I have this cancer in remission (nearly 20 years now). I'm convinced the only reason I'm still alive is because I was (for a neuro knock-on catastrophe) treated with immunoglobulin donated by strangers. Their antibodies taught mine, got me out of a wheelchair.

‘Keep bombing people until they stop talking about the Epstein Files’ is the main plank of U.S Foreign Policy in 2026.

JUST IN: A federal judge in Oregon has barred ICE from conducting warrantless arrests without probable cause in the state, saying the agency's "dragnets" have flouted "clear and undisputed" law. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Congressman Thomas Massie
COURAGEOUS.
LEADERSHIP.
Here’s a thought for James Comer.
There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton.
It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein.
You know, just to see what she knows.

IC 2574: Coddington's Nebula apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap26021...
Dwarf galaxy IC 2574 shows clear evidence of intense star forming activity in its telltale reddish regions of glowing hydrogen gas.
This really is a great picture:

On Jan. 7, a European Robin was spotted in Montreal. The bird was authenticated by the Cornell Ornithology Lab. No one knows how he could have crossed the Atlantic.🌻🙂

“I coined this term ‘culture-care’ a long time ago... ‘Culture wars’ is the main metaphor and how we talk about culture as a battleground. And I thought that was not only unproductive, you know, you’re talking about destroying things and demonizing the other side...” @iamfujimura.bsky.social

- Titillate your mind and learn about an amorous topic such as epilepsy or the plague
- Relish a night of passionate role-play and re-enact Saint Valentine healing his jailor’s blind daughter
- Whisper scripture to each other

The Armenian Genocide is a historical fact. Vice President Vance can delete his post, but he can't erase history. His decision to ignore the facts is beyond disrespectful to the Armenian community and the millions killed in the Armenian Genocide.

San Josef Bay is in Cape Scott Provincial Park, close to the northwest tip of Vancouver Island. I travelled there with friend, and fellow photographer, @drakedyck.bsky.social on January 30th. We arrived with only 1.5 hours of daylight left. Contre-jour lighting can be a challenge.

Our culture feels like a battlefield these days, but what if it’s actually a garden we’ve forgotten how to tend? Artist and author @iamfujimura.bsky.social shares how art, wonder, and imagination can restore our capacity to love, hope, and tend culture with care. I needed this conversation today!

I listened to the testimony of Aliya Rahman, who is disabled and a US citizen, detained by ICE in Minneapolis for no clear reason. What they did to her amounts to government sanctioned torture These tactics will continue unless we speak out. Don't look away.

IC1848 - The Soul Nebula. I am officially blown away by the detail in my first real SHO image. This is just 30 mins on each filter. I can't wait to see the results when I get several hours on it.

A major victory. A federal judge has ruled that ICE must stop targeting peaceful protesters and legal observers who are not suspected of any crimes.

Some unseasonable birds seen in Seaton during my lunch break today. The lesser whitethroat is thought to be of the Siberian subspecies which is really cool. There are apparently two of them over-wintering in this very small oasis in Devon. #DevonBirds #WildlifePhotography #UKWildlife #Birds

I’ve loved Fernando Ortega's music for decades. Then I found out he was a birder, too. (Be still, my heart!)
Still pinching myself that he was kind enough to say such nice things about Weathering Change.
Renee Good was murdered in broad daylight, and Republicans are acting as if it is ok. Where is your decency? Where is your humanity? When will y’all develop a backbone and actually represent the people that sent you here?

Kristi Noem is a stone-cold liar who has zero credibility.
There is nothing to suggest the shooting of an unarmed woman in Minneapolis was justified.
This heinous killing must be criminally investigated to the full extent of the law.
Appreciate not only the display of humanity here, but also @pbump.com taking a second to note that there have been many other instances this year where other families probably felt the same way he does now.
