The Third Reich framed almost all of its escalation steps as:

-law enforcement

-national security

-restoring order

-protecting the homeland

-removing “illegitimate” persons

-clarifying citizenship

-border integrity

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

Just an absolutely gutting essay by Tatiana Schlossberg, a writer, mother of two young children, and cousin of RFK Jr who is dying of leukemia.

As I spent more and more of my life under the care of doctors, nurses, and researchers striving to improve the lives of others, I watched as Bobby cut nearly a half billion dollars for research into mRNA vaccines, technology that could be used against certain cancers; slashed billions in funding from the National Institutes of Health, the world's largest sponsor of medical research; and threatened to oust the panel of medical experts charged with recommending preventive cancer screenings. Hundreds of N.I.H. grants and clinical trials were cancelled, affecting thousands of patients. I worried about funding for leukemia and bone-marrow research at Memorial Sloan Kettering. I worried about the trials that were my only shot at remission. Early in my illness, when I

A world without transgender people has never existed and never will.

To all transgender people out there: You are not alone.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance - a day to remember members of the trans community who have died or been killed because of who they are.

Trans people in the UK are feeling uncertainty & fear. We must stand up for trans people & their right to live free from prejudice & hate.

i think if you want to have those disgusting LED headlights on your car, you should have to do a test where they blast you point blank with your own headlights and then you have 15 seconds to successfully complete some sort of vision-based task, and if you can't do it they push your car off a cliff

Joke of the day from Moscow: Russia tried to unveil its first humanoid AI robot, Aidol. Key word: tried. The robot collapsed during its debut, forcing organizers to cut the presentation short. Their rushed attempt to lift the prop only made things worse.

TW: Deconstruction

There was this way to believe in Jesus that involved "giving your pain to Jesus"

I used it as a sort of emotional bypassing mechanism. I didn't have to deal with it. It was already defeated at Calvary.

Niche joke: So, if you're telling me the universe goes on infinitely in space, and the chance of a line stretched across the universe touching no planets approaches 0, are you saying it's... rocks all the way down?

This joke will not be explained.

Apparently 15 years in Louisiana is sufficient to feel deeply offended hearing an author write Southerners as saying things like "he bought me a crawdad."

In another part of the world, people doggedly pursue beauty, knowledge & a deeper connection to the universe: A short thread.

A new study of the Butterfly Nebula shows it blowing out mineral crystals & carbon molecules--the raw material for future Earthlike planets. 🧪🔭

ras.ac.uk/news-and-pre...
This image, which combines infrared data from the James Webb Space Telescope with submillimetre observations from the Atacama Large Millimetre/submillimetre Array (ALMA), shows the doughnut-shaped torus and interconnected bubbles of dusty gas that surround the Butterfly Nebula’s central star. The torus is oriented vertically and nearly edge-on from our perspective, and it intersects with bubbles of gas enclosing the star. The bubbles appear bright red in this image, illuminated by the light from helium and neon gas. Outside the bubbles, jets traced by emission from ionised iron shoot off in opposite directions.

It blows my mind how Caucasians will act like the blood sacrifices of the Mexica and Mayan cultures were the work of savages. Because I grew up going to public schools where we were taught about those witch burnings, beheadings and crusades so casually.

"Optimism" by Jane Hirshfield, from "The Universe in Verse: 15 Portals to Wonder Through Science and Poetry," by Maria Popova

#poetry #art #science #wonder #universe #tree
OPTIMISM Jane Hirshfield More and more I have come to admire resilience. Not the simple resistance of a pillow, whose foam returns over and over to the same shape, but the sinuous tenacity of a tree: finding the light newly blocked on one side, it turns in another. A blind intelligence, true. But out of such persistence arose turtles, rivers, mitochondria, figs—all this resinous, unretractable earth.

STORY TIME! 🧵

This is our view of the center of our galaxy.

The big bright stuff is what we can see of the center, where lies a supermassive black hole, eating the occasional star.

Most of the light from the massive cloud of stars is blocked by those dark spots. 1/4

discovered a new kind of guy this morning
I don't support the construction of a new library in El Cerrito because I believe we're at the end of the paper book era. The future of learning and access to information lies in digital technology —not in building larger repositories for physical books. Just as the car replaced the horse—not because people hated horses, but because the car was faster, more efficient, and more adaptable-so too are digital formats outpacing printed media. E-books, audiobooks, and online databases offer instant access, broader reach, and far lower environmental impact. What we need now is a cybrary—a modern digital learning center-with cybrarians who help people navigate the vast, evolving world of information. This shift doesn't diminish the value of reading; it expands it. It meets people where they are: on their phones, tablets, and computers, 24/7, from any location. Investing millions in a new building for printed materials risks building a monument to the past, when we should be creating a platform for the future.

Two crows are flying in front of a gray-blue sky. One says to the other "Do you think we're best friends in other universes too?" The second panel splits into a three by three grid of different reactions of "Um"s and "Well"s from the second crow, in a multiverse sort of way. The third panel is further split again by three, so there are nine by nine squares of the same two crows flying together, the only distinction between the squares is a different sky colour. In the fourth panel, the square are again divided by three so there are now 27 by 27 filling the panel. We can see now that there is a greater pattern emerging from the colours of each square, a pixelated form is starting to emerge. In the fifth panel, the many many squares of different universes is reminiscent of a painting using pointillism, which each dot of colour represent one of many thousands of realities. We can see now very clearly that the pixelated forms are the two crows, flying in front of a gray-blue sky. We return to the visual resolution as we saw in the first panel, as if no time has passed at all. The second crow responds "It doesn't seem likely".
