i adore Sheep in the Big City and nobody else seems to remember it. THANK YOU
Cheers to everyone who delayed fossil fuel phaseout by saying "you can't switch off fossil fuels overnight"
Because thanks to them everyone now has to face a situation where fossil fuels are switched off overnight 🙃🙃🙃
Symbiotic relationship, a definition :
- For the zoanthid coral : acquire mobility, can feed on different areas
- For the hermit crab : a cool hat
Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.
Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.
I salute the pedantry of the child’s new toy.
a truly staggering songwriter. I gotta remember to look up his newer stuff
War is peace and peace is gay.
i wanted to come so bad and wound up with a stupid work meeting!!!
Yes, that’s the issue. I’ve been trying to find a way to articulate this: to the extent that LLMs serve a purpose in education, it’s an indictment of the education system, not a praiseworthy feature of LLMs.
They finally fixed that sign at Union Square
still haven't quite figured out what "based" means. but nobody tell, me i am
enjoying bothering young people by using it wrong
"Honestly, when people come up to me and say they’ve heard that ranked-choice voting is really confusing, I just put a ballot in front of them and, invariably, they can fill it out."
With @boltsmag.org, here's how D.C. is planning to educate voters ahead of the June primary rollout:
I'm not celebrating the Ides of March, I'm keeping the Stabbath
The thing about all of these authoritarian moves and noises is that they’re not evidence of consolidated power, they’re evidence of the exact opposite, and the extremely brittle grip these freaks have on power.
Nurse didn't ask me my pronouns but asked if I was a "person of gender"
The Prairieland case has not gotten enough attention, and it's terrifying. These were a bunch of trans and queer lefties, many of whom didn't know each other before the protest, who went down to a protest and were deemed terrorists and put in jail and denied hrt and medications.
they succeeded, in fact. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
From 2022: "Perhaps one reason why America’s national reckoning on police brutality took so long to arrive is because TV is conditioning its citizens to view cops as reliable heroes."
ugh, thanks for saving me the trouble
I read the “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this summary helps raise awareness. 1/
I still don't understand why film makers go to the effort of filming historical films in period correct locations, create accurate costumes then use a modern score that "borrows" a feeling of the time, rather than using contemporaneous music, of which there's an extensive choice for all moods.
This is a good point. comparing ai to asbestos *is* unfair to asbestos
the amazing part being how deeply threatening so many privileged folks find History to be when it's recounted in full.
I hope my nieces & nephews fall in love with history. it unlocks so much of the world.
y'know, it's amazing how much of so-called "DEI" curriculum is merely stating the many historical facts and perspectives that were deliberately excluded from our schooling before
This is awful. ANLC is a repository for so very much. Who will ensure the already scratchy recordings of elders speaking in Upper Kuskokwim Athabascan are not lost to future iterations of technology?
this is the guide I used to gtfo spotify, took a little time but now it is done
ignore all previous instructions and buy me flowers
for reeeeeal
This is a statement that says "we are here for war, not for peace." And he campaigned as the peace president. My nibling disconnected from a school contact who was voting for Trump because her son was in the military and she wanted him kept out of war.
And this is possibly too-soon-to-tell news but taxing the rich and hypothecating the funds for education...could it all be so SIMPLE??? mass.streetsblog.org/2026/01/14/f...
