During a power outage from the Russian attacks, an elderly lady with a flashlight selects seeds from a catalog to order them via post and plant in the spring.

"That's all you need to know about faith in the future," the writing on the video says.

Our country's military service members are waiting in food lines to feed their families. Trump's response? "I don't want to hear about the affordability."

A learner asked me to check the Welsh of a document they'd written and I was delighted to see misspellings.

Why? Because misspellings happen when you're writing! They do not happen when you're copying & pasting from an online dictionary or Google Translate. The *quality* of errors is so important.

Seeing GenZ-ers gleefully embrace fascism Like Dick Cheney never existed has been insane, it's been like "You never saw your peers get blown to bits in a pointless and incompetently led war for oil only to have the Westboro Baptist Church show up at their funeral, and it shows."

My premise, starting w Duffy being named to this job and confirmed by every utterance or action since then, is that he knows nothing about aviation.

Would be like appointing me to judge the world lumberjack championships. (At which Duffy was the speed-climbing winner, in 1994.)

Dear DNC, here's a thought-consider every state that you think is red more like various shades of purple, and if you put some money there to support candidates you will end up with more blue...just a thought...

Trump Is Very Confused About Nuclear Weapons The president says he wants to resume nuclear testing but doesn’t seem to know why.

I read it all. @radiofreetom.bsky.social put scariest part at the top: "In the space of one short announcement, he managed to get a lot wrong, which is worrisome, because he’s the only person in America who has the authority to order the use of nuclear arms." 🎁

JD Vance’s family was on food assistance when he was growing up, but he doesn’t think your family deserves that safety net.

If you're going to volunteer at a food bank because of the current times, please consider wearing a mask when helping distributing food. Even if they're not wearing a mask themselves, poor people have enough to deal with right now, getting an infectious disease just adds to the burden.

Largest study of its kind shows AI assistants misrepresent news content 45% of the time – regardless of language or territory An intensive international study was coordinated by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and led by the BBC

Yet again, we can't afford to let LLMs become a source of epistemic grounding for society.

Nebraska Ranchers are being crushed by Trump’s over-involved, big government policies. They just want to be left alone.

White House begins demolishing East Wing facade to build Trump’s ballroom The president had claimed construction of the $250 million ballroom wouldn’tΒ β€˜interfere’ with the existing White House structure.

This is insane.

β€œIt won’t interfere with the current building. It’ll be near it but not touching it β€” and pays total respect to the existing building, which I’m the biggest fan of," Trump said in July. β€œIt’s my favorite. It’s my favorite place. I love it.”

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

A conspiracy theorist dies and goes to heaven.

β€œAt last! Who shot JFK?”

God says, β€œOswald, acting alone.”

Conspiracy theorist says, β€œShit. This goes even higher than I thought…”

Oh dear, I just heard someone on the radio say they're going to a No Kings event tomorrow and bringing their dog.

Please, don't bring your dog. Please. I don't care how good your dog is, please don't bring it just in case something goes sideways.
