Maybe I worry a, bout handing out funding to the wrong actors when no funding will actually be handed out.

As others have observed, public libraries would never be created in modern times.

The deaths upset me.

I wonder how much longer comments like "I just cannot begin to imagine how such an event can occur," said Shreveport Police Chief Wayne Smith, will be seen as acceptable in a country with poor mental health supports, no social safety net, poor education, weak gun laws...

I agree, but worry that the right wing would use their expertise, flooding social media with their toxic spew, to suck dry a publicly funded broadcasting fund. How do we avoid enabling the toxic actors? Obviously, there is a market for the toxic content.

1/3 The Steady State letter could not be clearer: crime-reporting obligations “are not optional disclosures… They are legal duties imposed by statute and executive order,” and apply when employees witness, discover, or receive credible information of possible crimes.

I understand very little of that figure, but I enjoy the inclusion of the "Human KMN junction," which has a similar structure. It's a big family tree; the reunions are a big, big, big picnic.

Oh, bleep off. Go outside and smile at another human being. The “Ministry of Negativity” is real and needs to be ignored. The sun still shines and they cannot do a damn thing about it.

We kept copies of our files in Azure so we could mount them. Synced from AWS. Extra effort and expense. We did benefit from a more user-friendly organization and naming of the files....

Two military generals were sentenced to death at Nuremberg for following and issuing illegal orders from their crazy Commander-in-Chief.

They were convicted of

Conspiracy to wage aggressive war
 
Crimes against peace
 
War crimes

Crimes against humanity

Trump has shifted the baseline so far that our 2015 selves wouldn't recognize it.

Children in detention. Pedophiles protected. Pardons granted. Measles. Kidnapping foreign leaders. Accepting gifts and bribes. Tearing down the East Wing. Renaming geography.

I think what I find even funnier is so many of the "calm down" people don't realize that maybe freaking the country out is a good way to get him gone. You're tired of low info voters deciding the future of the country? Me too! Maybe tell them what's really on the table and they'll take it seriously

More and more, it feels like a GOP war on Iran rather than just a distraction from the Epstein files or Trump's impulsive behavior unleashed.

Showering Has a Dark, Violent History In the 19th century, cold rinses and days-long baths became a way to treat—and control—psychiatric patients.

Today I Learned (TIL) that showers were first used on the "insane" and imprisoned. Though many died from the ice-cold water. Warmer water was a later improvement.

Yesterday's publication of the Module 3 Report of the Covid Inquiry completely vindicates Green Party policy on:

I don't think his morals about Israel are worthy. He could have stuck to the "Trump promised no wars" but instead brought out his racist views.

We generally agree. The war is bad. I just won't give guys like this the benefit of being "moral" because agrees with my opinion. He's immoral.

Much later in the article, he isn't quoted as the source

"It goes to show that many of the president’s closest supporters believed his campaign pledge of no new wars, and aren’t willing to give Trump the benefit of the doubt over Iran."

Racists are still racists even when they agree that 2+2=4.

Worthy moral impulse?

Alt Text from Claude because I barely understand the graphs.

This is a three-panel figure showing climate data spanning the last 3 million years (x-axis: time in million years before present, running right to left from 0 to 3).
Top panel — δ¹⁸O (‰): This shows benthic oxygen isotope ratios, a proxy for global ice volume and deep ocean temperature. The black line is observational data and the blue line is model output. The y-axis is inverted — up means warmer/less ice, down means colder/more ice. A key feature highlighted by the gray shading is the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (roughly 1.2–0.7 million years ago), where glacial cycles shifted from ~40,000-year periodicity to the larger-amplitude ~100,000-year cycles that characterize recent ice ages. The model tracks observations reasonably well across this entire span.
Middle panel — Atmospheric CO₂ (ppm): The pink line shows a CO₂ reconstruction (likely from ice cores for the recent portion and proxy-based estimates further back). The various black symbols represent individual proxy measurements from different studies. There's a long-term declining trend from ~300–350 ppm around 3 million years ago down to the 180–280 ppm glacial-interglacial range of the last ~800,000 years. The red square at the far right marks today's value of ~410 ppm — dramatically above anything in this 3-million-year record.
Bottom panel — ΔT (°C): Global temperature anomaly relative to preindustrial. The green traces show temperature swinging between roughly +2°C during warm interglacials and -6°C during deep glacials. Again, the red square marks the current anomaly of about +1°C, which is already near the warm end of the natural interglacial range but arrived far more abruptly.
The big takeaway: The figure contextualizes modern CO₂ and temperature against deep geological time, showing that current CO₂ levels are unprecedented in at least 3 million years and that the recent rise is essentially instantaneous on this timescale.

I appreciate their addressing Breitbart's misrepresentation of their results. Past variations don't explain away the warming effects of higher atmospheric CO2.
