We solved acid rain so successfully that it has become a talking point used to oppose solving environmental issues, it's maddening

Holy shit. The United States was not invited to the NATO summit on Ukraine in Paris on March 11.

There’s no other meaning:

The United States was just benched for colluding with the enemy.

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

Donald Trump says he wants to rid our country of rapists and criminals.

Is he going to resign?

Tweet from Jeff Stein: NEWS - How Elon Musk's vision for DOGE prevailed, culminating in Ramaswamy exit: - Musk & Ramaswamy have had diverging ideas of how DOGE would work for months; - Musk wanted DOGE inside the WH, where it could obtain sensitive government information across agencies. Ramaswamy had wanted a nongovernmental body, as originally pitched; - Musk wanted "technology-first perspective," w/ data-mining & AI to achieve DOGE goals; - Musk prevailed. Trump EO placed DOGE inside WH; internal checks on Musk's access to intel unclear; - Some Trump allies are concerned about extent of privileged government information Musk will have access to

Boy I don't like the phrase "internal checks on Musk's access to intel unclear." www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

In the meantime, our chickens are giving us an egg surplus.

Whenever I see someone advocate Borda as the "best" voting system, it's a clear tell that they don't know a lot about voting systems. Borda is so easily gamed via Burial that it would be obvious after one or two real world elections.

According to my 2yo, "that" is not a pronoun. It is, specifically, French toast. As in, "I want THAT!"

Kash-ing in: The money-making schemes of Trump's pick for FBI Director The current FBI Director, Christopher Wray, was appointed by Donald Trump during his first term.

Let's review

This is the way.

Sen. Murphy: I’m Preparing for Dystopia In an interview with The Bulwark, the Connecticut Democrat outlines how bad it could get and what his party must now do.

"'I’m getting prepared for the worst' Senator Chris Murphy said in an interview with The Bulwark. 'Which is, you know, arrest warrants for members of Congress, shutdowns of not-for-profit organizations that are trying to cross Donald Trump.'" New from Sam Stein:

If Trump's first administration was stocked with Bond Villains, it seems like the second one is going with more of a Legion of Doom vibe.

A brief thread...

The idea that Bluesky is insular and X is a place for diverse views is a fallacy.

X is based on an algorithm rigged to push the views of Musk and others on the far right.

Bluesky is open. You can make it whatever you want it to be.

My wife persuaded me to move over so all our data won't be mined for AI training.

The big story tonight is Russia’s overt attack on America’s election - they didn’t even try to hide it - yet it’s being hugely underreported.

This is a huge deal - a superpower intervention to help Trump win.

I am so surprised at how people are freaking out about a result announcement pattern that is exactly the same as it usually is. Big cities take longer. The west coast is still voting. Turn off cable news.

I've had it with non-stop conflict. Too many people are being awful to others. This is all the fighting I can handle right now.
