So, the actual winner of the Nobel Peace prize has to call the guy who thinks he should have won the Nobel Peace Prize to ask him to not murder her on her way to accept the Nobel Peace Prize. Have I got that right?

This is amazing. If it could unlock a more efficient way to make concrete, it would go a long way to helped climate crisis. About 8% of the trapped CO2 comes from manufacturing of modern concrete, which requires a ton of fuel to heat to 1500 degrees.
This is very exciting news, not only because it's cool and interesting and could represent a major leap forward for modern construction technology, but also because it opens the door to a brutalism revival www.scientificamerican.com/article/pomp...

You can argue that CF teams should avoid playing the extra champ game to get into playoffs. Or that the system should be changed. But you cannot argue that the Alabama team that showed up today deserves to play for a national champ

once again expressing my strong support for Kash Patel being allowed to fly private planes to his girlfriend's concerts and go to sporting events and generally do anything other than his actual job, really the best case scenario for a Trump Guy running the FBI
This has been shared via a bunch of sites. It is worth noting that the report, relying on anonymous internal sources, seems to be coming from the right (complaints about ongoing Trump Derangement Syndrome, lack of Fox News, welcoming end of DEI).
