I've started a Youtube channel for uploading my mixes; I'll still post to Soundcloud as well. I'm going to be posting one old mix per week until Youtube catches up to Soundcloud, then I'll post to both simultaneously.

While Zillow is removing its climate risk data from public view, the first truly open climate risk database.

Kudos, @carbonplan.org
Today we’re launching Open Climate Risk, a fully open option for U.S. building-level climate risk data. It’s unique because it allows you to see not only risk scores, starting with wildfire, but also the complete underlying dataset, methods, and codebase. carbonplan.org/research/cli...

A year ago, we were on the cusp of turning many cancers into chronic rather than terminal diseases through immunotherapy and mRNA vaccines. Today, we're working through the curative qualities of a magical horse paste instead.

Bovino sent this email at 3:11 p.m. on Oct. 4.

This is what the scene looked like at 2:48 p.m. when the first group of feds made their exit. They gassed people again at 3:27 p.m.

So during this attack, Bovino congratulated his guy who kicked everything off by shooting a woman five times.

No, no. It's fine that residuals are dying. I've got a new constant stream of small checks: class action settlements from companies that failed to keep my personal data safe.

To explain: When you come in from out of state to represent someone, you have to get a local counsel to sponsor you in "Pro Hac Vice." That's what Abbe Lowell et al are doing for Don Lemon.

The guy who is sponsoring them in is the lead prosecutor who quit bc Pam Bondi is so corrupt.
Look at who is PHVing Abbe Lowell and team into MN to represent Don Lemon.

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.
US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists.

That's 2%! www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...
