Our archivist found this real, paid-for, pretty rad Mr. Beef ad in the April 2004 edition of The Onion.

I’ve been running around asking tech execs and academics if language was the same as intelligence for over a year now - and, well, it isn’t. @benjaminjriley.bsky.social explains how the bubble is built on ignoring cutting-edge research into the science of thought www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

Yeah the Hobbits big virtue is that they're indomitable. They aren't wise or clever or strong, but that turns out to be less important than the will to pick up and carry your friend to the end of the world

This is the most gloriously nerdy thing I've heard in a long time:

My daughter's chem class is celebrating guaca-mole day today, because guaca-mole is made with avogadros.

#iykyk
Happy Mole Day to all who celebrate.

They smashed his window, peppered sprayed him & dragged him to the floor.

Listen to his wife & sister here, distraught. No-one will tell them where he is.

An absolute bargain.
All military aid from the U.S. to Ukraine from 2014-2024 has cost the U.S. tax payer $19.94 per person per year.

In return they got to destroy Russia’s entire Soviet equipment inheritance and still complain it is a bad deal

1,160 allied personnel died defending the USA in Afghanistan.

318 allied personnel died defending the USA in Iraq.

Many more were wounded and/or left with persistent trauma.
Trump on NATO: "If the United States was in trouble and we called them. We said, 'We got a problem, France.' Do you think they're gonna come and protect us? Hmm. They're supposed to. I'm not so sure." (Literally the only time NATO Article 5 was invoked was after 9/11 on behalf of the US.)

Latest NASA global temperature data.
Earth has never been hotter since Homo sapiens (we) discovered agriculture in the early Holocene. Likely even since the Eemian interglacial 120.000 years ago.
Fossil coal, oil and gas emissions caused it.
We need to stop making it worse.
We can if we want to.

It is absolutely poisonous that the right wing continues to make faithfully doing your job a risk to your life. I felt it as a library worker, every teacher I know feels it, doctors, journalists, now the damn weather reporters who are mostly known for keeping people safe and dad jokes.
“Ignorance is becoming socially acceptable.”

Meteorologists talk of death threats from the army of crazed conspiracy theorists who believe the government can control the weather.

day after Ireland passed the hat she was like "wtf?" She thought it was a hack or an error or something because she kept seeing all these donations from Ireland, and eventually backed into someone posting it on Twitter and the entire country of Ireland repaying favor to the tune of millions.
