"How about we give the cars erectile dysfunction? Screw it, let’s make it a common cultural practice in the Cars universe for them to eat their vehicle-placentas after a forty-month gestation period."

People are going to say this is militarization of the police but it’s worse than that. Militarization would imply they also took on the professional ethos, discipline, dedication to training, high education, and sense of purpose from the military. But they just took the weapons and gear.

Themed trash cans are 100% the thing which differential Disney Park from from your run-of-the-mill amusement park. So what does it mean that so many today are unthemed?

Had a really rough week so I’m trying to live this. How am I going to dig out of this hole? I don’t know, but I’m focusing on doing one good thing today, and then another, and another.

Long-term trends in first leaf and first bloom dates across the U.S. are responding to long-term changes in temperatures. However, the trend across the Southeast may be surprising to some. Find out why: climate.gov/news-feature...

This is what Trump’s mass deportations look like. Iranian Christians seeking asylum being handcuffed by masked ICE agents in front of their pastor.

Spoke with Alejandro Barranco, Marine and son of Narciso, detained doing his landscaping job at an Orange County IHOP. Told me dad is "a kind person, hard working... a patriot. Loves this country. He always taught us the same thing. Just to love our country and always give back."

Tonight’s lesson from rowing. What’s the best way to unload a trailer post-regatta? I don’t know. The best approach? Just do something. People are so afraid to do the wrong thing that they stand there doing nothing, frozen. No, just take action. Adjust. Take more action. And again. And again.

Here's a map of all the public lands in Washington state that Republicans want to put up for sale by passing their Big Ugly bill.  Make sure everyone sees this & send the message that public lands belong in public hands.  Check out the map yourself: outdooralliance.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant...

I'd argue the figures that we should be evaluating C v F on are actually 20 & 25, which make way more intuitive sense than 68 & 77. These are the target temps engineers aim for when we design a comfortable indoor space.

Why am I so unimpressed by these strikes? Israel and the US have failed to target significant elements of Iran's nuclear materials and production infrastructure. RISING LION and MIDNIGHT HAMMER are tactically brilliant, but may turn out to be strategic failures. 🧵 1/17

KTLA - Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all US Marines, pepper-sprayed and punched in the face by alleged federal immigration officers while he was working as a landscaper at an IHOP. He was then forced into the back of an unmarked car in Santa Ana.

Rewatched terminator 2 last night. Fun movie about AI leading to nuclear war and how the easiest way to kill someone is to dress up like a cop. Can't say its themes resonate today.

Bronze in four events at my first regionals. (one based on heat times because of a weather cancellation). Satisfactory results after a +20 yr break from rowing.

14 years ago, while working at CENTCOM, I was asked to do a comparative analysis of the British failure at the Dardanelles to a potential Iranian closure of the Strait of Hormuz. While my discussion of Iran’s capabilities is now outdated, the lessons I identified are still quite relevant (🧵) 1/n
