Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

The problem with Butlerian Jihad discourse is that we are, each of us, also machines in the likeness of a human mind

"Anyway, with the Hungarian election this Sunday, there's going to be a techno party in from of the parliament building." "That's maybe the most European thing I've ever heard."

it's a testament to the majesty of Old Plant that now he can take something from Zeppelin II--the Gollum song, even--and make it beautiful

NASA is surely one of the best things we have ever done. 🫢 😭 youtu.be/oaXRREHVkHo?...

True story: a little over twenty years ago I had just discovered science fiction cons and heard about a small local one called Potlatch. I sat in the back at the opening event, and a short-haired older woman sat next to me and introduced herself as Ursula. I didn't know enough to be star-struck.

That's what sh-NO CARRIER

Sign of the times: a DM thread that is just exchanging Avignon 2026 posts with increasingly emphatic "holy shit" comments

I think the non-use of nuclear weapons should be everyone's goal. I do not think our current policy is adequate to guaranteeing that task in the face of the fact that vastly unqualified, dangerous, and deranged sociopaths are capable of getting into the highest echelons of American government.

Come on then, and remove him.

If we do not destroy ourselves.

A friend described doing an exercise w/ a group of students from around the world, asking them to write down the best & worst thing about a bunch of different countries. Answers varied a lot for all countries except for one: every single person said the best thing about the USA is NASA.

Looking at them looking at us looking back at them.

Timely reminder that Space Group Hug represents who we're supposed to be.

Y'all there is a woman and a black man circling the moon and NASA's mission control+ science teams are so diverse and people are nerding out about science and exploration this is all a gigantic middle finger to the stupid and hate and grotesque ghouls running our country

Bentley & Ferrari have been in our rescue since they were just 6 weeks old— they’ll have been with us one entire year next month. Shy at first but playful & chatty, they don’t even need to be adopted together (though they would like to be if you’ve room for two!) www.petfinder.com/member/us/md...

Travel writer Rick Steves on Washington's newly signed "Millionaires Tax"

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”

If they're actually so foolish as to make the coin out of 24kt gold, we'll be able to literally de-face it.

Here's my breaking up with Harry Potter essay comic- if you need some fuel to convince relatives or friends not to watch the new show, maybe this will help: redgoldsparkspress.com/projects/718...

I am thinking very mean, rude, and even anatomically improbable thoughts about someone very powerful who would like to make that fact illegal and might wish they could stop me. (They cannot.)

The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of geometric solids.

I grew up Irish-American on the East Coast in the 80s-90s, and gradually became aware from family and pop culture that there was a long civil war; in school it was treated as history and literature. I knew Good Friday '98 was a big deal when it happened. I had just registered for the US draft.

Well played.

As a treat.

Genevieve Ferrari and @tinafriml.bsky.social killed on stage in Seattle last night. Go see them at Laughs on Roosevelt tonight!
