Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

We received 125 applications for the energy policy analyst role at Gridworks. It's like sorting through an embarrassment of riches. There are so many qualified applicants, refugees from fed agencies. It's sad we can only hire one. Reach out if you're hiring; happy to forward candidates along to you.

I think it sucks that as far as I know the only way to get off a starter pack you don’t want to be on here is to block its creator but here we are. If anyone knows a more graceful way to exit a starter pack please lmk.

Feels like a good time to mention I'm primarying Tom Suozzi, one of the only 7 House Dems to vote for ICE funding last month. www.votewelch.com

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies. For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange cat wandered over to sit with me in the grass.

Wow the exact same amount he was suing the IRS for. He just took it. Not only impeachable but [Redacted] as well.

Anyone know anyone with solutions for dm_control/dog fetch task? Anyone with an MBRL solution?

I cannot believe that it was less than two weeks ago that the President of the United States shit his pants on live television and we have...forgot about it?

The Zapruder film we deserve

Put another way, we could get rid of corn ethanol, switch 30% of the freed-up farmland to solar to generate 100% of US electricity, and use the other 70% of the freed-up land for whatever we want.

What do you MEAN the president audibly SHIT himself live on camera and they immediately cancelled the press conference and rushed everyone out of the room like it's a fire drill, and it happened two days ago, and I'm just hearing about it NOW?

Anyone hooked an iphone up to a mac mini M4 pro to run a quadruped? Where you all at?

Hi everyone -- there is a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow to protest what the Trump administration and DHS are doing to our community. In solidarity with the action, I am going to donate my revenue from tmrw's newsletter to People over Papers, the Midway-Hamline Diaper Bank, & Every Meal. (1/2)

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

"You're asking me about something that the president just said... He's never going to implement it... We should talk instead about what he's doing... Every time we get distracted by what he talks about rather than what he does... he destroys and he redistributes to the rich."

People who aren't in Minnesota might not know that if you drive or walk past pretty much any school, there's going to be a group of people, parents and childless, standing guard to make sure the kids are safe from feds. It's pretty remarkable. And very disturbing. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Found out today there is a guy walking from Punta Arenas in Chile to Hull, UK. He started in 1998. He crossed the Bering Strait on foot. 152 miles following shifting ice. He also crossed the Darien Gap and swam the Caspian Sea in his "Goliath Expedition". 🤯 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Bu...

A public database of ice, ice agents, DHS, etc. Has now been built and it's entirely outside of the US and US government reach.

Ken Paxton has launched a snitch line to gather reports of supposed violations of Texas' transphobic bathroom policing law. Please do not abuse this snitch line. Please do not fill it with faff and nonsense. Please do not attach huge, unwieldy and irrelevant documentation to any reports.

Wow just catching up to torch 2.0. This is just freaking jax now! I love it.

Probably a long shot but does anyone on here have a good contact info for Thomas Wildenberg, an independent historian who has written extensively on Billy Mitchell and naval aviation? Would be grateful for any leads on how I can track him down!
