Top caption reads: Taken nearly 58 years apart, these images capture Earth on the moon's horizon across two eras of lunar exploration. Below are side by side images: on the left, the new Earthset image produced by the Artemis II mission and on the right, the iconic Earthrise image captured during the Apollo 8 mission in 1968.
Nearly 58 years later and Earth is still just as beautiful.
This is really all they have left. "We have a pointless and criminal war pushing gas prices through the roof and the global economy to the brink but at least the government isn't treating trans people like they're human beings" will be the entirety of the midterm message.
Israel struck my home town of Ain Saadeh just now
I've built a free open-source intelligence dashboard tracking every coordinated inauthentic behaviour (CIB) operation Meta has disclosed since 2018. 214 operations. 53 origin countries. $22.7M in ad spend. 71 reports analysed. Access it here! marcowenjones.substack.com/p/i-created-... #disinfo
8 million No Kings protesters
Zero police officers beaten
Zero police officers killed
Zero feces smeared on walls.
You gotta be daft to try this kind of prank on kamaʻāina
Old white man identified as John Waters, wearing a red and black checkered shirt, holds up a cardboard sign at today's No Kings Protest. The sign reads: Trump Ruined Bad Taste.
John Waters with a "Trump Ruined Bad Taste" sign just might be the best protest photo of all time.
SCOOP— Trump wants a 24k gold coin w/ his face on it for America 250, but an official at a late February coin advisory committee meeting called it something only done by "nations ruled by kings or dictators." After NYT reported the criticism, US Mint yanked online vid of the meeting w/o explanation.
meta is shutting down its lame VR universe, and Alex Jones has just announced that infowars is shutting down
Bad day for alternate universes
Don't need to tell this to any fellow Knowledge Fight listeners but this isn't the end of Alex Jones' terror campaign on America. Infowars (the brand) will likely be shutting down very soon but he has already set up new business models to keep his shit-spewing on air.
The Nature study on LLMs' "emergent misalignment" this year shouldn't have surprised me—but it was still jarring.Turns out teaching a model to cut ethical corners in one domain causes it to cut corners everywhere. Introducing Part 1 of Godwin's Ethic. mikegodwin.substack.com/p/from-a-law...
So I made a song for Peter Hegseth (lyrics in alt-text) x
This is not me below beware @support.bsky.team
Department of Homeland Security leaders removed top privacy officers who objected to mislabeling government records to block their public release, WIRED has learned.
Oh nice. So your PC had enough memory already so you did not need to buy any additional accessories.
Ah the heady days of the Nintendo 64. I'm right with you on that Daniel, loved every second of those times.
I analyzed the Proud Boys donor list. The most common occupation was real estate (realtor, mortgage broker) — the same parasitic class that was over-represented among Jan 6th rioters.
Why is it I now cannot read, or hear the word Chinamaxxing. Without it being automatically in the voice of the current POTUS. Thus making it Gynamaxxing 😏 I guess my brain is fully cooked, oh dear 🤷
I seriously doubt this represents that Big Shoe Ed Sullivan always promised us…🙄

I think every historian of the First World War should be sending a 'thank you' to @cjapieters.bsky.social at the moment for moving the mailing list of @fwwsoc.bsky.social in a direction it's desperately needed to for years. Finally we're having the long-awaited 'insects & the war' discussion.
De Telegraaf, the Netherlands’ largest newspaper, recently published an interview with a woman promoting €1,600 seats on private evacuation flights from Dubai. Bellingcat found that her image was likely AI-generated, and flight data suggests no such plane took off. www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/03...
Bless this reporter! Trump didn’t call him piggy, he just shat his pants.
We are aware of recent reports regarding targeted phishing attacks that have resulted in account takeovers of some Signal users, including government officials and journalists. We take this very seriously. 1/7
Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.
Glad to hear Jello is ok. He’s a real one. Will never forget when he gave me a ride across SF in his clunker of a car. The back seat was full of random stuff he had trash picked. I know singers of bands who couldn’t sell out my living room with more hubris. Good dude www.punknews.org/article/8775...
