Even at peak output, Buckethead only put out a mere 119 albums in a year (2023)

You'd beat Buckethead!

its a picture of a ballerina teaching future young ballerinas!!!

"Ballerina Aesha Ash wandering around inner city Rochester breaking the stereotypes about women of color and to inspire young kids."

*Many more neighbors were affected, but you won't get tallies on those numbers from the media because they don't get free ambulance rides and a PR team to issue statements on their behalf

"Plenary Authority" is what Hitler got from the Enablement Act. It is literally dictatorship power.

Stephen Miller knows that. He blurted out his fascist dream.

"Plenary authority" = Complete and absolute power

If Miller hadn't pulled a Mitch McConnell, this clip wouldn't be getting so much attention today

kinda crazy how every single “just give people enough money to afford some basic stuff” experiments yield the exact same positive results that everyone benefits from every time, huh

Anyway, back to toiling

Love it. This makes me think of David Lynch

Stalling Adelita Grijalva’s swearing-in also delays vote on release of Epstein files Democrats say House Republicans are delaying the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva – elected by landslide last week to replace her late father in Congress – to stall release of the Epstein files. The Tu...

“The Tucson Democrat stood on the House floor during a pro forma session that lasted less than three minutes, enough time for an opening prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance. Fellow Democrats chanted ‘Swear her in!’

But the Republican presiding over the House gaveled the session to an abrupt end.”

Screencap of BBC article reading "Most solar generation (58%) is now in lower-income countries, many of which have seen explosive growth in recent years. That's thanks to spectacular reductions in cost. Solar has seen prices fall a staggering 99.9% since 1975 and is now so cheap that large markets for solar can emerge in a country in the space of a single year, especially where grid electricity is expensive and unreliable, says Ember. Pakistan, for example, imported solar panels capable of generating 17 gigawatts (GW) of solar power in 2024, double the previous year and the equivalent of roughly a third of the country's current electricity generation capacity."

Simply can't be overstated how powerfully transformative the rise of cheap, ubiquitous solar power has been

Good news!

Maps show how expected increases in monthly premiums vary by age and geography.

If ACA healthcare subsidies are not extended, a 60-year-old earning $65k in Key West, Fla. could see premiums go from $460 a month with the subsidies to $2,400 a month without.

Nemo and the Princess have gone for a ride on a large elephant. They switch to a car and ride a giant loop and then off a ramp into the sky, while the moon looks on smiling. Before they land, Nemo wakes up in his bed.

This would be funny if not incredibly dangerous behaviour. It’s incumbent upon this government to be transparent about this government employee, the consequences for repeatedly breaking the law. If it were anyone else the premier would be using them as an example in one of his PR stunts

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:
