The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster.

Historian of fascism here. It was a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one too.
The Nazis think this was a Nazi salute, but, hey, what would they know?

Zuckerberg: "We're going to move content moderation to Texas, a hotbed of white supremacy, LGBTQ hatred, anti-abortion zealotry, and all-around right-wing kookiness, because it will ensure a more even-handed tone. Kidding. It's so Trump won't break up the company."

I was disappointed when Bezos pressured the @washingtonpost.com to not endorse Kamala Harris, but kept my subscription. To censor Ann Telnaes @anntelnaes.bsky.social forcing her to resign tells me that I can't have confidence in the ability of the newspaper to report on the incoming administration.
