Capitulation to the current regime is cowardice. The Smithsonian Institution is the most egregious cowardice of all, as it has literally embodied our national history. Not so much anymore. I'm in tears.

Nothings really getting covered but the war.
But even without the war, that fire probably wouldn't get a lot of air.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.

A truly extraordinary moment.

We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.

find something that will really engage you. Whether it's rearranging a room, cooking for friends, or donating you time to help kids or others. There's a million ways. Covid did a number on my brain, and being active and engaged has saved me over and over.

G2 geomagnetic strom conditions reached! Lots of clouds here in Reykjavik, and I was in bed reading, but I was able to catch this amazing shot of the diffuse aurora towering out of the clouds and above the rooftops.

Happy hunting tonight, all!

The market at night, painted in 1840 by Petrus van Schendel (1806–1870).

Isn't it amazing how the artist managed to create light with oil paint?
I mean those lights look so real!
And so many wonderful details, you feel like you're there.

Trump: "They knocked out 54 ships in two days. I got mad at my people. I said, 'Why the hell did we kill them? Why didn't we just capture them and use them in our Navy?' They said they wouldn't have qualified for that. One of my generals said, 'Sir, it's a lot more fun doing it this way.'"

Elon Musk is now worth $845 billion.

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.

Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.

See the problem here?
