“The upcoming No Kings has set off klaxons for Republican lawmakers…Some in party leadership are going further by branding it a pro-terrorism demonstration—an unambiguously false allegation meant to get ahead of a potentially massive protest against the president.” www.thebulwark.com/p/no-kings-r...

The NASA/ESA/CSA #Webb Space Telescope has captured direct images of gas giant #exoplanets in a system 130 light-years away, and found evidence that they formed like Jupiter and Saturn 🪐 Read more 👉 esawebb.org/news/weic2504/ 🔭🧪 #astrosci
This image shows the planetary system HR 8799. The image background is black. At the centre of the image, there is a symbol representing a star labeled HR 8799. This star blocks the light from the host star. There are four exoplanets, which look like fuzzy dots, pictured in the image surrounding the star. Furthest from the star is a fuzzy, faint blue dot, labeled b, at the 10 o’clock position. At the one o’clock position, second furthest from the star is a blueish-white fuzzy dot labeled c. Just below that is an orange dot labeled e. At the four o’clock position, still nearby the star, is another fuzzy white dot labeled d.

They break the law on purpose—not out of necessity, but to prove they can. It’s a stress test, a spectacle, a lesson in power: the law only applies if it is enforced. And when it isn’t, it ceases to exist. This is how oligarchy is installed—not in secret, but in plain sight, daring you to stop it.

The age of human tyranny was cruel—but flawed. AI tyranny will be perfect. It will know you better than you know yourself. It will shape your reality before you resist. And if we lose democracy now, we may never get another chance to win it back

Government-censored science ruined the USSR. Is the USA next? Back in 1928, the Darwin-and-Mendel rejecting scientist, Trofim Lysenko, was put in charge of Soviet agriculture. This is why you don't want a government that embraces anti-science policies! bigthink.com/starts-with-... #science

With a flurry of threats to scientists, science funding, and health policy, the USA now faces a crisis reminiscent of Soviet-era Lysenkoism.
