Today's my 45th birthday, and I'm staving off feeling ancient by sharing a recent once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: next Wednesday, May 7, I'll be a contestant on Jeopardy! I still kind of can't believe it. 😱 Check www.jeopardy.com/watch for your local listing. @jeopardyofficial.bsky.social
With all apologies to the Dude, science is not just like, your opinion, man.
JD Vance: "Science as practiced in its best form is that if you disagree with it, then you ought to criticize it and you ought to argue against it."

You can disagree and argue as much as you like but the point of evaluating something scientifically is that not every statement should be given equal credence because evidence matters

The real victory of the Republicans is making the Democrats argue amongst themselves over whether food or healthcare was more important. Like one of those tic-tac-toe boards where you can’t lose.

I really need a moratorium on lecturing people who already agree. How about we all assume that everyone here already knows why most things are bad and don’t need it explained to them.

Energy makes the world go round, so it’s no surprise that greedy assholes want to control it, creating scarcity to inflate their importance and enrich themselves.
The truly maddening thing is that, unlike when I was a young man in science and the materials and engineering just weren’t there yet, the future is *right there.* The problem is *solved*. What’s holding us back is not just greed, but this bizarre nostalgia, an obsession with petro- masculinity.
Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Zohran Mamdani polled +40% on men under 30. So we wasted all that time on all those think pieces about how we need a Joe Rogan for the left, when what we actually needed were *policies* for the left.

The Trump administration's refusal to pay SNAP benefits is galling to me on a very personal level.
I can't change their minds. I don't have billions of dollars to give to people who need help. But I can do some good. Will you join me in donating to your local food pantry?
