Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

If you study history, these sorts of regional conflicts are the kinds of situations that lead to larger conflagrations… like world wars.

We are already up to at least 14 countries in the Middle East and beyond that are involved in this.

The Trump and Netanyahu regimes are responsible for this.

I encountered this Bursaria truncatella after it "inhaled" a Paramecium. I was hoping to see the Paramecium get sealed into a vacuole, but instead it finally managed to escape! My students have nicknamed Bursaria "Micro Roomba." LOL

A little behind on posting, so here are some foggy views of #Pittsburgh from a few weeks ago. The fog was amazing how it just sat on the river, giving the city this eerie yet beautiful vibe. Eventually it engulfed the city, but not before I captured these.

OK, so Noem is out.

But the person behind the policy to begin with (Miller) is still employed in government and is pushing the toxic DHS agenda that Noem carried out.

To be completely honest, I've often wondered about the feasibility of making a clone in metal with modern underpinnings.

A theorem...

Those theorems are based upon assumptions that the right network topology exists somewhere within the matrix, even if it is undefined a priori. You are also assuming that the right network topology can be found, and there is no evidence those topologies match neural ones.

I don’t think it’ll affect the GOP Senate majority. The Oklahoma governor appoints an immediate replacement if Mullin resigns. (Assuming Mullin is confirmed.)

I think Oklohoma has a near instant replacement rule (Unfortunately), and it must be a member of the same party.

Mullin is replacing Noem?

Again, the thing that offends me the most is the gross incompetence of everyone.

Also, this is going to shrink the GOP supermajority to razor thin margins.

Going into the midterms this is good.
