When the bad man finally drops dead we can all move on. We'll still be sharing a country with countless people who gleefully aided and abetted his crimes but they probably won't do it again

Corporations and billionaires don’t want you to know what political messages they are funding. That’s why they make the info so difficult to find. PaidForBy.info changes the game. It’s 100% free to use. Please check it out and spread the word!

If you ever wondered why visible light is those particular wavelengths, it's because life evolved to see in the narrow range where water is transparent

I don't wanna COUCH my words here: I know JD Vance, his eyeliner, and absent Ashley Moody are used to running away from people when things get tough because they care more about themselves and their billionaire buddies than the people they represent. But this is my home. /1

Btw, even among pro AI friends, this concern is ALL OVER THE PLACE. Devs wondering how we get senior devs if the ecosystem for junior devs goes away. Doctors talking about not needing interns. Lawyers not needing paralegals. There's an ecological aspect to this and we need a plan.

Dear Democrats, You will never be able to triangulate your way through racism/sexism/transphobia, because pushing a lighter, politer form of bigotry is always a lose-lose proposition. The bigots want the uncut stuff, while normal people aren't drawn to cowards who sell out. Stand your ground.

Get in, folks: a new Russian disinfo campaign is targeting the midterms, specifically Democrats, in what seems to be the first attempt by the Kremlin-backed op to meddle in this year’s U.S. elections. They're faking celebrity videos attacking Dems and are...very stupid. www.ms.now/news/russia-...

"In the morning, I walked out barefoot Among thousands of flowers Heavy with dew like the eyes of tears, And each had a name--" Today's lunch read: "The Names," a poem by Billy Collins dedicated to the victims of September 11 & their survivors allpoetry.com/poem/1432718... #poetry #booksky 🗃️📜📚
Typescript pages annotated by Billy Collins of his poem “The Names,” which commemorates victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks. Collins read the poem before a special joint session of Congress on September 6, 2002.

(the title of the poem is)
The Names 
(and it is dedicated to the victims of September 11th and their survivors)

Yesterday, I lay awake in the palm of the night.
A soft rain stole in, unhelped by any breeze,
And when I saw the silver glaze on the windows,
I started with A, with Ackerman, as it happened,
Then Baxter and Calabro,
Davis and Eberling, names falling into place
As droplets fell through the dark.

We made a comic about a jaguar.
1 Person at zoo, looking at jaguar: I read that jaguars get high on psychedelic mushrooms out in nature.
2 Jaguar: You looking for shrooms?
3 Jaguar: I also got coke, xannies, and the dankest weed money can buy.
4 Jaguar: Guards coming, be cool.

Similarly, if a random citizen at your daughter's soccer game wanted to check the genitals of the kids playing, you would call the fucking cops, and rightly so. Stop debating these people and call them out for what they are -- creepy perverts, freaky busybodies and utter hypocrites.

NASDAQ basically force-loaded about $25 billion of SpaceX stock into passive investor portfolios (aka, people's pension and retirement funds) by jamming SpaceX into its index right at IPO time rather than waiting the standard 30-60 days. Billions of dollars of unrealized losses already.

In the concept art this arch was supposed to be a perfect miniature of Trump's planned 250 ft (76m) tall arch. The rushed and limited planning time led to this Home Depot scrap plywood wrapped in vinyl debacle.
Contrasting photos of the Freedom 250 concept art the Trump's state fair, with a fully detailed miniature triumphal arch, and and actual photo of the event with a crude plywood wrapped in vinyl sheeting arch.

If they'd rather we move on from the pool and discuss some of the president's more significant failures, we can do that. What would they like? The tanking economy? The never-ending war of choice? Oh, I know! The president's pedophile friend and the massive coverup of his sex trafficking ring?
