Predictably Dugin has gone full Revelations and a pivot to evil deeds of Trump and Israel in preparation of throwing them overboard to install Vance or whoever is chosen to go old school nazi against Jews and to finish off American democracy hopes. Not saying it’ll work but it’s all playing out.

I guess we have our answer to what the US military will do under the orders of a pedo-fascist regime.

This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trump’s presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.

Yes. And we have to talk about this now, because talking about it is the first step to making it seem like a callous crime rather than a surprising emergency.

If Timothee Chalamet wants to make being a reverse-snob part of his deal, whatever. Be a child, you know?

But at a time when arts funding and support are so imperiled, it would be nice not to lead with your contempt for wide swaths of the arts during your campaign to have your own art recognized.

I was just informed by a fellow faculty member that if I don’t start incorporating AI into my research I’ll never get a grant again.

So Philip Glass just joined TikTok. He only has like 4 posts and they’re simply him in what I assume is his living room playing the piano. First comment on one I saw was “your piano is too close to the fireplace, you’ll dry it out” and if that’s not the internet in a nutshell I don’t know what is.

Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces, officials say — The Washington Post The targeting information has included the locations of American warships and aircraft in the Middle East, the officials said.

Not quite sure what it will take for MAGA to see Putin as an enemy.

Nature Report, Killed by Trump, Is Released Independently

Scientists and other experts were preparing an assessment of the health of nature in the US when Trump returned to the White House. He canceled the report. The researchers went ahead and compiled it on their own. This week, they released a 868-p draft for public comment and scientific review.

In fact, more so than any war in my memory, it seems as if you wanted to pretend this war wasn’t happening it would be very easy to do so.

We have all been paying the Greg Abbott Corruption Tax for 12 years too long.

It's simple: We pay more, and we get less, all so Abbott can do favors for his billionaire friends.

So long as we have a governor who can be bought, we won't have a Texas we deserve.

Partial matching of names in #rstats is wild. I knew the function would run, but didn't know it "works" with dataframes as well!
