A bright spot on the Moon has been nicknamed “Carroll” by the Artemis II crew. It honors Carroll Taylor Wiseman, late wife of commander Reid Wiseman, who passed away in 2020 after a brave battle with cancer. #ArtemisII #NASA

I said this in replies elsewhere, but I want to say it loudly here. Anything other than a fullthroated affirmation of birthright citizenship in this country by SCOTUS is an act of treason. It is grounds for immediate impeachment. It is a violation of every oath they have made.

This is an international airport, with huge numbers of non-Americans for tourism/business in and out. How do they know this isn't someone like that?

I do not know why neither Judge Stanton nor the magistrate assigned to this case declined to rule on substantial similarity, but I do have a guess. In order to rule on substantial similarity, they would have had to read both works in their entirety, and they didn't want to.

Recently attended a presentation to Archbishop McElroy of candidates seeking to join or rejoin Catholicism at the DC Basilica. Maybe 1500 people, just from DC and MoCo churches. 80-90% were Latino, Asian, African. Immigrants are the growing American Catholic community

There was no grace period and many weren't notified. It is more or less a mathematical inevitability that people will be charged for suspended licenses who had no idea their legally issued license was invalidated overnight for being trans.

There is a great deal of schadenfreude in watching every AI company's carefully crafted alignment scheme to avoid existential risk do a faceplant on first contact with the most obvious features of the society it operates in.

Random little things I learned from the internet.😊 The word bookkeeper has 3 consecutive double letters. Month, orange, silver and purple - nothing rhymes. Facetious has all the vowels in order. You can now return to your regularly scheduled scrolling.

New obsession just dropped

Okay, found this color-matching game and I'm kind of obsessed. My best score is 43.67/50, because there is an inverse relationship between "how good is my brain at something" and "how likely is this to help me manage my life"
