The Story John Darnielle Lived to Tell
When he was a teenager, the Mountain Goats founder never expected to live to 21. He has since become one of this century’s best songwriters. The lessons of his survival, life, and work feel endless.

Just watched this with Joe. I HEARTILY recommend it.
The hype is real. This two hour long doc about extreme birdwatching is an absolute delight, and nothing less than a soothing balm in horrible times.

The makers have put the whole thing up on YouTube, for free with no ads, and all of you should watch it right now.

Can you imagine the safety violations at a libertarian dick sucking factory?
I shouldn't be surprised that libertarians have no idea how dick sucking factories work, since libertarians don't work lol

After months of reporting and research, I’m really excited and proud to publish this series on AI and energy. It’s a deep look at AI’s energy requirements, where that energy mix comes from, and its carbon debt.

Power Hungry
An unprecedented look at the state of AI’s energy and resource usage, where it is now, where it is headed in the years to come, and why we have to get it right.

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been!

with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

I am a notary in SW PA and I will also do this for you. My notarial powers work anywhere inside the borders of Pennsylvania.
Just in case: If you are in the Seattle-area and need a document notarized to protect yourself and your family from this fascist regime but are too afraid/lack the funds to go to a UPS store or similar, I am a notary and I will notarize your documents *for free*.
