Come on. You can’t actually be surprised that Trump would be such a narcissistic cunt in response to Reiner’s murder, can you? Really? Does ANYONE actually think he will or even can set aside his walking fetid douchebag personality for a second? He can’t. It’s what he is.

It's been yet another heavy, scary, infuriating week in this country. It's easy to feel angry, scared, hopeless (those feelings are ok). But. But. The universe is incredible, and we are learning amazing things. Dive into this deep field; let it be a positive start to your weekend ✨

Chaos! This *incredible* new #jwst image shows shells of dust emitted over the last 700 years by a system of 3 aging stars. The 2 main stars tear through space at an astonishing ~2000 MILES PER SECOND, whereas the 3rd star cuts through the dust like a knife. More: science.nasa.gov/missions/web...

Have you noticed less beauty in your feeds the last 6+ weeks? Fewer gasps of awe? Fewer prompts to consider a universal perspective; to ask big questions? While much of US spending is on decreasing bad things, NASA is a perfect example of increasing the good ✨ Here's a new JWST image!

WE ARE BACK!! And the Roman telescope is looking *GREAT* as we continue to prep it for launch here at @nasagoddard 🚀✨ Roman is designed to unravel the mysteries of the dark universe - dark matter & dark energy - as well as finding tens of thousands of new planets outside our solar system.

Never underestimate the stupidity of the American Republican voter.
The president of the most powerful nation on Earth is so terrified of the tales that an imprisoned sex trafficker can tell that he plies her with a comfort puppy and custom meals and is holding out the prospect of a pardon.
77 million people voted for this.

The fucking Awful Eight haven’t taught Trump anything he…and the rest of the world…didn’t already know.
"If I were in the Senate, I wouldn’t vote for this compromise. Shutdowns are an opportunity to make your arguments, and the country was just starting to pay attention... I worry that Democrats have just taught Trump that they will fold under pressure."

Hey everyone.

FYI - The battle of Helm’s Deep is over. The battle for Middle- Earth is about to begin.

Keep your noses to the grindstones because November 2026 isn’t in the bag.

I officially designate it as “The Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Ballroom” for the duration of Trump’s “reign”. Orange fucking asshole.
The name “President Donald J. Trump Ballroom” will only *stick* until the next Democratic president demolishes it and renames it grounds the “Jacqueline Kennedy Rose Garden 2.0.”

Something about this seems awfully familiar. I’ve seen this before. I just know it. Maybe in some old photos? From a past world event? On a historical figure? Hmmmm.

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

We must not allow the federal government to strip Arizona's forests and wilderness of their protections. This is a public land grab by greedy corporate interests—and I plan to stand in the way.

I remember learning about another time when we faced a tyrant and “everything was on the line”. Remember what we did about it? We went to war. We risked everything that was on the line to keep it. We’ve become complacent. Memes and social media posts won’t save us. Actions will matter.

Can we please stop saying each and every individual act of evil this administration does is “the” crisis? It’s ALL fucked up shit. We’ve known that from the moment he slid down that escalator. Pile ‘em on the list and make a plan to get every last one of them out of power.
