A chart showing how many miles you can get from using an acre of land for 1 year to produce solar energy vs using an acre of land for 1 year to produce ethanol. For solar, 1 year of production on 1 acre conservatively produces 230 MwH of electricity which converts to ~803,000 miles at 3.5 miles per KwH For ethanol, 1 year of production produces ~535 gallons of ethanol. Assuming a car gets 20 miles per gallon it will get ~15% less because ethanol is less energy dense than gasoline. That calculates to ~9500 miles

Senate Bill 236: Abortion-inducing drugs Lead author: Sen.

Pro/Con: AI can be an engine of equity — or inequity One of the strongest arguments in favor of AI's educational use, according to the Brookings report, is its ability to reach children who have been excluded from the classroom. The researchers cite Afghanistan, where girls and women have been denied access to formal, postprimary education by the Taliban.

Not on my watch. We The People run Indiana, not the bureaucrats. Take it back to the North Pole big guy. Merry Christmas, Hoosiers!” There are 4 AI generated images of the state senator beating up Santa

A plot showing how many miles a car can go powered by 1 acre solar electricity and by corn ethanol for one year of production. A car powered by the sun can go 803,586 miles while a car powered by ethanol can go 9,523 miles
You call yourself an environmental activist? You’re worried about the environmental impact of a god damn solar farm? Let’s look at what the current state of affairs has gotten. Oh would you look at that? Indiana fucking sucks when it comes to the natural environment, ranking 37th and 50th in air and water quality respectively. Let me spell this out for you: The top causes of air pollution are (1) transportation - currently this farm produces corn for ethanol which is a dirty way to move things around - and (2) coal/oil burning for electricity - I don’t think I need to explain how getting power from the sun is better for the air than burning coal, but maybe that’s being too damn generous to you idiots. The number one cause of water pollution is farm runoff - this farm grows #2 commodity dent corn that requires massive amounts of fertilizer and herbicide to grow, that shit goes in our water and makes it so that 70% of Indiana’s waterways are too dangerous to swim in. If you’re worried about losing farmland. There’s good news: this solar project will preserve the farmland - in fact it will still be used to raise sheep, which last time I checked is agriculture. Indeed it will give the land a rest from the strip mine industrial farming that’s been going on there for decades. And bonus: while doing so, it will produce 30x more energy on a per-acre basis. 1 acre of solar for a year can power an electric vehicle for over 800,000 miles. The same acre of ethanol can power a car for less than 10,000 miles. If you give a shit about the environment, you should be fighting to convert every ethanol field to solar. It’ll be better for air quality, it’ll be better for water quality, and it’ll produce more 30x more energy in the process. But you don’t give a fuck about that. You’re hiding behind your fake-ass concern for the environment. That or you’re just a fucking idiot. Either way, fuck off.

A tweet from Congressman Jim Baird on August 18, 2025 at 7:28pm.,that says, "Hoosiers are fed up with our voice being drowned by partisan gerrymandering in liberal states like Illinois. Trump won Indiana by nearly 19 points - our congressional map should reflect that. I stand with President Trump on redistricting to bring fairness back to the...." Note that Trump's win in Indiana was with 58% of the vote, and the Indiana republicans have 78% of the House congressional seats.
A video of a bearded man in a wig having a conversation with the same bearded man without a wig. The “I have one daughter” song is playing over the conversation Wig: Why do you want bike lanes and sidewalks? No one bikes or walks anywhere. No Wig: I think people don’t ride or walk because it’s not really safe and it’s hard to get places unless you have a car . They would if it were easier to get around. Wig: But no one rides or walks. So why would we spend money onbike lanes and sidewalks? No wig: I bike and walk. Plenty of others do too. I bet more would if we had safe bike lanes and sidewalks. Wig: I never see anyone biking or walking No wig: actually people do. And more would if it were safer. Wig: no one bikes and walks No wig: I don’t understand
Strava intelligence describing a workout. The actual workout was 7x 30 seconds at 415 watts + 60 seconds at 220 watts. The summary talks about a ten minute average power being high, which wasn’t the goal of the workout at all. Anyone who’s ever done interval training knows this. The AI is not helpful at all.

A response to Heritage Foundation’s bullshit survey where they ask leading questions to trick people into getting mad and donating. They don’t care about the opinion of their readers or supporters; they think they’re a bunch of rubes that are to be fleeced. Hugh Janus, who responded to the survey in the screenshot, answered their bullshit questions correctly. The text of it is: Do you believe the federal government needs to be responsible with taxpayer dollars and not spend more money than it takes in? Hugh says “No” Do you support significant cuts to the federal budget to eliminate budget deficits and pay down the national debt? Hugh says “No” Do you believe The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will be an effective tool for eliminating excessive government spending? Hugh says “No”

Yarvin: What happens in this cabinet meeting is that Frances Perkins, who’s the secretary of labor, is like, Here, I have a list of the projects that we’re going to do. F.D.R. personally takes this list, looks at the projects in New York and is like, This is crap. Then at the end of the thing, everybody agrees that the bill would be fixed and then passed through Congress. This is F.D.R. acting like a C.E.O. So, was F.D.R. a dictator? I don’t know. What I know is that Americans of all stripes basically revere F.D.R., and F.D.R. ran the New Deal like a start-up. Interviewer: The point you’re trying to make is that we have had something like a dictator in the past, and therefore it’s not something to be afraid of now. Is that right? Yarvin: Yeah.
