"To make the proof" shows how absurd this all is from a scientific standpoint.

There are now one or two of Elon Musk's Starlink satellites falling back to Earth every single day.

Men claim women talk too much, but boy if you get that man on a panel, he will over talk every woman present in the room.

Is Trump about to squash America’s carbon-removal moonshot? Nascent direct air capture projects were hit with funding cuts last week. A new list has caused confusion over the fate of DAC hubs in Louisiana and Texas.

Carbon dioxide removal research and development should be government-funded and government-led.

Stop blaming windmills — it’s AI. No, literally: AI is why our power bills are up.

A 14-year-old has to face a masked ICE agent threatening them with deportation — that’s the reality under this administration.

This is amazing.

People think that when you become disabled, support magically appears

That once it’s “official” you will have your basic needs met

The truth is people fight for years to get the bare minimum in benefits

Caregivers are nearly impossible to find

If you’re not rich or very lucky… you’re on your own

One of my favorite things is to make a fancy dinner for no reason other than we are alive and we get to have pleasurable experiences.

Tonight, I made a spectacular roast leg of lamb, squash + peas, and a tomato salad (the last from the garden).

Joy, pleasure: these are resistance, too.

People are being robbed. The answer to that is not shame or anger.

The answer is empathy and compassion.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Stephen Miller froze after mentioning “plenary authority.”

… but what is plenary authority?

Michigan Avenue right now.

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

Murray: I talked to a family that’s paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. It’s going to jump to over $1,800 per month.

Many people will turn away and not pay for it—obviously, they’ll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.

Today marks yet another day that Speaker Mike Johnson has denied Adelita Grijalva her right to govern.

She won her special election on Sept 23rd but has yet to be sworn in.

Why? Because she will become the 218th vote needed to discharge the release of the Epstein files.

Say her name.

Trump: we don’t need to pay furloughed federal workers

Federal workers: we don’t have to work for no pay

A new White House memo says that furloughed federal workers aren't entitled to back pay.

This is clearly against the law, which guarantees furloughed federal employees back pay for the duration of a government shutdown.
