1/ Just want to put this news in plain language for people. Senior people at Twitter have resigned in the last 48 hours. We now now why. They said in private Slack channels that @elonmusk is so desperate to recoup his money, he’s taking crazy risks with YOUR privacy and safety.

Baffling to find out there is a pro-Thirty Years War lobby, but apparently there is. Look, folks, the reason the First Amendment's freedom of religion is worded expansively is b/c the framers were operating at less remove from the Wars of Religion and they wanted NONE OF THAT.1/

I started working through @JoyOfCrypto and it’s such a great resource for learning how to write (good) game-based proofs… thanks @GarbledCircus for all the effort to make each proof step extraordinary clear and easy to follow!

As a non-historian I have an idea: English history is a Danish civil war: First the angeles & saxons, from Denmark Then vikings, from Denmark Then normans, vikings from Denmark separated by a generation or so.

"As long as I go fast enough it won't have time to explode"
dudes like this are the backbone of western civilization
There's a school of economics that likens the economy to a computer, one we all power. When we buy something - or walk away - it's data for the computer, which transmits price/demandinformation from consumers to producers to financiers, so that demand can be met with supply. 1/

"Russia" is henceforth defined as "out of range of Ukrainan weapons"
1/2⚡️Macron said that the French weapons that are supplied to Ukraine should not be used for strikes against Russia.
När vi är med i nato kan lekstugan återupptas
Som sagt tidigare: Jag skiter i vad du har för politiska åsikter. Få in oss i Nato så kan du fortsätta ha fria åsikter och vi kan fortsätta käbbla i vår demokratiska trygghet i den svenska ankdammen. Tills dess - enad front, in i Natos trygghet. Sedan käbbel igen.
Robot uprising? Get in the queue. We'll deal with you...I don't know. Later sometime.

🪖If your home was attacked by 🇷🇺, would you stay behind to fight? ❤️In this video by @BackAndAlive and @Ukraine_DAO, soldiers open up and share why they stayed behind to fight for their country. 💪What would your reason be? #BecauseMariupol #ArmUkraineNow

This is another thing which really infuriate me. They only want the rules to apply to other people. If you're going to advocate for a position at least have the guts to actually stand for it.
I grew up in the rural South. I know A LOT of white evangelical anti-choice women who've had abortions. And every single one of those women told me their abortions "didn't count."
Can we rename the current supreme court to the Nazgul? The nine have left Minas Washington and crossed the river...
