As a former professional graphic and product designer, these proposed #Montana signs are all horrible. The last looks like there’s a dead cow with its feet in the air. As a current map app developer and cartographer, the heavily simplified state outline is ridiculous.

The X platform now has a new tool that promotes scrutiny about the origin of X accounts.
I've noticed lately that more trolls are invading Bsky. This same feature that X has so members can check an account's country of origin would be super helpful to weed out the bad guys from causing harm here.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

I’m guessing Benz won’t sell it with burn-to-death electronic doors either.
I don't see how Tesla's Model 3 can survive if Benz can offer an alternative EV this cheap, with this kind of performance, on top of the 15% tariff that it's charged in the US.
Imagine what this model does to Tesla in Europe, where Benz pays no tariffs.

“You know the best way to bring your inflation rate down?” Mr. Bessent said. “Move from a blue state to a red state.” Aside from moving costs and a new mortgage at 6.23%, that might work if you move to Oklahoma. Montana has some of the highest housing costs in the US and lowest wages.

Apparently it’s a crime to remind military members to follow the law and refuse illegal orders (something that it is ingrained in basic) and the pentagon can recall you into the service to discipline you. However, the pentagon will not prosecute you for dodging the draft five times.

It’s interesting to me that the president thinks the highest insult to women is to call us ugly
As if pretty is the highest compliment
He knows no women who prioritize intelligence, strength, humor, creativity, kindness, persistence, ferocity, leadership, etc

It is a travesty that we have elected people and their representatives that actively undermine everything America should stand for.
The audio leak of Steve Witkoff advising the Russian side what to do, what to say and how to progress is nothing more but collaboration with Moscow, probably even more. It further confirms what I was writing on Sunday when the US Senators were actively rejected this.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Most people hear “heat pump” and think of small air-source units at home. But Germany is building one of the world’s largest heat pumps in Mannheim: a 162 MW river-source system using heat from the Rhine.
Big reminder that heat-pumps scale far beyond households — they can decarbonise whole cities.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.
