We all deserve a giant brave planet.

Perhaps they should have spent $200 talking to a physicist first.

I am categorically unable to watch the new sf blockbuster "Project Hail Mary" because the idea that humans could in any way whatsoever affect the sun is so ludicrous that I would scream at the screen from opening titles until end credits non-stop.

Readers may not be aware that all Philip had to do was ask nicely and he already got my “expert advice” on his (very good) book Citizen Scholar. No slop, no bullshit.

We should all do more of that: Reach out to humans we know and/or trust.

I am looking for a service to clean my garbage cans. One has a very nice site and big professional pictures of people who recommend it.
I went and checked that these are real people!
But I hate having to do this.
But what professional writers are having to do is unthinkable and unfair.

I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasn’t gotten around to doing anything about it yet.

Goldman executive says private markets clients ‘glad’ about Iran war ‘distraction’ Kunal Shah, co-head of the US bank’s international business, made comments on call about the conflict

have they tried "heated rivalry"?

"Shah remarked that some of the bank’s 'private markets clients' were 'just glad there’s something to talk about that isn’t software exposures and private credit'."

List of people who are sad to hear Howard Schultz is leaving Seattle after passing the millionaire tax, years after selling our Sonics away and setting up a culture at Starbucks where unionizing stores is banned:

A Tetchy Cornyn Shoves a Hand in the Camera when Pressed on His Filibuster Flip-Flop SAVE Act Switcheroo In his latest act of self-debasement to win President...

In his latest act of self-debasement to win Trump’s endorsement, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) on Wednesday penned a cringing op-ed in the New York Post in which he agreed to drop his longtime support for the Senate filibuster.

Break the deal and walk off in disgust?

This is really dangerous. The Trump Administration is moving us backwards on disability and homelessness issues in so many ways.

Ok, this contour and highlighter. Nose contour, buccal contour and shiny on the high points.
Looks like he got a better makeup person

Dewy! A glow up!

We want Jetsons

I'm so tired.

This is spreading all over Bluesky today and is wildly misleading--it is from eight months ago and it is in reference to working with NATO allies and arming Ukraine.

I wish this were addressed in discussion as well.

Not even for kitty litter!

Thune is going to bring it next week but no whipping, filibuster or anything.

I enjoyed an audiobook of a similar type, but remember that these were initially self published and may have benefited from an editor.
