Fantastic.

Yes! You to, hard working individual making less than the median US income! $500 million of bitcoin for a fraction of your annual income! Oh… shit. You don’t make that much? What do you do on a Sunday night at 11pm?

Basic light pollution diagram showing four different streetlight set ups ranging from more light pollution on the left to less light pollution on the right. The most pollution option, labelled "very bad" is a street lamp with a round uncovered bulb on top, making a sphere of light in the air. The next option, labelled "bad" has a tiny cap on top, that limits the upward pollution a bit. The "better" option is mostly uncovered on top, limiting pollution above the streetlight. The final option, labelled "best" has a full shroud overtop, limiting the light to only below the streetlight, where it is needed for pedestrians and vehicles.

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"

guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Let’s give him some credit, everyone. Yes, science should’ve questioned and criticized. It’s the way we update understanding; however, the criticism comes from producing a new hypothesis, testing the null hypothesis, and interrogating the results. Not “I don’t like the outcome so it’s a conspiracy.”

So much power in extending awareness, decency, love and just some fun and joy.

So much power for all of us when we feel seen and feel like we belong.

May we share more of that.

Raskin: If this were to pass, this astounding provision would give eight Republican senators a personal payday of at least a million dollars each, paid for by the U.S. Taxpayers at a time when we are throwing millions of people off of their health care…

… what a self absorbed thing to say about a multi-billion dollar company while people are starving in a first world country due to to evident and unchecked disparities in wealth. As a data person; you should see the gap between with and without is getting larger due to !bad policy decision.

Two takeaways:(1) “Palantir is literally the hardest software to abuse in the world.” - Depends on the context Karp. You’ve amassed multiple government contracts and have a database that houses way too much personal data and global citizens. Sounds like an easy abuse. (2) “I’m the sacrifice”…

And at least she is referencing it. Thank you @ilhanmn.bsky.social for trying to salvage it.

And with that, all the leverage was gone. I’ve said before - when a toddler is throwing a tantrum, you control over and go “it’s been a good fight, but it lives on.”

nothing… #satire

As if the calming tone is supposed to show us how caring he is? Ali, what is your 45% difference there, Joel? Stupidity? Political swing? Or maybe the ability to sense your crap.

I’d like him to teach the master class so we can all learn. Or maybe re-educate.

California alone produces a third of all the food America eats. So this is a lie.

But let’s break down the food produced by the red states:

Guess what percent is harvested by people from Latin America?

Trump on affordability: It’s a con job. Costs are way down.

Ingraham: So you are saying voters are misperceiving how they feel?

I’d love for him to say this at his rallies.

@warnock.senate.gov and @ossoff.senate.gov - Hope you’ve seen the response to SNAP from the fed to the state and can see that even a vote on this will not change their tune.

Just as important to share because it’s the truth. Let’s keep the sky clear of this garbage unless clearly marked.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.

This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

IMO: this is kowtowing. The pressure is and should stay on Republicans.

What are we doing people?

Paramount Has Blacklist for Stars Deemed “Overtly Antisemitic” — World of Reel It sure looks like the likes of Javier Bardem, Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, and Mark Ruffalo won’t be making movies for Paramount in the foreseeable future.

Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.

Does this sound familiar?

Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."

Never going to have another Trump… one can hope

BREAKING:

A federal judge finds the Trump admin "did not comply" with his order to fund SNAP benefits.

Judge John McConnell has verbally ordered the admin to *fully fund* SNAP benefits for the month of November — by tomorrow.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

What news is he watching? I could use a laugh.

Senate report details dozens of cases of medical neglect in federal immigration detention centers A U.S. Senate investigation has uncovered numerous credible reports of medical neglect and poor conditions in immigration detention centers across the country.

A U.S. Senate investigation led by Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) "has uncovered dozens of credible reports of medical neglect and poor conditions in immigration detention centers nationwide — with detainees denied insulin, left without medical attention for days and forced to compete for clean water."

If you didn’t vote yesterday because you feel your vote doesn’t count, look at yesterday’s results and reconsider.
