What's old is new again. In Mein Kampf, Hitler refers approvingly to how America became “great” through conquest and racial exclusion.

Is Avatar: Fire and Ash good? It's got Hideo Kojima's seal of approval which should suffice as an answer. #avatarfireandash

Finally, #NASA has a decent administrator. Hopefully he can make something of what's left of it. #space #spaceflight

Sharing cus, yeah....
I don't have much to say, and honestly for personal reasons no not want to have to think of this person; but he has been doing this for 10 years now and has committed plagiarism in every major pice of artwork he's done within that time. This also extends to his writings.
it appears plagiorizer William Toosey tries his shit again, that's my Propalorchestes in his "Journey through the Cenozoic".
I suspect this is just the tip of it. Many of these are just other people's work with a new texture slapped on top.
Lots of JRC art here.

Why do browser extension developers do this?? Have they no sense of moral responsibility or ethics? 😕 #webdev

As Hanukkah begins, I’m thinking of the victims of the horrific attack in Sydney. The Jewish community has always been resilient, but this shows we all must continue standing together against antisemitism.

Gabby and I hope everyone celebrating Hanukkah can find peace and light.

it's actually worse. not only are AI aggregators (including Musk's lobotomized Grok) spreading this myth, it's entirely based upon an 'article' written by AI originally posted by a website with an Icelandic ISP

When the system others you, it becomes tempting to other the system. Inequality may very well be the root of all this instability we're seeing.

Slowly coming to the conclusion that part of the reason many Americans have embraced anti-science and anti-vaccine beliefs is that healthcare is so expensive. So there is an attractiveness to the idea of being able to opt out of the healthcare system by eating healthy, consuming supplements and detoxing.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Google Sans Flex is even better than Calibri IMHO. It's my current favorite; a beautifully spaced, rounded sans-serif typeface that feels futuristic and accessible.

Times New Roman is for old farts.

Calibri Vs TNR

FIGHT!

FR, the US govt is fussing over fucking fonts 😂 fwiw I think the Biden administration did a good job switching to Calibri...

Rubio orders return to Times New Roman font over 'wasteful' Calibri #fonts #typography

Today in 1989, the Space Shuttle Atlantis launched the Galileo spacecraft, the first orbiter and entry probe at a giant planet. When I watch it recede from the shuttle, I can't help but want to scream to open the antenna first (it never opened). They were still able to salvage an amazing mission.
