"Did really well" in an election means absolutely jack, and it's a little embarrassing to see so many congratulating themselves for it. It's a pass-fail. You get elected or you don't. That's it.

A PBS News tweet explains how two laid-off USAID employees created a website to match donors with canceled programs, keeping nearly 80 projects running in 30 countries. Below the text is an image of two peopleโ€”Caitlin Tulloch and Rob Rosenbaumโ€”appearing in a split-screen video interview, each seated in their respective rooms.

This is a reminder that UFOs are a social phenomenon based around people misunderstanding what they see.

And it is a mistake for astronomers and other scientists to pretend otherwise.
