Two nights of 3:45am alarms, blazing full moon lighting the sky like daytime and washing out the light of everything else, comet included. Then two days of post-processing battles, as comet processing is maddeningly tricky.
But I finally pulled it off: here is C/2025 A6 Lemmon. 🔭

Disgusting to see a President take election advice from Putin. Hands off our mail in ballots!

This right here. But repositioning, stop spending. You have all the power. Trump can have billionaires bribe him, but we can stop spending and shareholders will right the ship.
The rich don’t spend the money they have, and the poor don’t have money to spend.
This is a problem when 70% of the economy relies on consumer spending.
Closing our nation's wealth gap isn’t just the right thing to do. It’s essential to save our economy. https://youtu.be/S6dCh48b4oI?feature=shared

This really pisses me off. Ms. Easterly was the Director of CISA and an unbelievable fit for that role. She humanized cybersecurity and moved a lot of needles. To have her appointment at West Point rescinded at the direction of trump is yet another national embarrassment.

Start your morning with two minutes of the testimony of Samuel Garcia, an average American who drove 3 hours to speak truth to power to the Texas legislature. Let’s decide that we are all Samuel Garcia. Get in their faces and make them listen. Mr. Garcia is a great American.

Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome.
