Jack Smith says Trump's claims that he won the election were not protected free speech because they were intended to target a government function.
"There is no historical analog for what President Trump did in this case."
Smith says Trump "without question" added to the danger to Mike Pence's life with his 2:24pm tweet while the Capitol was under attack.

psi: Plant Photosystem I excitation energy transfer network (2020)
Weighted directed network of the light-harvesting Photosystem Ι (PSI) of the plant Pisum sativum. The nodes represent chromophores with different identities (i.e. chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, β-carotene and derivates, lutein, violaxanthin), while edges represent FRET transfer between chromophores. The link directionality connecting nodes in the PSI network depends on the energy levels of the connected chromophores. The…

OH: I have a Home Warranty. You pay them a monthly premium, then when something breaks, you pay them a flat fee. Then the technician diagnoses the problem, and the company finds a reason why your plan doesn't cover that. Feels like American insurance in a nutshell.

It was approaching time to renew my Global Entry Membership. One of the questions required for renewal was to list the countries I’ve been to since 2020.
Each country visited had to be selected from a list. The UI was excellent. I could type a substring and the options would be limited to countries containing that substring ✅. I couldn’t find Turkey. Searched Tu, scrolled the unfiltered list no Turkey.

So much of the (commercial) web is nearly unusable on old(er) devices because of the amount of advertising crammed onto a page.

Good Morning #Canada
#HappyBirthday to Elliot Page, born February 21, 1987, in Halifax Nova Scotia. Page is a Canadian actor, producer, and activist, known for his leading roles across Canadian and American film and television, and for his outspoken work as an activist for #LGBTQ rights and against discrimination. His accolades include nominations for an Academy Award, three BAFTA Awards, two Primetime Emmy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and a SAG Award. While most of his career was performed as Ellen Page, he came out as gay in 2014 and as transgender in 2020.
Next time we try to summon the courage to defend or joyfully acknowledge a LGBTQ friend or relative, we should recognize the struggle that most experience just to find a little bit of happiness. Everyone deserves to love and be loved.

It’s been 36 years since a mass femicide occurred at École Polytechnique in Montréal.
A man shot and killed 14 women because of their sex.
Described as “violent misogyny” by the federal government,
the killings have nonetheless never officially been called femicide in Canada
despite its global recognition as one of the most vivid examples of femicide in the western world.
Women and girls continue to be killed every two days somewhere in Canada, mostly by men. …
