You should have listened to me about galaxy growth and structure formation. But now, there are way more important things to worry about.

When we needed a new doorbell my husband did a lot of research to find *any* door camera that didn’t upload video to a cloud/server. The only one he found was Eufy. Thus far, it’s been fantastic.

Since tomorrow is the memorial service I thought I would resurface this as I—and a bunch of others—are deep in the feels.

Here's what another person online wrote about my dear, dear friend about 15 yrs ago.

Democracy dies in darkness.

Every journalist raising their hands subsequent to that outburst from Leavitt should be asking the same question as the reporter being traduced.

#Journalism
Reporter: Renee Good was shot in the head and killed by an ICE Agent.

Leavitt: Why was she killed?

Reporter: Because an ICE agent acted recklessly and killed her unjustifiably

Leavitt: You’re a left-wing hack. You’re not a reporter.

Part Infinity of No Astronomical Meetings Should Be Held That Involve Travel, Domestic or Otherwise
It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.
ICE agents to begin checking documents at MSP airport, patrol jet bridges - Minneapolis / St. Paul Business Journal
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents will begin checking documents of travelers and workers at MSP airport, with patrols inside jet bridges.

The 6-month-old that DHS is tweeting about here lived in the neighborhood and the baby’s father was just trying to evacuate his family after federal agents had shot someone.

Schumer as a major American metro is being brutally occupied by Trump goons: "The affordability crisis will be our focus throughout 2026 because that's what the American people are demanding"

This isn't even an opposition party message.

The White House "says" it's tackling affordability by getting rid of 100M people.

Opposition isn't "you haven't made things affordable yet" it's "what the fuck you fucking nazis"

very real thread for all the doomers
the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

A thing that is just a constant annoyance to me is that a huge theme of The Western Canon is welcoming strangers into your home.

Like, the entire Odyssey is just a series of dudes telling Odysseus and Telemachus "I am obligated to feed and shelter you for three days before you tell me who you are."
“Psychologically Western.” In the Gilded Age, America’s elite embraced the pseudoscience of eugenics to justify their own sense of superiority and provide backing for racist and anti-immigrant policies. Pretty rich for Musk and his internet-broken brain to be judging the psyches of others.

You can't make this shit up. ICE recruitment used AI tools to sort applicants based on experience with law enforcement but fucked it up by including everyone who used the word "officer" in their application as "law enforcement officers"... who didn't require training.

What could go wrong?

US higher education was a crown jewel, generating knowledge, wealth, prestige, and power unrivaled by anyone.

And the US is throwing it away, because Americans elected a govt ideologically opposed to truth, science, merit, and racial/gender equality, preferring to weaken the country to reduce that.

This leads me to believe that up until this meeting, Trump absolutely thought it was "hole milk."

The ICE entrance exam asks about this exact scenario:

You are on your way to a bad hombre and you send 6 kids to the hospital. Is this:
(a) Zero Kavanaugh Stops because you didn't arrest anyone
(b) A single Kavanaugh Stop because it was one car
(c) Seven Kavanaugh Stops, otherwise known as "Bingo"
Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.
That is what was relayed
