Best railcar graffiti I've ever seen

Numbers stations freak me out.

Magical thing how he is dedicated to giving credit to his former writing professor, Rosemary Graham. But genuinely weird that she was also my professor and to know how right he is about how great she is.

I assume this is addressed to Greg Bovino.

Alright, friends: this is my most ambitious YouTube to date. It was a ton of work. I hope you'll watch, share, subscribe! www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxHk...

Just canceled my ChatGPT Pro subscription. And signed up for the Claude Pro one in its place.

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.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

The Grammys. The Olympics. The Super Bowl. The message is that the world loves diversity. Don’t let the billionaires tell you otherwise.

A nerdy thing to focus on but in addition to the Bad Bunny performance being incredible both musically and visually, it was the best halftime performance aurally and sonically, in perfectly mixed Atmos surround sound. Really amazing!

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

One of these days, people will look back on these sports betting ads like we do on the ads for patent medicines featuring cocaine.

that stage of society when school children share the bond of having endured the camps together

In 2016, I created two bands to celebrate the music of David Bowie and Prince. I gathered up my friends, who also happen to be the best musicians I know, and talked them all into this crazy idea. Now we're back and playing at Rickshaw Stop on April 10. wl.eventim.us/event/a-trib...

One rule I had when modding a large group of folk involved in digital rights organising was potential new group members had to have public prior history of speaking up or being involved in digital rights work. Folk who appeared outta nowhere and had their friends demand entry for them? Yeah nah

Today’s $1M idea: someone should give away their Nobel Peace Prize to another person, who in turn gives it to another and so on until every person on earth has “received” the award. When everyone is special then no one is. 🍊🤡

Brief operational term of art 🧵 to help better define what we're experiencing. What we're experiencing is state terror. I've seen a lot of terms thrown around for what the Trump admin is doing w/ICE, CBP, & other federal law enforcement (LE). The now largely out of use term is state terror. 1/

So we’re now 1990 Iraq? Can someone explain a difference to me?

I’ve been wanting to get dad, a former exec-turned-professor (and a noted model railroader), something fun to enjoy in retirement. Today, it finally clicked: He needs a print subscription to @theonion.com Order placed. He’s going to love it!

As gorgeous as the views are, the satisfying sounds might actually be the best part.

The robot's reaction is just too much fun.

Was telling my buddy in Contra Costa County that I'm down to one Cybertruck a month, and he said he's filthy in them. People shouldn't have to live like that.

Andrea Pitzer, who wrote a global history of concentration camps, on why we must call a concentration camp "a concentration camp." One of the most important things I've ever worked on.

“Disinformation is like cocaine – sniff once or twice, it may not change your life. If you use it every day, though, it will make you an addict – a different man.” —Yuri Andropov, former KGB Chairman (1967-1982)

The classic example is "Jesus, Etc.," which only makes sense when I think of it written after 9/11, though it was written in the months before.

Great culture can save lives. Literally. Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

When people are mean to you, remember the universal truth that it comes from their own fears, not from a deficiency in you. So don’t react. Chin up. Wait for the reality of their own internal conflict to take care of it.

The world added 500TwH(!) of solar *last year*. The scale of it is unbelievable, and absolutely wild how little attention it gets.

Amazing that the “barn boogie” rules for my son’s sleepover camp just happen to be the EXACT SAME rules as those I have followed for my own entire personal life.

Maybe it's just me, but the fact that these "robot fight club" robots have the same size and dexterity as elementary school children makes it feel pretty yucky.

I'm cancelling Disney+. I don't need to watch their stupid movies where superheroes and galactic rebels and cartoon cars protect humanity from power-hungry evil maniacs who want to control the planet. Turns out you guys were just pulling our legs. You can Hail Hydra by yourselves. I'm out.

This sounds wacky but it is backed up by science.

Two of my favorite people being intensely human and smart about an overhyped subject. There’s wisdom here. Worth your time.

I’m watching a camera of one of the marinas in Oahu. All the boats are driving out to deeper water. Two people are surfing in the sunset. It’s a chilling image. #hawaii #tsunami

SNACK OR MEAL? WHICH IS IT GONNA BE? YOU CAN’T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS GUYS. ILLEGAL.

A wolverine has been documented in southern Finland for the first time in 80 years. Once persecuted and considered extinct in the south, the species’ reappearance follows years of legal protection and recovery in the north. buff.ly/UJrV1oo #ShareGoodNewsToo

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

This right here is how someone like myself suddenly becomes a stamp collector.

The BBC obtained a mobile phone that was smuggled out of North Korea. The level of control the regime holds over its citizens is shocking but not surprising.

The best idea I've heard so far is to take a fraction of that money and make grants to buy/start local papers in rural areas that mostly report on high school sports and obituaries alongside editorials about how the local gop run government is screwing people over
