Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success

Feb. 13, 1926: The first U.S. postage stamp meant exclusively for airmail is issued. The 10-cent blue stamp depicting two planes against a map of the country comes as the Post Office will oversee the first airmail flown by private contractors, a Detroit-Cleveland route, in two days.

This image shows the famous Trifid nebula in Sagittarius, also known as Messier 20 or NGC 6514. This particular nebula is a classic favourite among both visual and photographic observers due to its bright and colourful appearance. The complex cloud displays an unusual combination of both red emission and blue reflection areas as well as numerous intricate dark patterns. The nebula is located 9000 light years away in the direction of the Milky Way centre. The entire area is sprinkled with thousands of stars and fainter dusty and nebulous areas throughout. Another dark cloud shows up silhouetted against the starry background to the left of the Trifid.

Near the top of the Trifid itself a curious example of gas evaporation can be seen. A dense stalk, 8 light years from the central cluster, is emerging from the edge of the bubble surrounding the central cluster, and in the other direction a powerful stellar jet from a young star, HH 399 embedded in the gas, is shooting out in a direction towards the bottom right. The bright young stars in the central cluster emit strong radiation which eats away the surrounding gas and dust. The stalk only appears because a denser region lies at its very tip and protects a thin strip of the cloud from this interstellar erosion. The Hubble Space Telescope has imaged this fascinating area in high resolution. Also, the proper motion of the irradiated plasma in this jet has been measured and an interesting paper has been published detailing these ...

/4 Anyway, a long-time theme of Trumpism, and an increasingly common theme of the Republican Party, is that violence is justified against protesters because protesters are evil. Itโ€™s a deeply foul, thuggish, un-American sentiment.

In 2003 US President George W. Bush told French president Jacques Chirac in a private talk that they needed to invade Iraq to defeat the Biblical demons Gog & Magog. If reports are correct US officials are still trying to jumpstart Armageddon 23 years later because Jesus didn't come back last time.

AI is not inevitable.

Corporations have dumped billions into a "solution", and now are scrambling to find a problem.

They need people to feel overwhelmed and to give in.

You can say No.
