good work guys you picked a fight in which Dems can stand up out of their permanent defensive crouch and go “our guy is a fucking astronaut and you’re an alcoholic tv host”
Gallego to Hegseth: "You will never ever be half the man that Sen. Kelly is. You, sir, are a coward. And the fact that you are following this order from the president shows how big of a coward you are. I can't wait until you are no longer the secretary of defense."

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

After upgrading my controller with TMR sticks, it felt only natural to look into Hall Effect keyboard switches.

What a cool concept. This is more of what I want from the future of tech.
A motorcycle ... with an electric motor, so it never needs fuel ... and two foldable solar panels, so it can recharge while parked, thus needing no outlet.
Effectively infinite range. Total freedom.

This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousands—if not more—is immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.

Put Solo in last and put Phantom at #5 and this would be correct.
Well, hm, I'd also put Attack and Revenge above Last Jedi or Force Awakens.

haven’t seen ROS or Solo but this seems like a pretty ball-knowing list from Pritzker, particularly if he volunteered the name “Star Wars” rather than “A New Hope”

I wrote a book about US media’s complicity in the Gaza genocide. It's available for pre-order. It’s a data-driven and, I hope, thorough account of how center-left media sold the American public on mass death in Gaza.

Cross Blitz 1.0 is finally out!
We've been working on this for over 6 years. An absolutely exhaustive undertaking. I learned a lot during its development, and I'm a much stronger artist and writer because of it.
I hope its characters and world resonate with people, if even just a little.

This is comedy, but it's actually a fantastic representation of how somebody can end up in a delusional spiral.
I do not believe ChatGPT can trigger this in someone who isn't already vulnerable to it. However, people are usually unaware of that vulnerability before their first break with reality.
