Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

Mamdani got 1000s of people to do a scavenger hunt on a random Sunday and democratic leadership still blames his "lack of a broad coalition" instead of just admitting they're in aipacs pockets

In 2021 Hakeem Jeffries endorsed Eric Adams as his second choice.
Eric Adams won the nomination with 404,513 votes (50.4%) in the final round.
Zohran Mamdani won the nomination with 573,169 votes (56.39%) in the final round.
Seems like a plenty broad electorate to me

Hakeem Jeffries again declines to endorse Zohran Mamdani, saying: "He's going to have to demonstrate to a broader electorate - including in many of the neighborhoods that I represent in Brooklyn - that his ideas can actually be put into reality."

It's great that NASA supports (supported) astrophysics, space science, and other research at NASA, within the US, and across the world and that shouldn't be discounted, but Earth science is far more immediately consequential and important for society as a whole.

NASA’s charter clearly states the agency should study planet Earth, however.

Don't worry guys Sam Altman says we're close to AGI
My goto is to ask LLMs how many states have R in their name. They always fail. GPT 5 included Indiana, Illinois, and Texas in its list. It then asked me if I wanted an alphabetical highlighted map. Sure, why not.

Shocking things happen when you treat humans like humans
Phenomenal news story this and I love how the Mail seems quite supportive of it.

Inmates at HMP Wayland, Norfolk, were taught how to live virtuous, peaceful lives based on resilience, rational thinking and self-discipline.
