Helene rapidly intensifies into a hurricane on its path to the strongest storm to hit the US in over a year (www.cnn.com)

Helene is on track to make landfall on Florida’s Gulf Coast — likely in the Big Bend region — late Thursday. It could be a Category 3 major hurricane when it reaches the coast, strengthened considerably by the extremely warm water of the Gulf of Mexico. Rapidly intensifying storms like Helene are becoming more frequent in...

We Finally Know What Creates Static Electricity, After Thousands of Years (www.sciencealert.com)

We finally have an answer: The beginning and the end of the sliding motion that produces static electricity experience different forces – resulting in a charge differential between the front and the back that results in the crackle of static electricity.

Fun hiccup fact: the default human state is hiccups, and there’s a small part of the brain that normally suppresses them. There have been rare cases where it’a damaged and someone just… never stops hiccupping. A fate worse than death imo.

Do we have to have this comment every time the victim is male? Have some respect. Men can experience rape too.

I like seeing a group evolve and form good friendships. I also like sci fi and weirdness.

May I recommend Star Trek: Lower Decks? If you’re a fan of animated shows, that is.

Feathercrown ,

How DO you manage to do it so much? Do you comment more per hour, or spend more hours per day?

Feathercrown ,

Oh no, I’m sorry. You have my empathy and I hope what can improve about your situation does in time.

MAGA sheriff’s post about Harris yard signs gets Department booted from election duties (www.thedailybeast.com)

The sheriff’s department in Portage County, Ohio has been stripped of its election security duties after its MAGA sheriff said people displaying Kamala Harris signs in their yards should have their addresses recorded so illegal immigrants can be sent to their homes....

Wow nice

Hmm, curious, I wonder how on Earth that could’ve happened…

It would be pretty funny if microplastics had a positive effect on our bodies. It would be an interesting moral dilemma.

We need women to be confident and assertive in their personal lives to not have them go the other way and accept their male partner’s views. Here’s hoping! I think it’s possible.

If he weren’t lying I’d be ecstatic right now. Although the laws of human mortality may prove him a truth teller for once in his life.

Yes bringing up porn in every comment section makes you funny and mature 🙄

Perhaps you were just in a foul mood and, since your comment didn’t get the traction you expected, you’re now reflexively defending yourself using the classic strategy of posting a gif to try and both limit my possible responses and to indicate the opinion you hold of your own position of superiority in this conversation by considering me unworthy of a response you reserve for those you consider ‘mature’ adults?

I mean, I didn’t expect it to be well-received, but to quote the girl from Deadpool, you got me in a box here.

I appreciate you taking the time to evaluate the situation so thoroughly. I also really appreciate your kind words. It really has been a horrible news cycle these last few months, hasn’t it? Despite my hope that Kamala can pull off a win, I’ve recently come to the realization that the annoying people were right and “the system” really doesn’t work as it should at all. We’re one wrong move away from the edge, and I feel like the people in power are doing nothing to help that situation. (At least, most of them-- too few to make real progress). It’s rough out there, man. If you need anything I’m here as well.

As for the actual post… I just don’t like how every political post has like 6 sex jokes under it. I know I said “you” are always posting them but that wasn’t right; I meant that someone always does. It’s like that webcomic where people psychic attack each other by saying phrases that make them think of horrible things. Hearing about Trump and porn in the same sentence makes me take psychic damage. I posted the gif because I perceived your reply as disingenuous; I now see that you actually did mean to help, but I’ve seen too many people feign concern as a way to say that the person they’re replying to must be mentally unwell (in a derogatory way) to trust it. It seemed disproportionate enough to be interpreted that way, but I see now that I was wrong.

This has been a bit of a ramble, but thank you for reminding me there are still good people on the internet. I think I’ll head to bed now. Hope to see you again on here!

Florida sheriff questioned for posting identities of teens who made school shooting threats (www.theguardian.com)

A Florida sheriff’s novel approach to countering school shooting threats by exposing online the identities of children who make them is drawing ire from juvenile justice advocates as well as others who say the tactic is counterproductive and morally wrong....

Constellation Energy plans to invest $1.6B to revive the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania and sell all the output to Microsoft for AI energy demands. (www.cnbc.com)

Three Mile Island was the worst nuclear accident in US history. Was mainly caused by poor design of human feedback systems which caused operational confusion and lead to a catastrophic failure.

Nuclear power plants don’t make nuclear bombs…

Oh really? Neat

Nobody other than red or blue is getting in power for the next 20 years or so at least. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you and the people you’re voting to protect can be helped by your vote.

Feathercrown ,

What people mean when thwy say those things is: voting for anyone except Harris increases Trump’s chances of winning compared to a Harris vote. This is trivially true.

Feathercrown ,

I hope your sense of moral superiority is worth more to you than the lives and livelihood of some of the US and all of Palestine.

Feathercrown ,

And not voting will fix this how?

If you choose not to take the effective paths, you will get nothing done.

Oh no, it feels bad to do the right thing

It’s not about “rewarding” the politicians. They exist to implement policies. It’s about choosing the policies that materially benefit the causes you care about the most. “Logic”. Jfc.

Liz Cheney blocked January 6 scrutiny of Ginni Thomas, book says (www.theguardian.com)

Liz Cheney, the Republican vice-chair of the House January 6 committee, did “all she could” to protect the rightwing supreme court justice Clarence Thomas and his wife, the political activist Ginni Thomas, by blocking an in-depth investigation of Ginni’s involvement in Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020...

I mean, I wouldn’t have expected that plan to fail either if I was the DNC. Anyways, one counterexample isn’t meaningful.
