Unwisely read the comments on an article about banning pavement parking & there's loads of people saying "I never see disabled people being impeded by pavement parking!"
1. Are you paying attention?
2. People avoid routes they know will be impeded.
3. Inaccessibility discourages mobility aid use.

What could possibly go wrong when feeding classified military info to a kiddie porn machine made by a guy with enormous business interests in China?
U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announced the integration of Elon Musk's xAI platform, Grok, into military networks as part of a new "AI acceleration strategy" during a visit to SpaceX.

This is a really excellent suggestion. There's a whole guitar scene in Mali that's just out of this world and needs to be exposed more. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ out of ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I can also recommend "Ali", but I am very partial to West African musicians...

This seems ridiculous, but it's incredibly insightful and I'm kind of glad that they admit it.

Chat, is it a sign of a good head coach when he has to be physically separated from his star receiver during a playoff game?

If there were ever two Joshes Allen on the field, Tony Romo would immediately have a heart attack and die from the joy.
Joshes Allen like Attorneys General
When you have two Josh Allens in the same game, I believe you call that "Alleni."

I'm not clear: the announcers on this game keep telling me what a legend Josh Allen is. Did he play in/win one or more Super Bowls and I just missed it? Seems like he's got the same number of rings as Trevor Lawrence.

I love Ms. Rachel; she's been a real one since day 1. I'm glad to see the mayor choosing good folks to hang out with.
This morning, Ms. Rachel and I visited District 2 Pre-K Center, where we sang and read with the wonderful students and educators. We also discussed universal childcare - and how we're making it happen for NYC!

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

Please don't print in the newspaper that he's salty about not getting a Nobel Peace Prize.
Trump: "I single-handedly ENDED 8 WARS, and Norway, a NATO Member, foolishly chose not to give me the Noble Peace Prize. But that doesn’t matter! What does matter is that I saved Millions of Lives ... I DOUBT NATO WOULD BE THERE FOR US IF WE REALLY NEEDED THEM."

What if the next book that really blew up on #BookSky was an experimental, unapologetically intellectual, sex positive, biting, funny, genre busting novel by a Black trans woman? We can live in a world where that's possible. Where that happens.
Plastic, Prism, Void: Part One
A magical girl-gone-bad and a renegade mech pilot must stay on a date forever, even if it means destroying the world. Don't you want to help them? "Delicious, insane, intoxicating." --Maya Deane, author of Wrath Goddess Sing "This Is How You Lose the Time War but on crack." --Jace Molloy Acrasia is in the ultimate long-distance relationship: with Opus Zhao, a man from another universe. She was a trans girl who was also an intergalactic moth-goddess. He was a trans guy who piloted a giant robotic tiger. They hated each other, then fell in love, then their universes moved apart. Now, years later, he's turned up in her dimension again. What won't she do to keep him there? Combining Sailor Moon, Sex and the City, and House of Leaves, this riotous enemies-to-lovers romantasy roars off the page in the genre-exploding, galaxy-spanning, quick-quipping retro nostalgia futuristic thrill ride of a lifetime. Give in, succumb (you know you want to) to the unstoppable world of Plastic, Prism, Void.
