One thing I'm seeing proposed more and more as a prophylaxis against another Trump is to ban felons from holding public office.
And this might be an unpopular opinion, but I *hate* that plan.
Here's why.
BREAKING: Maryland is about to become the first state in the nation to ban the use of surveillance data and dynamic pricing at grocery stores.
The Maryland House has just passed the Protection from Predatory Pricing Act.
Governor Wes Moore plans to sign the bill.
Heating oil prices are sky-rocketing around the world.
The Nordics have understood the risks of using fossil fuels for heating early on and transitioned away from heating oil almost entirely whilst phasing in heat pumps.
That’s right!!! And thanks to everyone in Seattle who showed up for a sneak peek of what’s next 💕
one day you walked out of Blockbuster for the very last time and you never even knew it
It's migration season! Monarch butterflies travel over 4,000 km to winter in Mexico's stunning oyamel forests. Witness the beauty of nature's incredible journey.

Every time I see he's cast in a movie I instantly want to check it out purely to see what voice he uses. Doesn't hurt that he's a great actor as well.
There's something just so brilliant about coal mines being directly replaced with solar farms

Top image with Jerry saying, "You're crying because of Artemis II?" Bottom image with George saying, "The spirit of space travel got to me." Jerry then says, "Alright."
To those still complaining about Artemis 2:
We spend 100× more on killing people for oil profits, but yeah, NASA’s the problem. 🤦🏽♀️
NASA: $25B
Defense: $901B
That’s 36 NASAs.
Space programs have driven major advancements in science, medicine, and technology, real benefits for humanity.

If any taxpayer money goes toward the development of anything (i.e. medication, treatment, technology, etc.), then it should be considered a public utility with the cost to the consumer adjusted to take into account the public's investment.
one thing i will say as a general statement to all coaches of all teams at all levels: if you’re going to credit god for a win, i wanna see you out there after a loss being like “yeah, god fucked us over today, really let us down out there”
NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA
An image of the entire Earth, with Northern Africa and the North Pole visible at the lower left. It looks like daytime but it is actually illuminated by moonlight. There’s a bright arc along the lower right where the sun is coming through from behind. There’s a bright dot on the lower right (Venus) and a glow (zodiacal light). A few stars can be seen in the dark beyond the Earth.

I've had stories brewing in my mind for literal years. For one reason or another I keep putting them off. Books, movies, games. I have an entire interconnected universe with thousands of years of history written or planned out, and when I finally decide to start writing it's like I forgot how to.
