When we say “no more foreign wars.” do we mean… A. A few more foreign wars B. One more foreign war C. An endless military excursion that we pretend isn’t a war. D. NO MORE FOREIGN WARS. If you answered A,B or C, we regret to inform you that you are probably Jim Risch. Link to retire Risch in bio.

Has anyone in the US witnessed an Aurora? Should’ve been able to see it as low as Pennsylvania.
G3 (Strong) geomagnetic storm levels were reached at 15/0259 UTC (2259 EDT on 14 Sep) following the onset of increased solar winds from a coronal hole high speed stream.

It has taken medical science 200 years to advance humans to the point where people are so healthy and living so long that they can deny that science and medicine is what got us here.

"So what might have changed if thinkers like Baldwin had been recognized as philosophers, not just commentators? If philosophy departments taught Baldwin’s meditations on identity and freedom alongside Locke and Rousseau,..." www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...

Why aren’t great Black thinkers called philosophers?
“Philosophy has long positioned itself as the domain of pure reason, supposedly above the fray of politics and identity. But scratch the surface, and the bias becomes clear,” Justin Ray writes.

This is so simple, but many of the best ideas are retrospectively! This would be great for communities with specialization or special interests like scientists, educators and even activists. While BlueSky has its own, those communities don’t have to wait to establish trust amongst their members.

Shall we dust off solutions to Fermi? Imagine that we just happen to evolve in a quarantined zone and we’re stuck with whatever the rest of the universe was trying to contain 🤣🤣 2 Billion LY mostly-void in comparison to 2.5 Million LY to the nearest galaxy Andromeda 🤯 #physics #wtf
A new study suggests that Earth may lie within a massive, matter-deficient region of space-called the KBC supervoid-spanning 2 billion light-years. This vast underdensity could help resolve the Hubble Tension, the puzzling mismatch in the universe's measured expansion rate.

I absolutely love #Andor but season one was already emotional and the "US being the Empire" undertone was just a hint and the portrayal of the rebellion was so inspirational. Maarva's speech was perfect! But I'm not sure I can bear season two with how bad things are getting here in reality...

This wordplay isn’t surprising for those of us who see how mugshots are weaponized for minorities. Still, it’s easy forget how easily the mind is tricked and is worth a refresher. We need to stop playing defense and start framing the narrative ourselves, starting with what articles we share.

It’s a bit disappointing how nasty some of the comments are. Still angry that when faced with two difficult decisions he chooses opposite of total resistance. They will break laws and rules anyways, make them own it. There is no lesser evil by going along. It’s all evil, all the way down.

My library is hosting a Gala fundraiser, the funds help the staff do some of the most creative supplemental library programming on the East coast, every bit of donations really goes a long way!

The Yonkers Public Library does so much with a tiny budget compared to municipalities around us.

Sensory rooms for children, elderly prom nights (which is a huge hit) and sponsoring newborns with a starter collection are a few of things done in the last year.

If anyone is in Yonkers NY,tickets are here: www.foundationforypl.org/gala

Join us for the FYPL Spring Gala 2025: Stepping Stones to Literacy! 
 📅 April 24 | 🕕 6-9PM
 📍 Riverfront Library, 1 Larkin Center, Yonkers
Enjoy an evening of live music 🎶, dancing 💃, a photo booth 📸, hors d’oeuvres 🍽️, and wine & beer 🍷🍻!
We’re thrilled to honor Wilson Kimball (President & CEO, MHACY) and Eugene Howell (Reference Librarian, 49 years with YPL) for their incredible contributions.
