Pete Hegseth just ordered Cyber Command to stand down in Russian planning. The arguments it incentivizes a halt to war, taken in stride with the Machiavellian display in the White House in Russia’s favor, really suggests Hegseth is not acting in the United States’ best interest .

Spring 10U baseball is starting up! Got a great seat. It’s a great age because they’re getting more physical and skilled. The real drawback is the occasional projecting parent, which really isn’t too bad. At least in Texas, flag football was wayyyy worse.

I just finished #thelastarchitect series by Adrian Tchaikovsky. It was stupendous. I picked it up as a random Reddit recommendation for Sci-Fi and couldn’t put it down. Well-developed, well-imagined. Team Olli, all the way. @aptshadow.bsky.social

the "esc" key on a keyboard is a holdover from early-'90s personal computers. on some models it would make the floppy drive start clicking out insults in Morse code about your mom.

Meet the destroyer HMS Glowworm. In April 1940 she was forced to fight the German Heavy Cruiser Admiral Hipper, ten times her size, and Hipper's destroyer escorts.
