When Henry arrived at the Junction for the Electric Line, he met an unfamiliar engine at the other platform. “Be careful!” squeaked the newcomer. “Your smoke will surely interfere with my overhead wires!” “I’m always careful!” grunted Henry. “You needn’t worry.”

I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking. I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process
Office Rep: Hello! this is the office for congressman Billy Bob. How May I help you?

Me: Hey my name is (Gov. name) from (residing city). I had some concerns.

Office Rep: Sure thing I can pass on a message!

Me: Are you familiar with this ongoing push for these online safety laws? 

Office Rep: Hmm...Is there a particular bill or law that it involves?

Me: A few actually! 

Office Rep: Go ahead!Me: the KIDS Act, Kids online safety act (KOSA), the Screen Act, Sammy's Law, and the App Store Accountability Act

Office Rep: Got it!

Me: I strongly oppose these laws and I urge Billy Bob to vote no when these bills are up for vote. They do nothing to actually protect children and are just a cover to suppress free speech. 

Also There's been a bipartisan push to end section 230. I think Section 230 should be protected since it's important for online free speech. I'm not a fan of this speed running of a surveillance state happening
right now. Have you noticed that?

Office Rep: (Chuckles) Okay, I have it all written down and I'll make sure Billy Bob gets the message. Thank you for calling!

Me: Thank you for listening.

It has been this way since time immemorial. Spending a billion a day on a ‘not’ war. Meanwhile, all you suckers can starve, die because you can’t afford healthcare or find new treatments for disease. And who the fuck needs education and arts? We aren’t mad enough!!
Several tables are set with individuals behind them waiting to be served. The tables have signs — Education, Sciences, Arts, Healthcare… no one is serving them. All of the servers are delivering piles of money to the table where WAR is sitting.

80 autistic schoolkids recreated the massive Army computer, which debuted in 1946 They talked w/ ENIAC historian Brian Stuart and worked w/ Dag Spicer of the Computer History Museum. They had "astounding access to original patent drawings, Army documentation, and detailed photographs," Burick says

The first computers ever built were so large they took up entire rooms. One of those massive machines, the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC), debuted in 1946 as a tool for the US Army. ENIAC covered 1,800 square feet and weighed over 30 tons. It was in continuous operation until 1955, when it was dismantled.

Eight decades later, a group of 80 autistic students, mostly aged 12 to 16, at PS Academy Arizona in Gilbert, has recreated the ENIAC. The project involved building 22,000 custom parts and assembling them with 1,600 hot glue gun sticks. All told, it took five and a half months, from the first day of school in August 2025 to earlier this month, when the students hosted a ceremony to reveal their creation to friends and family.

Their ENIAC replica is now on display at the school, and discussions are ongoing with several places that would like to permanently display it, including the Computer History Museum.Students working on the ENIAC replica

Though it does not function as a computer, the ENIAC replica offers visitors the chance to feel the "full scale of this enormous machine, fully lit with many hundreds of LEDs, and a soundtrack that replicates the deep hum of the transformers and the relays clicking," says Tom Burick, the technology teacher who led the project.

Burick is also neurodivergent—he has dyscalculia, which affects how his brain processes numbers—a personal detail he debated sharing as part of this story. "I don't want to take away the focus from the students and their accomplishment," he says. "But I feel it's important to mention as a message to them, maybe to the families, and people in general, that this is what adult neurodivergence looks like. There can be tremendous success and quality of life and career. It's time to start changing the narrative."
