No more statements of condemnation. No more “keeping dialogue open” to allow trickles of aid deliveries. No more complicity in ethnic cleansing and genocide. We call on every government in the world to urgently suspend trade and sanction Israel NOW.

Thanks!! I look like I'm 90 but I suppose that's not always a bad thing, right?

Just followed you! Great to see all the local folks joining.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

I cancelled my WaPo subscription for a second time, two weeks ago. I'm Canadian. Still read NYT but with a cautious pessimism.

We have our own political leadership crisis building up steam here. Accurate news reporting is a crucial way to address these situations.

Mr. Zuckerberg was amenable. He signaled to Mr. Miller and his colleagues, including other senior Trump advisers, that he would do nothing to obstruct the Trump agenda, according to three people with knowledge of the meeting, who asked for anonymity to discuss a private conversation. Mr. Zuckerberg said he would instead focus solely on building tech products. Mr. Zuckerberg blamed his former chief operating officer, Sheryl Sandberg, for Facebook’s culture, according to one of the people with knowledge of the meeting. He said new guidelines and a series of layoffs amounted to a reset and that more changes were coming.

Just a poem for the beginning of 2025 ... background is Lake Vaughan in Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia, close to my home.

Yes! We see this happening almost daily. And knowledge, without the wisdom to make good use of it, is like a butterfly that never settles on a flower. Eventually, the winds blow it away.

What a beautiful image of this nebula!

Right: meteor with brilliant setting moon below it. Orange-yellow meteors usually have sodium in their composition. This one was spinning at it fell.

Scary but true. Watching this situation from Canada, where we have a Trump wannabe named Pierre Poilievre waiting to grab Trudeau's job. I don't believe in P.P. either.

Sure did!! Assad's glory days (if he ever had any) are over now.

This post is getting my first reply; I'm new here. How wonderful to see these images! I work part-time at an observatory here in Nova Scotia, as the astronomer's assistant. My special interest is astrophotography using my camera and an array of lenses. Here are a couple pics from my own yard.
