I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.
if a major politician held an emergency rally about the current ongoing coup by the richest man in the world, I think people would go to it. Shit is well and truly fucked. I can think of a couple of people who should do that right now.
Sorry, Mexico and Canada, we elected a dimwitted shitheel
I posted something sincere to focus on the grieving families and send peace and strength during an extremely difficult time and the amount of grief I am getting from that is exhausting,,, people lost their lives and I just want to respect and send love to all the victims and friends and family.
What a nightmare. The crashed plane is reported to be an air ambulance—and multiple homes and cars are said to be on fire on the ground. (This is in NE Philly, near the Roosevelt Mall.)
BREAKING: At least 6 people killed in Philadelphia plane crash, including 2 pilots, 2 doctors and a patient - FOX29

just start saying this plainly to more people i'm serious.
The constitution quite clearly gives Congress the power of the purse, a power the Executive branch is pretending it now has. Or did you not pay attention at all in school?
What do you suppose they are talking about?
sorry if I'm being a little annoying about violations to the constitution, but damn it feels weird to be on the side making a fuss about that
There has never been a better time to open a crappy amusement park where the rides kill people
Ladies and gentlemen… , my co-host on the podcast. 💥💥💥
Tarlov: When you talk about staffing issues, sure, the control room is a problem, but you know what else is a problem? That there is no head of the FAA. Elon Musk has been trying to push him out… And they have in the first week in office gutted this key aviation safety advisory committee. 🎥: 1/2
Prequel haters in ruins now that Revenge of the Sith is one of the most prescient films of all time

This is a significant change. The DCA corridor feels harrowing due to all those helicopters as anyone taking planes from the airport knows.

Researchers found 14 of the 20 amino acids essential for life on Earth in samples from the ancient asteroid Bennu. Dr. Danny Glavin and Dr. Dante Lauretta join us to discuss the samples and what they mean for the search for life beyond Earth.
The 16th has finished. We had a total of 1,796 entries from devs over the last 14 days. I hope you learned something and had fun. Judges will begin the process of reviewing everything and we should have our winners on February 14th! itch.io/jam/pirate
I should really update the logo. The U-matic videotape of a telecine of an old internal training film I always copy it from is getting worn out.

Some folks going deep into the Mark Flitman papers on his work on WWF games!
A lot of interesting preliminary information and ideas for WWF Raw, along with recordings wrestlers did for Rage in the Cage! The GamePro scans have also let me add to my Dreamcast review data, and I tested out the search feature by finding everything I could for Virtuoso. Great library so far!
I'm not really the "tutorial guy" on YouTube. I have 3 total, 1 per year. I wanted to give it another go - but I wanted something different. Less copy paste, more introspective on my dev process. Never done anything like this before. Just released it for free with no ads on YT
Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽
i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve
It's Pritzker and AOC who get it so far. Who else?
🏆 Governor Pritzker- Illinois - has signed an order prohibiting all J6 rioters from state employment.

They are expanding their McCarthyite war on diversity to include people with disabilities, and doing it very clearly. Should someone in a wheelchair be able to work for the FAA? I think an overwhelming majority of Americans would say "of course" but that's not what we're hearing from Trump.
Republicans want you to hit your kids instead of giving them health care
Senator Tommy Tuberville: We have an attention deficit problem in this country. Attention deficit — when you or I were growing up — our parents didn’t use a drug they used a belt.

Incredible comment in yesterday's episode on housing affordability even worse. All around the country, construction workers will be migrating to California for the post-fire rebuilding efforts, which will make new development even harder.

I’m sick in bed with a nasty cold and could use a new book to read. I’d love to hear your time travel book recommendations. I’ll start with a few of mine: the Accidental Time Machine, Timeline, 11/22/63 are my favorites. Whatchu got?
