The Trump administration has just announced that all college financial aid programs, scholarships, prizes, housing, and graduation ceremonies that help Black or Latino students are now considered to be illegal. The Education Department accuses colleges of discriminating against white students.

a heart in space, happy valentines day ❤️🌌
Together, two merging galaxies form a bean-like shape just below the center of this image. The cores of the galaxies are colored blue, and one is above and to the left of the other. These two cores are surrounded by bright tendrils of coral star-forming regions, which stretch above and below. To the right of the top galactic core is a particularly bright star-formation clump with faint diffraction spikes. The lower galaxy is a mostly regular spiral shape, while the upper galaxy has been distorted into a much more condensed bun. There is also a semi-transparent arc of pale dust above both merging galaxies. The background is black, and many tiny distant galaxies dot the scene.

Good morning #Bluesky friends, have a great weekend.

Here’s a photo of Orion that I took at Loch Morlich, near Aviemore in the beautiful Scottish Highlands.

And now to start a needlepoint project for a friend.
A pattern on an embroidery hoop. It features 7 different knives with the words "no spoons left only knives " written around them. The pattern is drawn in blue washable pencil.
