It's insane that any women considered Trump for any reason other than women's rights. Really how many women thought "I don't mind that he wants to control my body, but is he good for the economy?"

Goofy shit.

Huh TIL:

Several species of sharks, including basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus) and great white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias), have been observed breaching, which is defined as leaping out of the water, often in pursuit of prey or as a form of communication.

"No longer useful" according the company, as it doesn't make them money anymore.

They've already done this repeatedly, I'm quite surprised any Ukrainian is surrendering. Truly tragic.

Science is indistinguishable from magic, if you don't care to learn how science works.

Theodore Roosevelt’s “Citizenship in a Republic” speech, delivered at the Sorbonne in Paris on April 23, 1910, is popularly known as “The Man in the Arena.” In this speech, Roosevelt emphasizes the importance of individual action and effort over criticism and spectatorship. He argues that:

  • It is not the critic who counts, but the person who takes action, faces challenges, and strives to achieve great things.
  • The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, not to those who merely observe from the sidelines.
  • Those who dare to take risks, make mistakes, and persevere despite setbacks are worthy of respect, even if they fail.
  • In contrast, cynics and critics who never attempt to achieve greatness themselves are weak and unworthy of respect.
  • True greatness comes from striving valiantly, knowing great enthusiasms and devotions, and spending oneself in a worthy cause.

Roosevelt’s speech encourages individuals to take an active role in shaping their communities and the world, rather than simply criticizing others from a distance. It celebrates the virtues of courage, perseverance, and dedication, and serves as a powerful call to action for those who seek to make a positive impact.
