If twitterers only used rhyme
The area would be sublime
Since brains would engage
surpressing the rage
that oozes emotional slime

If only they would use uranium mobility in sediments instead...
The presence of manganese oxides has been used as a proxy for oxygenation on early Earth, but experiments show that manganese-bearing carbonates can photo-oxidize under the UV wavelengths present on early Earth and Marsโeven without oxygen. In PNAS: ow.ly/HweB50Z8Vff

Being part of a generation that was told โWikipedia is not a sourceโ makes it genuinely baffling to me that jobs are now telling people to just use ChatGPT for everything.

Somebody want to make switchblades legal in New Jersey again:
PROPOSAL - instead of banning the traditional Sikh dagger legalise all traditional ethnic daggers BUT you are only allowed to carry the traditional ethnic dagger of your own ethnicity

Aaron was my teammate in Afghanistan on my first deployment. I didnโt know anything. He taught me, and taunted me as any good NCO does.
He earned multiple valor awards on that deployment and almost got killed several times. When he finally got out, we all breathed a sigh of relief.
Less than 100 days after exiting the Army, he died due to VA negligence in Nashville.
He deserved better. He deserved a long life.
I miss him.

Some brain-dead russians tried to hit a live Ukrainian stork with a drone, but the bird completely outmaneuvered it.

OTD in 2014 the Russian attack of Donetsk airport began, lasting 8 months and destroying the airport.
The EU punished me by approving Nordstream 2 a short while later. The message of appeasement was noted.

99% of electricity supply interuptions on Australia's NEM in FY2025 were due to faults on the distribution (95%) & transmission (4%) network.
Distributed local renewable generation paired with islanding capable storage is a great way to be resiliant to the vast majority outages.

The Australian parliament was designed with a lawn rooftop that is accessible to the public, this was intentional symbolism that placed the people above the government of the day...
Anyway they fenced it off in 2017 lol

Why did the Australians design their Parliament building like this? They could have taken their inspiration from their Canadian brethren

Did he develop intestinal problems after having tea with her boss?
My thoughts go out to Tulsi Gabbard and her family, as her husband battles this serious health problem. I hope and pray that he makes a speedy and full recovery.
While the circumstances around her departure are deserving of our sympathy, letโs be clear: Tulsi Gabbardโs only positive contribution to our nation's national security is her resignation.
She politicized intelligence. She dismantled critical agencies keeping Americans safe. She weaponized the IC to pursue baseless election fraud claims. And more.
We must ensure that her tenure โ marked by a devotion to the person of the president and not to the security of the country โ represents a terrible exception at DNI and not the new normal.
