the US if Tylenol actually caused autism

one way to understand the LLM boom is that we have finally, actually, invented Ask Jeeves.

Sun Day weekend, up on the rooftops of Brooklyn, thank you @brooklynsolarworks.bsky.social !

Compare that to what Kennedy posted on Facebook, saying anyone who wanted one could get the vaccine ("after consulting with their doctor"). This seems way more restrictive in the NYT article and it hasn't even gone through ACIP yet.

The Thai cover band you didn't know you needed in your life.

Crank it! 😀 🎸

One of the most remarkable and impactful transformations of all human technology and civilization in history is happening right now!

Motherfucking wind farms…

I don't 100% know what it is yet, but I would write this book.

I think LinkedIn is so crazy making because it’s a ton of people appearing to be very kind but in a way that scans as fake. “What a marvelous post! I had an incredible time reading it. What’s your favorite memory relating to b2b sales?”

Americans Are Concerned About Climate Change—but They Should Be Afraid Americans still don’t comprehend how imminent, dangerous, and far-reaching the threat is—and journalists are partly to blame.

Inside the Long Friendship Between Trump and Epstein For nearly 15 years, the two men socialized together in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Fla., before a falling out that preceded Mr. Epstein’s first arrest.

For nearly 15 years, Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein socialized in New York and Florida before a falling out that preceded Epstein’s first arrest. What seemed to draw them together, according to those who knew them at the time, was a common interest in hitting on — and competing for — young women.

Cool

holy shit lmao

Kristi Noem must resign now.

I was given an ultimatum.

"Many gas-fired power plants in southern China rely on just a few months of operation throughout the year, while the rest of the time they often run at a loss or are idle, with minimal profits. Therefore, it is impossible for them to purchase spot LNG at the moment"

Dying industry.

4.6 Billion Years On, the Sun Is Having a Moment In the past two years, without much notice, solar power has begun to truly transform the world’s energy system.

Globally, roughly a third more power is being generated from the sun this spring than last. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world, @billmckibben.bsky.social writes.

A reminder that is is possible to live a life of kindness & integrity. You don't have to sell out just because everyone else is.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Mr. Fetterman, it's really this simple: you're receiving $174,000 a year for a position to which you were elected after asking people to trust that you'd be an unwavering champion for working class families.

I don't give a fuck that you missed your beach trip. Stop whining and get back to work.

If you have a R senator, seriously call their office tomorrow & say vote against this bill. Say you don’t wan’t three times the budget of NASA going into a sprawling immigrant detention infrastructure. That you don’t want to kick folks you know off Medicaid. That you don’t want solar taxed. reps.fyi

Tell Congress to protect the clean energy tax credits Tell Congress we want this investment in American jobs and affordable clean energy.

Call your Senators today to urge a NO vote on the reconciliation bill.

If a robot can do your job, shouldn’t it also have to pay taxes?

In today's installment of "Who is the worst possible person I could appoint..."

The Senate version of GOP's budget bill dropped in the middle of the night. Astonishingly, it got EVEN WORSE. It raises energy costs, kills $100s of billions of investment in manufacturing, makes grids less reliable, increases pollution & constrains our ability to compete w/China on AI. Loser stuff.

Incredible how Cuomo is absolutely DWARFING everyone else in money and spend and yet it’s still close enough that they’re pulling these stops out.

They’re scared.

Canadian study finds that 33% of commercial trucks are ready to electrify – today electrek.co/2025/06/21/c...

A lot of these are probably the medium duty trucks discussed in our latest SHIFT KEY episode below.

Incredibly amazing post by @jessrem.bsky.social with an important point about American housing—NY/CA build nothing, TX/AZ sprawl, but only a few American cities like Seattle, Atlanta, & DC are actually building lots of new dense housing in their core neighborhoods
