Less than a billion years old. This relative youth gives Epsilon Eridani a higher level of magnetic activity than the Sun, with a stellar wind 30 times as strong. The star's rotation period is 11.2 days at the equator.

Once worked on a video game project with a trans woman who was an ex-US army ranger.

Tough, charismatic, smart, witty - any army unit would have been lucky to have them.

Hegseth, by contrast, has the aura of a smeg-reeking teenage boy who just got through watching Predator for the first time.
Hegseth: "No more dudes in dresses. No more climate change worship ... we are done with that shit."

For the rest - this is a full page ad in the Atlantic magazine.

The idea that anyone - even in marketing - believes this pitched-at-a-9-year-old-male-mindset shit has general currency & will actually land with an educated adult public is fucking terrifying.

Not least because they might be right. 🤮

Speaking as a worker whose work has been stolen and ripped off multiple times by AI companies, I can certainly vouch for the real fucking impact.

Trump: "The problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would've won easy. We would've won Afghanistan easy. We would've won every war easy. But we got politically correct. 'Oh, let's take it easy.' We're not politically correct anymore, just so you understand."

Epsilon Eridani is only 10.5 light years away—close enough to see with the naked eye—the inner secrets of the solar system have remained elusive.

Outstanding article here - insight, clarity, challenge. No notes.

Like a cool, cleansing shower for your mind - you can almost feel all the sweaty techbro bullshit sloughing, see it swirling away down the drain where it belongs.

In fact, I'm going to pitch DC Vertigo a team of supervillains who've come to destroy America, and Something Called Molly is high in their ranks.

Also appearing - Signalman, The Dogkiller, Novax Doom, The Ketamine Kid, King Slug.....

Well - WiP, anyway. But they all die horribly by the end.
Y'know what - I declare that henceforth Pam Bondi shall be referred to exclusively, everywhere, by everyone, as Something Called Molly.

This replaces my previous preference, which was Bondi Bitch.

Right - off to split wood. 💪

Honestly, this living in the rural back arse of nowhere is really fucking with my noir sophisticate vibe.

Give me another five years and I'll be stringing dried mouse skulls and daisies on stripped ivy stem to hang at the door for luck.....

They're gonna need another FDR to clean up the mess once Trump & Tribe's time shitting on America/Americans is done.

From an outside (and admittedly under-informed) perspective, I'm not seeing anyone in the Democrat ranks yet who fits that bill.

Feels like they could save headline space and just make each one "TRUMP FAILS." Bound enrage him.

In fact, if I were a US newspaper with the remotest interest in the future of the nation (ie not the New York Times or Washington Post), I'd be leading with that on a daily basis.....

Strong contender for best panel caption I've ever read in a comic book/graphic novel -

"How did Bad Company Die?"

"PERFECTLY!"

(You're welcome to add competing contenders, natch.......)
