evacide<p>No amount of complicity is going to save you from fascism, so you might as well fight.</p>
AlexLunaView<p>THIS IS MASSIVE. Portugal has cancelled the order for F-35s from the US and will replace their F-16s with European fighters. “We have to be able to count on the predictability of our allies, which is no longer the case with the United States.&quot;<br />More EU states to come.

Corey S Powell<p>See that little gray rock?</p><p>That&#39;s Deimos, the mysterious outer moon of Mars, spied yesterday as the Hera spacecraft buzzed by the Red Planet. Little Deimos is just 12km (8 miles) wide.</p><p>Such a cool shot.</p><p><a href="https://www.esa.int/Space_Safety/Hera/Hera_asteroid_mission_spies_Mars_s_Deimos_moon" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">esa.int/Space_Safety/Hera/Hera</span><span class="invisible">_asteroid_mission_spies_Mars_s_Deimos_moon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/space" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>space</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/astronomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>astronomy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>photography</span></a></p>
Heidi Li Feldman<p>AOC just posted this on bluesky.</p>
Cube Drone<p>You want to simultaneously juice Canadian tech and cripple American tech? Offer expedited citizenship for LGBTQ+ Americans </p><p>Trust me it&#39;ll work</p>
SnoopJ<p>Program goes to Operating System, tears in eyes, says "my state, it is very bad"</p><p>Operating System says "is no problem, have good error reporting facility, detailed but concise report, contextual information included. you will submit bug there"</p><p>Program sobs loudly "but Operating System, I *am* error reporting facility"</p>
Qasim Rashid, Esq.<p>Schumer is capitulating to Trump, again.</p><p>For those saying that Chuck Schumer is just one Senate Democrat and doesn&#39;t speak for the entire party, I have two responses:<br />1. He literally is the minority Leader of the Democrats, so yes he does speak for the party in capitulating to Trump<br />2. If Senate Dems found his act truly objectionable, they&#39;d remove him. They won&#39;t. They&#39;re complicit.</p><p>We desperately need leadership with the courage to fight injustice.</p>

Randahl Fink<p>This is not AI:</p><p>Trump threatens to copy Putin’s Crimean invasion, by using existing US bases on Greenland as a bridgehead to invade the Island — just like Putin sent thousands of soldiers to his Sevastopol base on Crimea to start the invasion.</p><p>I am sorry, but I can only conclude the US is now an enemy of The Kingdom of Denmark.</p>
Jordi (Flopsome Opossum)<p>To my American friends,</p><p>I love you dearly, but if you joke about the annexation of Canada like it's not deadly fucking serious, I have no issue with dropping your ass. That Damn Frank got a block. I have a feeling that he won't be the last.</p><p>This is an invasion we're talking about. An unlawful imposition of one country's will against another.</p><p>If you think we'll lie back and just take it, you don't know anything about us.</p><p>I like to think that I choose my friends carefully. I call you friends because you are compassionate and strive for kindness and acceptance. I hope y'all don't let me down.</p>
M.S. Bellows, Jr.<p>Hey, fedi? Chuck Schumer is old and sucks, but Bernie Sanders is even older and is fighting like hell. And AOC is great and young, but Lauren Boebert is young and awful.</p><p>It's not the age, my friends. It's the policies. Don't like racism or sexism? Cool. Don't do ageism either.</p>
Tod Maffin 🇨🇦 FREE PATREON<p>It started with joking about it.</p><p>Today, the US President told his military to make plans to invade, by force, Panama.</p><p>He announced his plans to annex Greenland - in front of the NATO head.</p><p>He said the only way out for Canada was to become part of the U.S.</p><p>This is not a joke.<br>War is coming.</p>

John Carlos Baez<p>The arXiv is where we keep papers on math, physics, etc. It's run by Cornell University.</p><p>It seems unlikely that the US government would demand that Cornell destroy the arXiv.

Scalzi<p>Because it was time, I have -- finally! -- created a FAQ for the church, to answer most of the questions that come up whenever I mention that indeed, I own a church. The FAQ also has lots of pictures so you can see what it looks like now.

Dan Gillmor<p>This is an absolute must-read from Wired, which has been far ahead of Big Journalism on the Musk-Trump takeover of your most personal data -- to be used for their corrupt takeover of, well, everything they can grab. </p><p><a href="https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-digital-coup-doge-data-ai/?utm_source=nl&amp;utm_brand=wired&amp;utm_mailing=WIR_PaywallSubs_031325_Special_PoliticsWebinar_Invite&amp;utm_campaign=aud-dev&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_content=WIR_PaywallSubs_031325_Special_PoliticsWebinar_Invite&amp;bxid=5d38a1c8fc942d282359db8f&amp;cndid=33481107&amp;hasha=a57d3949484051fd7c962b7dd3735412&amp;hashb=ded1d3a30a8645a4b9beaa77e199c322b54507f6&amp;hashc=0db074aa21cbd7773ea150f5e7576a96e30aa98a3b747089e1874287c721e2fc&amp;esrc=OIDC_SELECT_ACCOUNT_&amp;utm_term=WIR_PaywallSubs_Active" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">wired.com/story/elon-musk-digi</span><span class="invisible">tal-coup-doge-data-ai/?utm_source=nl&amp;utm_brand=wired&amp;utm_mailing=WIR_PaywallSubs_031325_Special_PoliticsWebinar_Invite&amp;utm_campaign=aud-dev&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_content=WIR_PaywallSubs_031325_Special_PoliticsWebinar_Invite&amp;bxid=5d38a1c8fc942d282359db8f&amp;cndid=33481107&amp;hasha=a57d3949484051fd7c962b7dd3735412&amp;hashb=ded1d3a30a8645a4b9beaa77e199c322b54507f6&amp;hashc=0db074aa21cbd7773ea150f5e7576a96e30aa98a3b747089e1874287c721e2fc&amp;esrc=OIDC_SELECT_ACCOUNT_&amp;utm_term=WIR_PaywallSubs_Active</span></a></p><p>Wired has an inexpensive paywall and is worth every dime.</p>
