We have a huge weather shift happening today, so I'm blaming that.
It's raining like the dickens right now. And my nose is sooo irritated you would think it was pollen, but I think it's air-pressure changes. And a HUGE, sharp cold front floating through behind the rains, Temps will be dropping almost 20 degrees.

@sundogplanets yay! It's sad why it's called Shifting Baselines. We don't even notice the change as it is happening.
I feel the same way with the insects splattered on the windshields. They were there and then they weren't.

Bien al principio de La montaña mágica:
Zeit, sagt man, ist Lethe; aber auch Fernluft ist so ein Trank, und sollte sie weniger gründlich wirken, so tut sie es dafür desto rascher.
Hace rato busco una traducción al español que me guste pero no encuentro. En cualquier caso: en Montevideo yo la estaba pasando genuinamente mal. Quizás eso habría mejorado, eventualmente, pero la verdad es que escaparme funcionó mucho más rápido. A veces hay que permitirse ser medio impulsivo, nomás
@budin de uno que hizo algo parecido en la dirección contraria, totalmente de acuerdo.

These Republicans never want to smoke some weed and just chill, it's always meth, prostitutes, and the destruction of the planet with these fascists.

Brendan Larsen from Ngāmotu in Aotearoa and a member of the New Plymouth Astronomical Society took this stack over a couple of hours and estimates 14000 satellite trails. This is how bad it is now, it's set to get much much much worse - and then we lose Low Earth Orbit until the mess cleans itself up, if it cleans itself up. No weather satellites for forecasting, no GPS, and definitely no crewed spaceflight. All because of ego and greed. It must be stopped.

Targeted ads discovered which are zero-click spyware which can de-anonymize, fingerprint, and automatically infect devices the moment an advertisement is rendered
“Devices at international news network Al Jazeera were infected with mercenary spyware from Candiru (rebranded as “Integrity Labs”) via targeted online advertisements.
The malicious advertisements were purchased by Discover-Tech, an Israeli company that presents itself as a legitimate advertising company, but which we found operates as a facilitator for multiple mercenary spyware partners.
Discover-Tech operates a platform called Controlium that enables its mercenary partners to de-anonymize, fingerprint, and automatically infect devices the moment an advertisement is rendered — a form of zero-click attack.”
