When Stanford IT staff and a pro-diversity group shared a list of words they encouraged others not to use, it was national news, despite the fact it never represented campus policy. When the government erases any mention, data or research related to words, will it be treated as a free speech issue?

This has all the hallmarks of a hostile takeover. Entire departments getting axed, with little thought given to critical functions, public safety or national security. Musk did it to Twitter. It glitched often. It was survivable. Glitches to the FAA, DOJ, FBI, CIA? Less survivable. Much less.

Up to 23.5hrs on the Heart Nebula. Also, I've been playing with a 300mm lens, and... it's kind of hard not cutting Sherman's legs. I'm slowly getting a feel for this lens, so I'm sure I learn to leave Sherman's legs in frame. Eventually.

Sometimes I legitimately can't tell if Susan Collins is acting in true bad faith or is just incredibly stupid. Like, I assume she's always acting in bad faith, but every now and then she'll come out with something where I'm like, wait, is she just really really dumb?
