft against their maximum speed in miles per hour. The data spans from 1916 to 1963, covering biplanes, monoplanes, and jet aircraft. The trend shows a steady increase in both speed and altitude over time as aviation technology advanced.

The Kennedy Center joins the Reflecting Pool, Lafayette Park and sort of the White House itself (no tours) where supposed renovations have led to indefinite loss of public access. After taxpayer funded plans/construction, these places are fenced off and closed down, not improved.
