I wouldn't even notice it as unusual, even though it isn't my usual order. It could vary by region or profession, or maybe it's just you that notices it this acutely. In plain English emails and other narrative text, I always use "Sat Aug 31" (adding the year only when ambiguous), which is short but complete, and includes the day of the week, which is much more important to humans than the month anyway.

Saw this on Mastodon:

I guess it needs to be said again, but politico is owned by a fascist German billionaire who has repeatedly said his goal is to get trump elected, and help the far right transnational movement. He literally is on record telling people in the newsroom at politico to pray for Trump

All true. I feel like the Arlington scandal has legs, though.

They should release an album, "NOW That's What I Call Never Trump", but a better title.

Especially EVs, or especially Teslas?

When did brute force switch from being an antipattern to the preferred pattern?

So this question kind of made me go down a bit of a rabbit hole, but this really captures my feelings. https://www.rogerebert.com/features/how-we-choose-our-favorite-film-and-why-mine-is-joe-vs-the-volcano
