I get that Republicans love Musk for his money and his promotion of hate & violence, but surely defense contractors must have some non-partisan oversight? Musk is such an absurd security risk the way he is leveraged financially, intertwines his companies, risks the integrity of his products, is clearly anti-democratic (not to mention: anti-trans, antisemitic, racist, xenophobic, and virulently misogynic), and has a tenuous connection with reality.

#Poorneet means #tadpole 🌞
That means it's tadpole time in the Eastern #Kulin #FirstNations calendar.
During Poorneet season the swift poorneets (tadpoles) emerge, in bulk.
it's warming up, but the rain will still be around. days are longer and you hear the #Currawong birds call loudly and often.
#Myrnong, (Yam Daisy) are will be able to be eaten shortly.

Reading this summary of Ronni Salt’s debut novel, my guess is it will be quirkier and more fun than it suggests.
Pre ordering really helps authors out, makes their publisher pay attention, if you know you’re going to buy a copy why not jump in now?

I’m all in on UV github.com/astral-sh/uv . There are a few warts, but it’s replaced pyenv, pipx, and poetry for me.
