No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

Lots to like about Fallout season 2, but ultimately it didn't reach a satisfying ending point like season 1 did. But I still enjoyed it.

Adam Jensen has lots of songs with long titles but my favorite might be "I Can Hold a Grudge Like Nobody's Business." "Julie's Been Working for the Drug Squad" by the Clash I like better, and also "If the Gov't Could Read my Mind" by the Vandals, but those are one word less.
"Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again" immediately came to mind
Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.
Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?
Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)

Wrapped up Outer Worlds 2 yesterday, and had a lot of fun with it. About 45 hours and I did almost everything except some of the longer gathering quests, which I appreciate. Just a nice story and decent gameplay that wraps up before it gets stale.

in further music news, the band Caviar, who I only knew from the 2000 summer jam Tangerine Speedo, is making woke (complimentary) bangers nowadays. Gonna have to go back and check out more from them!

Holy shit! If you are still on Spotify, get the fuck off asap.
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

Will the Bears win a game they've led for less than two minutes? Why wouldn't they?

Probably better to start aviding Boar's Head anything, given their string of contamination issues that's been happening since 2024.
Here are the brands and sizes recalled 👇🏻
this is a serious recall. please check your fridge if you buy these brands.
