I love going through my replies from 2024 where I told folks that they should support the Democratic Socialists of America :dsa: against the democratic establishment, where it was their argument that this strategy would never work and is idealistic and we need to drop support for some minority group, have a “lesser evil” and “harm reduction” candidate, in order to appeal to Republicans to win.
Now, arriving in reality, all it took was actually offering an alternative, instead of just b…

"which emojis are used the least often?" - Great question, and we rarely find data on this! But luckily, we studied this at least for two corpora with German users (and admittedly only for face emojis). So: Many object or symbol emojis (from the "tail end" of the emoji list) are very, very rarely used. Overall, faces and hearts are the most frequent. Among the face emojis, we compiled the full list of usages from a huge Twitter corpus (semi-public communication, 2014-2022) and a much small WhatsApp chat corpus (private or group communication). You can find the frequencies in this table linked below (and sort by frequency by clicking on the column). The least frequent face emoji in the large corpus was the "frowning face with open mouth" 😦, which most people have never seen before. Personally, I think it's pretty ambiguous and not very useful, as there are better emojis for anything it might express. #emojis #linguistics #WorldEmojiDay

Amateur astronomer Joël Lapointe stumbled upon what he thought looked like a suspicious pit in Quebec's Côte-Nord region while he was wandering with his Google Maps cursor in 2024.
He was simply trying to plan his camping vacation when he spotted something unexpected on his screen
— what researchers recently confirmed is a previously unidentified, 390-million-year-old meteor crater.

A reminder that the obsession 50 years ago was #overpopulation — it was the scary message next to every practical environmental message about pollution, etc
Fast forward to now, and the opposite is true — no longer a case of “don’t worry, it’s just wealthy nations breed less”
In fact, environmentalism was always right about pollution — but the scary message is everything cost…

Today, I'm remembering that time on January 6, 2021 when Lindsey Graham indicated he might actually have a backbone by speaking out against the illegal coup attempt and said that Biden legitimately won the election.
It didn't stick though. He returned to his cowardly support of Turnip leading up to the 2024 election.

Nicht nur in Deutschland werden Klimagelder in Klimaschädliches umgewidmet, auch in Frankreich, wenngleich in geringerem Maßstab: Der Petrochemie-Gigant Ineos hatte sich 2024 um ca. 300 Millionen € beworben. Nachdem die Anforderungen für eine Finanzierung durch die Klimaagentur Ademe nicht erfüllt waren, wurden 2025 die Anforderungen schnell noch geändert, sodass das Geld doch fließt.

ExxonMobil’s CEO called Venezuela “uninvestable” without changes to its legal system.
The head of ConocoPhillips wanted U.S. government financing.
But Jeffery Hildebrand, a major Trump donor whose wife had been named ambassador to Costa Rica, had already seen how loyalty could be rewarded.
Even though he had no notable operations outside the U.S., he hunched toward a microphone and said in a halting voice,

Microsoft, Amazon and Google’s collective carbon emissions
have increased by nearly a fifth in the past year,
driven largely by datacentre construction.
In the financial year ending March 2026, the three tech companies emitted
119m mTCO₂e (metric tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent),
or about a third of those of France.
The previous year, they emitted roughly 101m mTCO₂e,
roughly equivalent to the 2024 emissions of Czechia.
