My god, Octavia Butler, just miss ONCE
 Page from a book saying:

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING
Choose your Leaders with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool is to be led
by the opportunists who control the fool.
To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar
is to ask to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

NOR CRYSTAL TEARS (1981) Acrylic - 30" x 19” A favorite theme of mine is the depiction of human-alien interactions. This book deals with the subject so wonderfully that I wanted to make it the focus of attention for the cover painting. 1/4 #bookssky #art 🪐📚
A woman with short dark hair reaches out to a mantis-like alien. The fingers of her hand match the long slender digits of the alien as they touch. There is an embossed gold star on the alien’s shoulder, and it wears a furry covering overs its lower legs. Traces of snow can be seen on that fur as well as on the cuff of her green puffer jacket and branches of vegetation barely seen in the lower right foreground. The background of the painting, however, is loosely painted in greens and yellows, populated with silhouettes of branches and tree trunks. A barely visible structure resembling an alien city can be seen on the distant horizon as framed by the alien’s cautiously extended appendage and the woman’s arm.

The Abundance movement often points to environmental groups as the obstacles to building. But who actually files the lawsuits blocking projects? It’s not environmental groups. It’s been lawyered-up HOAs protecting property values all along. Regulation by litigation is the problem.
Bar chart titled “Who’s Really Blocking California Development?” showing the share of CEQA lawsuits by plaintiff type. HOAs and NIMBY groups account for the majority at 54%. Business and commercial plaintiffs file 20% of cases, government entities 13%, environmental groups 8%, tribal or cultural groups 4%, and labor unions 2%. The chart notes the analysis is based on 1,234 CEQA court opinions from 1973–2025 using CourtListener data, with HOAs/NIMBYs defined as homeowner associations, neighborhood groups, and ad hoc project-opposition groups.

Space War: "The Enemy is at 50 million kilometers!" A 1/3rd of an AU, around a close pass of Earth and Mars, while visible, it would be roughly NINE MONTHS to engage. Likely just watch, nothing would happen until either side closed range, even if 100% visible to each other.

Also in closing range, the size of the vessels would be irrelevant to being hit, as small or large: 100 tons, or 100,000 tons would be insignificant in the vastness of space. Only within a few hundred km might this change.
