NPR bears great responsibility for pushing the US into autocracy.

NPR has been unable to accurately convey, without bothsidesism, the dangers we face.

The effect is that NPR listeners are falsely reassuredβ€”they don't learn about how dangerous the moment is, how extreme conservatives have become. Because NPR doesn't state that clearly.

Related: A lot of NPR's income today comes from corporate ads.

Apparently, Twitter is trying to remove every tweet that calls Trump a β€œpussy ass bitch” and it crashed the whole site.

1983: "If you want to know something, your best bet is either a friend or a library."

2003: "If you want to know something, your best bet is a well-formatted Google search."

2023: "If you want to know something, your best bet is either a friend or a library."

Like Bill Gates, fellow billionaire VC Vinod Khosla wants us to delay deployment of wind and solar to wait for new technology like nuclear fusion. No, says Michael Liebreich, we don't have time for that. Fully agree! Let them compete when they're ready.

Got the photo that you legally have to when landing into a foggy London.

When out boating on the #ShawanagaRiver #Ontario #Canada, we discovered this small, cascading #waterfalls with #rock ledges and rocky shore. It was such a beautiful setting with the evergreen forest of Pines, the Maple trees in fall colors of red and gold and the rushing water flowing through the narrow passage.

Let's redo my #introduction :
I'm Audrey, a 34-year old trans woman. My interests include #videogames, cheesy, campy, and #badmovies, #sports (particularly the #Mariners and #Seahawks) and #reading, particularly #fantasy and #ScienceFiction. I also enjoy following #leftist #politics, but I tend not to participate in political discourse. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

I enjoy these:
#finalfantasy
#pokemon
#nintendo
#RetroGaming
#PlayStation
#history
and more!

Wonder why English spoken news are not covering the fact that #Spain passed a law today Allowing to change of sex without medical consent from 12 years olders and over.

@ScottSoCal My cat walks ahead of me when I'm carrying something and abruptly stops for a quick wash so I spill my coffee (or whatever) in avoiding tripping over him

Wyse sent me a notice. I don't have their security cam. What I have is a bathroom scale.

@ScottSoCal I'm 45, never married. However, I'm thinking of changing my last name. It will throw my relatives off my scent when I will the lottery...πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

Pets are brilliant at geometry. They effortlessly calculate the angles to most effectively impede your progress in hallways and doorways.

Sometimes I still feel like I'm in high school with all the jerks laughing smuggly at the mention of my last name...πŸ˜πŸ˜‘

Going to a puppy bowl party. Etiquette question: Is a 30 second butt sniff greeting too long? I don't want to embarrass myself.
