Bluesky stuns in new App Store ranking

Hey that’s my line!

👇🏼👇🏼

The background of space is black. Thousands of galaxies appear all across the view. Their shapes and colors vary. Some are various shades of orange, others are white. Most stars appear blue, and are sometimes as large as more distant galaxies that appear next to them. A very bright star is just above and left of center. It has eight bright blue, long diffraction spikes. Between 4 o’clock and 6 o’clock in its spikes are several very bright galaxies. A group of three are in the middle, and two are closer to 4 o’clock. These galaxies are part of the galaxy cluster SMACS 0723, and they are warping the appearances of galaxies seen around them. Long orange arcs appear at left and right toward the center.

A massive cloud of gas and dust is seen in dark, dusty red, with its outer portions a translucent, ethereal gray. Several stars and distant galaxies are scattered throughout the image.

A circular-shaped nebula with a complex structure. On the circle’s exterior, particularly on the left side of the image, are curtains of material glowing orange like fire. Interior to this outer shell is a ring of mottled filaments in bright pink, studded with clumps and knots. A greenish loop extends from the upper right of the ring into the central cavity. Translucent wisps of blue, green, and red appear throughout the image.

The star cluster Pismis 24 lies within the much larger emission nebula called NGC 6357, located about 8,000 light-years from Earth. The cluster is seen here above a small portion of the nebula. The gas below the stars glows through ionization caused by intense ultraviolet radiation from the massive young stars within the cluster. The strong radiation and stellar winds from from these blazing, blue-white stars also pushes the nebular material outward, creating one of many low-density bubbles within NGC 6357.

once again thinking about the fact that this is all just OUT THERE and we can only see it through the eyes of telescopes

All those books about the declines and falls of empires that I never read.... do they cover how dumb things were? I was unprepared for how dumb things were going to get.

It’s so weird to be able to scroll and see posts I actually WANT to like.

The Guardian has announced they are archiving their Twitter/X account:

“We think that the benefits of being on X are now outweighed by the negatives and that resources could be better used promoting our journalism elsewhere.”

I’m in so much back pain that I’m using my heating pad, that is typically used for my cramps, on my back 😭😭 I have another chiropractor appointment tomorrow but I’m in so much pain it’s not even funny

Love this.

where are my star lovers at

I am currently hyper fixating on Ancient Egypt and cults 😅😭

I FOUND MY NEW HYPER FIXATION

Been thinking a lot about Godzilla Minus One and how the main political message of it is “the government will not save you from a monster“

Libraries are precious and beautiful and must be defended

I need to stop spending money… oh it’s bad

This day is not talked about enough

I feel like this app needs more Tom and Patrick...what do you think?

The whole internet right now

i think on this app at least we can all agree the devil is not scary. like not even top 10 scariest guys who aren't real

Turns out, it wasn’t Twitter/X we loved, it was each other.

I can’t wait to see that platform collapse.
