I visited the tomato souped painting a few days after and it was fine. Iā€™m still reeling over the 20- and 24-month long sentences that the activists got.

A person wearing a gray shirt with a tomato graphic stands in front of Vincent van Gogh's famous "Sunflowers" painting. The wall behind them is painted gray, and there are museum labels nearby.

It never ceases to amaze me that you could use a motor vehicle with no license plates to kill another person while you use a mobile phone and the maximum penalty is $1000 and one year in prison. You get a bigger fine and more time in the UK for throwing soup on a painting.

Gov. Gavin Newsom vetoed a bill that required new cars to beep at drivers if they exceed the speed limit. šŸ¤¬ The law would have impacted all new cars in the U.S. since the California market is so large that manufacturers would just make all their vehicles comply.

Undoubtedly. Lol.

Email from Eric Adams, criminal (allegedly) mayor of NYC:

Good afternoon New Yorkers,
Undoubtedly, you have now heard the news about Thursday's indictment. Let me be clear, I know I've done nothing wrong, and I am committed to continuing to fight on behalf of New Yorkers as your mayor.
From here, my attorneys will take care of the case so I can take care of this city. My day-to-day will not change because I will continue to do deliver for you as your mayor, and so will the 300,000+ employees of our city government who deliver essential services to our city's residents that make New Yorkers' lives safer, easier, and more affordable.

Now that they have fixed my affiliation, here's the short opinion again. "We must focus on eliminating carbon emissions as though CDR wasnā€™t an option. At the same time, we must fully fund CDR research as though we still want to keep global warming below 1.5Ā°C." www.cell.com/one-earth/fu...

New study led by PhD candidate Li Na, co-advised by Sebastian Sippel, shows that the doubling of the sensitivity of CO2 growth rate to tropical temperature can be explained by internal climate variability. The trend is explained by the impact of few but strong El-NiƱo events on land C sink variance

I visited both Bloomberg and NY Times this past week. @kendrawrites.bsky.social told me that Bloomberg has better snacks and itā€™s not even close. So if youā€™re having an interview with a Times reporter, try to have it at Bloomberg. The Times does have cool Eames chairs and they let me bring a bike.

An orange Brompton bicycle is parked beside a round white table with wooden Eames chairs in a space with red carpeting.

Idea: Twitter bot that replies to mentions with ā€œDavid is on Blueskyā€.

The image shows two tweets. The first tweet is from Graeme Smyth asking about understanding the potential for mCDR, mentioning David Ho. The second tweet is from David Ho stating that he is on Bluesky.
