If you need some perspective, browse @auschwitzmuseum or even follow them! Their frequent posts with names, pictures and details of those who died in concentration camps is humbling. It is unfathomable that they could go on posting so far beyond my lifetime. #holocaust #remembered

I never tire of asking Mormon elders what the missionary position is on different things.
Today, it's -40ΒΊC/-40ΒΊF in the Yukon wilderness around my cabin. Nature is calm, frigid, cold and utterly stunning. The air is freezing but still very refreshing for the lungs. In this natural environment, I danced to create warmth. I'm dispatching the good vibe to the world. Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ezVd6pBiTtw
14th Amendment, Section 3 bars anyone from holding office who βengaged in insurrection" against the U.S.
This isn't some obscure provision. A New Mexico judge used it against an insurrectionist county commissioner.
Why shouldn't it also apply to Trump?
Y'all are chasing working artists away from this place by harping on how "sad" and "pathetic" it is for them to hope for a large follower count here.
It's not about attention. It's about their bottom line. More followers means more commissions, more customers in their online shops, more direct exposure to people with hiring power. It's honestly really cruel to keep acting like they want adulation when really they just want to pay rent.
They have ample reason to mourn what they built.
19 December 1941 | A Dutch Jewish boy, Frank Emanuel Polak, was born in Amsterdam.
In February 1944 he was deported to Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

@ScottSoCal @georgetakei Would hate to be the new CEO who has to try to actually make the company work while Musk is constantly forcing them to do every ridiculous thing that pops into his mind.
This is your year non-trans folks. This is the year
to be the one to call out grandma for misgendering your non-binary cousin,
to call out how fucked up your uncles transphobic jokes are, or
to tell your mom that her excuses for deadnaming someone arenβt good enough.
Itβs time to make this your problem. How are you going to stand up for trans people this holiday?

Pretty much this. Musk doesn't have to be in a CEO position to keep pulling strings just to see what unravels.
Average power use for my house is ~25KWH per day, I deliberately got a larger system because I anticipate adding a couple of BEV vehicles in the near future. Probably 1 electric-only and 1 plug-in hybrid. 2 days before the shortest day of the year, I'm still making more power than my house uses. I wonder what it'll look like during the summer?

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
