In some moments, all the non-sense feels so distant that it's almost surreal, but then it comes the next day, and you forget what's real and what's a dream.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

So, these armed felons from January 6, 2021 are “just tourists!” But an ICU nurse defending a woman who ICE pepper-sprayed and pushed to the ground was a “domestic terrorist “!

After all brutality is over, there is no trace of the names, the heroes, the killers, the cowards, the victims nor the winners. People kill, massacre and create so much pain for having power over a tiny fraction of history that will be forgotten.

Astronomers Detect a Possible Signature of Life on a Distant Planet
Further studies are needed to determine whether K2-18b, which orbits a star 120 light-years away, is inhabited, or even habitable.Screenshot from NPF
Is this a hint of life on another world, or just a lot of hot air?

Today is International Fact-Checking Day ✔️ Independent fact-checking is more important than ever. Before you share: ✅ Is it from a reliable source? 🔍 Can it be verified elsewhere? 📢 Is it informing or manipulating?

Much of the problems we suffer today come from the rise of individualism, where if it doesn't affect me directly, it's not a problem. The principles of the common good and ethics have been diluted in the praise of the self. #TheSociedad #SocialCrisis

Timothy Snyder @timothysnyder.bsky.social · 14/03/2025
The point of repeating antisemitic tropes while claiming to fight antisemitism is to evacuate any meaning from the term "antisemitism" My latest essay: "'Antisemitism' and Antisemitism: The abuse of the word and the spread of the phenomenon" snyder.substack.com/p/antisemiti...
"Rulers who deploy the word 'antisemitism' can themselves be antisemites or promoters of antisemitism. The abuse of the word 'antisemitism' is meant to generate a sense of plausibility, confuse opposition, and create more space for the actual phenomenon of antisemitism. And this misdirection is an integral part of the effort to replace a constitutional order with an authoritarian one."
