A beautiful but skewed spiral galaxy in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image. The galaxy, called Arp 184 or NGC 1961, sits about 190 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation Camelopardalis (the Giraffe).

🇩🇰🇺🇸 Danish PM Frederiksen:

"It is completely pointless to talk about the US seizing Greenland. USA has no right to annex any of the three countries that make up the Danish Realm.

Greenland and its people have made it clear they are not for sale and called on Washington to stop threatening people."

for almost 15 years, i was willing to speak the truth even when it was unpopular. at first they mocked me, threw rocks at me, called me an "old man" who needed to "shut the fuck up." now they take these things as self-evident.

Three of the top five British grid electricity records smashed in 2025!

This is a huge success story, despite what Russian bots and U.S fossil fuel shills scream on X.

Every unit of clean domestic energy we produce means a safer future for our children…🥳

Our Solar System is orbiting the center of our Galaxy at about 220 km/s so in 2025 we collectively traveled something like 7 billion kilometers across the Milky Way. Once in a while, when you have a moment, it’s worthwhile to take a look around, see where you are, and appreciate how far you’ve come.

This will be my epitaph for 2025.
There is nothing inexplicable about why some histories are not widely known.
The Elaine massacre of October 1919, writes Atul Dev, represents “a pivotal episode of American history, consigned inexplicably to the margins.” https://go.nybooks.com/4s3ui6p
