"DeSantis decided to deny the potentially life-changing class and effectively censor the freedom of our education and shield us from the truths of our ancestors," said prospective plaintiff Elijah Edwards.

@danwentzel "Christians" have been harassing, bullying and killing those that are "other" since the Crusades started in 1095 A.D.

When you preach "love thy neighbor" but your actions are based on hate....I have zero tolerance for you and your so-called religion. And that goes for ALL religions.

I have been surrounded by gays, trans, and drag queens my whole adult life. Not once have I ever had to fear violence or harm from any of them, or had to have special training in case one came into my workplace. Meanwhile, I have been bullied and threatened by people who called themselves “Christians”, harassed by cops, and had to attend special training in case someone shows up at the office with an AR-15.

THIS.

I don't know if people have posted this already...sorry for the repeat if they have. But, here's Michael Harriot's take on the fact the cops who killed #TyreNichols were Black.

Twitter is a mess but I miss Harriot and Elie Mystal. And I damn sure missed finding out where people were gathering to protest Friday night and Saturday.

The criminal probe against George Santos just got real. The Department of Justice reportedly asked the Federal Election Commission to stop investigating Santos. This only happens when the DOJ has concluded that it has a serious criminal case on its hands that’s likely to result in criminal charges, and wants to nudge the FEC out of the way so they don’t trip over each other... https://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/the-criminal-probe-against-george-santos-just-got-real/48742 via @palmerreport

Because of the rise of anti-science thinking and conspiracy theories I have been dreading a day when, if you want to tell a ghost story while camping you must first soberly explain that ghosts aren't real.

But ghosts ARE real. They are real while you are telling the story, that's the whole point to let them be real for a little bit and then... to let it go.

It's real in the way that myths are real. Are we too deep into the age of nonsense for wonder and fun to survive?

All Tyre Nichols wanted to do was go home.

All Trayvon Martin wanted to do was go home.

All Amadou Diallo wanted to do was go home.

Breonna Taylor WAS home.

Hi friends, I was laid off from Google last week and I'm looking for new opportunities. I'd like to find a role where I'm directly working with people to address their infrastructure needs.

A few of the types of problems I'd love to work on:

- building internal platforms
- on-prem/hybrid cloud
- cost optimization
- ops/infra tooling

But I'm also open to many other areas of focus. If you're looking for a senior engineer with an ops/infra focus, please get in touch.

CLIMATE HEAT!

The largest glacier between the high peaks of Mount Rainier and Glacier Peak has melted away after a long battle with global warming.

For thousands of years, the Hinman Glacier graced the crest of the Washington Cascades in what is now King County.

Try not to smile. I dare you.

Out doing errands today when I noticed a large crowd gathered for an anti-abortion rally outside the State Capitol building in Salem, OR. I decided to walk by and get a sense of who was in the crowd and spotted these Oregon Nazis standing in the back handing out fliers for a Holocaust denial film. You'd think "Nazis against genocide" would be a tough PR to pull off. But intellectual consistency and fascism rarely go together.
