A very large juvenile diamond squid - this one measuring in at a whopping 3” - perhaps the 2nd largest I’ve ever seen!

Shot in the wild, using scuba, while out over the deep abyss, several miles offshore from Okinawa

Galileo’s handwritten notes found in ancient astronomy text Discovery sheds new light on how famed astronomer came to lead a scientific revolution

I love everything about this! The conviction that a major figure was not struck by a bolt of lightning but worked to understand the system he would ultimately critique and help dismantle. The scholarly sleuthing rare books β€” all of it. πŸ˜ŽπŸ€“

"multipolarity" is just a polite way to refer to a new era of imperialism, and it's one that looks a lot like early modern european imperialism of the 16th, 17th centuries: small raiding fleets attacking vulnerable ports with devastating firepower, taking concessions without any need for an army

The US killing one and hundred fifty school children in a single attack on Iran has apparently been universally decided to be a non story by the Western press. Not front page news, not in the highlights, instantly memory holed. Profession and institutions worse than worthless.

A data point to remember re: β€œpopularism” is that the popular position on what is happening in Iran and happened in Venezuela is β€œno war, this is insane, full stop” and the moderate elected officials we are supposed to like are saying contorted, legalistic, unpopular word salad instead of that.

a progressive income tax? sorry kiddo, that betrays a "utopian" desire that can only ever end in tragedy. but a relentless program of constant wars, occupations, and genocides fast and slow, for oil, land, and fulfilling the commands of a blood-hungry god? thats just Adults in the Room doing Policy
