Black and white still of the TV show "Everyone Loves Lucy". The picture shows Lucy and a friend or neighbor on a small sofa. Lucy has both arms raised, the other woman her left arm. Above the picture the text reads: "Raise your hand." Below the text continues: "... If you think the whole world has gone crazy."

Had to put this up here: John Fugelsang's facial expression is representative for all of us when we hear a tRump fan gush over Dear Leader (here Scott Jenning who's gone full MAGA and can't remember that he used to be more aligned with the former conservative Republican view) 😂

Image which looks like a screenshot from an animated movie or tv show. The background has a dark red hue and could depict a cave or tunnel. It shows a figure with only its muscular torso visible. Its body is blue and it wears a kind of purple vest with a hoodie fastened with two straps in the front. The face of the figure is a yellow-tinted skull with the hoodie on. It has both arms raised and its mouth opened, probably to exclaim the word printed in white, all-caps font: "ANTIFA!".

A white metal sign that looks as if it's a attached to a translucent background (perhaps plastic). The sign reads "Part of being nice is being mean to fascists". The text is split after 'nice' with a black fist from which emanates a yellow-red spark. The rest of the text continues below the fist.

I dunno. When I use 'soon', I refer to something within a time frame of 2 months max. But this article means a possible occurrence in 4 billion years with less than a 1% chance. I don't mean to sound cold, but who TF cares?!
Screenshot of an online news headline that reads: "The Earth could soon be flung out of orbit or into the sun - all thanks to a passing star". The word 'soon' is marked with a rectangle with a red outline. Above the headline is a picture probably of a part of the Earth taken from outer orbit.
