This is gravitational lensing. Where the a bunch of galaxies are so, so massive they distort the fabric of spacetime itself, and bend the light from background galaxies billions of lightyears more distant.
From the source: "A massive galaxy cluster, made of many golden elliptical galaxies with the largest, brightest one in the centre. Heavily distorted orange galaxies appear all around the cluster, the largest concentrated in a large arc around the cluster's centre; these are images of very distant galaxies, created by gravitational lensing. A few galaxies are large and bluish-white in colour; bright, nearby stars are the same colour."

It's always been stupid and fake, but even more so now, that a "caravan" of migrants would be coming here, of all times, given how we are torturing and renditioning and sending them to concentration camps.

Here are the nine most important words in the entire post
Over the last decade, Democrats have criticized McConnell’s approach to shoring up conservative judicial nominees. But Durbin, who is retiring at the end of the year, said that his party shouldn’t engage in retaliation if Democrats win the majority in the midterm election.

For me, the biggest takeaway from Sophie Cunningham’s hard launch into the right-wing culture wars is how *lucrative* bigotry is now. There’s an entire conservative media ecosystem that will turn anyone willing to make transphobia their personal brand into a well-compensated star.

I’ll be 43 in a week. I’ve been mostly single for the past 18 months, and I’m just now realizing that my intelligence has ALWAYS been THE biggest issue in my relationships.

Not getting old, or fat; Not having professional failures. 

Look at dating site blurbs. No woman EVER lists high IQ or intelligence in their “wants” section.

Women actually DESPISE men of high intelligence.

It is their single greatest insecurity.Tweet from Josh Denny @joshdenny

I’m crying
Reasonable Democrats are going to have to get off their couches, roll up their sleeves and start organizing real voters on the ground. 

We can no longer rely only on TV ads, digital spend and endorsements. Just donating from afar and complaining about the DSA won’t cut it.

The DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) can beat moderates in a growing number of blue strongholds. Why? Because the DSA has patiently built an army of on-the-ground organizers — who go to meetings, help each other, study together and THEN work to turn out voters on Election Day. That army grows every day — election or no election. Their investment in real people grows (and compounds) with each election cycle. The DSA has a bigger army, every time, win or lose.

But at the end of any election, all moderate Dems have for their efforts is a bunch of ads that nobody will ever see again. That’s not going to work anymore.

If you are a Democrat who believes in opportunity, dignity and democracy for all — but you don’t hate rich people, cops, free enterprise, the West, Israel and the United States of America — I’m talking to you!

It’s worth noting that when Jan. 6 happened, the pro-Trump right used dozens of conspiracy theories to try and offload blame from themselves—e.g., claiming it was “antifa,” “feds.” Now, they seem keen to just admit they did it—all of it—and it was good.

Musk says an hour of his time is worth $100 million yet he spends six hours a day angrily posting online every time a big budget Hollywood movie casts a Black person in a starring role. Curious!
Elon Musk reveals the brutal math behind why a single hour of his time is worth $100 million

"Tesla this year will do over $100 billion in revenue, so that's $2 billion a week. If I make slightly better decisions I can affect the outcome by a billion dollars. The marginal value of a better decision can easily be in the course of an hour $100 million"

"You have to look at it on a percentage basis. If you look at it in absolute terms, I would never get any sleep. I'd just keep working and work my brain hotter, trying to get as much as possible out of this meat computer"

This has to be the funniest question AND response I've ever seen in a poll. Less than half of Republican men think they could beat Trump in a fight. What a bunch of pathetic losers.
Democratic women are more likely than Republican men to say they could win a fight with Donald Trump
Who do you think would win in a physical fight between you and Donald Trump? (%)


Bar chart shows the following think they would win in a fight vs Trump

Dem men: 82%
Dem women: 71%
Independent men; 69%
Independent women: 46%
Republican men: 46%
Republican women: 19%
