Today in 1628 the Vasa, the latest, most powerful and advanced ship in the Swedish navy set off on its maiden voyage.
After travelling about 1,300m it capsized and sank.
It was raised after 333 years on the seabed.
Today @thevasamuseum is one of my favourite places in the world.

This is what democracy looks like.
JUST NOW: A committee that would’ve heard the Lamberth bill to keep undocumented kids out of schools was disrupted as the entire audience recited the pledge of allegiance until they adjourned and moved to a locked room🤨

It’s absurd. This is absurd.
We’re gonna need some judges to step in here to help keep us safe as Musk gutted the FAA just like he did Twitter, but Twitter wasn’t carrying human beings!!!

Donald Trump has reportedly spent an estimated $10.7 million worth of taxpayer money to play golf since his inauguration.

This is happening as Head Start programs have struggled to access previously approved federal funding due to the Trump admin's illegal impoundment.

You cannot be a good journalist without knowing History. Different beats absolutely require different kinds and depths of history. And you can acquire that knowledge of history without studying it in college, because books. But you can’t do journalism without history.

The GOP’s economic plan is simple: distract, divide, and deflect. Can’t afford rent? Here’s a book ban. Grocery prices too high? Let’s talk about drag queens. Wages stagnating? Have you considered blaming immigrants? It’s not a platform—it’s a con, and we’re all paying the price.

“Why do I need NOAA? I’ve got a weather app.”

Is equivalent to asking

“Why do I need farms? I can go to the supermarket.”

Exactly this.

Just 2% of Musk's wealth could feed the very poorest and most desperate people in the world.

He could use his money to do extraordinary things - and could go down in history as a hero.

Instead he has deliberately chosen to be an evil, villainous dick
Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad.

There’s not.
