Submitting a likeness video to Google sounds like a perfect way for them to build up a business where they can identify you in any photo that’s been placed online ever.

In snowstorms, you can’t see them. This is because the headlights have little shelves in front of them which fill with snow resulting in the light getting blocked. Saw this last winter with the two cybertrucks in town.

So first Florida ignores climate change and hardening for it and helps make home insurance unaffordable for Floridians. How much you want to bet that in a few years Florida leads the nation with the most expensive Health Insurance costs?

Kids are going to die. Needlessly. Because some other kid's parents are listening to these people. It's monstrous.

Some people thought he was going to release the Epstein files or drain the swamp. Face it, "some people" are completely clueless.

The proper response to these women who can’t share a bathroom with a trans-woman is go find another bathroom yourself. That’s actually legally the suggestion in Washington state!

The face is vaguely familiar. You can pretty much guarantee the ones screaming the loudest with anti-LGBTQ hate are either pedos or closeted. Sadly, he was hurting kids instead of just having self-hatred.

Donald Trump’s personal lawyer is about to offer Maxwell Ghislaine a pardon if she agrees to lie about Trump’s association with Jeffrey Epstein. Here’s why that’s bad news for Democrats.

We’ve apparently discovered our third interstellar comet/asteroid barreling through the solar system and I keep thinking “The Ramans do everything in threes.”

(No, I don’t believe these are artificial objects, just an amusing thought to me is all)

A new interstellar comet has been spotted by Atlas & catalogued as A11pl3Z with MPC id 2024 RB22.

This data viz shows we'll lose the best parts of its orbit to the Sun & it gets no closer to the Sun than Mars' orbit, BUT AN INTERSTELLAR COMET is coming in!

neofixer.arizona.edu/css-orbit-vi...

The Comet A11pl3Z's orbit is plotted in teal overlaid on the solar system. It is the lightest of arc and almost appears to go straight through the solar system. It is closest to the Sun near Mars Orbit (shown in Red) and Mars and Venus will have a good view at that point, but Earth will be trying to look through the Sun.

The best part is when President Lewis wrote back to RAISE to tell them he would sing Hound Dog, he signed it SKEETCH, which was the student’s nickname for him.
