Been without a phone for a month or so. At first annoying. Then kind of nice. Then super annoying. Everything needs 2 factor identification. Then kind of nice again. I don't miss doomscrolling. I feel isolated and liberated at the same time, but mostly miss friends, Music and having a camera.

Trump posted an AI video of himself as a King in a warplane dropping thousands of gallons of liquid shit on peaceful protesters. Thank god he didn't wear a beige suit though, THAT would be unpresidential.

Apparently, the Goodall episode of Famous Last Words was just the first. They've recorded others; they haven't revealed who, but say that the subjects are people in their 90s. Here's hoping Buzz Aldrin recorded one.

it's rather reassuring in a world of endless flux to see that Dave Chappelle is still a piece of shit.

The champions of Free Speech are telling us which words we can use.
The Department of Energy has now banned the following words and phrases:

climate change, green, decarbonization, energy transition, clean energy, emissions, sustainability, tax breaks, carbon footprint.

This is dystopian and should terrify anyone paying attention.
