The Dolphin Head nebula in Canis Major constellation, photographed from my terrace

1/ The Dolphin Head (Sh2-308) is an emission nebula in the Canis Major region: a huge bubble created by material expelled by the star WR6, swept by its powerful stellar wind.
It’s also a target that drove me crazy for four years before I finally started to get a grip on it. ➑️

I don't want to hear a conservative talk about the "rule of law" ever again.

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

Michigan accuses big oil of being β€˜cartel’ that fuels climate crisis and high energy costs In first-of-its-kind complaint, state accused four fossil fuel majors and US oil lobbying group of climate disinformation

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

They have known about this crisis since 1970 and have only fueled it with disinformation and lobbying dollars. They must be held accountable.

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."

It’s not a coincidence that the president demeans the service of our allied combat vets and then his policy director claims the VA nurse was killed because he was an assassin. Because this is who they are. Disgusting to the core of their beings.

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.

Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

Now ICE knows they will get prosecuted for their crimes if the administration changes, more incentive for them to be active in preventing that change. πŸ˜–

AOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doorsβ€”they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.

Can anyone help a non native speaker out: what does the phrase β€œto put a sign in the window” mean or refer to other than the literal meaning of putting out a public notice?

She sums it up pretty nicely. She’s right to be angry certainly after the condescending knickers and β€œstrong opinion” remarks.
