Hello from this Diamondback Terrapin in New Jersey for #TurtleTuesday #herps 🌿

cracking open a cold one with the boys

If you wanted to go buy something from my store right now, it would be VERY appreciated - I'm dealing with wrapping up my mom's hospital + rehab + home care stuff and it's gonna be $$$$ theartofcoop.bigcartel.com

I wrote a new post about the privacy risks of on-phone agents like Apple’s new Siri, and how private inference isn’t any sort of silver bullet. blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2026/06/09/a...

Last night, doctors told me I very likely have late stage ovarian cancer. I am 39. In the waiting room at the hospital, as I awaited that moment, I wrote this poem. Whoever you are, wherever you read this - live your life. In all its glory. In all its pain. Live it. It is everything.

Most of adult my life I’ve paid 15.3% of everything I earn towards Social Security and Medicare, just like every self-employed person does. It’s a little peace of mind to know this will be there when my hands can no longer play the cello. If republicans fuck with this it’s called theft.

It’s such a stupid time to be alive

New: the FCC is trying to ban burner phones by forcing all telecoms to store ID information on all new and renewing customers. That includes a government issued ID number. Massive privacy-impacting change “We never thought that would happen here,” the ACLU says www.404media.co/fcc-wants-to...

Hello, mortal! Have you paid your #SquirrelTax? @ratatosk.bsky.social

Outtake from ‘Predator 2’ (1990) where the Predators dance on the ship with Danny Glover.

Guitarist and recording innovator Les Paul was born on 9 June 1915.

TS LOMBARD: “.. The stock market’s fate is tied to the sustainability of AI capex .. “.. The risk is circular revenue: hyperscaler spending is still funding much of AI demand.”

I made a Firefox add-on that lets you find the federal court opinion/docket mentioned in a news story in one click. Using @free.law's CourtListener and RECAP of course. addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo... (this is a personal project)

Versus 2025 averages, China has cut crude and refined products imports by about 4.3mm bpd through May. That works out to somewhere between 1/3rd and 1/2 of the total deficit in petroleum created by the closure of Hormuz.

If you were thinking “huh, wonder if they showed up at some voter’s house because there was some filler birthdate in the database, maybe something like super obvious from 126 years ago like, idk, 1/1/1900” than wow great guess spot on.

I know, i know It's serious...

Treatments based on the same mRNA technology that delivered COVID-19 vaccines to market in record time are showing lasting benefit against the deadly skin cancer melanoma and early promise in pancreatic and brain cancers once considered impervious to immune system assault.

I just realized Brian Setzer’s “Rock This Town” and the Benny Hill theme song are in the same key and now you too are cursed with this knowledge

"Something remarkable happened in April. For the first time in history, wind and solar generated more electricity than gas across the entire planet. Not in a country. Not in a region. Globally." Tons of great news here from Danny Kennedy (via @billmckibben.bsky.social's newsletter, which rules).

And now, a non-bug

Once again, the nonexistence of mass voter fraud is a scientifically proven fact, backed by mountains of decades of data, akin to the knowledge that the sun rises in the East & water has both adhesive & cohesive properties. There should be consequences in public life for constantly lying otherwise.

This guy has a great series -- his breakdown of the hybrid synergy drive verges on erotica for nerds like me -- but this is the great one to send to the loved one who doesn't get the whole renewables thing. He is boring and Midwestern and effective as hell. youtu.be/KtQ9nt2ZeGM?...

there's a non-zero chance that DOGE was afraid of the Transgender Screwworm

American Basswood (Tilia americana) They're pretty cool trees! They grow pretty quick, ultimately kind of big, reproduce quick if you let them, and Pollinators & wildlife love them! #Trees #NativePlants #Ontario #Canada

You cannot do this with OA books, just saying... I mean, it is great that "Medievalism, Popular Culture and Metal Music" is open access at @intellectbooks.bsky.social, but having the physical thing is beautiful.

How late is our CME? Not that late, actually! The official forecast was always for the solar storm to impact close to sunrise for North American chasers. The yellow line is the current time. We are only three hours behind schedule and within the margin of error for the official model.

New from me @notus.com: The DOJ has cancelled biannual election-crimes classes for investigators. It deleted the manual that explains how to avoid tampering with votes. And it isn't prepping for the usual Election Day command center at FBI hq. www.notus.org/2026-electio...
