anecdotally, I know people finishing their phds that have jobs lined up elsewhere in the world because there are no federal science job openings

the brain drain is real and self-imposed

this guy might be the only actual democratic socialist in US politics (not just a socdem)

I hope he is the first of many

On April 25, 2024, Sheehan purchased a brand-new Cybertruck from a Tesla showroom in Houston

“I bought this after elon went crazy”

Musk Calls USAID ‘a criminal organization’ that should ‘die’

She got the truck in 2024, the rental car in 2021. Still would have been an insane self-own, but 2024 is way crazier

Over the next three years, Ma’Lady and I drove more than 35,000 miles

SHE’S ACTING LIKE DRIVING 20 MINUTES AWAY IS GOING TO KILL HER

LED headlights can be many times brighter than incandescent bulbs with no significant impact to life expectancy. Physically, incandescent bulbs produce light by heating up an element which decays relatively quickly. LEDs directly convert electricity to light.

In the US, there ARE regulations limiting how bright headlights can be, but aftermarket LEDs can be bought which exceed the limit. I’ve heard the EU and Asia already widely use adaptive headlight technology so it’s a uniquely american car problem

they use proprietary file formats (MOV and HEIC) that need to be converted to a universal format like jpg or MP4 to be viewed on android (I think this can be changed in iPhone settings), and the conversion looks like shit

I thought it was common knowledge that the dams deliberately destroyed their way of life, every museum with exhibits on pre-columbian cultures I’ve been to in the PNW acknowledged this

If they weren’t libs they’d do reparations

I slept in this town once when I was temporarily homeless. I was lucky enough to not be harassed by cops. Letting people sleep in public spaces doesn’t harm anyone except landlords, the housing market, and the hotel/airbnb industry. How the fuck is an unemployed unhoused person supposed to eventually afford rent if they’re fined for existing outside?

so many people are saying this

divinity??
