Wasn't the Bagram airfield built by the Soviet Union in the 1950s? It's going to be difficult to return it to the country that built it.

Trump is a moron

He still thinks asylum seekers are people from asylums, doesn’t he?

Has he given up on the Nobel peace prize?

China tests ‘world’s largest’ offshore wind turbine With a hub height of 185 meters, the turbine will be equivalent to a 63-story skyscraper.

Welp, updated my "biggest wind turbine in the world" slide again. Last time I taught thermo, it was a 19 MW turbine with 128 m blades. This year, it's 26 MW with 150 m blades. Always offshore, always in China.

Context: A Boeing 747 is 71 m long. 150 m is about the height of a 50-story skyscraper.

Everyone else fucking about with coal and gas powered AI vainty projects while China is running away with this stuff.

Bluesky moderation has proven that they cannot identify actual sexual content. I do not trust them to ban only noncon sex And even then noncon deserves to exist with flags. Also the rules about self harm are ridiculous They do not owe anyone to be educational about their experience

Laura wrote to me about her dad, Dave! Every day he shares Steve’s adventures with her. On his birthday(just after a hip replacement!) Laura surprised him with his own “Steve” who now sits by Dave’s side while they read Otter News together. 🦦💙Stories like this remind me why I love making these posts

Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

This is Daegi and Jjigi. Together they share one brain cell, and Jjigi is currently using it to look out the window. 12/10 for both #SeniorPupSaturday (IG: j___d_love)

I am Autistic and have pretty severe social anxiety, if I don't know you and we have never spoken before, chances are I'm probably not going to be okay with you asking in a first conversation to game with me while I'm live especially when I know nothing of your playstyle or even anything about you.😅

I recently learned that my local Canadian library is connected to Hoopla! I had thought Hoopla was an American thing. The number of ebooks I can borrow without ever having to leave my house has just multiplied tenfold. It's great. (And audiobooks, comics, movies, shows...For free! In a legal way!)

What are you doing on here? Go get a book. Go read your book. Throw book across the room. Sob and hug book.

Go book!

Russia is showing the full extent of its contempt for diplomacy and international law.

So we're increasing the pressure.
