Minneapolis, MN -
US Rep. Ilhan Omar was just sprayed by an unknown substance during a town hall meeting in North Minneapolis. Despite some telling her she needed to change, she continued to speak to the crowd.

The way this Apple II rooftop cityscape draws itself in and then sweeps across the screen is very pleasing to the eye.
The traffic and skyscraper lights twinkling away very much build some lovely atmosphere and look lovely in their own right.

With most psychedelic drugs, you never know what you're going to get. But this mysterious mushroom from China - without fail - causes users to hallucinate tiny people: crawling up walls, popping out from under furniture and marching under doors. www.bbc.com/future/artic...

UPDATE: We may see the first time English is displaced as the most popular language among Bluesky posters as soon as Americans head to sleep tonight.
Japanese users were close to achieving that feat at 7 am Eastern Time, and their activity is increasing at an exponential pace. This is remarkable.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.
His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."
He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.

When we were walking out of the theater one of the displays showed an employee coding showings in real-time and seeing the backend and email list of a movie theater was pretty interesting. I'm a nerd so I watched and took pictures, I don't think they knew it was showing in the lobby.
