In March, we wrote about how Trump's halting of a massive Agent Orange cleanup in Vietnam puts hundreds of thousands at risk.
In May, we obtained exclusive records showing how cuts to humanitarian aid have led to violence and instability in Africa and the Middle East while undermining anti-terrorism initiatives

I asked AI to design a challenge coin* for the U.S. Marines for their campaign in Los Angeles against the American people.
Here’s what it suggests. Are you few the proud yet?
*medallion recognizing membership/achievement/boost morale, often collected or exchanged.

The image shows two sides of a proposed U.S. Marine Corps challenge coin. The front side of the coin features a soldier in full gear standing over a person about to stomp on the person’s face as the person is lying on the ground holding a sign that reads "FREE SPEECH." The text around the edge of the coin reads "OPERATION DOMESTIC SILENCE" at the top and "HONOR, COURAGE, COMPLIANCE" at the bottom. The back side of the coin displays a scroll of the U.S. Constitution with the text "We the Peopl…

Foma FOMAPAN 400 Action (FF) 🕊️ English alt text: A detailed fountain featuring two winged angel-like figures sitting back-to-back on a sculptural base.

It's tough. It's brilliant and intimate. It's embarrassing as a man and as society when she writes brutally honest about abuse and racism and sexism and many other atrocities.
She's got an incredible talent to put in words what she has endured.

Kickstarted a credit-card-sized dice replacement.
For IRL D&D it was fine, but dials spin forever. Made dice tray pointless, while less satisfying. Even though I choose yellow text on black, hard for me to see in mood-lit basement on table
For Shadowrun, 6D6 is embarrassingly insufficient, given I regularly roll 14D6. The VTT roller is far better (since it does the math on pools and successes).
But they’re sturdy and hefty! Which means my mini metal dice are lighter an…

A thick black metal card with 6 individual dials, each representing a D4, D6, D8, D10, D12, and D20, as represented in tiny yellow text. The card sits in a small dice tray on a white table next to a hand-drawn map and a dice box holding a full set of glittery pink fantasy dice.
A thick metal card in sparkly purple or green, depending on the angle, with 6 dials, each representing a D6 with tiny white text. It’s in my hand held up in front of a computer screen showing cyberpunk character art, diagnostics, and game notes.

Solar cells on cattle holding pens seems like a great idea! Probably tons of buildings and farms that would be fine with solar cells on top.
I'm no (food) scientist but I am a lot more confident that it doesn't pose a risk to the food source. But I'm less confident of growing crops under solar cells or solar cells floating on aquatic farms. Likely need significant maintenance over the years to prevent leaching and it's always hard for politicians to fix old instead of …

Workers tend to herbs grown beneath solar panels in a photovoltaic plantation in Lihua, Lianyungang, Jiangsu province, China, on July 21, 2024.
Cattle are kept in pens beneath solar-panel arrays at an agrivoltaic farm in Mengcheng County, Bozhou, Anhui province, China, on December 23, 2023.
Floating solar panels stretch across an aquatic farm built on land that subsided after extensive coal mining, in Suixi County, Anhui province, China, on April 28, 2025.

Andriy Zagorodnyuk, a former Ukrainian defence minister, said “an acceptable armistice may never formally arrive” and that Kyiv should formulate “a revised theory of victory” – which accepts that the Kremlin considers itself engaged in a forever war against its smaller neighbour.
The former minister describes the new approach as “strategic neutralisation”, a permanent and dynamic military effort to ensure that Russia’s forces cannot advance and that Moscow becomes “operationally incapab…

Ukraine must get ready for future in which there is no ceasefire with Russia
Recognising Putin is not serious about peace is first step towards ‘strategic neutralisation’ proposed by ex-minister

British police have arrested hundreds of protestors for holding up signs saying “I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action” But they have arrested zero — zero — dual nationals who have participated in the actual genocide.
