However in the sleep/driving/etc camp, I'd argue that Boston should be on Atlantic time either way and then maybe I'd feel differently. But as a human who can't take melatonin and it takes weeks to get back to normal because of autoimmune stuff... maybe not. 🤷‍♀️ New data is good. Things have changed

Sure and I agree there. Buuuuut DST and not DST are very different between Boston (where I live now) and the very edge of Indiana while traveling between my dad's house in Kentland (on central) and the slightly more south part of Indiana sometimes on Eastern

Ummmmm we didn't change clocks in Indiana in the 90s/early 2000s, and I don't remember anything like that? Any studies/data compared to states who were hold outs?

This isn't bad. It's lovely and I feel so goddamn lucky to have two humans SO EXCITED about existence that they want to share all bits and parts with me when we connect after a long day... but dear god, give me at least 15-20 minutes of peace so I can be a functional human again 😂😂😂

I'm in this weird part of parenting where my teens are technically adults. I miss them a lot when they go off to do job things & my house gets so quiet! But they are still SUPER EXCITED TO TALK ABOUT ALL THINGS in a way that hits my neurodivergence overwhelm when I first get home myself. 😬

These types of parents don't seek to love, guide, and teach their children. They seek to control them.

I decided to take some classes, train some models, and really gain an understanding of deep neural networks over the summer so that I could understand what we are up against. I agree with you. The more I know, the more I realize what I don't. The more I've learned, the more concerned I am.

If you needed a sign to vote for Senator Markey today, let this be it. Right now, we must stand with our trans friends in the fight. We must vote for candidates who support them with their full chest... And that is Senator Markey. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/08/dona...

One thing that's been bugging me today: people who claim Dolly Parton wasn't political. False. She was very political. Her art and life's work were about interrogating power + amplifying the powerless. You only think she wasn't political because she did this by example, not bullshit slogans.

Has anyone tried turning the earth off and then on again to see if we can reboot? There's obviously a bug in the system right now. 😭

It’s worse than this. Having been in the room with many of them (long ago, before I knew they were psychopaths), the tycoons who are left running the industry have an active contempt for ordinary people, including their own workers. They actively want to oppress, control and punish them.

It reminds me of my mom's baked spaghetti, which was also a hate crime against Italians.

I've worked with both of them and their teams for some large activism events. In an email address I had only ever used for working on these events, I started getting attack campaign emails from Moulton. I never agreed or signed up. I'm in tech, and not asking for my consent is an automatic no vote.

I agree that the tech backlash has a lot to do with the fact that Silicon Valley has pretty much given up on giving us cool things - and has trained us to assume that tech products that *seem* cool are probably secretly evil. I wrote about this last year:

Apple's engineers have figured out how to design a robot lamp so adorable that everyone I've shown the video to says they'd die for it. By studying how to translate human expression into the movement...

🚨 The archived version of the suppressed Amnesty report into the anti-trans network operating to dismantle human rights in the UK has been "excluded" from the Wayback Machine. JKR is working very hard to scrub its existence from the eyes of the public. Thankfully, I kept screenshots.
