Can I humbly suggest that we do NOT give any techbros the ability to concentrate sunbeams over a 5km swath of land?

Image of the Death Star from Star Wars shooting it’s planet killing beam which is formed from about 8 smaller green laser beams around the circumference of the satellite dish-like indentation on the Death Star. They meet in the middle and form a giant beam. In the case of the solar reflectors, you don’t even have to do that. Just have 8 satellites reflect sunlight to the same patch of land. These people could probably vaporize your city. We need to stop this!!

Legit, I have no doubt that this can take out a boston scientific fascism bot on basically any terrain.

Image of the HUGE battlebot that is the least robot looking battlebot ever: it’s 2 large wheels like a meter in diameter and they’re kind of floppy polymer, so you’d never think it would last in a fight. Then around the axle it’s basically a slim rectangular prism with 3d printed eyes conveying ruthlessness that really no other part of it embodies, and in the center is a lawnmower blade that spins parallel to the wheels. It is way more effective against tiny armored things than you would ever have imagined though!

Oh look, Lee Sarason is doing direct messaging again. Must have gotten tired of feeding lines to Buzz Windrip.

Paragraph from Sinclair Lewis’s book It Can’t Happen Here (1935)

By June, the enrollment of the Minute Men had increased to 562,000, and the force was now able to accept as new members only such trusty patriots and pugilists as it preferred. The War Department was frankly allowing them not just "expense money" but payment ranging from ten dollars a week for "inspectors" with a few hours of weekly duty in drilling, to $9700 a year for "brigadiers" on full time, and $16,000 for the High Marshal, Lee Sarason . . . fortunately without interfering with the salaries from his other onerous duties.

Added some more descriptive alt text here.

Line graph from CSIS depicting right wing violence (red) and left wing violence (blue) from 1994-2025. The Y axis (presumably number of attacks/plots) goes from 0 to 35 with major ticks every 5 attacks. The blue (left wing) attacks are 0-3 from 1994 until about 2011, then 3-4 until 2016, and spiking up to 6 or 7 attacks in 2016, 2020, and 2023 (note these are all under Trump) returning to 2-3 the other years.

The red line (right wing) starts at 16, spikes to 33 in 96, plateaus in the 16-20 range until 1999 when it spikes to 26. From 2000-2006 it declines from the low teens to under 5 but then it builds again after 2008 (great recession/Obama era). Around 2014 it spikes to 23 attacks and then basically is mostly 20-30/year except 2018 (only 10). Now, magically in 2025 it went from 29 attacks per year to 1, despite >1 right wing attacker allegedly trying to assassinate Trump that year.

Post from Reddit’s “Trees” subreddit (Trees is the weed subreddit and vice versa) with a photo of a perfect grilled cheese with an evenly browned crispy looking toast, no crusts (not my approach but I wouldn’t say no to this) and melted cheese that is in that barely congealed state with a slide flow of white cheese that dripped down on the right side but not so runny that it hit the plate. It is presented as a close up view from one corner with a 1-point perspective vanishing point effect on a paper plate that is printed with a reminder that it is reuseable.

It is titled “Got high and made the perfect gilled cheese” and tagged it as Food by u/orangemunchr

The fact that the angriest professionals right now are on the front lines, are watching people die from this, are in the ERs and ICUs, are representing medicaid patients & tenants in an unjust court system, are doing the math on disabling events, are *exactly* the reason they invented student loans.

Not sure who to credit for this one, but it’s a classic meme titled: Why is the Cat Screaming?

Then there’s a woodcut but realistic image of a cat facing away (foreshortened) and angled to the left and clearly yowling at something unseen.

Then two points in text:
1. Why wouldn’t the cat scream

2. If you were smart, you’d be doing the same thing

Here's my attempt to summarize a pretty complicated (unnecessarily in some ways) bar plot with a retrospective average making it look like things ran out later than they actually did.

Graph from the Financial Times with their characteristic pinkish/flesh colored background:
Title: Fertiliser exports through the Strait of Hormuz have collapsed
Subtitle: Daily fertiliser transits through the Strait of Hormuz, by country of origin

Legend:
Dark blue line indicates the 10-day average (presumably across all countries and by the looks of it, the average of the preceding 10 days because it starts around 10 days in on the graph)
Light Blue indicates Saudi Arabia
Blue indicates UAE
Red indicates Qatar
Pink indicates Kuwait
Green indicates Bahrain
Red indicates Iran

The dates range from Feb 13 to Mar 13 or so, but the axis labels are terrible so it's really not clear if they are meant to be on center because they did not distinguish the labeled major ticks from the unlabeled minor ones.

The Y axis is 50, 100, 150 and 200, presumably # of ships so only meaningful if they are a pretty uniform size.

The stacked bars are as follows (approximate):
Feb 13: Saudi Arabia about 45 and Iran about 10
Feb 14: UAE 55, Qatar 45, Kuwait 50
Feb 15: Saudia Arabia 110, Qatar 5
Feb 16: Saudi Arabia 50, UAE 60, Iran 10
Feb 17: Saudi Arabia 40, UAE 70, Bahrain 15
Feb 19-20: none
Feb 21: Saudi Arabia 30, UAE 60, Qatar 30
Feb 22: Saudi Arabia 40, Qatar 50
Feb 23: Saudi Arabia 115, UAE 50, Kuwait 35
Feb 24: Saudi Arabia 75, Qatar 30, Kuwait 15
Feb 25: Saudi Arabia 30, Qatar 80
Feb 26: Saudi Arabia 30, UAE 25, Qatar 30
Feb 27: Saudi Arabia 35, UAE 60, Qatar 5, Bahrain 60
Feb 28: UAE 30
Mar 1: Saudi Arabia 40
Mar 2: UAE 25, Iran 75
Mar 3-6: None
Mar 7: Saudi Arabia 50
Mar 8-13: None

The dark blue 10-day average line trends steadily downward from Mar 2, basically reflecting the average of the 10 preceding days in a way that's pretty unhelpful since it's obvious nothing is getting through.

There may be more to this than I realized. I think we should root for the pirates and reduce the oil dependence of the wealthy nations.

Absurd graph of “Global Average Temperature Vs Number of Pirates” from the olden days of the internet around the dawn of the Flying Spaghetti Monster movement. A simple excel graph of “Number of Pirates (Approximate)” on the X axis (or abscissa if you’re a pedant) and at first glance it appears to be log scale but it’s kinda randomly descending (mostly) with values corresponding to each year: 1820:35,000; 1860: 45,000; 1880: 20,000; 1920: 15,000; 1940: 5000; 1980: 400; 2000: 17.
On the y-axis (or ordinate, if you’re insecure about your intelligence) Global Average Temperature (C) is linear in 0.5C steps from 13 to 16.5. As a great touch, the plot markers are skull and crossbones with an impressive (for th time) vertical gradient, and they are connected by line segments that reveal the smooth, albeit entirely made up, positive relationship. This is a tongue in cheek example of correlation not meaning causation, and a reminder to scrutinize graphs/data carefully.
