Turkiye spelling issue just reminding me how weird it is that in the 21st century there's still a handful of countries we refer to in English with totally different names than the actual people of that country use.

"Vermax forgot he can breathe fire" is the new "Dany forgot about the iron fleet"

Hey, so, I really don't think we can live in a country where we allow these people to have any power whatsoever. We have to take it by whatever means necessary.

Was thinking about upgrading my 2-year-old Surface Pro to the Snapdragon X2 model. The exact same specs are $300 more expensive this year. I guess I'm waiting.

They do this every few years and never have anything to show for it.

A friendly empirical note for those losing it over progressive primary wins: ideological positioning barely explains Democratic vote shares since 2006. Turnout explains a lot. The party can run to the center all it wants. It won’t help if the base doesn’t show up.

Ah, using "AI enhancement" for engagement, with no concerns of the risks it might create for innocent people.

How much effort would it take to report 2 calls/day when nothing would be done?

Oh, he's so close to getting it.

Lunacy. Here's Emmer 10 years ago.

If someone wants to rank preprints based on a probabilistic language generator, that's their business. I think it's more objectionable that author photos are posted alongside an apparently hallucinated quote attributed to them.

Yes. Also, adding a few left-leaning members isn't blowing anything up.

If someone from the FBI visits you about your algae posts the correct thing to do is to say you won’t talk with them. Please do not talk to the FBI. Like, at all. They have no sense of humor and they will take your stupid joke and charge you with lying to an agent.

Statement on Supreme Court Temporary Protected Status Ruling: The City of Boston condemns this decision by Donald Trump’s enablers on the U.S. Supreme Court to allow the administration to end protections for TPS holders. This ruling is as cruel as it is lawless.

What a country

I've wasted my life...

Commerce will not rest until text messages are as useless as phone calls.

IMPORTANT to know that the vast majority of Haitians with TPS entered the country legally at ports of entry, not illegally. The majority have NEVER violated the law. The admin stripped their status by breaking the law, but today SCOTUS says courts can't do anything about that.

These are the exact words she posted: “BREAKING: The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in broad daylight has been identified as Jonathan Ross by the Minnesota Star Tribune. I think today is a great day for Jonathan to be indicted!”

🧵NEW: For more than a decade, police in South West England have been quietly experimenting with algorithms to score thousands of people. Most of them didn't know anything about it. Over two years, me and Mark Wilding investigated the messy setup, multiple parts have now been scrapped

That'll do it. Too bad we don't have something like functioning government that would be effective at protecting us from the Musks of the world.

Bro, bro, what's your goose value?

It was the goose that created value.

“Tour operators were instructed to buy [nonresident] passes in bulk online in advance, but no effective system exists for that. Processing tour buses has caused delays both for passengers and for other park visitors.”

Primaries are a part of a democracy! People have agency! Why don't people get this?

So the texts with your ugly face will stop? Good!

Big and very shallow = very, very bad.

Whoa, the Venezuela earthquake looks very bad. Lots of big buildings collapsed in dense urban areas.

When a Jew wins a landslide election in the most Jewish city in the United States, where massive numbers of Jews turned out to reject a terrorist org that lobbies for genocide:

would love to see the modeling behind the 20-year price outlook lot of shit going to go down between now and 2046

I even saw Chris Murphy ratioing this guy (Harrison) and I keep thinking Murphy is really a fascinating politician. Most of the time he seems like a regular guy who has good instincts and feels the horror of it all the same way you and I do and then he'll be like "our immigration bill

tfw you used Claude to write your NDAA amendment but forgot to hide your tracks

The latest outbreak of Ebola disease has surpassed 1,000 cases since April. We have almost no idea of where Bundibugyo virus came from. Here's my story on the search for the disease's reservoirs. Gift link: nyti.ms/4eHK2pO

Lander: "Democratic voters are saying loud and clear they don't want to pay for any more of Netanyahu's wars"

The idea of doing a ten-year multibillion dollar project to prevent a center-lane bus is both impossible and ridiculous. We can’t even dig a tiny hole to connect the red and blue MBTA lines - a far easier project! #bospoli www.bostonglobe.com/2026/06/23/m...

So between now and the heat death of the universe.

Generally speaking, polls have shown the Democratic Party's problem is not being seen as too woke, but weak and ineffective. Judging by tonight's primary results, Democratic Primary voters are intent on fixing this www.gelliottmorris.com/p/new-poll-d...

The people who don’t understand that it really does matter that Democrats unanimously voted to confirm Marco Rubio when he had the votes anyway are probably the most confused right now.

Dude, actual leftist extremists would be calling for the forced seizure of wealth for redistribution, destruction of the capitalist system, radical measures to stem climate change, and more. Not “let’s tax rich people a little more and give kids free lunch.”

When reality surpasses fiction! Top: fictional forecast for August 2050, broadcast by French TV in 2014 to warn about the consequences of global warming. Bottom: Real French forecast for yesterday, June 22, 2026.

Just tried "Hyperlapse" auto-timelapse feature on my Samsung phone, it's pretty cool. I'll need to play with it more.

It's so funny that what would be a minor HR reprimand gets treated like a scandal, when *gestures at DC, which Healey is doing fuck all about*.

Guys it's not real.

Not a craft forum, not the early internet, but Ye Olde Science Twitter had a sock puppet fake professor who "died" when it got too hard to keep up the game. Some genres of bullshit never go out of style.
