Today’s xkcd made me cry. In a good way. xkcd.com/3172/

I first hear Todd when he opened for John Prine in San Francisco when I was in grad school, and his albums were a mainstay for me. Shitty news.

"In an internal memo from September, CEO Sam Altman said that OpenAI’s “audacious long-term goal is to build 250 gigawatts of capacity by 2033.” If Altman achieves this goal, OpenAI will need almost exactly as much electricity as India’s 1.5 billion people" Great @truthdig.com piece on chips ->

394 pounds each, sounds like someone with a firm grasp of reality.

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

ICE Agent, 7-Year-Old Both Wearing Same ‘Military Commando’ Halloween Costume

This man? Not actually related to the Tanners at all, yet they call him "Uncle Joey"

i should be able to click a button at the beginning of a sports season that says “i’m normal” and i don’t get served any ads for crypto or gambling

One thing I’ve learned from listening to @500songspodcast.bsky.social is how limited the oldies radio we listened to when I was a kid was. So many other great songs!

Historically the better my teams do the worse the world is and vice versa so with that Liverpool performance today I’m expecting some big things.

I was a postdoc in Syracuse the 23K was a little more than half my yearly salary

Oh man, the New York Young Republicans implicated in the Nazi groupchat scandal ran up a $23,000 tab eating filet mignon and drinking at a hotel in Syracuse -- a city with one of the highest child poverty rates *in the nation* -- and then refused to pay the bill.

More than 11 million tonnes of meat is consumed in cities in the US every year, according to an analysis in Nature Climate Change. This equates to 329 million tonnes of carbon emissions, which is comparable to emission levels from US domestic fossil fuel use. go.nature.com/3Jo8DEh 🧪

Here's a howdy-do. I'm in San Antonio for #GSA2025 but have lost my wallet! I have my passport and got my hotel room so eating and sleeping are OK. I'm not helpless, but am without cash. I brought 3 copies of "Deep Oakland" with me just in case someone wants to buy one. Cash sales only! DM/email me.

this is an absolutely world-class troll

Allosaurus Things Considered

DHS is officially on Bluesky. Bluesky friends, you know what that means. It’s time we beat the record for most blocked account (currently held by JD Vance).

During this quake I was 90 miles away at soccer practice and felt nothing, but lots of people in Sacramento did and we had to write about it in class the next day, so I wrote about other people's experiences instead (my mom and friend) and my teacher gave me a C which I still haven't forgiven.

Logic doesn't matter to them of course but with all of the targeting of blue states remember there as many republicans in California as there are in Texas, and more democrats in Texas than New York or Massachusetts.

With all science conservatives want to make it about individuals, but experts don't expect anyone to trust them, that's why they publish their methods and data and submit to peer review. Charlatans and snake oil salesmen expect you to trust them, experts don't.

Thanks for this, Mike! I've been ordering from EcoEnclose for years. In my experience, the big problem with convincing people to switch is Uline's admittedly high quality. Great to see alternatives that might better align with buyers' values without forcing them to compromise on standards.

In the latest episode of Mystery AI Hype Theater 3000, journalist @reveleth.com joins @alexhanna.bsky.social & @emilymbender.bsky.social to talk about how tech bosses love science fiction novels, but can't seem to understand them! Listen here: www.buzzsprout.com/2126417/epis...

This John Oliver segment on the disaster that is Bari Weiss does a great job of explaining why this particular grift is so bad/dangerous. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gieT...

Started a new thread about SW Colorado flooding. I shouldn't have joked about ending the drought; 7000 cfs will be devastating to the community along Vallecito Creek.

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

If museums are makin' you sad, maybe blame your great, great grandpa instead of the museums.

The implication of this lie is of course that you can determine someone’s citizenship status just by looking at them, which is some typical republican racist assholery.

Vance: "If you're an American citizen & you've been to the hospital in the last few years, you've probably noticed wait times are especially large & very often somebody who's there in the ER is an illegal alien. Why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens?"

Jane Goodall on Donald Trump: “I see the same sort of behavior as a male chimpanzee will show when he’s competing for dominance with another
