Where are the materials from?
A cow.
That is what DeepL suggested when I asked, but I find it a bit weak. Fluffy is softer than a sponge (esponja: sponge, esponjosa/esponjoso: spongey). Fluffy feels more like feathers than sponges. Gustibus not est disputandum and so on, but I don’t like it.
I thought the Spanish phrase for “Fluffy” was Gabriel Iglesias.
Or “fluffig”, though I think we stole that word from the English “fluffy”.

We’re going to open everything. America is open for business!
Meanwhile, Cooper Freeman, the Alaska director of the environmental group the Centre for Biological Diversity, said, “This is a huge embarrassment for Trump’s Alaska fossil fuel fantasy.”
I sometimes wonder, when I see a statement like this, if the leader understands his job is to use a rare public opportunity to continue hammering home key messaging (in this case, reinforcing the risks by saying something along the lines of oil producers recognizing the financial non-viability of that kind of drilling), rather than engaging in his inner teenager.
Just a side thought, carry on.
Oh, it will be viable in a year or two when gas hits 8 bucks a gallon. But the start up costs of throwing a hundred oil rigs up is a problem. Of course this administration does not understand that.
Also, the way Trump keeps changing the economic landscape throwing around tariffs, starting wars and so on at whim greatly discourages any sort of long term economic planning and investment in or involving the US. With the best will in the world no company can make a realistic plan or properly gauge the risks & rewards when a lunatic keeps changing the rules on them.
Yup you hunker down. Which I wish DJT would have done with his 600 mil inheritance. But no, he had to hurt people.
Kid Rock is whining about the settlement between DOJ and Ticketmaster/Live Nation:
Rock, a longtime Trump loyalist, expressed bewilderment that the DOJ refused to take the case to trial. “I don’t understand why they would negotiate a settlement,” he told New York Times columnist Noah Shachtman. “Why not just let it see its course? Let’s see what 12 people decide.”
Later, people were shocked to learn that Kid Rock is not, in fact, a legal professional.
The surly, take no prisoners schtick is funny when Judge Judy does it; with this drunken harpy, not so much.
Loomer creates her own comeuppance.
Hey, maybe she likes the place so much because it houses a Muslim, a deceased Muslim, a deceased Muslim woman.
To be fair, having been there, it is incredibly beautiful.
I went really early in the morning, because it was Eid al-Fitr, and the local Muzzein really bellowed out the call to prayer at dawn, waking me up. So I got to see it without the other tourists for an hour or so, which increased the experience ten-fold.
I did not really blame “the Muslims” for that. I actually tried to find which mosque it was to thank the Imam, but there are several around, and a language barrier, and a cultural barrier to overcome so I never did.
(Now I write that, I feel real regret again for not thanking him)
Denver Crosswalk Buttons Hacked To Blast Anti-Trump Messages
“I loved it, it made my day, it was absolutely what I wanted to hear,” one resident told local news.
The audio signals of two crosswalks in Denver were hacked to send anti-Donald Trump messages, reported multiple media outlets.
“The walk signal is on, fuck Trump,” the robotic voice could be heard saying in videos that went viral online over the weekend.
That is hilarious!
According to the story, somebody didn’t change the factory default password.
This is why you always change the default password. This is also why maybe it’s not such a big deal if you don’t bother.
