Cooperation, community, and prosocial behavior are what advance humanity. Basically, give a shit about others, not just yourself.

What?!?! The EPA has drafted a plan to eliminate all pollution controls from coal and gas-fired power plants. The agency claims these plants β€œdo not contribute significantly” to dangerous pollution or climate change, arguing their emissions are a small and declining share of global totals.

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.

That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

Some federal employees who accepted Trump’s buyout offer are now being notified that their buyout has been denied, and they are being terminated instead.

2. A memo distributed by NSA leadership to its staff says that on February 10, all NSA websites and internal network pages that contain banned words will be deleted.

This is the list of 27 banned words distributed to NSA staff:

The White House has directed the C.I.A. to send an unclassified email listing employees hired within the past two years, as part of an Elon Musk-led initiative to drastically reduce the federal workforce.

It’s weird that there are conservatives who love Star Trek and don’t see the irony. It’s literally atheist space communism.

Everyone calm down.

Trump was just raising tariffs on Columbia, not Colombia, and for once I agree. 8 CDs for a penny is absurd.

It’s so weird that Elon Musk doesn’t care whether the government subsidizes electric vehicles now that there are a bunch of other companies benefitting from those subsidies.

There was no such thing as the Roman salute. Say it again. Don’t let anyone manipulate you into believing you saw something you didn’t. It happened, and we need to be calling it out now before history repeats itself again.

On January 13 a Full Moon and a Full Mars were close, both bright and opposite the Sun in planet Earth's sky. In fact Mars was occulted, passing behind the Moon, when viewed from some locations in North America and northwest Africa. As seen from Richmond, Virginia, USA, this composite image sequence follows the evening lunar occultation before, during, and after the much anticipated celestial spectacle. The telescopic time series is constructed from an exposure made every two minutes while tracking the Moon over the hours encompassing the event. As a result, the Red Planet's trajectory seems to follow a gently curved path due to the Moon's slightly different rate of apparent motion. The next lunar occultation of bright planet Mars will be on February 9 when the moon is in a waxing gibbous phase. Lunar occultations are only ever visible from a fraction of the Earth's surface, though. The February 9 occultation of Mars will be seen from parts of Russia, China, eastern Canada, Greenland and other (mostly northern) locations, but a close conjunction of a bright Moon with Mars will be more widely visible from planet Earth.
