We're gonna need a truth and reconciliation commission and Nuremberg style trials to reckon with all of this evil, and any Dem candidate for office who shies away from a full reckoning in the name of "moving forward as a nation" can get well and truly fucked
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

Hello, computer.
Leonard Nimoy's Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (aka The One With the Whales!) was released 39 years ago today.
One of the most popular Trek films, the Whale Movie is indeed one of my fav. Fresh, funny, with a fine environmental message, it completes an overall successful trilogy.

Enormously fun article by @sajeevmehta.bsky.social on asymmetry in car design.
As commenters noted, at length, Sajeev left out a couple of fairly well-known designs ... both American, as it turned out.
WITHOUT reading the comments, read through his piece + see if you can ID them. Go.
