What. A. SHAME. Looks like #Missouri AG Fascist Bailey had to take down his little nazi report form!
You know about binary, at least a little. Its a numbering system. The one you know best is the base ten system. You count up to ten, and that becomes a group called ten, two are called twenty, etc. Binary counts to two. One, ten, eleven, "a hundred" (its not called a hundred) 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000
Some inuit kids invented a written system for the ancient inuit base 20 numbering system.
The inuit count in base 20. And the numbers are fascinating.

@ScottSoCal Ugh. That's so sad. You can't see, but there is also brown mesh, mixed in with the green, from when they originally put sod in, I think.
We're working to return a lawn, put in by previous owners, to meadow/wildflowers. In the process, this is what we dug up, a whole mess of plastic. Please tell me people don't still do this. #SaveThePlanet #Microplastics

I love seeing AOC dunking on shitheads as much as the next guy, but can we please stop treating it as some kind of victory? Itβs not. Itβs just words. Bills becoming laws which protect vulnerable people, now thatβs worth celebrating. More of that, please. Otherwise, no matter how satisfying the clapback itβs still just talk.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' extreme 6-week abortion ban requires rape victims to provide documentation of the rape. Governor DeSantis doesn't understand that rape victims need help, not hurdles.

Common Sleeping Pill Could Slow or Stop Alzheimerβs Disease
poor sleep is linked to higher levels of both amyloid and tau in the brain. The question remains as to whether good sleep has the opposite effect β a reduction in amyloid and tau levels, and a halt in or reversal of the progress of Alzheimerβs disease β but mouse studies with orexin inhibitors have been promising.

It's a total #misframing of #MSNBC and other #news outlets to call the #societal dimension of #GunViolence an βΊ#epidemicβΉ.
Gun violence is a deliberate #choice made by members of a #DeathCult which, for the most part, #disguise themselves as βΊ#ProLifeβΉ:
Plain and simple, the #GOP *wants* people to be killed en masse.

I have a thing for #bears I saw them all the time where I used to live ...it was always a thrill. I guess my bear isn't very well-camouflaged. I wanted to make him look festive instead.

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.
