I remember when the Brits did Brexit I was like Jesus they really just tanked their whole economy rather than be even slightly less racist, at least we haven’t gone that far yet! haha, anyway

I don't really know how to shout this from the rooftops any louder: If this actually happens, it would spell the end of U.S. numerical weather prediction--the scientific models, run on supercomputers, used to create virtually all weather forecasts. www.axios.com/2025/0...

There's been so much publicity about the now-Oscar-winning doc No Other Land being unable to find a U.S. distributor (which is appalling) that some people may not realize it's currently on 100 screens here. In Manhattan you can see it at Film Forum; in Brooklyn it's at Alamo Drafthouse.

Cities should invest in public spaces are third places. We need many more public spaces to live out loud. This is a failure of city planning as much as anything else is to blame, as these are the things planners should be advocating for. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/b...

Having out of town guests over. We were going to make them a meal, as has been the custom in virtually every culture in human history, but I think instead we'll berate them, criticize their clothing choices, and demand they thank us for everything.

"In the 1980s, as mass homelessness surged... the Reagan admin. made a concerted effort to shape public perception... Federal funding for research on homelessness was steered almost exclusively toward studies that emphasized mental illness and addiction, diverting attention from structural forces."

Do not let ANYONE you know go without knowing about this. This is going to be critical to mobilizing resistance among people currently on the fence. Play them the audio, if you can. EVERYONE needs to KNOW.

Okay, nerds, buckle in! It's time for some SCIENCE. Back in the late 1960s, a scientist got some government funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Atomic Energy Commission to look for interesting bacteria living in extreme environments. 1/x

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

It’s just wealth transfer from the government to Trump’s buddies. Crypto needs a liquidity pool of real money. The government is going to give the crypto market real cash, and all the people who bought crypto will be able to cash out for U.S. dollars. It’s 100% just theft of government money.

Some of you may be old enough to remember November 2024, when a presidential campaign that started out gangbusters and with intense energy was forced by "centrists" to rein it in and look like Republicans. I do. We lost the WH, the House, and the Senate. www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

@mcfaulmike.bsky.social: “Trump, Vance & others either have forgotten or never knew that Zelensky signed a ceasefire agreement with Putin in 2019. Three years later, Putin launched his full-scale invasion. So, signing another ceasefire with no security guarantees feels like suicide for Ukrainians.”

“It’s certainly unusual for any case to involve two diff U.S. attorney offices declining a case for lack of probable cause and to have the Dep't of Justice continue to shop it. That’s very unusual. And cert'ly it would be unusual to continue to shop it after a judge turned it down.” Bove 'n' Martin!

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help
