I don’t know which character in this story wrote “payment” in the photo but it reminds me of one of those photos of where they gave a spider crack and let it spin a web…

Project 2025’s call to dismantle NOAA by eliminating or privatizing key functions of the agency is the endgame of years of attempts by conservatives and right-wing media to attack the credibility of the agency and the veracity of the data it produces. It also illustrates that the conservative plan is not just to dismantle U.S. climate policy, but also to scrub the climate data that underpins it.

And if there’s a Republican president, feds won’t help blue states.

Once Project 2025 does away with the NOAA and the NHC they won’t even be able to pre-stage assistance for red states…

I think the Atari 400 is the best looking console of all time, but I’m extremely biased.

On the complete other end of the spectrum, there is looking at the world through the eyes of a total novice.

This can be your own eyes after having traveled to a deeply different country culturally. Or the eyes of a child as they learn and see everything for the first time, or someone visiting your culture from a very different culture.

They can all help you see the beauty in things you’ve grown to take for granted.

Well I hope you don’t live in an apartment. It would be awkward sitting next to your tombstone on the sofa…
