“Mitch McConnell remaining technically alive for an extra three weeks because of a manipulative procedural maneuver is exactly how he would have wanted to go out" 🔥🔥🔥

The thing they wouldn't be expecting him to do was to be there in the first place. Only an absolute idiot would be sitting where he was, so he was winning already. A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

WHO'S READY FOR THE MUSTACHE RIDE OF THEIR LIFE?!

I'm a parent with a 9-month old baby looking to chat with other parents. Can you recommend fedi accounts of parents with younger children who talk about parenting? (There may be many silent parents on here.)

Bonus points if they ride bikes / avoid cars, are passionate about climate justice, are COVID conscious / interested in public health, or concerned about LLMs & surveillance capitalism (all relatively common on fedi no doubt, despite conditions in the outside world).

I think the World Cup should be food-based. Hot dogs Vs Paella. Bacalhau com Natas Vs Fondue. Jollof Vs Fårikål. Chiles en Nogada Vs Greggs sausage roll. I will be the judge. I volunteer. I think I'm hungry. HERE COMES HARRY KANE WITH A CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA. Lovely. Let's watch that in replay. He's a national treasure. Straight past Mbappés moules frites. VAR calls cassoulet.

TIL about the Mojave megaphone, a large, megaphone-shaped mystery object is bolted to two rocks on top of a 100-foot hill along a remote strip of desert between the towns of Baker and Ludlow, CA.

Today I learned...

@ryanprior @skyfaller @ai6yr Wet bulb temperature is lower than the real air temperature unless there's 100% relative humidity. It is the lowest temperature achievable by evaporation.

For example: 35°C with 50% relative humidity is a wet bulb temp of 27.5°C

I still say, these data centers' true purpose is to terraform a warmer planet for the reptilians
