Raised by nymphs, died without meeting battle. Got a blue sky because I strongly dislike Trump and Elon.

Is it wise or prudent to wish to glory in the breadth and
magnitude of an empire when you cannot show that the
men whose empire it is are happy?
The joy of such men may be compared to the fragile splendor of glass: they are horribly afraid lest it be suddenly shattered.

Tesla down 15%.
Now is the time to double down on protests.
The far right showed what they can do with Bud Light.
Let those who support LGBTQ+ people, immigrants, government workers, and diversity show what we can do with Tesla.
Those driving Teslas should be seen as collaborators.

That lucky old sun...
Never take sunset pictures but this was a special one. Friendly reminder to step outside and get some fresh air when you feel things start to get to you.

There have been at least 20 mass resignations from scientific journals since 2023. What’s going on?

Nothing to see here, just autocorrect suggesting the word "wrong" to autocomplete "Obviously scientists are"....
I tried dozens of occupations. Lawyers, bankers, politicians, farmers, accountants, you name it.
Only "scientists" and "epidemiologists" get "wrong" as a suggested auto-completion.
