No one is ever going to trust us again. Gravely immoral, and gravely damaging to our national security.

In 1966, the NY Mattachine Society walked into Julius Bar and announced they were gay — a deliberate civil rights action to challenge laws that criminalized serving alcohol to queer people. They won. Our visibility has always been an act of courage. #QueerHistory #LGBTQHistory

Republicans betray our allies add Trump sides with our enemies. Who would ever help us, or side with us? The United States is untrustworthy.

Republicans: let's blame the president who hasn't been president for a decade, instead of the crazy old man in the White House.

If they can't blame Obama or Biden, they've got nothing. They can't defend Trump, so they point and attack some squirrels.

Critics of new bill say Ohio women would be banned from sports bras, bikinis in public 'The peak of fear mongering.'

Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill.

HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.

They Funded a Castle So Racists Could Meet in Secret. Now a Judge Wants Their Names. The legal python around VDARE’s neck just got a little tighter.

New: Peter and Lydia Brimelow of VDARE face discovery in the lawsuit issued by the NY AG.

This could expose the names of white nationalist donors and activists who’ve stayed in the shadows for years:

Recently started biking for real, and holy f-ck - the cars.

I swear to absolute fucking God. The cars man. I've never in my 30+ year life seen so many stupid fucking idiots in traffic. Blind motherfuckers. They are making my blood boil.

  
Today someone decided it was a great time to make a U-turn in the middle of the street. I kept distance but the car was jerking and was indecisive and just stopped forcing me to go right on the curb making me fall head over the handle bar and crash. Not a care in the world the driver just looked at me and drove off.

  
Never in my life have I seen so many stupid people that can't drive. And I've had a drivers license for over 20 years soon.

A common thread among newer cyclists is realizing just how awful drivers are. There are things you simply don't notice — behavior that has been normalized — when you mostly drive. Biking, walking, or rolling through the world changes that.

"Philip K. Dick first came up with the idea for his novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" in 1962, when researching "The Man in the High Castle", which deals with the Nazis conquering the planet in the 1940s. Dick had been granted access to archived World War II Gestapo documents in the University of California at Berkley, and had come across diaries written by S.S. men stationed in Poland, which he found almost unreadable in their casual cruelty and lack of human empathy. One sentence in particular troubled him: "We are kept awake at night by the cries of starving children." Dick was so horrified by this sentence that he reasoned there was obviously something wrong with the man who wrote it. This led him to hypothesize that Nazism in general was a defective group mind, a mind so emotionally flawed that the word human could not be applied to them. Their lack of empathy was so pronounced that Dick reasoned they couldn't be referred to as human beings, even though their outward appearance seemed to indicate that they were human. The novel sprang from this. And, interestingly enough, it is now thought that some people are "Occupational Psychopaths" due to low-functioning amygdala, the fear centers of the brain's limbic system.

Was reading up on the film "Blade Runner" on iMDB, and this popped up in the trivia section. Am I the only one who sees a parallel in the attitude of the quote from the S.S. man, and modern Republicans removing funding for school lunch programs?

Key evidence disappears from Tesla involved in bizarre crash The network card that stores and transmits crash data to Tesla's servers was physically removed from a Tesla Model Y involved in a violent 90 km/h crash in Bergen, Norway.

you might be surprised by how often Tesla's data recording systems randomly break, fail to function properly, go missing, or are otherwise mysteriously unable to perform their functions precisely when they are needed most

then again, you might not be surprised at all

What a week to be giving a lecture at Fort Ticonderoga on the Canadian campaign during the American Revolution, which was doomed by an outbreak of smallpox and mixed messaging on whether not soldiers should inoculate.
