This is a good analogy. Very useful in carefully controlled settings for specific usages, but unfortunately being widely inserted into everything and used without training or PPE and poisoning a lot of things and people and we’re going to pay a tonne of money to remove it safely in the future

Screenshot of an X post by Senator Tom Cotton saying Iran has been an imminent threat to the United States for 47 years and that the president was right to act. Below is a Fox News segment with Cotton speaking while footage labeled “U.S. Central Command – Unclassified” shows a strike.

“Imminent.” You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Nothing that happens in this war matters more than the fact this is the worst violation of the Constitution in U.S. history, an illegal war crime

Unless Congress impeaches Trump this weekend, and it won’t, then we are a dictatorship, full stop

Over the river and through the woods to fungus-resistant chestnut trees and miniforests we go. 🎶🌳

Scientists are creating hybrids to increase the chestnut tree population. Plus, communities are using the Miyawaki method to plant miniforests.
