Pete Hegseth just ordered Cyber Command to stand down in Russian planning.

The arguments it incentivizes a halt to war, taken in stride with the Machiavellian display in the White House in Russia’s favor, really suggests Hegseth is not acting in the United States’ best interest .

Spring 10U baseball is starting up! Got a great seat. It’s a great age because they’re getting more physical and skilled. The real drawback is the occasional projecting parent, which really isn’t too bad. At least in Texas, flag football was wayyyy worse.

Jan 6 must be fully & conclusively adjudicated in a court of law if this country is to ever move forward.

They can't just wish it away unless we let them.
Though the Justice Dept has deleted information about its Jan 6 prosecutions from its website, a federal judge has issued an order listing and chronicling all of the cases and prison terms

Megamind is a cinematic masterpiece. Don’t care how long it took me to watch it. Master. Piece.

I just finished #thelastarchitect series by Adrian Tchaikovsky. It was stupendous. I picked it up as a random Reddit recommendation for Sci-Fi and couldn’t put it down. Well-developed, well-imagined. Team Olli, all the way. @aptshadow.bsky.social

the "esc" key on a keyboard is a holdover from early-'90s personal computers. on some models it would make the floppy drive start clicking out insults in Morse code about your mom. They put it in the corner to avoid the shame. I hit it at gma’s. Gpa’s railroad training kicked in and I got grounded.

Meet the destroyer HMS Glowworm. In April 1940 she was forced to fight the German Heavy Cruiser Admiral Hipper, ten times her size, and Hipper's destroyer escorts.

Her extraordinary last stand earned her captain the first Victoria Cross of WW2. In part because THE GERMANS nominated him for one /1 🧵

My therapist last week described coping with stress and ADHD like this:

It’s like you’re wandering around in a fog, and to escape the fog, you feel like you have to move fast toward anything that might be a way out, only to find that it wasn’t the way out, and move on to the next.

I felt seen.
