California folks: if you have a Prop 50 mail-in ballot but haven't mailed it in yet, do it today. Please. I am begging you. It's literally the only question on the ballot and it'll take you like 30 seconds to fill out. Redistricting only happens if enough people vote for it by next Tuesday. #yeson50
California folks, for the love of all the gods and goddesses you revere, MAIL IN YOUR PROP 50 BALLOT TODAY. It's really easy: there's only one question! I recommend you vote YES on 50, then mail the ballot in, no postage required. #yeson50

In this election, the people have two separate but equally important choices: a city they can afford or the billionaire-backed politics of the past.

Our new ad just aired during Law & Order.

The entire point of good reporting or good scholarship is to tell us something we didn’t already know and the idea that they could ever be replaced by AI tools that rely on scraping the internet database of what we *do* know is just ludicrous.
it really is both insanely inaccurate and also wildly offensive to assume that scientists and reporters can be readily replaced with passive sensors
This is what popped into my head immediately upon reading that, like, okay, so all those field scientists... we can just replace them with Waymos, got it, can't wait to see how a Waymo creeps through a bush for 7 weeks just to take a photograph of a bird that nobody has ever photographed before

My friend Nina writes RWRB fanfic and you should read everything she writes bc she is fantastic.

That’s all.
alex is hungover. worse than that, alex is hungover at the gym.

and worse than even *that* is, alex forgot his protein shake, the ice machine has just stopped working, and that *guy*, the one with the shoulders so wide he looks stupid, has monopolized alex's favorite rowing machine. again.

Tucked away in the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' is the requirement that all visitors to the US must pay $250 just to enter the country starting 1 October! For a family of 5 that's $1250! I doubt this will help America's crashing tourism business which is down 10% already since January

My fave thing about the LotR end credits is just how many minutes are taken up by listing every single member of the official Lord of the Rings fanclub. It's SO many names. SO many minutes. Just goes on...and on... and on...

ADHD is having a thousand things to start, continue, or finish at any given time, and still having thoughts like, "what if I started a twitch channel?"
