France's Nuclear agency #IRSN praises #POTRBLOG's coverage of #DOE's #WIPP #Nuclear #Disaster as
'filling an institutional vacuum that revealed facts that turned out retrospectively sometimes very correct, available at the right time'

@ShawnRyan762 "He was a Hero at Ruby Ridge" (4:24), that's the guy Shawn Ryan should interview next

... to a work being published under the same title (but not author) as the thing being rebutted.

But the funniest line in the article is:

“Springer Nature is nevertheless still selling the empty PDF for $39.95.”

-According to the manifesto, the killer was a communist and he used a commie SKS
-The police officer who was killed was a muslim named Mohammed

You really couldn't make this shit up if you tried...

@Mrgunsngear It’s easy to be sympathetic toward the cops trapped in this tense situation……. until you realize they’d ensure you never saw daylight again if you made the same mistake.

@CharlestonArchi This eyesore of a federal courthouse won architecture awards. Everyone just mocks it as "The Borg Cube" locally though. It used to sit right outside my office window. Not a great view for those 2 years. . . .

Elon Musk reveals that SpaceX was forced to strap a seal to a board and put headphones on it to test sonic boom sounds

"We were forced to kidnap a seal, strap it to a board, put headphones on the seal, and play sonic boom sounds to it to see if it would be distressed. This is an actual thing that happened. This is actually real. I have pictures."

Lex Fridman: "I would love to see this."

Elon Musk: "Yeah. I mean, sorry, there's a seal with headphones. Yes, it's a seal with headphones strapped to a board. And the amazing part is how calm the seal was."

Lex Fridman: "Because if I was a seal, I'd be like, this is the end. They're definitely going to eat me. How will the seal, when the seal goes back to other seal friends, how are they going to explain that?"

Elon Musk: "They're never going to believe them. It's sort of like getting kidnapped by aliens and getting an anal probe. You come back and say I swear to god I got kidnapped by aliens and your seal buddies are never going to believe him. And by the way we had to do it twice."

Lex Fridman: "They let him go twice? You had to catch the same seal?"

Elon Musk: "Well no, different seal."

US Marines Boxing Smoker on Okinawa (June 17, 1945) 🇺🇸🥊

During a brief lull in the brutal fighting, U.S. Marines set up a makeshift ring under the Okinawan sun for a boxing smoker.

Crude ring, heavy gloves, no headgear. Just hard-fought bouts and loud cheers from Marines trying to forget the war for a moment and find a sense of normalcy amid one of the bloodiest battles of the Pacific War.

@DravenInFlorida @SaysSimulation Knew an Agricultural Grad from Auburn who started a chicken farm

He bought 500 baby chicks and planted them all head down, they all died

He bought 500 more baby chicks and planted them all head up, they all died

He sought help from his Agronomy prof who suggested a soil sample

"Influencer" Combak KidBoe films himself violently attacking a random white man at a bus stop yesterday as he apparently thought the man had something to do with the Karmelo Anthony jury selection process (he didn't).

Sure would be a shame if he was arrested and punished to the maximum extent of the law. A shame I say...

This takes place during the Soviet Union's hegemony.

Wlodek decides to take his carefully hoarded money from his mattress and deposit it in the bank. He strides in.

Wlodek: "I must be sure my 50 zlotys are safe. What happens if the bank is robbed?"

Banker: "No worry. The main branch in Warsaw covers the loss."

Wlodek: "But what if the whole bank, and all its branches, goes bust? I know this can happen."

Banker: "No worry. The Polish Central Bank guarantees us."

Wlodek: "But what if the Polish Central Bank also goes bust?"

Banker: "Well, it's not likely, but in that case our treaty with the Soviet Union means that THEY would cover the losses."

Wlodek: "Yes ... but what if the Soviet Union itself goes bust?"

Banker: <sighs and leans forward> "Look, wouldn't that be WORTH 50 zlotys?"

On D-Day, June 6, 1944, 19-year-old Coast Guard Gunner’s Mate Frank DeVita manned a Higgins boat in the first wave at Omaha Beach. He made 15 trips ferrying troops in and bringing out the wounded and dead over 18 brutal hours.

In one moment that haunted him: A soldier’s helmet blown off by machine gun fire, part of his brain gone. The young man lay dying at Frank’s feet, crying “help me.”

No morphine. All Frank could do was hold his hand, start the Lord’s Prayer, and let him know he wasn’t alone as he passed.
Frank kept the horror inside for 70 years, then spoke for the brothers who never made it home. He passed in 2022 at 96.

This is the Greatest Generation. Real men. Real sacrifice. We remember. 🇺🇸
