I think the left should really be thinking very seriously about how to prepare for and fortify against the waves of irregular but effectively state-sanctioned political violence that is probably coming down the pike

Dear World,

Don’t visit us unless you absolutely have to.

This is a dreadful situation.

We’re all embarrassed and disgusted.

Sincerely,

Decent Americans

to keep my sanity though this bullshit going on politically, I've spent a better part of the last month resurrecting and rebuilding this Wanhao Duplicator 6 3D Printer from 2015. this thing was never intended to move much beyond 40mm/s now it's doing 120mm/s + printing.

Red states-pay attention, because you’ll get hit hardest!

They’re gutting NOAA to privatize weather forecasting. Knowledge is power—forecasting is knowledge.

Fossil fuel execs rake in billions while the planet chokes—folks keep guzzling gas & won’t notice the climate crisis while the world burns.

my last 48 to 72 hours. I will not get on an airplane/helicopter, even if my life depends on it, I'm fearing for my children more now than at any time in the last 17 years, and I had an anxiety attack last night after almost 15 years of not having one. fuck all this...

wife and I were discussing Canadian flag day today and thought to ourselves, ad an act of defiance/civil disobedience and solidarity with our northern neighbors we should fly the Canadian flag on US flag day instead of the stars and stripes.

This picture is one I'm still most proud of. I took it in May of 2008 with a Canon PowerShot S3 IS.

Again... DOGE is not an official government agency and yet, they are putting people on leave and getting into government systems... This is a Coup plain and simple, and congress is compromised.

It's almost as if we've been warned about this. That there have been movies made about just such a move. Allowing AI to control any part of the Nuclear Arsenal is just a bad idea period.

But I guess people really want #skynet 🤦

wanna help? my 16yo sons journalism/yearbook department in his high school is trying to raise money to buy more cameras. unfortunately the Memphis/Shelby County school system is severely underfunded so they don't have the budget to do this at the school level. popup.doublegood.com/s/5192outn

alright #3dprinting folks time for me to ask for help. with the potential impending tariffs on China come mid January. I'm looking for US filament manufacturers who are making cheap (12 - 17 bucks US per 1kg roll) consistent filament. also looking for the same for nozzles.

Can I just point out that more museums should be sensory friendly? We were visiting family in Bentonville/Rogers Arkansas and decided to visit the Amazeum yesterday and they had a map showing the different levels and types of possible sensory issues throughout and even provided ear muffs for folks!
