For much of human existence someone who could bring 15% of dead people back to life would have been lauded as a miracle worker (and/or vilified as a necromancer, but that's cool too). Yet apparently that's just not good enough for The New Yorker.

“They can bring back 15% of dead people, I think this is a waste of resources”

For anyone showing up to the protests around LA this weekend, please bring supplies. Paper towels, milk, water, snacks, and any extra masks. Wear protective gear like helmets, goggles, full face protection, and heat resistant gloves. The tear gas canisters are hot and will burn

What is the city but the people?

I'm looking for disabled people willing to share about the accessibility of their voting experiences via a brief Zoom or written interview (or any other format that works for you!) for @americanprogress.bsky.social's Disability Justice Initiative. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

the white house thinks brute force is, no pun intended, a trump card. they don’t anticipate pushback and they don’t know how to handle it with anything other than escalation. the issue is that each escalation is itself a gamble. if protesters refuse to back down, you’ve lost face. (1/?)

This may be the lightning capture of the season. Our friend Greg Ansel poses for the "It's never going to happen" shot and this happens. Captured near Stead, New Mexico a short time ago. Watch live via: www.youtube.com/@DanielShawA... @NWSAmarillo #nmwx

Hope other countries are excited for the LA Olympics!

i'm at the games showcase. i'm at the civil unrest. i'm at the combination games showcase and civil unrest.

Oh hey Wholesome Direct is on youtu.be/D4ZRXGcmDlM?...

seems to me the basic error these centrists are making is that they are playing on enemy turf, rather than trying to raise the salience of issues that favor them

One thing I’d say about ranked choice voting in NYC is that you don’t have to do complex calculations of viability. You should rank in order of *who you want to be mayor* and if you *don’t* want someone to be mayor, you shouldn’t rank them!

When Trump encounters a demographic he doesn’t care for, he “disappears” them–in many cases, the very record of their existence. Meet America’s new “missing persons," and the govt campaign to delete statistical evidence of anyone who doesn't fit Trump’s idea of our new golden age. w/ @ashendruk.com

People and media often say Balatro was made by 'one guy'. I feel like that unfortunately may be stoking the flames of this David vs. Goliath narrative a tiny bit No it was not 'one guy', look at the dang in-game credits

hey. my bag with my laptop and a bunch of other gear was stolen yesterday while at the vgbees mixer. i need help replacing my stuff. gofund.me/959ad2c0

It’s incredibly noticeable how often ‘and an army of outsourcers outside America and Western Europe’ is left out of these team sizes. That’s the part I find real uncomfortable.

"It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy” www.wnep.com/article/news...

This box does nothing.

I was really uncomfortable with this as well. And not just because the math doesn’t math. One dev plus nine friends working with him is 10 people… not one. Expedition 33 is a triumph, but it wasn’t made by 30 people. Contractors provided vital labor. This is a dangerous path we’re walking.

Literally everyone predicted the next Mario Kart was going to go the "Super Smash Bros. Kart" angle but that didn't materialize. Mario Kart World doesn't have a single guest character. Sega is doing that with Sonic Racing CrossWorlds.

According to @NintyPrime sources, the Switch 2 sold over 3 million units globally in 24 hours. If true, the Switch 2 had the biggest hardware launch in video game history.

“Weather forecasting is not partisan,” said Representative Mike Flood of Nebraska. He and others from both political parties introduced a bill Friday morning that would make it hard to fire National Weather Service workers. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/06/u...

This has been under the radar, but the Transportation Research Board (TRB) of the National Academies dissolved a lot of their committees recently. On equity, energy, alt fuels, and more. Just gone. The conference is the main transportation conference where our students would present their research.

"Nothing / none" is the second most frequent response. We are not breaking through. If you care about health care (Medicaid,, Medicare, the ACA), if you care about SNAP, if you care about ordinary Americans, this ought to be very alarming.
