The reason why I'm voting for @spencerpratt is simple. My two children are teenagers. For their entire lives, I've driven them past homeless encampments in West LA, Skid Row in DTLA, and tent cities in the valley. They've seen homeless people poop on the shoulder of the 405 freeway and people shooting up in front of houses. Like a broken record, I repeat the same story over and over. "It wasn't like this when I was growing up in the 80s and 90s." But for my kids, this is their "normal." If it got this bad from my time to their time, then what is it going to be like when they're my age?

I said it before and I’ll say it again:
I don’t care if the Black Plague,
Hantavirus, Ebola, Monkeypox, and whatever new bullshit they cook up in a lab all come back at the same time…
I am never masking up again.
I am never locking down again.
I am never living in fear again.
You can scream, shame, and doompost all you want.
My face stays uncovered, my life stays open, and my middle finger stays ready.
We did the fear thing already.
Hard pass. 😂

“No man has ever gotten away with more or given less to his country than Trump. It is never too late to change that: holding him accountable is no longer just about ending one awful criminal’s lifelong spree, it is about saving our republic and honoring those who gave all for this once great land.
DJT is not only not worthy of the office he holds, he isn’t fit to shine the shoes of those he punishes and attacks with his rhetoric and awful policies. The only thing substantial about Donald Trump is how much damage he has caused.
Which of course is not by accident, but the strategy behind his rise to power. He represents what a few who have exorbitant wealth would prefer in place of democracy.
An oligarchy run by bizarre tech bros and tasteless billionaire bozos like Jeff Bezos who looks like he shops in a Caesar’s Palace clothing boutique; he is an overstitched back pocket on Vegas jeans come to life.
The sort of paunchy, middle-aged freak that bedazzled ‘Von Dutch’ t-shirts and Chrome Hearts jewelry were created for - so their rubber-lipped, face-tuned companions could say they look virile in a hotel elevator mirror. The type of wannabe-cool billionaires who have their eyebrows sculpted and use the term ‘manscaped’ unironically.
We can take back this country from his ilk, but will only do so when we recognize who is really pulling the strings. Greed is motivating both this Cabinet and the Wall Street brokers making a fortune from this calamity.” open.substack.com/pub/noelcasler…

We uncovered something far bigger than I ever expected. After seeing coordinated false attacks against the Utah data center project, we brought in an advanced data science team to trace where the content was coming from and the results were shocking. What we found led back to organized networks, political activist groups, and funding trails tied to massive international entities. We dug through IRS 990 filings, tracked IP data from around the world, and uncovered what appears to be a coordinated campaign targeting energy and data center projects across multiple regions.
I shared 90 pages of evidence with federal law enforcement and raised concerns directly with contacts at the White House. This isn’t speculation. The filings, funding records, dates, and connections are documented. There’s a coordinated PR war happening around energy infrastructure and data centers, and we’re not going to ignore it.

SpaceX put 10 megawatts of solar power in space across 3000 gen1 Starlink satellites, then they put 100 megawatts in space with 7000 gen2. soon, they're doing 1000 megawatts with gen3. SpaceX is basically 10xing space solar every few years!

Peter Thiel's gambling app is trying to make people mad at Pope Leo with disinformation because he's cautioning against AI accelerationism. Genuinely hope a future Dem administration takes a sledgehammer to this industry. The tech right is an absolute blight on humanity

@airgradienthq is releasing a new portable open source air quality monitor in June. CO2, Particulates and TVOC. And built in GPS to track *where* pollution is bad.
199.00 pre-order price - not including shipping and customs which are calculated at checkout, which for me would come out to $248.

I'm pretty interested in this form factor and feature set, and unlike the AtmoTube Pro 2, this has a built in e-Ink display so you can read the results without needing a cell phone.
I've not owned any AirGradient products so I can't yet vouch for them personally, but I've been a fan of the information on their website for a while and I really like the idea of their open source designs.

The Pope rightly warns that AI must serve human dignity, not become a tool of domination or exclusion.
But if we hand governments sweeping power over AI development in the name of safety, how do we prevent it from being used to censor, surveil, and control citizens — as Orwell foretold in 1984?
This is the real alignment problem.
“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes.” Who will guard the guardians?
“Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
The oldest questions of human nature and authority don’t disappear in the AI age. They become newly relevant.

I filed with FEC for the 2028 House race.
This allows me to raise funds to continue my political operations supporting my position as a current office holder and as a potential candidate for federal office.
I haven’t made a final decision about which office to seek, if I run.
