At this point, if a Democratic presidential candidate wants my vote, their platform has to - at bare minimum - include some version of "I am going to put all these freaks in prison for their crimes." Full stop. No compromise. I am now a single issue voter for the dark woke prison camps.

We need to join the ICC and remove the Invade The Hague law so we can see these people get justice in the future. This is insane.

Is there a setting somewhere to change the “mute” video button so that it just mutes the video and doesn’t stop it too?

Sergeant Colon was lost in admiration. He’d seen people bluff on a bad hand, but he’d never seen anyone bluff with no cards.

This is called Universal Design, where something is designed technically to help people with disabilities but ends up helping a whole bunch of other people too.
Curb cuts is perhaps the most famous example of this - it's for people in wheelchairs, but everyone uses them.

This is great. I think the whole idea of accommodation should rightly be an invitation to reject an ableist, eugenicist approach to the world and instead ask "What if we want to give *everyone* the chance to do their best?"

Wrote strange a story for @sciam.bsky.social about where on Earth you'd put a time capsule if you wanted to find it as far in future as possible. Maybe bury a laser-etched zircon in Namibia and hope it erodes out of central mountain range of Pangaea Ultima? www.scientificamerican.com/article/can-...
Could a Time Capsule Outlast Plate Tectonics?
A ridiculous but instructive thought experiment involving deep time, plate tectonics, erosion and the slow death of the sun
