I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

I’ve been sort of idly keeping track of all the points in the Declaration of Independence’s bill of particulars that arguably apply to the Trump Admin. This is the first four-in-a-row I’ve hit. www.archives.gov/founding-doc...

All available evidence has shown that ‘conversion therapy’ does not work and causes significant and long-term harms. The first amendment does not protect the right to inflict material harm on others.
🚨NEW: The Supreme Court will consider whether state laws that prohibit professional counselors from providing "conversation therapy" to LGBTQ minors—that is, attempt to "change" their sexual orientation or gender identity—violate the First Amendment. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

Lol... my NVIDIA stock is sad but I can't help but laugh.
The fact that Deepseek R1 was released three days /before/ Stargate means these guys stood in front of Trump and said they needed half a trillion dollars while they knew R1 was open source and trained for $5M.
Beautiful.

Interesting. I've always heard theory around this that people DO perceive the world differently because English has words that don't exist in other cultures' vocabularies. Whole concepts in some cases.
Researchers have long debated over whether the language we speak shapes how we perceive the world. Now that some 1.5 billion people speak the same language, English, this question has taken on a new urgency.
How Much Does Our Language Shape Our Thinking?
English continues to expand into diverse regions around the world. The question is whether humanity will be homogenized as a result.

Mutual aid is not just a disaster response, it’s a way of caring for one another, building stronger communities, and preparing for whatever life may throw at us next. It’s a labor of love—and a way of life.
