There was a time, not so long ago, when Republican George W. Bush appointed a Muslim doctor and outstanding scientist Elias Zerhouni, born and raised in Algeria, as Director of the National Institutes of Health (nominated 6 months after 9/11).

i haven't bothered to read the article, but it is almost certainly bullshit, and I recommend you block this guy sure, anyone can filter out microplastics the question is, can you do it cost effectively

He makes the Koch brothers seem not evil

Today's NY Times this is probably a story that magnifies what a tiny tiny group of people are thinking but having said that: Platner stans have a lot to answer for

just me I thought hte dems missed an easy layup when they failed to talk rising cost of insurance in 2024 or maybe they did, but since I live in a very blue state , MA, I didn't hear wht people in battleground states heard

kyle, who has 300,000+ followers, give us a news story that doesn't in clude a link to the report that is the basis for the story just utter failure a reply person had to do that basic service democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Today I learned something astonishing from Hyde Most pollsters don't poll in Spanish in Florida surreal as J K Galbraith once said, experts [ pollsters ] can always be wrong

Trusting headlines from the wall str journal is a fool's errand, but if this is true, LMAO that unions in CA are opposed to billionaires tax and no one on bluesky or mastodon ever ever mentions that

Everyone should read these threads I did about industry lobbyists and the EPA and understand them. Take the time to see the unambiguous evidence of what's happening now at this moment inside the EPA. Please retweet them. Please read them. Each one of the threads. It's happening in slow motion.

Poisoning the USA inside out by the current EPA.

I am so old, I remember when "made in Japan" mean't cheap and tinny (tinny as in cheap metal toys)

I do not understand Gregk "actually try to defeat them" what on earth does it mean ? it sounds like word salad

the lack of attn given to this imp story is why no one should take politics on bluesky seriously, it is mostly just cosplay left wing performance outrage

wall str journal: Meta is seeking to raise $95 billion to finance work on AI Regardless of your views on AI, if Meta can raise such a titanic sum of money in Oct '26, I think that the AI bubble has not burst but I don't know anything about AI or corporate finance, I'm just some internet rando

The important thing to remember about this person is that she's selling a book where she talks about Democrats being out of touch

such typical utter shit from everyone on bluesky, not just @goldengateblond in a reposting aaron rupar who always shows short clips so you don't know if it is taken out of context b it is clearly the guy mean't to be an american in an non literal sense whatever

cleanse our timeline mut the words "cheesecake" and "Lulu" cause the first is over, and aside from one guy @jacobtlevy.bsky.social I hope that is the righ guy, no one here knows anythiing about it

If you had told me at any point in Lula's 1st or 2nd term not only that I would be rooting for him in the future ... but also that I'd be rooting for his *4th* term, when he's *80*, after multiple corruption convictions... and that I would think it was of *urgent global importance* for him to win...

Bluesky: anecdotes are not data, if you want to know what people think, you need hiQ polls bluesky: anecdotes are fine when they agree with our priors

why is this post so incredibly valuable ? 31% of Americans claim they have never heard of Pete Hegseth, and 20% claim they have never heard of RFK jr so when you scratch your head and wonder, how on earth can someone vote for Trump well, ignorance is the answer

all that is wrong with social media in one screenshot a throw away shitpost by palmer gets over a 1000 likes imp work from the nyt gets 88

this is just utter nonsense as Herbert Simon famously said, if something can't go on forever, it won't The data center boom is slowing down, a lot, cause the money is running out (more accurately, the interest rate on loans for construction has skyrocketed)

this canvass location is cold and there's no bathroom 🙁 and listening to organizers talk on zoom 🤢

We need a better way to talk about EV drives. If Rolls Royce says "This car has a 6.7 liter V12" everyone's all "oooh" and "aahhhh," "amazing." If they say "it's an EV" people are just like "....k?" Gotta say something like, "It's a triple-0 helix encabulator" or whatever. That'll get people buying

Many of you don't like the NYT or other mainstream media cause you feel it is to easy on the right wing and I think yo ar correct on the other hand, this sort of post is worse how on earth does Mr Chadbourn know anything at all about what Elon Musk is thinking ? @chadbourn.bsky.social

every straight guy who has seen annie hall, the one thing they are sure to remember "I have a new disease. Invisibility to teenage girls"

the replies are the content I crave so much fun

not being a computer person, this took me a few seconds, but when I got it, very droll

Nancy is a rare c.1910 Paris breathing automaton that uses hidden bellows and air chambers to mimic human respiration and hand movements, a hallmark of Edwardian mechanical engineering now displayed at the House of Automata. IG: @naomi.paxton
