If you think only those 8 Democrats in the Senate who actually cast votes to cave supported the Schumer plan, you’re hopelessly naive.
And if you think •all• the Democrats in the Senate (or everywhere) secretly supported it, wow are you ever naive.
And if you think elected officials of any stripe are the ones who are going to save us…hoo boy.

Submitted an IPv6 ticket to my ISP, #youfibre - as far as I can tell inbound packets are fine, outbound IPv6 don't seem to get far.
They were working a few weeks ago when I started doing IPv6 config on my router; but there's plenty of other people saying they've had IPv6 problems with them intemittently.
Finally an RGB image of comet #3IATLAS from images taken by #GeminiNorth during the 26 November #shadowTheScientists session: https://noirlab.edu/public/news/noirlab2532/ - the coma has become bluer due to more gas emission. Also published today: an X-ray image by XMM-Newton at https://www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2025/12/XMM-Newton_sees_comet_3I_ATLAS_in_X-ray_light with explanations in http://www.cbat.eps.harvard.edu/iau/cbet/005600/CBET005646.txt which also contains more 3I news.
Meanwhile the paper https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2515-5172/ae2915 claims an upper limit for 3I's nucleus diameter of only some 750 meters from the measured non-gravitational acceleration (NGA) parameters: that would be waaay more stringent than the 5.6 km upper limit from early Hubble observations reported in https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2041-8213/adf8d8 (where also a lower limit of 440 meters is stated).
Is 2025 season a failure if Dallas Cowboys don't make NFL playoffs? https://www.si.com/nfl/cowboys/onsi/news/is-2025-season-failure-if-dallas-cowboys-dont-make-nfl-playoffs
The joy and promise of the Internet is that marginal and marginalized people can find each other
and form communities.
If you're the only goth klezmer fan in Toad Suck, Arkansas, you can find others.
If you're het up about a neglected social issue, you can find others.
The trouble is a lot of communities used to be marginalized for extremely good reasons,
and it probably would have been better if they stayed that way.

Recently I spoke with a woman in a shop about hiking and she said that she's not experienced in the mountains and thus doesn't dare to go alone.
I wondered if such people would feel better if they'd go for example with me (or just any other person who is a bit into the topic). No need to talk, no social obligations, just walking together a route, no sports event, nothing extreme. 🤔 Not as a guided tour, just walking.
And if I would do that.
