No they just invented algebra. Fucking moron

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

To mark Columbus Day, I am going to get lost in my kitchen looking for a new way to the spice cabinet. Happy Indigenous Peoples Day.

JFC now what? Try again?

This is horrific. Horrific for its barbarism, but also utterly unsurprising that a political party that can't win wars, can't control gas prices, can't bring down grocery prices and can't stop basic preventable diseases also can't kill prisoners correctly.

Reacher and Neagley is a fairy tale universe that speaks to our times because it features extremely competent, honorable heroes who defend the defenseless from powerful people preying on them and who fuckin' LOVE murdering the shit out of these elite bad guys. They have so much fun murdering! 😀

...rotating a piece of clear calcite toward the sky creates two images of equal brightness only when pointing directly at the Sun. This allowed the Vikings to navigate the fog-dense North Atlantic, even when the sun was entirely hidden behind clouds or below the horizon. Great demo of this here:

What reporters and pundits are missing about Trump's $5,000 bribe offer is that it is a pure mobster con. Because 100% of the money, plus all the future interest, will be paid by US taxpayers, Trump is simply offering to "give" Americans their own money, and leave their kids holding the bag.

Wait a minute. Doesn’t everyone do this? 😂

How to know I’m 6,000 years old: when a representative in a store is giving me instructions, I write it down on the back of my hand and then snap a pic of it with my phone. As opposed to typing those instructions in. Because phone-typing is a whole huge endeavor I try avoid when at all possible.

Are you fucking kidding me?!?! How the ever living fuck did Badie beat out Jaleel McLaughlin?!?

Andrew Mason@masedenver.bsky.social

George Paton: "Probably the last decision we made" was at RB4, where Tyler Badie got the nod over Jaleel McLaughlin and Cody Schrader.

Lotta ugly last night. Defense was disappointing

The good, the bad and the UGLY from the Broncos' preseason loss to the Packers ... and the good news for Broncos Country is this: The good was VERY GOOD, and much of it involved Bo Nix, Jaylen Waddle and RJ Harvey, three key elements to 2026 success. My report:

A reminder that developing and deploying the bomb

Stephen Schwartz@atomicanalyst.bsky.social

In the same issue, J. Robert Oppenheimer and Edward Teller were asked, “Would you make the bomb again?” Oppenheimer: “… In that world, in that war, it was the only thing to do. I only regret that it was not done two years earlier. It would have saved a million or more lives.”

Larry the Cat, the appointed Chief Mouser of Downing Street, has now outlasted 6 UK Prime Ministers, and the Queen herself. He holds the true power over the country

This solo never gets old

Hoodlum 🇺🇸@nothoodlum.bsky.social

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame performance of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” honoring George Harrison, featured Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Steve Winwood, Dhani Harrison, Marc Mann, Steve Ferrone, and a killer closing guitar solo by Prince. (Edited for format)

maybe it's women using AI less because we're already good to go on the experience of rich men stealing our ideas, taking the credit, not paying us for them, and selling us the results at rapidly increasing prices

It's official! I'm *permanently* banned from X for tweeting "TLDR: Fascism." (appeal denied) What an honor—and a sign that the Silicon Valley billionaires feel threatened by my book. (One of my final viral posts featured this cover.) Pre-order here! www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Ne...

Gil Durán@gilduran.com

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X. I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!). So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

Mini review of “The Devil Wears Prada 2” Movie was better than I expected. Bit more serious than the first. I thought Andy’s love interest wasn’t needed and the ending was fan service. I bet there’s a #3 under discussion.

No, seriously, you have no idea what's going on at the DC Hilton, and neither do I. Neither do many of the people that are there. And unless you're part of the law enforcement effort, you don't really need to figure this out in the next ten minutes.

My best parent advice: always have a towel when you travel with kids. It’s a makeshift pillow, changing station, shade from the window, soak up a mess. The list is endless.

Doctors say that most serious childhood diseases are caused by viruses. A guy who eats dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says they are caused by radiation from 5G cell phone towers. For a busy parent, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Crazy video of 20 Tomahawks flying through the Iraqi Kurdish mountains near Sulaymaniyah (filmed by someone standing *above* them), seemingly fired from Navy vessels in the Mediterranean

The US Department of Defense said they “had nothing to provide” when asked if they had reached any agreement with Iraq to utilize their airspace for cruise missiles targeting a third country. www.bellingcat.com/news/middle-...
