I used to work on subsea robots for underwater mine detection and the hypothetical worse case scenario was always “imagine if they mined the strait of Hormuz”
sigh
Reminder from @gwlandtrust.bsky.social:
if you are going out on our now muddy New England trails: COUNTERINTUITIVELY, walk THROUGH the puddles, and not around them!

in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy
Okay fair
I actually really liked the first two parts of that book but yes, the realistic “fuck you got mine” vibes were… realistic

I don’t think people who aren’t regularly covering the reproductive rights beat realize how common it is for women to be incarcerated for miscarriages.
the most dead-eyed soulless capitalists can read fossil fuels’ writing on the wall and are investing in clean energy. the problem is there are more people exist who romanticize fossil fuels because coal miners and roughnecks are men
Solar energy growth is starting to go parabolic, we have the technology to solve this we just need to put in the effort to deploy it.
NBC News poll Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.
Truly a perfect news alert
The lobster thing comes up every few years and always causes outrage in the press. They're for special holiday dinners for service members serving overseas, usually. Here's a Washington Times article from January 2025 complaining about Biden's DoD spending money on steak and lobster in 2024.
The Singularity is upon us: Apple's AI summarized a text message that read "I'm still down to clown if you are" to.... "clown event still possible."
We did this two years ago and it was perfect to bulk up the litter layer in our chicken run, fill in under the swingset playhouse, stuff like that! And it was FAST holy crap
AOC came out swinging against age verification legislation and somehow the entire tech press seems to not have noticed?
cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

if you're rooting for the end of civilization because you think it'll involve more "running around in artfully ripped clothes with a nail bat" than "spending large parts of your life thinking about soil quality" you are in for an incredibly disappointing surprise
bluesky being immediately negatively polarized into going with skeets because we were asked not to was the first sign that we were going to make it as a posting site
every true posting forum declares forever war against the mods
the weather in Boston got so nice that it's 69 degrees out and there's still snow on the ground
The weather in Boston tomorrow will finally reach my favorite era of recorded music, the low to mid 70s

people are like “ooh, I just love how New England gets all four seasons” and I open up Reddit the day after I get back to California from Boston and I see this post
This video does a great job of helping folks understand the reasons why you would use process/greenscreen/LED walls for certain shots and shoot on location for other certain shots in a sequence, with an angle on stunts and action. Extremely well done.

I am usually on my best behavior there but I need the shitposting relief valve here. Long may it reign.
Watched @andrewdessler.com speak on climate and electricity -- I especially appreciated the local perspective on ERCOT and how West Texas became an aeolian powerhouse (grid investment pays off, go figure).
[UBC/local folks: I'll be on campus for the deeper dive tomorrow -- details below!]

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.
Listen. LISTEN. Everyone smart loves Deadloch. You should watch it.
