People, please stop putting "Credits to respective owners" below the images you've stolen. Giving credit does not make theft not be theft, even if you bother to actually list the owner.

Sci-fi dreams with eyes open. It asks 'what if' or WTF? and it sometimes leads to 'what's next.’ It’s not just spaceships and pew-pew, it’s people, culture, hope, doom, resilience, rage, love. It’s the sandbox for the future we'll be stuck in whatever we make it.

Science isn't that thing you read in textbooks, it’s a screaming, electric godzilla of curiosity stomping through the unknown, chewing up illusion, frying ignorance, and farting out progress.

Here's what the other guy's talking brain says:

"Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing up the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters." -Frederick Douglass, 1857

When I was young, there were <1,000 bald eagles in the lower 48 due to DDT, hunting, and habitat loss, and we never saw one the whole time roaming the prairies and mountains of SD. Today, there are 70,000+ and I see them daily. Governments can and should effect positive change.

Science does not work like this. The only way you can set a timeline is if you have rigged the results in advance.

Microsoft needs to STOP trying to turn Windows into a tablet OS. Create a different OS or a differect distro. But people who do WORK on computers need a desktop or laptop, and that's unlikely the change in the next century.

BREAKING: The country of Norway just entered a bill to give transgender Americans asylum in the country of Norway… LGBTQ+ STRONG! 🌈✨

Be suspicious of anyone who fixates on IQ as a measure of intelligence. Real intelligence isn’t a number, it’s a burning curiosity, a delight in the world, a voracious hunger “to follow knowledge like a sinking star / beyond the utmost bound of human thought.”

I'm not one to overshare, but I just dropped my cholesterol by 10% without drugs or sacrifice by just applying the latest dietary research. How I did it, I think, is worth knowing:

NAFTA and the other free trade agreements were indeed stupidly written to benefit capitalists at the expense of American workers, and that needs to be fixed. This is not how to fix it.

It's concerning to me that my otherwise intelligent, educated conservatives think Trump's tariffs are reciprocal. This is categorically, demonstrably not so. At all.

Tron Ares if it made any sense: Recognizers come through into the real world and immediately topple over and catch fire--because PHYSICS.

When schools make science feel like a challenge only for the ‘specialists,’ we all lose. Let’s teach kids to see nature as amazing—not intimidating. #InspiringCuriosity #ScienceIsForEveryone #FutureThinkers"

Science fiction isn't just a glimpse into the future, it's a celebration of human imagination, innovation, and endless possibilities. Every great idea starts with a spark of curiosity—let's keep discovering! #SciFi #Curiosity"

GDP is not the measure of national success. It really isn't.

Heartfelt condolences for all affected in Myanmar and Thailand after the devastating earthquake. My father was stationed in Thailand with the Air Force and talked fondly of the region's beauty and culture. May strength and resilience guide its people through this tough time.

A coal fired power plant burns 90-150 truckloads of coal per day. But the fly ash is a raw material for high-strength cement, cutting CO2 emissions of that industry, and desulfurization to prevent acid rain produces gypsum for making drywall.

The future isn’t something that happens to you—it’s something you build. Every great era was shaped by people who refused to let the present define their limits. Keep learning, keep dreaming, and keep pushing. The stars are still waiting.

Amazing video of Space-X Falcon 9 fuel dump over Europe.
