So yeah. That’s all. I just want to acknowledge this and openly commit to being better. I think there’s so much awesome stuff that we can do as a community, so much more of a positive difference we can make, and so much more fun that we can have together. But not if I’m dragging us down. Only if I’m lifting us up.

Earlier someone mentioned that they opened their timeline and something I had posted was the only negative thing there. What a thing to be: the only negative thing on someone’s timeline. Can you imagine? This person was in a happy mood and was like “hey I’m gonna see what’s happening online” and there I was, doing my thing, messing things up.

I *want* to say that’s not who I am. But, let’s be real: that’s who I’ve been for 13 months now.

So: no more. That has to change.

The thing is, I made this bad mood my entire personality. I didn’t set out to do that, but I let it happen. I prioritized my own anger in a stupid and unfair way. It was lazy. I didn’t manage my feelings correctly, and others had to deal with it.

I might have said some harsh things to you. Or about you. Or about your friends. Or about your community. I don’t regret my views, or anything that I said, to be clear. But in some cases I regret how I said those things. And how often.

Hi, my name is Adam and I’ve spent the past 13 months in a really bad mood. You might have noticed. Maybe you wanted to say something about it but thought I might get mad at you. I wouldn’t blame you for that. Maybe you became quietly upset with me and walked away. Wouldn’t blame you for that, either. Maybe you’ve just been hoping I’d snap out of it. If so, I’ve been disappointing you for while now.

I’m working on it. Really. You deserve better from me. I’m sorry.

Some of the problems Trump has created are fixable. They are painful for many people, and clearly so morally wrong, illegal, or just plain dumb that they will have to be reversed, with time. And then there are the disastrous, long-term mistakes like bombing Iran that we’ll be stuck with for decades.

In the next weeks I anticipate we will hear a lot about Iran's ~400 kg of 60% enriched uranium, which they will probably refer to using the more scary phrase "Highly Enriched Uranium" or HEU.

They will talk about how it is "out of control," which means the IAEA doesn't have tracking of it.

This COULD be enriched to weapons-grade, and used for a bomb, IF they have an enrichment facility to do it in. That's a very very VERY big if. There's a very high chance their only three facilities were just destroyed.

I think the odds of having a secret facility outside the knowledge of the international community is low. Not only are they hard to hide, but they're almost impossible to build without raising flags. As it turns out, a lot of centrifuges require very specialized equipment and parts. You can't build a nuclear facility in secret very easily.

This is RIPE for fear mongering. I'm not a non-proliferation expert but I'll do my best to keep folks informed, as well as boost any voices or sources I find on the matter. As always happy to field questions.

Today in particular I’m just so glad Merrick Garland prioritized “norms” over the U.S. constitution, our republic, and any hope of saving our democracy. Otherwise we might have run the risk of a functioning government.

I hope Garland knows that—along with Mitch—cowardice will always be his legacy.
