It’s gonna be a pretty solid weekend if social media is flooded with clips of Laura Loomer getting her ass handed to her in-person by Indian journalists. Shout-out to Rajdeep Sardesai for kicking off the festivities.
This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon.

I've got at least one nomination for every category at the Hugo Awards! Don't forget to nominate in -every- category. The "smaller ones" are important! So much talent to be recognized, don't skip out. #HugoAwards #BookSky

This is a cool way to do it. And I just learned a lot about her! Thanks.
Reading a recent book about spinosaurus. Love it.
Ruin a book or band name with one letter:
Ann of Green Gables
this means it is not open for transit
Last year, only 219 people nominated at least one Poem in the nominating phase of the Hugo Awards.
Two poems almost made the ballot, but were a vote or two shy.
Good reminder that I need to finish putting in for every category.
I have your TRex book preordered!
I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:

AI and research do not… work together. It just makes up why you want. Or whatever.
The Second Coming does not rely upon our actions. Jesus isn’t waiting around for us to check off a certain number of things on a list. And God does not revel in war.
The Jesus Myth theory and creationism are both absurd.
We went to the Dinosaur Safari Boston & had so much fun! 🦖 I've loved dinosaurs ever since I was a kid!
Last year, I posted a list of 20 dinosaur novels for adults, so if you want a dino-mite read, please check it out! (link in comments) 📖🌿

The reason I fight so hard for trans kids is because I was a trans kid myself. I knew who I was in the year 2000, 12 years old, behind my computer, using the name Erin. I wanted puberty blockers so badly. My body shifted and changed in horrifying ways that I suffered for 15 years over.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

First they came for the trans people, and I said nothing because I wasn’t trans. Then they were like actually I’m pretty sure you are trans and I said no I’m not and they went okay well show us your penis then and I said what no get out of my face and they said that one’s a girl get her
CNN put together a video illustrating that while Trump regime officials keep describing the Iran strikes as a "war," Republican members of Congress are using all sorts of euphemisms
