It would seem Elon Musk desperately wants to be a real-life James Bond or maybe Tony Stark, but he can't manage anything more sophisticated than Spy Kids.

A bad press release makes a good excuse to look at how developmental biology works.

FUN FACT! A ton (if not most!) Indigenous languages don't have a word for "wilderness" because that's such a colonial concept There's only words for "home" and "the land (a living being)". Land is always doing what it's meant to, unless something like us is preventing it

"trans rights just aren't that popular" Neither was the civil rights movement "Oh but that's different" Do you think that trans people aren't just a type of person that exists? "But it's different tho" In some ways, but civil rights leaders broadly saw LGBTQ rights as the next step, so...

Its weird to know that if we got rid of needles bureaucracy & administrative bloat accross the board, the average person would only have to work like 10-20 hours a week & most things would cost like 1/10 of what they do now

thank you The New York Post for what may be the funniest image of all time
a picture from the NY Post titled "	today’s leftists are possessed by the spirit of France’s 18th-century guillotine-loving revolutionaries" (way too long) that shows Mamdani (the specter haunting Europe) smiling in the sky as a bunch of French people goof around

"Besides being deeply cynical, Chomsky’s supposed pragmatism has not stood the test of time...We may have manufactured consent once upon a time, but America has long since transitioned to a post-manufacturing economy." Very harsh but worthwhile read. strangematters.coop/noam-chomsky...

this bit seems especially important
Screenshot of text reading: " Today, the world consists not of two or three but several axes of power with overlapping and contradictory alliances and different factions within countries’ ruling classes openly backing different geopolitical networks. Meanwhile, any notion of establishment consensus has been fragmented into fractal shards of communication that traverse borders, with entire “alternative media” ecosystems funded by the world’s most powerful financial interests and heeded by its most powerful politicians pumping out conspiracy theories about “elites” and “mainstream media” – often framed in heavily vulgarized yet strikingly familiar echoes of Chomsky’s magnum opus. Ironically, all of this comes at a time when the Chomsky model of how American power functions – that we should always be wary of criticizing official enemies lest the CIA and State Department (who ostensibly accord great importance to the utterances of leftist academics and social critics) pluck our words from the ether and use them to “manufacture consent” for a military intervention – has proven questionable at best. In reality, very little consent was manufactured for either the regime change in Venezuela or the assault on Iran, both of which have enjoyed minimal public support and were given at most a series of half-hearted and mutually contradicting justifications before being openly acknowledged as naked resource grabs. We may have manufactured consent once upon a time, but America has long since transitioned to a post-manufacturing economy."

Watched The Monolith Monsters (1957) yesterday and it blew me away. Alien invasion / giant monster movie where the "monsters" are inanimate rocks from a meteor. Everytime they get wet, they grow into towering monoliths, fall over and shatter, and then the cycle repeats, multiplying. Ingenious.
The monolith monsters threatening to fall over and crush a farm.The earth from space, a meteor about to hit itA wide shot of a threatened desert town, the monoliths looming in the distance.A young girl stands in the shadows of her ruined home.

En España las bajas laborales se han disparado desde 2020 y se sitúan por encima de los países vecinos. Pero en vez de culpar a los trabajadores por vagos como hace la derecha, hay que preguntarse por las causas para poder así abordarlas. ¡Y ojo que algunas son positivas! 🧵

Sometimes I feel like a 70-year-old in a 30-year-old’s body. I hate social media, have zero interest in short-form content, and never know the creators people are mad about. Making YouTube videos is the only “young” thing I do—and I’d rather be making 1970s-style scifi films.
