I am no longer accepting the argument "there are bigger problems than this!" unless you are personally working to stop the ultimate Heat Death of the Universe.

Citing backlash, ISBNdb removed its webpages about training AI, denied ever buying, scanning, or selling a book for AI training, and said the site was a "test of market interest."

Senate Dems just announced a $40 million ground game investment across 10 battleground states. I’m pleasantly surprised. Instead of blowing it on expensive TV ads, they’re investing in field staff, new offices, volunteer programs, and outreach to Latino, Black, and Alaska Native voters. 1/2

Here’s A Comic About Elon Musk & His Infinite Possibilities
Two Panel Comic

Panel 1: Person is pointing to a beautiful sunlit landscape with rivers and forests and saying “Yo Elon, check out this beautiful life of infinite possibilities your immense wealth gives you access to”

Panel 2: Elon Musk is on all fours in a darkened room, naked and covered in a dubious brown substance. He is surrounded by trash and smashing his phone with a hammer. He screams “The people on this fucking website won’t call me the meme maestro”

Happy Little Crater on Mercury - From Goddard Space Flight Center - flic.kr/p/druNSE
It looks like even the craters on Mercury have heard of Bob Ross! The central peaks of this complex crater have formed in such a way that it resembles a smiling face. This image is oriented so north is toward the bottom.

This image was acquired as a high-resolution targeted observation. Targeted observations are images of a small area on Mercury's surface at resolutions much higher than the 200-meter/pixel morphology base map. It is not possible to cover all of Mercury's surface at this high resolution, but typically several areas of high scientific interest are imaged in this mode each week.

The MESSENGER spacecraft is the first ever to orbit the planet Mercury, and the spacecraft's seven scientific instruments and radio science investigation are unraveling the history and evolution of the Solar System's innermost planet. Visit the Why Mercury? section of this website to learn more about the key science questions that the MESSENGER mission is addressing. During the one-year primary mission, MESSENGER acquired 88,746 images and extensive other data sets. MESSENGER is now in a yearlong extended mission, during which plans call for the acquisition of more than 80,000 additional images to support MESSENGER's science goals.

A white tub of peach ice cream with marshmallow swirls. The ice cream is peachy colored, just as it should be, and the marshmallow ribbon is ribboned pretty gorgeously! The lid is held up over the top, I made a label from the old ad -- it says PEACH over an illustration of fatly fruited peach boughs and BLOSSOM below them -- and glued it to the lid.

this is the perfect use of axios’s bullet point house style
A person who spoke with Graham shortly afterward said the senator complained that he was feeling unwell.
When the person urged him to seek medical attention immediately, Graham said he would do so Sunday morning after his scheduled appearance on NBC's
"Meet the Press."
• Graham then joked: "I can't die now. I still need to do the Russia sanctions, get Iran sorted out and do Israeli-Saudi normalization."
• He passed away several hours later.
