I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

On the evening of April 14, 1912 the RMS Titanic sailed into the freezing waters of the Labrador current. Up until then it had been sailing in the relatively warm waters of the Gulf Stream. Many people onboard Titanic noticed a sharp drop in temperature when the ship entered the Labrador Current

Updates to the NWS Upper Air Network:

As of April 3, Bethel, AK, moved to once-per-day (12 UTC) balloon launches.

I'm told that McGrath, AK, could suspend flights in May, while Yakutat, King Salmon, and Annette Island, AK, could go to one flight per day in the next couple months.

This is a damn good book about photography. It is not a how to book; it is about engaging, interacting with people and learning to feel your surroundings. @davidhobby.bsky.social is the right man to guide you. Cheers.

I think replacing Google with Kagi was one of the best decisions I made last year. If you lack a New Year’s resolution, I can totally recommend this! It’s been a very positive change.
I published an article about why.

If you are trying to create more healthy digital habits, one decision you must make, is how you find information online. The past year I've completely replaced Googling with Kagi.
