Sorry AJ but I fear Howie is the only one left who an broker a deal

One hopes images like this, when paired with the knowledge that everything we burn ends up in that tiny slice of gasses, would help contextualize why we need to move away from energy sources we set on fire. One hopes. Climate communicators should make some hay of this.

We have to stop pretending the problem is anything else. The problem is Trump. The solution is getting rid of Trump. We cannot effectively prosecute a war or achieve peace while Trump is in place, because he will abandon one in favor of the other every 12 hours in pursuit of narcissistic supply

OH. MY. GOD. THIS IS THE MILKY WAY SHOT BY THE ARTEMIS II CREW. LOOK AT ALL THOSE STARS!!!!

The famous Andor line is that "tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle." Here is a perfect example of that through malicious compliance: Idaho forced the city of Boise to remove its Pride flags. So the city painted rainbows everywhere else.

Both @wellthats.bsky.social and I are traveling for work this week so Tico gets to hang with his favorite dog sitter.

Very excited for my dr to ask me “how’s your stress level” next week, and I — as has been my wont — will go, “ha! Ha ha ha ha! Ha HA!” Like I am lazslo cravensworth

I can guess.

Look, managing stress is helpful when we're talking about about life stuff that's actually manageable. Not nearly hourly horrors and living under the constant threat of a regime that wants everyone dead. There's no real way to "manage" this level of stress because it's unrelieved trauma.

Yeah so he is just going to keep doing the thing where we are in a constant state of uncertainty, confusion, stress, and tension because that is what abusive people do and the people who are in a position to address this are asleep at the switch.

You know what? I'll admit it. The credible threat by a madman to wipe out a nation of 90 million people for basically no reason (presumably using nuclear weapons) successfully distracted me. I am now distracted.

It’s gorgeous in Atlanta today and I needed to stop doomscrolling for 20 minutes. This place seems important.

sucks that all of the attention right now is on something extremely bad instead of the coolest thing that has happened in my entire life

Well, well, well. Despite all of the tiresome culture war noise, She-Hulk in fact became one of the MCU's best performing shows. Gooooo figure.

Obviously not a substitute for Congress doing its job, but now would be a good time for Clinton, W, Obama, and Biden to say something jointly.

I paid $20 for a three day metro pass in Milan that got me to all the Olympic venues.

Yeah, well it's not so great down here either, ABC News.

apropos of nothing, if you're visiting Japan i think you have a moral obligation to spend a day learning about the human cost of nuclear war. i visited nearly a decade ago and i've never forgotten my experience hpmmuseum.jp?lang=eng

It Only Tuesday https://theonion.com/it-only-tuesday-1819569397/

Normal Tuesday. Got a few meetings today but not too many. President's threatening to genocide millions of people and there are folks flying around the moon in the fucking sky. Gotta take out the garbage later

I am on my way to the airport to fly to a work conference where I have to present twice tomorrow, and oh yeah, my 78 year old father with Stage IV cancer is also having surgery tomorrow. My brain is experiencing never before seen levels of cognitive dissonance right now.

On the theme of kids of astronauts, this is Maya Glover, the daughter of NASA astronaut Victor Glover and Dionna Glover. Maya is at Cal Poly doing architecture. From her Insta: mayalorinnn.

Earthset from Artemis II. I am overcome.

going to my email job to argue with my supervisor about productivity while wondering if he meant nukes

If I die because of this bullshit, I'm going to be so pissed off.

He's threatening nuclear war with the kind of language they'd use to promote a special episode of Celebrity Apprentice

Just in case folks miss this due to the block

In honor of the Artemis II, enjoy Ernie’s performance of “I Don’t Want To Live On The Moon,” which genuinely may be the best song ever written. youtu.be/kIq8jLj5TzU

The Artemis II mission seems good because it is. People seem excited by it because they are. It looks like a testament to the value of teamwork because it needs many people working together to succeed, and it’s succeeding. One of the best things about this is how straightforward it is. Authentic.

it's everybody's favorite 2 hours of the sports year, when we all wonder why the NCAA men's basketball championship tips off at 9 p.m. Eastern on a Monday night

These people are the best. Science is the best. Humanity could be the best.

Crew is losing contact for 40 min and right before he gives a speech and says "from the moon, we love you, see you on the other side"

Holy wow. Artemis is about to go behind the moon from our POV so that's Earth as it starts to slide behind the moon from the space capsule's POV!

At this stage of the game, it is crystal clear that the internet, as a whole, was a huge mistake. But every now and then, we find incredible uses for it, like this photo gallery of Artemis II pictures. www.flickr.com/photos/nasa2...

or - hear me out - instead of a pocket square, you just don't go

hey, I hear you all, but ballpark food is ALLOWED to be fun. There are still hot dogs and pretzels for traditionalists. Let a bitch have a smothered waffle fry or a crazy milkshake. This is some families' only excuse for a night out.

I cannot think of a single app that’s gotten worse over the course of one year than the MLB app. Trying to listen to the first Rays game at the Trop in 18 months and it’s been 10 minutes of chopped up ads. The game is literally happening! Right now!

Easily the most blasphemous US administration in history.

Everything is terrible, so have some zoomies as a treat. #greyhound

THE NUTELLA HAS COME LOOSE

Reid Wiseman on #Artemis II: "We have Earth out window 4 and Moon out window 3... the Moon is about 3-4 times the size of the Earth and it is almost full, and the Earth is just a small crescent out there... it's magnificent... such a majestic view out here" Mission Control: "Amaze, amaze, amaze!"

Taxes are good, in fact, & Democrats should stop granting Ronald Reagan's bad premise about government: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

What a beautiful moment.

Just absolutely losing it about the Carroll crater. The Artemis crew set the record for the farthest we have ever been from Earth, and in that celestial moment, they chose to be humans. The best of us.

New shot of the Moon taken only a few hours ago by the Artemis II crew! More of the lunar far side coming into view :-D flic.kr/p/2s676GN

1. I know the idea of "norms" went out with Cheers and technically there's no law about presidential medical disclosures, but the White House and its doctors covering up the president's true medical condition ought to be a Watergate-level scandal
