unless and until republicans agree to a ceasefire in the form of strict anti-gerrymandering provisions: fuck them to hell, squeeze every last drop of blood from the stone, lock them out of every seat you can
There's actually a fun story behind this: the guy who was NYC superintendent of school buildings from 1891 to 1923 was an architect who believed in holistic learning, and wanted to inspire kids to rise out of poverty by giving them a sense of the possibility of granduer through construction.
NEW PODCAST: Electricity is just 20% of global energy. The other 80% (heating, transport, industry) still runs on fossil fuels. Full electrification could cut total energy demand in half. More in my conversation with @bobbyllew.bsky.social of Everything Electric Show

Between Iraq and a Kharg place.
Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.
this is just a warmed over david duke speech from 1990

Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded.

the president of the united states is personally looting the treasury to the tune of literally billions of dollars and that he is not being immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes against this country is a devastating indictment of every part of our political system
Heat pump orders up 2x in a month. Solar panel inquiries up 250%. EV leases up 85%.
The Iran crisis has made energy security feel personal.
I understand why: I have solar panels, a heat pump & EV on a flexible tariff. When gas prices spike, my bills barely move.

it’s weird how “having a job that isn’t actively evil” now feels like a genuine luxury
Imagine being so unpopular and evil that you have to drop this amount of money and invent new forms of ratfucking so you can beat a 27-year-old who regularly wears a Snorlax onesie to bed.
This infographic, "MOFs: What are they good for?", defines Metal-Organic Frameworks as crystalline "molecular sponges" made of metal ions and organic linkers. It details four commercial applications: carbon capture using zinc-based CALF-20, safer gas storage for semiconductor manufacturing, harvesting atmospheric water in deserts using aluminum-based MOF-303, and the detoxification of chemical warfare agents. It notes that MOF research won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
Researchers working on Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The latest edition of #PeriodicGraphics in @cenmag.bsky.social looks at applications of MOFs, including water harvesting, gas storage, and more: cen.acs.org/materials/me...

Starting to think that this pope is weak on heresy.
AOC: Whether it’s people in the Epstein files still roaming free, or the president, a known rapist, continuing to occupy the White House, all of this has contributed to the normalization and the idea that incidents of harassment shouldn’t matter.
And I think today was an important turning point
The nonprofit that runs the successful, Pulitzer-winning Baltimore Banner is going to take over the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Of all the possible outcomes here, this is likely the best we could have hoped for.

Now, you might say, "What about all the knowledge we'd lose if we push all the abusive geniuses out of academia?!"
But I'd counter and say, "Well, what about the knowledge we've already lost from the budding scholars whose careers they've derailed with their abuse?"
NEW—I got an exclusive excerpt from a USAID whistleblower's new book that made me gasp multiple times. It details Trump's dismantling of the humanitarian aid agency & his team/DOGE's shocking ignorance to public health.
'Into the Wood Chipper' by Nicholas Enrich is out tomorrow. Read excerpt here:

For more than a week, Amazon has managed to keep a death at its Troutdale, Oregon, facility out of public view.
Workers I spoke to are pissed.
