The golden hour on Toronto's waterfront ♥️😍

January 2025 was quite unexpectedly the warmest January on record at 1.75C above preindustrial, beating the prior record set in 2024. This is despite the presence of La Niña conditions in the tropical Pacific, with the El Niño event of 2023/2024 long faded. www.theclimatebrink....

For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love- Carl Sagan ♥️

Carl Sagan is peerless. I am reading his novel ‘Contact’ & am continuously blown away by how many things he has an effortless command of- astronomy, electrical engineering, physics, language, beauty, connection, human relationships, humour, hubris, gender discrimination. The list goes on and on.

What an astonishing thing a book is. It’s a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. CARL SAGAN

Girl, is your name GitHub? Coz I keep wanting to commit to you.

Leonard Cohen's 'Everybody knows' goes quite fittingly with Donald Trump's victory dance at his inauguration. The lyrics seem to be tailor-made for the times, with rising inequality and billionaire control of elections and 'democracy' #democracy #donaldtrump #trump #elections #Elonmusk #inequality

"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”- J. Krishnamurti

"Something's beginning is always a particularly magical point, the opening into a world that's new. There- this book has already begun, which means the magic has been done. And, now, all that's needed is to find the words to fill the abyss between beginning & end." - Peter Kingsley in Catafalque 🙇

Saw this beautiful sunset on the Toronto waterfront today 😍 #sunset #nature #Toronto #water #lakeontario

A timely passage from 'The I Ching or Book of Changes'- Everything on earth is subject to change. Prosperity is followed by decline: this is the eternal law on earth. Evil can indeed be held in check but not permanently abolished. It always returns.
