Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Welcome to the Era of "Kavanaugh Raids" ICE crosses another big, important line.

America enters a new, dark chapter: "Kavanaugh Raids" on entire buildings and neighborhoods, a chapter surely to be remembered as infamously as we now view the "Palmer Raids" of the first Red Scare. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/welcome-to...

Phone screenshot of the whitehouse website executive orders page edited to look like there is an executive order titled “Why do they call it oven when you of in the cold food of out hot eat the food?”

This is literally what the actual "siege" of the auxiliary ICE building looks like

Insightful

Hell yeah and If I may translate:

Go fuck your mother

A nice moment from an enjoyable thread ripping to shreds a recent text from the “abundance” crowd

The physical and emotional isolation that cars breed are toxic on their own, but I also think that having individual command over such powerful machinery warps the human spirit in a way.

The spectrum goes multidimensional in search of autism subtypes Grouping people with autism based on shared features, genetics and co-occurring conditions may improve clinical trial outcomes, researchers say.

How Scientists Started to Decode Birdsong Language is said to make us human. What if birds talk, too?

Scientists have been trying to understand the vocalizations of birds—and discovering that the animals have intellectual abilities far greater than most people had imagined.

I hate to give wired credit for anything whatsoever. You may be right but I also think the label (or something like it) would have emerged without them

AI rebrands humanistic skills like writing, drawing, creativity, which have all been *thoroughly feminized,* as hard and macho, letting bros who fear nothing more than the whiff of femininity and feminization access creativity without the stench of girliness

I need a way to refer to the place I go to rent a laser cutter. These days that’s called a makerspace.

Make: Community - Maker Movement Make: has been elevating makers, nurturing a global cultural movement, and celebrating creativity, innovation and curiosity since 2005.

Yeah they certainly want to take credit for things. Im sure it benefited them while it lasted. make.co/maker-moveme...

Wired was capitalizing on a term that existed previously.

Maker spaces went out of business all over the place, but a few still exist, and their denizens absolutely identify with the term. And many more crafters are doing more or less the same thing without the label. I don’t place a lot of value in identity generally though. You are what you do, imho.

It’s pretty low quality crap, even by Silicon Valley standards. I’m frankly surprised the money men thought we would be fooled. They really don’t think very highly of us apparently.

Especially since stack overflow still exists

I guess I just end up feeling like surface level answers aren’t worth the cost of the environment, our privacy, and our democracy.

No. Makers gonna make. Hasn’t died out in the slightest.

Problem is, is the temporary enervation just what it feels like to learn? To get the new facts under your skin? I worry that it feels easier because it is simply absorbed less. It’s the quicker, more surface level answer, rather than the deep understanding. But maybe that’s the goal at times?

Same.

Who knew ranked choice voting would be so heartwarming?

As usual, I learned a lot from this piece. Very important reading. Yes, it's lengthy, but it will reward your time.

Look at this pusillanimous bullshit. I voted for Katie Porter.

Posting for @acatwithnews.bsky.social, who is out in Paramount, CA, where federal agents reportedly are conducting ICE raids, and have completely gassed out the neighborhood

ICE raids hit across Los Angeles today—and locals are rising up. This is what resistance looks like. ✊🏾

This was about an hour ago…

Heavily-armed DHS paramilitary forces in military vehicles fired dozens of stun grenades at a crowd of onlookers today in Los Angeles.
