Via Earthscope Consortium 🧪 Seismic waves from Myanmar's M7.7 quake ripple across North America in this Ground Motion Visualization (GMV). Dots show seismic stations: red=up, blue=down. Waves travel through Earth, undetected by humans but caught by instruments. Learn more about GMVs loom.ly/1f83wvk

In honor of all the new arrivals, I'm sharing one of my favorite videos. It shows 24 hours of Earth's rotation, with the camera locked to the sky instead of the ground. We're all hanging out on this spinning rock. Brilliant work by Bartosz Wojczyński. 🧪 artuniverse.eu/gallery/1907...

If “writing an angry oped while not a full citizen” now qualifies as punishable activity, I would suggest Marco Rubio and this admin look at a group of uppity upstarts who did something called the Federalist Papers….

The lunatics have taken over the asylum. This country is heading deeper into insanity and it breaks my heart.

Freedom of speech has become a phrase that is no longer a freedom. What was a constitutional right is now just “I don’t like what your saying or what your beliefs are, you’re gone”. What is even happening? So dystopian.

This makes me sick to my stomach. So many law-abiding and tax paying individuals who may have missed one check in and seeing people deported without due process is unconscionable. This is not what they said would happen, no, it’s so much worse. I fear it is going to get even worse.

Carney: "The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation is over."

Thank goodness for the American Medical Association. Here is their YouTube page. Please share far and wide. Right now bird flu is spreading throughout our country and most people have no clue. Please stay updated and bookmark this page for your health and well-being.➡️ www.youtube.com/@americanmed...

The headline really sanitizes what they did to this guy. Getting stripped naked, inadequate food, sleep deprivation sounds more like war on terror ear rendition than "interrogation."

Here’s Elon cutting pediatric brain cancer research 👇🏻

This doctor’s letter to United Heathcare for denying nausea medication to a child on chemotherapy.

Gov. Walz, "There’s nothing conservative about an unelected South African nepo baby firing people at the VA."

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe. If Elon doesn't understand that, maybe he should leave it to those of us who do.

SpaceX is actually ACME, isn’t it

Call me crazy, but how about we don’t give massive tax cuts to the top 1%. Problem solved, right? www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Focus on a different child each time you watch 😂 📽️SportsCenter

"America is back!" Trade war raising prices Measles Destroying alliances Killing aid to people who need food, clean water, and health care Medical and scientific research hobbled National parks closed Inhumane deportations Putin very very very happy

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

It didn't start with gas chambers. It isn't starting with gas chambers this time either. Be warned.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Because the president is a psychopath, because the vice president has the spine of a jellyfish, because the people of this nation are terrorized, the state of the union is strongly fucked up. .

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

HAYES: “The United States siding with Putin against democratic allies will have massive consequences for global politics for decades to come.”

You know why Trump, Vance. & all those Repubs hate Zelennsky? Because those mofos do not understand how he stands solidly and strongly by his country IN A WAR ZONE with his massive balls, while they would have bailed with their shriveled up little pecans. Worthless weak cowardly pieces of excrement.

That press conference was the most disgraceful act of betrayal I’ve ever seen.

Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

Yes

America is being run by a slumlord and his chihuahua. Absolutely disgusting situation set up by a pair of bullies and their pet press corps.

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

Why don’t you wear a suit?

A sad day
