The discarded upper portion of a rocket launched by Elon Musk’s SpaceX last year was expected to unintentionally crash into the moon early Wednesday, adding yet another crater to the surface of our nearest neighbor at around 5,400 miles an hour.

absolutely maddening that we have so many people who know how to describe election night returns correctly and none of them write for large media outlets

These fools took too long to do anything interesting with the property and now Michael B Jordan is making Thomas Crown Affair with a distinctly LOOK AT ME, I AM THE JAMES BOND NOW vibe now and he's probably gonna kick any possible Bond flick square in the nuts soooo good fuckin luck kids

Cops Used Flock to Track a Man Across State Lines to Create Pretext to Search His Car for Weed. “The vehicle travels to Michigan frequently which is a known source state for marijuana as it is legal there," a probable cause justification reads. This is definitely probably cause not probable cause

Def Jam is having a $10 sale & a $19.99 sale. Couple of classics are up there, esp on the $19.99 side New vinyl folk, this is a good start. You might wanna save this in your favs or bookmark it because they update it every few months. defjamshop.com/collections/...

Turns out 29,000 or so of the signatures collected were duplicates (or triplicates, or quadruplicates in at least one case!), from out-of-Portland voters, from people not registered to vote, or otherwise invalid. www.portland.gov/auditor/news...

Worth noting that the primary reason signatures were deemed invalid was because the signer was not registered to vote in Portland, the city the initiative would impact, as required by state law.

A ballot initiative that sought to direct 25 percent of Portland’s Clean Energy Fund toward hiring additional police officers failed to gather enough valid signatures to qualify for the November ballot.

Reminder to everyone living with smoky air right now: DRINK MORE WATER. You're inhaling particulate even if you can't see it, your body needs to flush that crud out, and it needs water to do so. You're probably gonna produce more mucus and that's annoying, but it's helping clean out the crud.

that casual phrase, "...he had not thought how the remarks would affect her." seems well and sufficient as an obituary, IMHO.

I'm moving my friends and family to a subscription model so instead of purchasing my undying love and respect once they will now have to do so annually.

This times a million for the "psychedelic seeker community" I know people who have been having "breakthrough, transformative" trips once a month for years but their behavior hasn't changed a lick: still wallowing in self-centered hedonism, zero time/energy for selfless giving or helping others

Liberals don't want deep structural change because it imperils their tacit "captive opposition" dynamic with the ruling class which affords them overseer and court jester roles and a protected place in society. Fundamentally their allegiance is to stability since they live in comfort and safety.

Mick Jagger & Marianne Faithfull ariving at a London court, in May, 1969. The pair had been arrested in a drugs bust (cannabis) at Jagger's Chelsea home earlier in the day. The photo shows them quite relaxed, despite facing court proceedings. They were both granted bail. Photo: Peter Kemp.

"Centrist" has always been problematic but this is getting ridiculous. I once again suggest/endorse the phrase "Vichy Democrat" which captures the essence of the dynamic much more accurately.

This is absolutely insane, imagine if a progressive elected official was refusing to support Haley Stevens if she won! You’d never hear the end of it. Centrists are the ones who are dividing the Democratic Party with their Islamophobia and purity tests.
