Just here to scream into the void. Sometimes I make things. She/her. Pagan witch. Autistic w/ a double scoop of C-PTSD.
I just heard from my mechanic that there are chunks of broken things inside the cylinders, which means total engine replacement, which starts at like $10k for this engine.

But a 2012 Nissan Juke is valued at less than half that.

I guess I am car shopping instead of Yule shopping. =(

If every Muslim voter in Dearborn voted for Harris, she still would have lost Michigan.

If she had won Michigan, she STILL WOULD HAVE LOST THE ELECTION.

If you want to blame voters for current conditions, feel free to blame the actual demographic responsible for Trump and that is WHITE PEOPLE.

If the pitch to the artist was "make the lyrics to Depeche Mode's 'Everything Counts' into a physical object," they nailed it.

“They can’t win if they don’t cheat,” said Kansas Representative Sharice Davids. Her district in fast-growing Johnson County, which was already gerrymandered in 2022, is in the crosshairs again and could be shattered in half and stretched all the way to the Colorado border. trib.al/Wn2Rb73
MAGA’s State-by-State Plot to Butcher Democracy
Political insiders, GOP legislators and governors, the president, even the Supreme Court—they’re all in on the flagrantly unconstitutional conspiracy to destroy democracy by the way they draw lines on a map.

There's no evidence Trump has ever driven a damn car.

He has never mowed a lawn.

He has never shoveled a walk.

He has never changed a lightbulb.

He has never washed dishes.

He has said he never ever changed a diaper and he has four children.
something you have to understand about Trump & his weird comments about the economy is that the dude hasn't paid for anything like a normal person in decades - never pumps gas, never buys groceries - so he's completely & utterly out of touch with what life is like for most of us

Wait wait wait that new David movie is being made by a splinter group of excommunicated Mormons? The "Sound of Freedom" people? Oh, I bet there is going to be some *wild* historical and theological revisionism and the discourse is going to be feral.

Holy CRAP.

Retired engineer takes random pics of *kids*, without consent or attribution, bins them into “autistic” or “not autistic”, and uploads that “data” for free on Kaggle.

Well over a HUNDRED papers are published, 38 in Springer Nature, 25 in IEEE, using it.

And no reviewers objected? WTF.🧪
Springer Nature retracts, removes nearly 40 publications
The dataset contains images of children’s faces downloaded from websites about autism, which sparked concerns at Springer Nature about consent and reliability.

Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.

One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.

When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?
It's over.

Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.
