People thought Osama had an entire mountain hollowed out that he was using as his base and that's why AQ was hard to find and that somehow a group of like 30 dudes arranged this.

good to see new orleans's big train station finally get more than 4.86 trains a day. next step is six trains daily to baton rouge!
Amtrak's restored service between New Orleans and Mobile has far exceeded initial ridership projections since launch in August, just like what happened when the Borealis service was established between Chicago and St. Paul last year.

Amtrak is currently expecting to double the first-year estimates.
Gulf Coast train line is among the most successful in Amtrak’s history. See ridership totals.
The route’s early success has raised hope for some advocates of regional train travel. See how many people have taken the train since its launch in August.

I love HBO's Florida Man. Whoever thought "What if we did Drunk History but instead of history it's just quirked up white boys in Florida" was a genius.

Some of the best things about America are the ADA, the IDEA, the first amendment (i know it's lame, but I like it), and birthright citizenship. Those are some of the only laws we have that are better than a lot of our peer nations

I learned about this because my rideshare driver met Trump at the ground breaking because she lives around the corner. Apparently he called her his new neighbor. That said this is all in Spanish and my Spanish is terrible lol.

An internal list of military targets? Naming everyone on board, fulfilling wartime rules of engagement, ready in time for a covert boat trip, but requiring 40 minutes to justify a second strike?

May we see it?
EXCLUSIVE: Pete Hegseth ordered the U.S. military on Sept. 2 to kill all 11 people on a suspected drug-smuggling boat because they were on an internal list of military targets, the commander overseeing the operation told lawmakers, according to multiple sources.
Admiral told lawmakers everyone on alleged drug boat was on a list of military targets
Adm. Frank Bradley said U.S. intelligence had identified the 11 people on the boat and determined the military was authorized to kill them as part of Trump’s campaign against alleged drug-smuggling vessels.

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.

BREAKING: ‘This hurts’: UNL eliminates 4 programs despite faculty, student pleas
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln eliminates the Earth and atmospheric sciences 8-0, educational administration 7-1, statistics 7-1, textiles, merchandising and fashion design 7-1 programs.

I have a friend who notoriously invites WAY TOO MANY people to everything. A group of us convinced him to keep his holiday party smaller this year, and then for a combination of flakiness and understandable reasons half the people RSVPd did not show, reinforcing his worst instincts now forever.

In South Minneapolis, Minnesota, nearly two dozen neighbors confronted and surrounded ICE goons after rapid-response alerts were issued. The goons were questioning an East African man when the situation escalated, and they eventually left the area without making any arrests.

I'm not sure it's in the self interest of America's tech bro billionaires to suggest that we bring back public executions to punish the most destructive people in our society.
A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings.

“It's time to bring back masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable,” writes Joe Lonsdale.

This is where Silicon Valley authoritarianism is heading:

I do a decent amount of local community work irt public transit, and the median bus rider is like 25 years older than the median driver in our city.

I'm also lost on someone who doesn't realize most people who reach 90 yo are relatively wealthy.
Buddy, I have bad news for you about how many 90yos should be driving

It takes the @nytimes.com 2,800 words before they mention that the group chat featured someone using explicit neo-Nazi slang. The folk involved have been connected to far-right groups for years now.
