Train! A 2.5 minute video of a train passing at 70 mph at night in rural Missouri. Trains are great 😊

Ok, I know it is not the crossing that I could have been killed at over 40 years ago. It is not that there are crossing lights (there were none in my incident, I saw the train at the last second), but because the trains do not go that fast on the track where it happened. Which probably was what let me spot the train in pitch-black night. There are crossing lights now. Formerly rural, but no longer.

still really impressed about the discovery that the japanese water beetle can survive getting eaten by frogs because it combines its natural tendencies with just straight up walking through the entire digestive system at a brisk jog.

like they just fucking say no thank you and leave. this feels like one of the most insanely powerful adaptations i can imagine a creature having. like nah i can't do anything to stop the voracious predator of my biome from consuming me. Doesn't Mean I Give Up

The lack of professionalism is galling. And it is interfering with the fair administration of justice. Per Chris Geidner, “Judge overseeing DOJ's prosecution of Luigi Mangione orders DOJ to explain by Oct. 3, via sworn declaration, why prejudicial statements continued to be made about him by DOJ officials, contrary to rule/order. Judge Garnett warns that sanctions could follow if there are future violations.”

They'll find some lesser charges to pin on him. Littering shell casings or something. NY state firearms laws.
Edit: I predict this administration will start "Navalnying" prisoners who might infect other inmates with powerful messages.

"Conservative writer Bill Kristol took to social media today to say: “So many coverups. Release the Epstein files. Release the Homan tapes. Release the Venezuelan fishing boats evidence.”
Kristol was referring to three stories about which members of the administration seem to be hiding things that don’t fit their narrative."

Doctor Nagham Abu Hamila, reporting for the Global Sumud Flotilla from Gaza City.

“All eyes must be on Al-Shifa hospital. This is the only functioning governmental hospital left in Gaza City. Most organizations and medical crews have already left, and now there are only around fifteen doctors covering all departments. Every patient from Gaza city is being sent there for treatment. Drones are shooting, and tanks are just five hundred meters away. Families whom are displaced go there , they have no food, no water, and the situation is absolutely critical. Yet there is almost no press coverage. Please, we must speak up, we must share this—because right now, all eyes must be on Al-Shifa hospital.”

Please share this message widely.
