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.
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:
They are taking back campaign promises faster than they made them.
lots of devastation and negativity on the feed today.

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.
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:

marvel rivals making a male character: give him the most creative kit ever seen in the shooter genre

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.
Black Mirror is starting to look a bit over optimistic
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...

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.

Turns out those scenes were almost bang on.
The unrealistic part was the humans working together to overcome the problem & save the world. Sigh.
still love how much GDQ messages so often sound like the scrolling text in a game crack intro screen from the 90s
