When this man is your president that sends a very clear message to people in other countries.
An Edward Gorey drawing showing a morose looking black bird on a branch. He (and this feels very much like a he) is pointing downwards with one scraggly wing, and looking straight ahead with debt-filled eyes. His beak is long and sharp, like winter on the Great Plains. He is pointing with his right wing, but this means he is pointing to your left. Your wicked, sinister side. This is no accident. The Bird makes no such mistakes. But he is talking, and the text tells us that he is saying, "Beware of this and that." Honestly, you feel his message in your bones.
Some days I just feel like this Edward Gorey bird gets it.

I’m watching the Canada vs Norway Curling match from the Paralympics. A curling match with the USA team is happening at the same time - gosh their fans are noisy and obnoxious.
ok this is at least very funny
anyone who has been on social media for the last 15 years has ptsd for this exact thing when the charts start to buck and the smart weirdos start to flail and vaguely gesture like this
holy shit
love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region
No rehearsals, show up and take everyone to school, leave

Working on a q&a lecture for a class today: The story of robots is always a story about slavery. The story of LLMs labeled as AI is a story about class, and which humans pay the cost, including the physical toll on their bodies/minds, and the lack of water and electricity, so data centers can exist.
A year long investigation into the Hyperloop found …
“The truth was far simpler, far dumber, and far more prescient: Musk and his lieutenants truly had no idea what they were doing.”

“…by ignoring the spirit if not the letter of the Geneva Conventions, the U.S.* is endangering the lives of service members in this and subsequent conflicts.”

i tell you what i keep being surprised when research on something like "who invented mayonnaise?" is an insane and complicated multicountry Saga but like of course it is

Today I want to talk about Jess’ Rule and Martha’s Rule, two new initiatives across NHS England that I think are really important and you should know about.
Tl;dr: if your symptoms are not improving or getting worse, at home or in hospital, you have the right and Drs the responsibility to review.
If Dolly were to give a press conference and announce she has a surprise, and then tear off her human skin to reveal herself as Trogdora the Burninator, about half of Bluesky (Yr Hmbl Crrspd't included) would immediately swear fealty to her and join whatever crusade she was leading.
i kinda think we should let them cook. america can't be the world's police if they run outta guns
Baudrillard: totally exonerated, no wrong doing
Here’s me in the Guardian today.
The Aukus submarine pact has dragged Australia into the Trump administration’s illegal war on Iran in all but name. This was all entirely forseeable.
A brown penguin chick of some kind. It looks very much like a man in a suit. It is bedraggled and miserable
