Neguse: Only in Washington, D.C. could politicians come to the floor and brag about cutting $9 billion from rural radio stations while two weeks ago they voted to increase the deficit by $4 trillion. Spare us these lectures.

CBS pulling the plug on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert well before the Midterms is probably just a wild coincidence.
In a surprise announcement Thursday, CBS and Late Show host Stephen Colbert said the show will come to an end in May 2026. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/c...

Globally, roughly a third more power is being generated from the sun this spring than last. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world, @billmckibben.bsky.social writes.
4.6 Billion Years On, the Sun Is Having a Moment
In the past two years, without much notice, solar power has begun to truly transform the world’s energy system.

Chuck Schumer makes it to the New Yorker cartoon section. And not in a good way. Chuck, this is your legacy unless you seriously step up.

BREAKING: The Interior Dept just used a fake “energy emergency” to greenlight gas and mining projects on public lands.
It’s a lie. There is no energy emergency. This is a giveaway to big oil.

I'm fine with verification by domain (obviously) but not everyone has a domain or wants to get one. I just hope any new Bluesky verification works like it's supposed to: a simple, widely-accessible verification of personal identity rather than a "prize."

Bluesky may soon add blue check verification | TechCrunch
Changes spotted in Bluesky's codebase indicate the app may soon get a blue check verification system, similar to the look of Twitter's.

Barnes & Noble is taking care of @scalzi.com . I wonder if scenes like this ever get old for an author! (I’ve read almost all of the books on this display!)

I am but a humble cable news host with a bachelor’s in philosophy, but I feel like at some point the bond market is also going to notice that the GOP is going to pass a deficit financed 5 trillion dollar tax cut. Maybe?
