Of course Putin will use nukes if he thinks he can get away with it - he's a psychopath. That's why he must know he can't get away with it, and same for any people who push the button on Putin's behalf.

An American general described how the US would respond in a nonnuclear way if Putin nukes Ukraine. Essentially, the US would sink all Russian surface ships and do all kinds of damage that would reduce Russia's military capability rather drastically.

And the story I've always heard is that the QWERTY keyboard layout was deliberately designed to limit typing speed, because typing too fast would jam the mechanism.

No idea if that's a true thing, or a myth.

Christopher Latham Sholes received a patent for an invention he called the "Type-Writer" #OTD in 1868.

This was the first typewriter to be a commercial success (about 5000 were made), the first to use the QWERTY keyboard layout invented by Sholes, and the first to be called a typewriter; the term was coined by Sholes. via @Wikipedia

@renwillis I can see where the sadly cheaper, but just as cute, Iron Giant watch of my youth came from 🀯 I saw one in a local collector's shop a few months ago for £5 and I still regret to this day not getting it 😭

I thought I could try modelling my handmade jewellery instead of just uploading them alone. What do you think? ❀️

@anubis2814 @lednabm @Doreen32128 Plenty of billionaire non-penis people have the same attitude. It’s the lack of humanity, not the plumbing.

Multnomah County in Oregon is suing oil and gas companies Exxon Mobil, Shell, Chevron, BP, ConocoPhillips & related organizations for the damages caused by the 2021 PNW heat dome. Multnomah County said these and other fossil fuel companies and entities operating in the region are significantly responsible for causing and worsening the deadly heat event-. #ClimateCrisis #OffFossilFuels Oregon county sues oil, gas companies for deadly 2021 PNW heat dome: cnbc.com/2023/06/23/multnomah-

Prior to Nixon, the US had 1/5th the prison population of the USSR post-Stalin, after Reagan we had double the population as the Soviet union even though its population hadn't gone down by much because we had much longer sentences. Since then we have doubled our prison population. China now has 1/3rd the prison population we do. If the Soviet union and China are rightfully called a police state what the hell does that make the US?

The UK will never have (and shouldn't have) the sweetheart deal it had before. All in, or all out, no half measures.

On this day, in 2016, the UK voted in the #EUReferendum to leave the European Union.

Things have never been the same since. As a committed #European, the result broke my heart. I will never β€œget over it”, nor will I β€œmove on.” The compelling case to rejoin is clear. We need politicians to be honest and admit this. NOW.

If she's going out on one of her yachts, I hope she gets to see the orcas. Up close.

Given the threat that President Zelensky is referring to in the previous toot, these 2 Senators are alarmed enough to introduce a resolution: Lindsey Graham and Sen Blumenthal introduced a bipartisan resolution declaring russia's use of nuclear weapons or destruction of the occupied Zaporizhia Nuclear Powerplant in Ukraine to be an attack on NATO requiring the invocation of NATO Article 5

Show thread

Paramount has cancelled Star Trek: Prodigy and will shop the second season to another network.

Prodigy was a fantastic show with fun characters that could have brought Star Trek to a new audience. Cancelling the show was a dumb move designed to cut short-term costs at the expense of long-term growth.

Excited to watch #ThePerfectFind this weekend! Trying to get my girls together for some wine, popcorn, and a show!

I love moss and I love frogs and I just discovered the cutest thing in existence: the Vietnamese moss frog πŸ€—

First was Titanic. Next was Titan. So I guess if the pattern follows, don’t get on any vessels named Tit.
