Chaos cat, ultra crazy version
This orange cat is the chaos coordinator of the household, turning every room into a stage for his wild antics. From knocking over food bowls to playing hide-and-seek with his own toys, he's the star of a never-ending comedy show where the punchline is always, "What did he do now?" 🐱🎭😂

Some time ago, without realizing it, I bought some toothpaste that has charcoal in it. Strange stuff, who decided that Goth toothpaste was a good idea?

Intentional recklessness, the consequences expected, if not planned?
We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...
The FAA is facing a major crisis without a leader because Elon Musk pushed him out
FAA chief Michael Whitaker resigned earlier this month after facing criticism from Musk.

I've been researching the idea of Unconditional Universal Basic Income since 2013. Here's a collection of findings I've compiled from various UBI experiments and studies of cash transfer programs around the world.
This will be a VERY LONG and ongoing thread focused entirely on empirical evidence. 🧵

The results from the world’s largest Universal Basic Income study are now in. Findings:
“A monthly UBI empowered recipients and did not create idleness. They invested, became more entrepreneurial, and earned more. The common concern of “laziness” never materialized.”
