An astrophysicist and a neurosurgeon concluded that the human brain and the universe basically grow as a result of similar physical principles. Today’s House of Study goody looks at a myriad of similar connections, with many exquisite photos:
Legit surprised how many people seem to be enjoying that Glowworm thread. Y'all will end up with one on HMS Ledbury if you're not careful.
Somehow the more streaming services you've got the less there is to watch.
$1,131,794,901 That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns. Well, the planet is burning. Don't let them look away.
they said in 2025 i will say "Heavens to betsy" . I wont be incorporating the phrase "Heavens to betsy" into my posts, not in 2025, not ever
im sorry for re-posting that television`s ed mcmahon was seen running full speed into one of the fires. that was chinese disinformation
ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change. Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk: www.noaa.gov/noaa-wildfir...
DEI is the bogeyman for those who believe that if I’m gaining, they must be losing. The idea that everything would be fine if only white men ran the world is a weak argument—clung to by insecure men who can’t handle reality. DEI ensures women & BIPOC are looked at fairly IN ADDITION to white men.
lots of devastation and negativity on the feed today. i know this won’t solve anything, but maybe it’ll make someone smile and just forget for a small moment. the beauty of the cosmos 🌌

Lawyers for Liz Truss have asked me to stop saying Liz Truss crashed the economy. I only said Liz Truss crashed the economy because Liz Truss did crash the economy. If she wanted me to not say Liz Truss crashed the economy, she shouldn’t have crashed the economy. Please don’t share.
The devastation in California is apocalyptic. The images are heartbreaking. At least 5 fires continue to burn without containment. I’m grateful for the bravery of not only the first responders, but every day people who have been helping others, including animals, evacuate to safer locations.
I was interviewed at CES this morning. We mentioned that consumers will decide whether they want to be on a platform that is “unfiltered free speech “ or “ moderated”. I mentioned that I loved , and spontaneously people started clapping 🔥.
Every time I listen to BBC World Service radio I'm reminded how excellent it is. A comparatively balanced, nuanced, global perspective that we don't get to see much of from many other newsrooms.
It’s a Mel Brooks piece up in here… High Anxiety!
gosh I wonder if this could possibly have something to do with something that rhymes with Blot Smennings

i’m kind of amazed at how this is just the crudest, most obvious n****rbaiting you can imagine. “the people you don’t like, yeah, they are responsible for everything bad.” and it works!
Getting increasingly irritated by publications without BlueSky as a sharing option, especially if X is there. I'm trying to promote your article on a site that actually allows people to see it. Help me help you man.

I lost an argument with an American.
Billy Crystal lost the Pacific Palisades house where he had lived since 1979. Jamie Lee Curtis, James Woods and Mark Hamill were among other celebrities forced to evacuate as fires in LA swept across some of the most lavish real estate in the world reut.rs/4282OSr
Studio City Fire Knocked Down. Way to go
They are taking back campaign promises faster than they made them.
A key thing to appreciate about big wildfires is that they reach an intensity that humans simply can't deal with. Sometimes they are about 10 times more intense than the best firefighters and planes can fight. Offer as much money as you want: it's too late. www.ft.com/content/540f...
Imagine watching disaster movies like The Day After Tomorrow or 2012 and thinking that the apocalyptic weather scenes were the “unrealistic” part. Turns out those scenes were almost bang on. The unrealistic part was the humans working together to overcome the problem & save the world. Sigh.
These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer. These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP. You can follow his remarkable reporting here👇 www.instagram.com/ethanswopeph...

Sure Happy It’s Thursday! What song is stuck in your head right now?
Rate his cuteness out of 10 ❤️
Rock songs in the 70s were like "She's a dangerous woman, she'll play you like a fiddle, she'll steal your heart and ruin your life. She's 16."
