Defending the frontier against the Xur and the Ko-Dan armada.

Whosoever lifts his nose to the tainted wind, and cries out the foulness of the air, let all hands mark him well; for it is a truth as old as the sea that who first discerns it is most often near kin to the bowels that loosed it. Aye, the guilty man is ever the swiftest to proclaim the crime…

NeoCities has convinced me that I've wasted my life and need better hobbies. Better hobbies meaning any hobby whatsoever.

Shut up, The Legend of Zelda isn't 40 years old. *My spirit leaving my body*

Not to brag on the internet but my non-verbal son yelled "GO BIRDS!" a few moments ago for that last Eagles touchdown.

Damn, this is the perfect lazy CICO lunch. Not only tasty, but 420 calories with ~1/3rd daily value of fat and sodium, and 7g of fiber and FOUR DOLLARS at my local market. I slept on this way too long. Time to stock up enough to horrify my wife the next time she opens the freezer.

Not gonna lie, Michael Angelo's eggplant parmigiana kinda slaps for a microwave meal.

A spectacular X-ray tribute to a fantastic NASA mission. Swift has perhaps weeks left before it burns up during re-entry to Earth's atmosphere, after two decades of chasing the universe's biggest stellar explosions. badastronomy.beehiiv.com/p/an-x-ray-t... 🔭 🧪

You must go home and be born over again; you don’t know how to cook a whale-steak yet.

Burning down Berghof, Hitler’s Bavarian holiday home, is just about the most sane thing any right minded person should do. But, evidently, it took a mentally ill person to do it. Watching it get rebuilt instead of razed and the earth under it salted is going to be tragic.

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

This article came out six weeks ago, there's enough public evidence that @foreignpolicy.com let me say "bribed" without caveat, and still, the new Kushner revelations show he was BRIBED. Directly bribed. Right into secret foreign accounts bribed. Massively corrupt, ultimately world-changing bribes.
