This period is going to be a shitstain on the reputation of USA for decades to come.

This is how you write a headline.

I guess it's mental health day? Burnout is real. Don't think you're immune to it, you're not. You likely won't know you're burned out until either you're at your breaking point or you're forced out of what's burning you out and all you feel is relief. Talking about it helps 🫂

Tonight I took the car and drove across all of Kyiv, just to see how my beloved city feels at this time. It’s a strange feeling.

My essay on rogue AI has been republished by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists — “Rogue AI didn’t breach Hugging Face, human decisions did.” Grateful to @thebulletin.org for the invitation!

Hey everybody. On the 25-year anniversary, we're reprinting the much revered 9/11 edition of The Onion and sending that free to every member this month. It's been 25 long years. Look back in anger.

Fuck you Google. We will all remember your capitulation to a mad king

thank you the new yorker and françoise for having me do this cover for the late, great dolly parton

This needs to be studied.

FYI there is no "real" reason why Rome "fell." Its power waned for the usual, mundane reasons: widening gap between rich and poor, inability to maintain infrastructure, incompetent leadership, pointless wars, endless persecution of marginalized groups who performed vital labor, etc.

Incredible moment where Fox News puts up a graphic with all the reasons it opposes the DSA and why people should be afraid of them

my kind of Jubilee, the Japanese national team vs. 100 kids

"Why are they even bombing us? Where is the air defense?" The day of rhetorical questions for Moscow residents.

When Hitler fell, the purging of that mindset wasn’t de-Hitlerification, it was de-Nazification. When Saddam fell, it wasn’t de-Saddamification, it was de-Baathification. When Trump falls, it will be de-MAGAfication, not de-Trumpification. The entire movement’s hatred and corruption must be purged.

A trillionaire isn’t a success story. it’s a policy failure.

"Something remarkable happened in April. For the first time in history, wind and solar generated more electricity than gas across the entire planet. Not in a country. Not in a region. Globally." Tons of great news here from Danny Kennedy (via @billmckibben.bsky.social's newsletter, which rules).

Here's an easter egg in the new Lego Batman that I think all of you will REALLY appreciate. It's so good, I had to make a video.

Some call it sleeping. I call it rehearsing.

The lady opposite me on the train was reading this. To be fair she was only on the first chapter.

A livestream of a volcano in the Philippines captured a meteor crashing to Earth today. What are the odds? Mayon Volcano, Location: Albay, Luzon, Philippines

The Earth–Mars–Moon mosaic I made a few days ago, now formatted as a mobile phone wallpaper.

Rather annoyed by todays' media coverage of Rubios comment that Trump is 'very disappointed' in NATO. The disappointment most certainly goes both ways.

This amazing tree photo will always be one of my favorites, its been around a long time so I do not know who to credit it with.

On this day in 2019, I witnessed one of the coolest things ever. A lenticular cloud lit-up by a setting sun over the Perito Morena Glacier in Argentina.

Now get out and vote in the midterms like your life depends on it, because it does. #NoKings

The thing about escalating to deescalate is that it looks quite similar to escalation.

Brilliant sweepthestrait.com

theyre just all so fucking stupid and we were told we had to be respectful and treat their stupid fucking opinions seriously even though we knew its all bull shit and now here we are

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds. I support neither imperialism or dictatorship. Sahar Delijani said it best:

This book has the most scathing dedication by an illustrator I have ever seen (and he is completely right) #kidlit

This is an important point. Empathy—in and of itself—is anti-fascist. The arts—and the project of higher education as a whole—teach empathy, enabling you to put yourself in other people’s shoes. So to a fascist, they must be destroyed.
