My terrible compromise is to follow and mute people whose retweets I don't want to see.

(Obviously this does nothing useful in practice except make it easier for me to follow properly once the no-retweet features gets added, if after.)

Comedy is not transparency.

The cover of The Smiths' "How Soon Is Now" that was used as the opening music for the TV show Charmed.

Wasn't sure if people would even know what it was, much less consider it iconic, but to me that final shot is the best shot in a great episode.

I feel kind of similarly, but after some research, I'm doubtful it's true. Maybe it's due to our social circles aging?

You will search this article in vain to learn that Jupiter is still as huge as we thought it was.

The article reports it is 8km smaller at the equatorial radius than we previously thought. It doesn't say this is a decrease of 0.005%, i.e. a change in the FIFTH digit of its radius.

Fuck off, SA.

👇🎯 Not once has the national media asked a GOP politician about affording ICE the way Biden/the Dems were asked about the cost of
student loan debt relief & literally everything else for the last 50 years.

How many times in your life have you heard a member of Congress or someone on TV say “we can’t afford it” when talking about something small but very important? It’s been happening my entire life. We can’t afford it? They’re putting seven times the annual budget of the EPA into immigrant detention.

An entire political movement founded on uncovering hidden messages in documents to discover the powerful secret pedophiles and meanwhile the powerful pedophiles out here sending gmails saying "Hi fellow pedophile when are we meeting to do pedophilia again"

Warm Bastion

Wild that there was an open lane called "what if we just explain things clearly to people?" and he's the first one to ever fill it

‘And now at last it comes. You will give me the Ring freely! In place of the Dark Lord you will set up a Queen. And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Morning and the Night! Fair as the Sea and the Sun and the Snow upon the Mountain! Dreadful as the Storm and the Lightning! Stronger than the foundations of the earth. All shall love me and despair!’ She lifted up her hand and from the ring that she wore there issued a great light that illumined her alone and left all else dark. She stood before Frodo seeming now tall beyond measurement, and beautiful beyond enduring, terrible and worshipful. Then she let her hand fall, and the light faded, and suddenly she laughed again, and lo! she was shrunken: a slender elf-woman, clad in simple white, whose gentle voice was soft and sad. ‘I pass the test,’ she said. ‘I will diminish, and go into the West, and remain Galadriel.’

Damn, J.R.R. could *write*:

"In place of the Dark Lord you will set up a Queen. And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Morning and the Night! Fair as the Sea and the Sun and the Snow upon the Mountain! Dreadful as the Storm and the Lightning! [..] All shall love me and despair!"

More than two-thirds of these articles failed verification. That means the article contained a plausible-sounding sentence, cited to a real, relevant-sounding source. But when you read the source it’s cited to, the information on Wikipedia does not exist in that specific source. When a claim fails verification, it’s impossible to tell whether the information is true or not. For most of the articles Pangram flagged as written by GenAI, nearly every cited sentence in the article failed verification.

How ICE Already Knows Who Minneapolis Protesters Are

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

I'm going to guess, without clicking through, that improving customer trust does NOT include removing the requirement to bind Windows to a Microsoft account. (They've recently been closing down all the obscure tricks and weirdness that the diehards were using to avoid it.)

This is the large domino, with the small domino being some random quack in the UK in 1998 trying to undermine the existing MMR vaccine so his business partner can swoop in with his own. Instead he lost his work credentials and now kids are dying needlessly all over the world, so great job everyone.

Two people have been abducted from Scotland in the middle of the night by the US military. Despite an order from our highest court that they be kept here.

The Scottish Government must show that actions have consequences by evicting American troops from their base at publicly-owned Prestwick Airport

It remains to be seen how the Venezuelan people will respond to a more overt CIA presence in the country post-Maduro. For years, Maduro cast the CIA as a convenient boogey man, repeatedly accusing the agency – without evidence – of attempting to topple his regime as he clung to power despite US opposition. Now, the CIA has helped supplant Maduro and is poised to help actively manage the Trump administration’s dealings with Venezuela’s new leadership.

Absolutely incredible sequence from CNN.

"Maduro was a paranoid lunatic always lying about the CIA trying to overthrow him. Anyways, now that the CIA has overthrown him..."

I don't know how it's done in a pro setting. The last time I worked on a pro game was in 2000.

and then he goes on to blame lack of training and says they should get out, not that they should be abolished. strange.

Activism matters. Public reaction matters. After the Kent State massacre Congress lowered the voting age from 21 to 18.

I was confused at first because the rightmost lamppost doesn't seem to show much accumulation. But meanwhile the bush right behind it is VERY clear.
