If β€œmenning” doesn’t enter the mainstream vocabulary after this cursed Friday the 13th men’s free Olympic shitshow, it never will #MilanoCortina2026

Comic. My experience seeing the Northern Lights: [Graph: x axis is increasing time, y axis is increasing aurora coolness, going from visible glow on the horizon, color only visible in photos -> sheets and pillars of light, colors faintly visible -> β€œoh wow, it’s getting really bright now.” -> spectacular ribbons of color spanning the sky and illuminating the landscape. Graph shows dips and peaks over many hours with the topmost peeks for only around 5 or 10 minutes.] [caption] Aurora tip: If you get good views of the aurora, keep watching the sky; you might suddenly get great ones.

is it a good sign that 2 people you've invited to be on your "Board of Peace" can't join you in Switzerland because they would be arrested for war crimes?

After viewing the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota- he then proceeds to lie about EVERYTHING in it, aside from the fact that it is, indeed, "a horrible thing to watch."

NEW: Iran’s capital, Tehran, is now BURNING

110 cities across Iran have seen unrest and protests against the ruling regime in the last 12 days

The only thing more remarkable than the scale of this revolution is the negligence of mainstream media in covering it.

Scenes below in Tehran tonight.

NASA Will Bring I.S.S. Astronauts Home Early After Medical Issue After canceling a spacewalk planned for Thursday, the space agency’s administrator said it was erring on the side of caution and bringing a crew of four home in the coming days.

NASA said it would bring four astronauts home early from the International Space Station because of a medical issue.

Maduro being terrible does not magically make Trump’s actions legal. International law still exists. US law still exists. Trump said it was about oil. Facts don’t cancel each other out.

One major problem, bluntly, is that lots of folks can't distinguish between good writing and poor writing. This is about education, not intelligence: they could learn the difference, but it's frequently not taught, even in "good" schools. This is ultimately a competitive disadvantage for them.

A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS. He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before. May Rob and Michele rest in peace!

Anticiclone in rinforzo.

not only did they pull out of the competition, they are not airing eurovision on any broadcasting channels in these countries either.
eurovision will lose MILLIONS of viewers and so much money.
