Two years ago, Earth was hit by the most energetic neutrino in history. Scientists thought it might be a measurement error, but a new study has confirmed this “ghost particle” was real.

Em dashes, like anything, should be used in moderation. Check first with your editor if em dashes are right for you. 😉

being an American citizen who can vote is like being responsible for a fully automatic weapon in a big glass case; it's not enough to abstain from its use, you need to actively prevent misuse, because there's a giant gun there in a glass case and people want to use it, and tell you so.

lol pulling another sign out is king shit. 1 king after all
Trump supporters surround, scream, and chant at a lone protester. When one man rips his sign out of his hands he opens his backpack and pulls out another.
Law enforcement and event security did nothing but watch and later told him that if things escalated he would be removed.

Gavin Newsom went on TV, called Tom Homan a bitch, and said he if he wanted arrest him he knew where to find him. Maxine Waters told an ICE agent to his if they planned to shoot her they should at least shoot straight.

Right now, Dems are hiding in their offices, scrolling their phones fearfully, wondering "how are voters going to feel about the National Guard being deployed?"
The right, meanwhile, is vigorously *attempting to shape* how voters feel about it, filling every medium with coordinated propaganda.

This is in the house reconciliation bill. It will kill trans folk who need gender affirming care to live and rely on Medicaid.
I see nothing in this administration that wouldn't expand this attitude to anti depressants or ADHD medication, both of which I need to function.

There’s a lot going on but the situation with the Library of Congress should be a 5-alarm fire in the House and the Senate
The baseless firing of the Librarian of Congress and illegitimate removal of the Copyright Office Director is an assault on Congressional authority and independence.
I've asked the Library of Congress Inspector General to investigate potential improper access to confidential congressional data.

BREAKING: DOGE is starting to put together a team to migrate the SSA's computer systems entirely off one of its oldest programming languages in a matter of months, potentially putting the integrity of the system—and the benefits on which tens of millions of Americans rely—at risk.
DOGE Plans to Rebuild SSA Codebase In Months, Risking Benefits and System Collapse
Social Security systems contain tens of millions of lines of code written in COBOL, an archaic programming language. Safely rewriting that code would take years—DOGE wants it done in months.

Congrats to The Residence for being the first murder mystery show to make me cry in the finale. It's delightfully authentic with local shots - Silver Spring, MARC, and MetroBus! - but it eventually reveals itself to be a love letter to American values and tradition, as imperfect as they are.
