Stargazing is my jam. Give me the night, the moon, the forest, the creek, and some Mel Brooks comedies!

My therapist recently found out that I've spent roughly ten years being yelled at by strangers on the internet and I've had a pretty hard time convincing her that it's fine.

Do you have questions about this "dire wolf" "de-extinction"? I am probably going to make a video tomorrow.

(Note: They are not dire wolves, and it is not a de-extinction)

Can you imagine thinking a government employee making 40K processing Medicaid payments to a parent with medically fragile children is the enemy, while thinking a billionaire who sends his sperm to random women and takes billions from the government to go to Mars is the good guy?

WTF.

I submitted a Letter to the Editor today. Most newspapers have a 200-250 word limit, so it's not too daunting. Brief statements of fact work best. Hit the fascists hard and call them by name.

Can you write a letter to your local paper today?

On Ukraine, Europe must step into the void | Virgin

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Seeing an unelected South African billionaire in the Oval Office giving a briefing next to the mute and demented US President is jarring to say the least…

They are pulling back the curtain to let us all know who is in charge.

A tweet from rohit (@krishnanrohit) saying "This is Orwellian" in response to a tweet by Alessandro Rigolon (@alerigolon). Rigolon shares that he was instructed to remove the word "climate" from the title of an ongoing grant to keep it and that publications from the grant cannot include the word "climate" or other forbidden words. Rigolon expresses disbelief at this situation, noting that he is writing from the United States of America. The hashtag #AcademicSky is included.
