What was the most important lesson we learned from Star Trek and the Borg? It’s that resistance is never futile! It’s a long game.

So this 25 year old has direct access -- read *and write* access -- to a system that makes trillions of dollars of payments a year and nobody can see what he's doing

SO COOL that Vox Media had two rounds of layoffs in the past three months and keeps cutting our budgets and yet somehow there's $20 million for one person

"The coolest discovery scientists have found (so far) is that the modified protein is implemented within 24hrs...this is a tool cephalopods are using for short-term environmental acclimation. Not just species in two diff. parts of the world, but locally, from upwelling currents to seasonal change."

There's oceans everywhere.
The Jovian moon Ganymede for instance

If there's an ocean layer, then there's an active core, if there's an active core then there's convection currents which would drive a vent system not unlike our own deep ocean vents.

We're Making Fox Great Again

The only Fox News you should be listening to.

"If they pounced to the north-east, they killed on 73% of their attacks; if they jumped in the opposite direction,,,, 60%. In all other directions, only 18% of their pounces were successful".

It must also be said that the resistance of the broader US public to the lure of fascism in the 1930s was not due to any moral clarity but because they were relentlessly propagandized by FDR and allies to reject these ideas and embrace more liberal ones. They weren’t better people than we are.
I’d also like to add that we don’t have very many stories about fascist ideology here in the United States aside from 1930s “America First” movements when Confederates, Redeemers, the first and second Klan, Dixiecrats, and McCarthyism all have hallmarks of fascist thinking.
