I prefer presidents who don’t have their accounts closed over money laundering concerns.

A very wide view of the Milky Way from the southern horizon near Tucson. The image covers 52.5 by 35.5 degrees. The exposure is two hours or one minute exposures through a Canon 24mm tilt-shift lens (untilted) at f/3.5 with an ASI 2600MC Pro camera. Unguided. #astrophotography

While I'm pretty sure a big factor in T***p's recent bashing of American Football in favor of what everyone else calls Football is that FIFA was the most recent folks to tickle his tummy. I wonder how much resentment about his USFL experience is a factor.

Trump instructs Bondi via post to investigate Democrats on the list she said existed then said it didn’t exist but now it must exist cause she replied ’will do.’ This one ain’t gonna work either, Donnie.

While I liked both movies, the "physics" in them might as well have been magic. Especially the but in Arrival about language giving special access to time.

Here's the Monkey Head nebula, NGC 2174, near the end of Orion's club. The red is hydrogen and cyan is oxygen. I took some liberties with the mix. The nebula as shown is a little bit smaller than the full Moon. 🔭

With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

NGC 7331 in Pegasus. The bright, bluish spot below the center of the core, at the edge of the inner dust lanes is supernova 2025rsb.

Right now the PM of Singapore is telling the world that he's done with the US. He's not interested in working with zero sum players, and has many other options available.

A reminder: The very rich mostly don't buy things. They buy services. They'll be fine.

When is Trump going to rename the state to the east of Arizona "New America?"

Check this out: this a tactile model of the Cosmic Web, produced by Amelia Ortiz Gil and @vicentjm.bsky.social as part of their project: Tactile 3D models for research and outreach in astronomy. The model used is the Cosmic V-Web inferred from Cosmicflows-2: doi.org/10.3847/1538... #cosmology 🧪

A photography of a tactile model of the Cosmic Web, that is, the large scale structure of the Universe. It features a materialization of the Cosmic Web filaments, by means of a grey mesh, and a materialization of Cosmic Web knots, by means of filled, colored blobs. Such knots include: the Great Attractor, Perseus-Pisces, Shapley, Hercules, Norma. The location of our Home galaxy the Milky Way is at the center of the model.

I'm kind of surprised Pam Bondi was a high level choice in the last T admin.

It’s really something to watch the Party whose supporters poop on the floor in the Capitol and wipe their feces on the wall tell us which bathrooms to use.

The overlap in intelligence between the smartest Trump cabinet appointee and the dumbest bear seems considerable.
