Death toll in Texas floods rises to at least 27 as search continues for many missing, officials say
Crews searched through the dark early Saturday for two dozen children from a girls' camp and many others who were still missing after a wall of water rushed down a river in the Texas Hill Country during a powerful storm.PBS News
You know what I'd like? A cable labeling standard that requires the transmission and power protocols to be on the body of the connector or cable length.
So I dont have to spend 2 days trying to figure out that my PS5 wont send 4k to my tv via receiver because the HDMI isnt 2.0
IT IS NOT REASONABLE TO HAVE A SPEC SHEET AVAILABLE FOR A CABLE. PUT THAT INFO ON THE GODDAMN CABLE.
And the labeling “standards” for the ports suck. How is anyone going to read these when they are a 1/4” long and 1/8” high stamped in plastic on the back of a computer?

Many professed concerns from the right about Israel or antisemitism are expressions of American identity politics and nativism
-- more than they are statements of genuine concern for the safety and well-being of minorities.

If Not Now, When? Contextualizing the White Supremacist Threat to Muslims and Jews
Much ink has been spilled in recent months debating comments by U.S. Representatives Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) regarding Israel. People have argued, sometimes in good faith, that they used antisemitic tropes, unintentionally or not.Akiva Malamet (Liberal Currents)
Bright Visitor in the Canopy
This bird dropped in briefly this morning while Charlie and I were outside, sipping coffee and watching the feeder drama unfold. I believe it’s a juvenile Baltimore Oriole (Icterus galbula), though it could also be an Orchard Oriole (Icterus spurius). Honestly, I’m hoping for the latter—I don’t have a photo of one yet. But Merlin lists Baltimore as its first choice and Orchard as a close second. Copilot agrees: the evidence leans toward Baltimore.

in reply to partizan • • •A yellow ceramic mug is filled with dark brown tea, with a tea bag partially submerged in the liquid. The tea bag is made of a light brown, semi-transparent material, with a darker brown tea leaf visible inside. The mug is placed on a white surface, possibly a table or countertop, with a slight reflection visible on the mug's surface. The handle of the mug is on the right side, and the tea bag is positioned on the left side of the mug, with the string tied at the top. The background is plain and white, providing a simple and clean setting for the mug and tea.
