  4. I never heard back after sending this to the family, but curious how close that flash of green on satellite was to the recovery location. i.e. if it was the hiker or just a satellite artifact.

  5. Evacuation for a wildfire near Lone Pine, California issued about an hour ago.

  7. LA Times: A young hiker has been missing for a month on Mt. Whitney. Are time and hope running out?

    "...Joseph Brambila vanished on Mt. Whitney a month ago. One of the last hikers to see the 21-year-old said he seemed poised to glissade down a snowy slope — without the equipment experienced climbers use...."

  11. Whitney’s Best Album Yet: Indie-Pop Duo Drops Affecting New LP “Small Talk”

    Photo by Alexa Viscius

    Whitney has released their fourth and “unequivocally best and most affecting” album, Small Talk, today via AWAL. After a decade of being roommates and bandmates, Julien Ehrlich and Max Kakacek recorded the 11 incandescent songs themselves, creating instant classic Whitney songs while also demonstrating significant evolution. The release kicks off a world tour, including a winter EU/UK headline run starting February 6, 2026, in Paris.

    Ehrlich gesagt weder noch.
    Die Musik war so lala, sie selbst war stehts darum bemüht uns allen klarzumachen welch tolle Stimme sie hat.
    Umramt wurde das von den unglaublich nervigen Problemchen einer Diva, die sich im Grunde alles selbst eingebrockt hat.

    Es gibt so viele wirklich gute Sängerinnen, die wirklich inspirierend sind.
    Aber die sind wohl nicht #drama genug.

  15. Tangential: I still have the first CD I ever bought with my own money: soundtrack of THE BODYGUARD (1992). #WHITNEY. 🔥♥️🖤💜🔥 (Gone too soon. 😭😭😭)

    First CD I ever owned was MARIAH CAREY: MTV UNPLUGGED. My opera singer dad heard "Emotions" on the radio, and he wanted to listen more closely to that incredible "freak voice." (This was a compliment.) When he was done, he gave me the CD. I still have that one, too.

  16. The Inyo County Sheriff’s Office and Inyo County Search & Rescue are seeking assistance from climbers or hikers who were on the Whitney Trail or Mountaineer’s Route between December 30, 2024, and January 2, 2025.

  17. "Carrying excess water weight without hydrating sufficiently and lacking knowledge about water filtration options.

    Not seeking assistance from other hikers. Although others offered to help with their gear, the hikers declined, and could have also considered hiking down and arranging for gear retrieval later by a paid guide service.

    What went well

    Staying together instead of splitting up.

    Stopping when exhausted, rather than continuing and making the rescue more complicated." 3/x

  18. "Inyo SAR mobilized at 10:00AM and reached the hikers by 1:40PM. After resting in the sun and allowing their shoes to dry, the hikers felt well enough to begin their descent. Accompanied by SAR, they reached the trailhead by 3:15PM. We appreciate the assistance of Good Samaritan Bridget, who helped carry some of the hikers' gear." 2/x #SearchAndRescue #SAR #hiking #Whitney

  19. Much to the consternation of his Federalist Society colleagues,
    #Leonard #Leo had also begun
    🔥cannibalizing the organization’s own deep-pocketed donors to help finance some of his more personal initiatives
    — and those of his friends.

    In 2010, he co-founded along with Ginni Thomas an organization called "Liberty Central";

    Thomas was the wife of his good friend Justice Clarence Thomas and they used a $500,000 donation from Dallas real estate billionaire #Harlan #Crow,
    also a donor to the Federalist Society.

    The group billed itself as “America’s Public Square,” promising to preserve freedom and reaffirm the core principles of the Founding Fathers.

    The following year, he joined the board of "Chicago Freedom Trust", which had been set up by manufacturing billionaire #Barre #Seid as a pass-through
    to anonymously channel funds to initiatives he wished to support
    and to take advantage of the recent #Citizens #United ruling shielding big donors from disclosure.

    Leo met Seid through #Eugene #Meyer, president of the Federalist Society, who envisioned the wealthy manufacturing tycoon as a potential donor to the law society.

    Instead, Leo cultivated him as a funder of his own dark-money network.

    The move brought Leo into contact with other central figures of the conservative dark-money world
    — like #Whitney #Ball and #Adam #Meyerson,
    the main actors behind #DonorsTrust, who were responsible for anonymously funneling hundreds of millions of dollars to various conservative grassroot groups,
    including some linked to the far right.

    He also used his influence there to divert funds to Opus Dei, with the pass-through soon becoming a regular donor to the Oakcrest School.

    As Leo’s access to the world of dark money grew, his Opus Dei friends the Corkerys became critical as a front for the tens of millions of dollars streaming through Leo’s hidden network of nonprofits.

    Neil and Ann had provided crucial cover for him during the campaign to secure the confirmations of John Roberts and Samuel Alito in 2005,

    hiding the hundreds of thousands of dollars spent to influence public opinion.

    As more dark money poured in starting in 2010, they began to do the same again through various nonprofits such as the "Wellspring Committee" and the "Judicial Crisis Network".

    Their importance only grew following Scalia’s death,
    as Leo pumped his network for ever larger sums.

    In the weeks after Scalia’s death, the Corkerys began opening the purse strings in what would eventually become a 🔥$17 million campaign to stop Obama from replacing Scalia
    and instead ensure a reliable conservative filled the vacancy.

    It was just the start.

    Over the next five years, Leo and the Corkerys would oversee the transfer of almost 🔥$600 million of dark money to right-wing causes.

    Their hidden ecosystem would eventually enable a conservative takeover of the Supreme Court that would disassemble
    hard-won civil rights and turn back the clock on issues close to their hearts
    — on abortion,
    on affirmative action,
    and on vast swathes of what they saw as a progressive agenda.
