Almost every interview I've given since October 7 has to begin with "do you condemn?" Are you out of your minds? Yeah I condemn. I condemn the aparteid state, that has been engaged in a sadistic type of genocide for almost eight decades, that's what I condemn. You want me to condemn the people that are subjected to these crimes when they stand up?

My latest project is to check an old cedar fence nearby, which is already decaying, for lichens.
I have found some really beautiful lichens, one of which is this Common Clam lichen (Hypocenomyce scalaris).
This lichen consists mainly of small lobes (squamules) that look like clams, very rarely this lichen produces apothecia.
On the second photo you can even see these apothecia (black round dots with grey rims).

Over 2,000 senior staff set to leave NASA under agency push – Politico

Over 2,000 senior staff set to leave NASA under agency pushThe losses could endanger the administration’s plans for landing astronauts on the moon and Mars.

At least 2,145 senior-ranking NASA employees are set to leave under a push to shed staff, according to documents obtained by POLITICO — potentially spelling trouble for White House space policy and depriving the agency of decades of experience.
The 2,145 employees are those in GS-13 to GS-15 positions — senior-level government ranks that are typically reserved for those with specialized skills or management responsibilities. The losses are particularly concentrated at higher levels, with 875 GS-15 employees set to leave, according to the documents.
Those 2,145 employees, in turn, make up the bulk of the 2,694 civil staff who have agreed to leave NASA under a slate of offers that fall within broader administration efforts to trim the federal workforce, according to the documents. NASA has offered staff early retirement, buyouts and deferred resignations.
Many of those leaving also serve in NASA’s core mission sets, according to the documents. Those leaving include 1,818 staff serving in mission areas like science or human space flight, with the rest performing mission support roles like IT, facilities management or finance.
“You’re losing the managerial and core technical expertise of the agency,” said Casey Dreier, chief of space policy at The Planetary Society. “What’s the strategy and what do we hope to achieve here?”
The departures follow a proposed White House budget for 2026 that would slash NASA’s funding by 25 percent and cut over 5,000 staff. The cuts, if enacted by Congress, would force the agency to operate with the smallest budget and staff since the early 1960s.
The losses are spread across each of NASA’s 10 regional centers, where much of the agency’s work is done and which focus on everything from planning astronaut missions to the moon to sending out deep space probes.
The Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland is set to lose the most staff at 607; Johnson Space Center in Texas will lose 366 staff; Kennedy Space Center in Florida will lose 311; and NASA headquarters in Washington will lose 307. Langley Research Center in Virginia will lose 281, Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama will lose 279, and Cleveland’s Glenn Research Center will lose 191 staff.

The image features a political-themed graphic with a yellow background. In the center, there is a large sign with the word "TRUMP" in bold blue letters, accompanied by the slogan "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!" in smaller blue text. The sign is framed with a red border and stars at the top and bottom, resembling a campaign banner.
On the left side of the image, there is a silhouette of a person in a suit, facing the sign. On the right side, there are two silhouetted figures wearing red caps, with one figure appearing to bow and pray, while the other stands beside them. Below the figures, there are two raised hands, suggesting a gesture of supplication.
The image includes text at the top and bottom. The top text reads, "AND THE IDIOTS BOWED AND PRAYED," and the bottom text states, "TO THE ORANGE GOD THEY MADE." The text is in white, with a shadow effect, making it stand out against the yellow background. The overall composition of the image conveys a critical message about the political figure represented by the sign.

There is “something” deviously wrong with mainstream media. It’s “like” they don’t care about Women and democracy or anything but money.
In Mexico, a coalition of catholic young Women and boys elected a Jewish socialist who identifies as a Woman.
Seems like something “american” Women would be interested in, but who am I to say?

A imagem é uma ilustração em estilo cartunizado de um personagem masculino com cabelos grisalhos, vestindo um terno preto e gravata. Ele tem uma expressão de admiração e rubor, com as bochechas coradas e um olhar fixo, sugerindo que está olhando para algo que o impressiona. O personagem tem um dedo na boca, como se estivesse pensativo ou surpreso. Ao fundo, há estrelas brilhantes, indicando um momento de inspiração ou admiração. Há um balão de fala com a frase "EU GOL PARA S...", que é cortada, sugerindo que o personagem está falando algo importante. A imagem é acompanhada de uma legenda em português que diz: "Bolsonaro olhando pra tela do celular, vendo notícias do tarifão, ruborizado e ofegante sussurrando 'Tru... Trump-kun...' 👍👉". A imagem é uma sátira política, com o personagem representando Jair Bolsonaro, e a legenda faz uma referência humorística à admiração de Bolsonaro por Donald Trump.

It should be either "1 - 3 pm" or "from 1 to 3 pm," don't you think?
Not saying that I never make grammatical errors; I do all the time. But this is more about logics. "from 1 - 3 pm" doesn't make sense.
