“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.

This is a lovely color tool: colorpalette.pro
…and also a reminder of the era—not that long ago!—when most software looked something like this. It was beautiful to behold and lovely to use. This was taken from us for entirely dubious reasons, but driven people like Ryan can still do it.

Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble.
A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments.
We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.

Your poster reminds me of Mike Jittlov, a stop-motion animator. A demo film he made in the 70s, angling for a special-effects job on a Dr Strange movie, had a sorcerer hero battling a magical multi-armed idol.
To those who could read semaphore code, the waving arms spelled out "HIRE JITTLOV."

"Alligator Alcatraz" is wrong and media should not use it. It's propaganda. Alcatraz held people convicted of crimes, particularly violent crimes.
The Florida camp holds people *not* convicted of any crime. If they had been, they'd be in prison elsewhere.
The site is a textbook concentration camp.

I know the media is going to unthinkingly start using “Alligator Alcatraz,” but it’s disgusting and sadistic and I intend to call it what it is, a fucking concentration camp, and fuck those people who are doing this and giving it a cutesy name.

It's 2025 and Americans still get an average of 15 robocalls each month. Spam calls are not just annoying and predatory, they're preventable.
Congress needs to act and hold bad actors accountable.

Earth will warm 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels in just two years, new data shows. Irreversible tipping points — like the melting of Arctic ice sheets or the collapse of coral reefs — are closer at hand than previously believed.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.
