You know how sometimes you just know that a piece of something will remind you of a certain moment in your life? This patio is that something for me right now.

First floor patio out looking a blue and pink sky with trees lining the background. The mid ground has a black fence. There's a broom leaning against the left side of the patio wall.

This short paper by Lander and Parkin from 1966 almost achieves xkcd's goal of a wordless proof.

COUNTEREXAMPLE TO EULER'S CONJECTURE ON SUMS OF LIKE POWERS BY L. J. LANDER AND T. R. PARKIN Communicated by J. D. Swift, June 27, 1966 A direct search on the CDC 6600 yielded 27^5 + 84^5 + 110^5 + 133^5 = 144^5 as the smallest instance in which four fifth powers sum to a fifth power. This is a counterexample to a conjecture by Euler that at least n nth powers are required to sum to an nth power, n>2.

The book is perfect: It's absurd, the cover is ridiculous, and it's free, so we're not giving Amazon any money.
redditors have already pushed the book high: It's currently the 15th result when you search "Melania Trump." That's crazy. 2 days ago it wasn't even on the first page. With a little more push, we can keep this moving up the charts. We just need people to:
"Buy" the book (it's free)
Share this post and get other people to buy the book. {MORE}

Get in. We're messing up Melania's Amazon search results
This weekend, Amazon is premiering its $40 million Melania Trump documentary. It already seems to be a flop.
But we're going to take it one step further by messing up Melania's Amazon search results. Specifically, we're going to amplify the paranormal erotic thriller novel Melania: Devourer of Men so it ranks higher than her movie. {MORE}

MN Judge: "ICE has violated nearly 100 court orders."

ICE Fascists: "We're acting on orders of DHS Secretary Kristy Noem."

Kristi Noem: "Everything I've done, I've done at the direction of the president and Stephen."

Nuremberg Trials: "I was just following orders is not a valid defense to criminal behavior.'

Abolish ICE. Impeach Noem. Prosecute every illegal action by this regime.

Anything less is unacceptable.

Republicans are literally dismantling US democracy in front of us & the US media is glaringly, obviously inadequate to the task of covering it, so they all just desperately want to return to the equilibrium, where they all shit on Biden, all nod at one another, all celebrate one another's bravery.

The national press desperately misses having Biden around to beat up, so they are vowing to make the 2028 Dem primary all about Biden ... and having the gall to pretend that it's *voters* who want this.

That clip of Hannah Spencer shows a major difference between genuine grassroots politics and stage-managed BS.

Compare the stilted 'they aren't actors but they are trying to act' versus the honest humanity of the speakers.

Compare the "applaud now / cheer now" reactions of the right wing audience of a Lab/Con/LD/Refash/etc. and the crowd reactions there.

I expect attacks on:

* Her accent
* Her heritage
* Her looks / fashion / femininity

The RW press will be tearing through the image searches for her looking like an actual working person and they will probably find something that just reinforces her credentials and try to present it as negative.

It's interesting to hear lib-Bluesky discuss today's general strike, while congruently, tech-YouTube is discussing how weather-YouTube is suddenly scaring people about the weather.

Today, some folks are protesting with their wallets, while a presumably similar amount of people are stocking up on *extra* food and supplies.

This could be a coincidence, or market manipulation. Either way, maybe it's time to consider a new strategy?
