If I want Americans to take one lesson from Hungary it’s this: you can win even IF the system is rigged against you. Fascism is so fundamentally weak that it can be beaten with even limited democracy.

“The reason why the Artemis mission has everyone so fascinated is because it is a showcase for the efforts of people who are very, very good at their jobs, at a time when the news cycle is dominated by people who are not merely terrible at their jobs, but awful human beings as well.”

This is also why sexism and racism can be harnessed for this form of “populist” politics.

"Light Fossils" dinosaur light painting by artist Darren Pearson, known as Darius Twin, using a unique photography technique. The artwork is created using long-exposure photography, where the camera shutter remains open while the artist moves handheld lights to "draw" the figures in real-time.

On the IMAX baby, cant wait.

Keep a sketchbook. Make it a regular practice to draw in it. It is the most valuable practice of all and a massive source for inspiration when you want to make a finished painting. Your whole soul is in there.

You’ve got less than three hours. Go.

How it feels doing literally any task right now.

Picard ethics tip: The fact that a conflict has many sides does not imply that every side has merit.

He needs to be removed from office immediately. Everyone with a phone needs to contact their reps today. Everyone!

Is it me or has iOS autocomplete become complete garbage over time?

And people wonder why I say the NYT has taken a hard right turn.

Won this little buddy from a claw game. Very, very pleased.

Even in a world where LLM never existed this is solid mentoring

And here’s why this goes beyond the Gulf. If this stands, it’s a template. Any industry can now claim national security to erase species protections anywhere in the country.

Just putting this here so I can look at it later.

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

Call your Senators! Lots of voter suppression in this bill.

Mileships finally arrived! Worth the wait @ianmcque.bsky.social!

The 2026 National Science Foundation budget is $8.75 Billion.

No one in the trump administration can explain why we’re in gulf war 3–stupid Trump worried about midterms wants to make it impossible to vote —- stupid but also scary Trump administration filled with kleptocrats —-stupid but also annoying

4 days ago, NPR reported that the Trump administration is still withholding, in violation of the Epstein files statutes, 37 pages of documents that implicate him in the rape of a child. This should end his presidency. www.npr.org/2026/03/05/n...

oh that is awesome, well deserved! congrats @ocornut.bsky.social

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

i would sooner staple my dick to a moving car than use this trash tech4gamers.com/windows-12-r...

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Im 38 and have never known a day in my life where the dems and republicans weren't salivating at the chance to bomb Iran. The amount of lies and propaganda we've been fed for decades was always going culminate into this. Solidarity with the people of Iran forever.

Please make a terrible ruckus about this, if you live in Oregon

every game should have a mont st michel level

It breaks my heart to imagine the terror our government subjected this man to. Threatened in a language he couldn't understand, tased by thugs he couldn't see, and then left to die in the Buffalo winter.

Recurring pattern: The US makes policy choices that have massive policy consequences for other countries, but rate at best a couple days of domestic news coverage. Then a decade or two later we’re utterly baffled that people in those places despise us. www.liberalcurrents.com/what-elon-ha...

very important video please watch

This is the most incredible footage of blue whales I’ve ever seen

BREAKING: I read the new version of the “Save America Act” (S. 1383) so u don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Point 1 is new. It requires that all 50 states send their voter rolls to the DHS to run thru DHS’s faulty “SAVE” voter purge program. Points 6 & 7 are new too. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE 1/

A British grandmother with a valid visa detained by ICE for 6 weeks. "So why did ICE detain her, and keep her locked up for so long? ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone. 'Individual ICE agents get money per head that they detain – the guards told me that,' Karen says."

President Trump's efforts to end birthright citizenship are part of a broader effort to redefine who belongs in our country — we refuse to let that happen. Add your name to support the fundamental right of birthright citizenship.

The artist who created the latest @theatlantic.com cover said that they used a VR sculpting tool and Blender. Maybe they used Medium or Modeler? Amazing but also ironic since the AI bubble essentially sucked the oxygen out of the Metaverse bubble by which Medium & Modeler were boosted at the time 😅

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.” - 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas. Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

There is no easier or more important political position to take than to do everything possible to stop this. It will change our society forever, and Democrats are going along with it.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

These are concentration camps and its our duty as citizens to ensure these things don't get built.

This is your regular reminder that in the year 2000, Paul Rudd, with frosted tips, appeared in the Hong Kong film GEN-Y COPS as a bad guy (kinda). In the movie, he does martial arts, fights a robot, and, most shocking of all, does an entire scene in Cantonese.
