Politics as a spectator sport is such a bad thing. We get to see the sausage being made. All those people decrying the Democrats ‘capitulation’ are basically saying “Federal worker’s and the poor's food, rent, mortgage, or car payments are a sacrifice I’m willing to make."

I am beginning to find it somewhat tedious that so many people seem to take pleasure in pointing out absurd and factually erroneous statements generated by LLMs as though it’s some sort of revelation.

Something’s weird with my Bluesky account. My profile says I have 85 followers but I only have 14 and it shows ‘No Results' when I look at the list of followers. My Mutuals list also seems broken only showing me a few posts.

My sources and news outlets are reporting White House confirmation that Jared Isaacman is no longer going to head NASA. His nomination was inspired. His un-nomination is beyond stupid. He is - or would have been - a bright light at NASA. A true believer in the agency, its people, and its potential.
