I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

I'm sorry but it's just wild we are in the middle of a government shutdown and the House Republicans are REFUSING TO SHOW UP FOR WORK so they can protect billionaire pedophiles and billionaire tax breaks.

I started Heartworm tonight, and I’m enjoying it quite a bit. @adinolfi.bsky.social absolutely NAILED the environment design.

It runs like a charm on my Steam Deck too!

A woman standing on a dirt road with a yellow car against a smashed gate. There are trees and a smoke plume in the background and all around.

A giant building in purple fog exists in the background. A woman stands on a floating stone bridge.

A woman’s silhouette is seen in light coming from below the floorboards.

A woman standing in front of a door on a staircase that is seemingly not connected to anything

There are now one or two of Elon Musk's Starlink satellites falling back to Earth every single day.

According to Smithsonian astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell, that figure is only going to keep climbing.

The Serfs (youtube.com/theserfstv) @theserfstv.bsky.social · 2d

Losing my mind and what look like video game assets but instead were used to justify war crimes and genocide in the real world

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites

The style is unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war.Our analysis of 43 official IDF videos found recycled 3D environments, spatial inaccuracies, and assets lifted from unrelated artists and institutions.We traced over 30 unique assets to Washington-based 3D creator Ian Hubert, who makes bespoke models created for his sci-fi project Dynamo Dream, available to his Patreon subscribers.

Models of parking lots, antennas, + pipes were repurposed as Hamas and Iranian military sites

Fascinating work here tracing how the IDF recycled 3D assets from a cyberpunk sci-fi art project, the Scottish Maritime Museum and elsewhere to populate its widely-seen models of supposed enemy locations in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. One of the most infamous, the alleged underground Hamas command center at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, used to justify an unprecedented assault on the biggest medical center in Gaza, was actually an animation the IDF had used the previous year, saying at the time it was a tunnel beneath a UN school.

Lol. Because I’m of the same age of a lot of these cretins, I have came up with an elaborate set of events that got us here.

But I was leaning more toward:

The kids who haven’t grown out of the G.I. Joe phase. They can’t let go that Cobra Commander is not real.
