TBF that title is exactly what she looks like.

My stepfather wrote an economics textbook with Matt Stone’s father.

I once sat behind him in a session about Harlan Ellison at a con.

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

If you can provide $3k checks for the entire middle class of America by taxing 900 people a little more, not only should you do it, but you should take it as a signal that your monetary system is broken

Blumenthal: “Wouldn’t you agree that no U.S. citizen, simply working lawfully, should be arrested?”

Noem: “In law enforcement operations across the country there are times when U.S. citizens may be arrested or detained until their identity is confirmed and that they haven’t committed a crime.”

This is my favorite tweet. Of all time.

Trading on Violence Insider trading on prediction markets is turning into a dog-bites-man type of story.

On Polymarket, transactions are visible but identities are not. This invites not only insider trading but also, as recent events suggest, potential betting directly on & profiting from geopolitical violence, as CASBS fellow @rajivsethi.bsky.social explains

Merlin also says it caught a Hammond’s Flycatcher, but that would be rare. However, it seems a couple have been sighted within ~100 miles recently. So, I will keep an ear out.

“…dedicated to honoring the strongest and bravest voices in war. When power is projected abroad, it is only right that strength exists at home. If you’re looking for proven genes, inherited courage, and unquestionable resolve, look no further than the Trump family. Leadership starts somewhere.” 😆

NSF Intent to Restructure Critical Weather Infrastructure

The US NSF has put out a "dear colleagues" letter that is essentially a yard sale list for @ncar-ucar.bsky.social

It asks questions such as, who'd like to take over some of NCAR's programs? Is anyone interested in commercial use of the Mesa Lab?

If you have thoughts, send them to NSF_NCAR@nsf.gov

Moron says Harris would have gotten us into war with Iran and it would have been a nightmare

Same moron is really excited about the prospect of Trump attacking Iran

Just a reminder that most of the MAGA influencers don’t actually have any principles or positions on anything.

Whatever gets them clicks and engagement. It’s all a grift.

Public Health Workers Are Quitting Over Guantánamo Assignments While torture hasn’t been reported from the infamous facility, ICE shift reports note detainees are resorting to hunger strikes and self-harm.

ICE shift reports from Guantánamo note hunger strikes, self-harm and suicide watch among detainees. Many didn't know they were in Cuba until PHS nurses told them.

Elon Musk @elonmusk • 6h For a country to survive, there has to be a common culture. X Nobody dies to defend a "multicultural economic zone"! American culture, with its English-Scotts-Irish origin, is great and worth fighting for. Some may not realize it, but that's why people come here.

Navajo Code Talkers

Billionaire racist Elon Musk, erasing the fact that millions of “multicultural Americans” have died defending multicultural America, often while white supremacists like Elon Musk fought tooth and nail to deny them the basic civil rights accorded to white Americans.

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.
