“Devono tornare indietro le nostre ragazze e i nostri ragazzi senza un graffio. Da questa regione escono 13-14mila container all’anno per Israele. Non faremo uscire più nemmeno un chiodo.

The image features a striking and abstract depiction of a skull, prominently positioned in the center. The skull is rendered in a mix of black, white, and gray tones, with a textured appearance that suggests a digital or painted effect. The background is a vibrant collage of colors, including red, pink, yellow, and purple, with various patterns and shapes, such as eyes and circular motifs, adding to the complexity. The overall composition is dynamic, with a sense of movement and depth created by the overlapping elements and contrasting colors. The text "LYUMAKI BRAINWORM" is visible in the bottom right corner, likely indicating the artist or title. The image is rich in visual elements, combining abstract art with a skull motif, creating a bold and thought-provoking piece.

#history on a #world scale seems to go in about a three generation cycle. Regardless of the #tech going on it goes like this:
Generation one messes absolutely everything up, and a bunch of horrible #war happens and empires collapse.
Generations one/two pick up the pieces and swear that will never happen again, and try to teach their kids better.
Generation three doesn't remember first hand but generational trauma persists, they stop imprinting this trauma.
Repeat.
The video depicts a black and white scene of a fire burning on a circular surface, possibly a mat or a piece of fabric. The flames are intense, with bright orange and yellow hues contrasting against the dark background. The fire engulfs several objects, including what appears to be a book or a stack of papers, which are partially visible through the flames. The fire's movement is dynamic, with the flames flickering and dancing, consuming the materials. The surrounding area is indistinct, with the focus remaining on the fire and the burning objects. The video captures the progression of the fire, showing the materials being consumed and the flames growing in intensity.

Funny Signs! (8 Photos)
From autocorrect jokes on roadside boards to dog stick libraries and even a street post claiming to be Luke’s father—these signs bring humor into the most unexpected places. This collection of silly signs captures creative and funny moments spotted in everyday life.
More: Funny Signs! (18 Photos)
1. Gary Come Home — City Street, Unknown
A SpongeBob reference placed on a street pole calls for Gary the snail to come home, bringing cartoon humor to the sidewalk.
2. Dog Library — Neighborhood Park, USA
A playful wooden sign designates a ‘Dog Library’ where visitors can ‘take a stick, leave a stick’ for four-legged readers.
3. One Copy Per Child — Porch Library, USA
A front porch setup for Halloween offers free copies of George Orwell’s 1984, with a sign declaring ‘One copy of 1984 per child’ in place of candy.
4. Earthquake Detection Kit — School Wall, USA
Two googly eyes glued to a yellow paper under the title ‘Earthquake Detection Kit’—ready to wiggle at the slightest tremor. More!: The City Has Eyes (8 Photos)
5. Autocorrect Humor — Roadside, USA
A roadside sign pokes fun at autocorrect with a mistaken message about a ‘funnel’ being held ‘tomato’ instead of a funeral tomorrow.
6. Invisible — Street Performance, Europe
A witty sign promises an ‘invisible man with flip-flops,’ with only the footwear left visible for curious passersby.
7. No Entry Bar — Modified Street Sign, Europe
A no-entry traffic sign is altered with silhouettes, transforming the white bar into a counter at a neighborhood bar.
8. I Am Your Father — Street Corner, Europe
A clever Star Wars reference gives voice to a vent pipe, declaring to passersby: ‘Luke, I am your father.’

Funny Signs (20 Photos)
Some public signs tell you where to go or what to do. These ones? They play with expectations. From witty chalkboards and absurd flyers to poetic instructions and signs that lead nowhere, these 20 messages prove that a little humor or mystery goes a long way in urban spaces.
More: How Clever (8 Photos)
1. Take What You Need
A simple handwritten flyer reads “Love.” with an invitation: “(Take as much love as you need).” The tear-off tabs just say “LOVE.”
2. Lost My Brain
A satirical lost-and-found flyer features a red anatomical brain diagram and a caption: “Please don’t contact me, I’m happy.”
3. Bar Scene on a No Entry Sign
A creative modification of a no-entry traffic sign transforms the white bar into a bar counter. Three stick figures have been drawn onto the sign—one sitting on a bar stool holding a martini glass, chatting with two others standing beside the “counter.” This humorous intervention turns an ordinary traffic sign into a social vignette.
4. No King
5. Sleeping Bat Warning
Sign on a bookshop door says “Please open the door carefully as there is a bat sleeping on it,” with a real bat sleeping by the doorframe.About it: A Sleeping Bat at The Next Page Bookshop in Calgary Becomes an Unlikely Star
6. Showbiz Ruined Me — By Pao in Rome, Italy
A sculpture of SpongeBob looks heartbroken, sitting on the street with a cardboard sign: “Showbiz ruined me.”
7. Dog Library
A wooden sign beneath a tree offers: “Dog Library. Take a stick. Leave a stick.” The pile of branches says it all.
8. Have You Seen This Dog?
Two dog photos and the words: “Have you seen this dog?” Below: “Now you have. Have a GOOD day.” The tear-tabs? “Have a great day.”
9. Please Do Not Smile — New York City Subway, USA
Posted at 14th Street Station: “Please do not smile at strangers.” Whether real or a prank, it’s coldly hilarious.
10. Private Sign
Painted in bold white letters: “PRIVATE SIGN — DO NOT READ.” Naturally, it’s irresistible.
11. The Secret of Happiness
Painted across a long building, the message begins: “The secret of happiness is t—” and then the rest has peeled away.
12. Reboot Universe
At first glance, a standard pedestrian crossing button. But instead of “PUSH TO CROSS,” it reads: “REBOOT UNIVERSE.”
13. Beware of Smartphone Zombies
A modern caution sign warns: “BEWARE OF SMARTPHONE ZOMBIES,” with silhouettes of people walking while staring at their phones.
14. No Don Quixote
A traffic-style sign bans a rider on a horse with a lance—clearly referencing Don Quixote. Behind it: a real windmill.
15. Great Wheat Sharks — Anne Melady in Ontario, Canada
Shark fins appear to slice through a golden wheat field along Highway 8 west of Dublin, Ontario. Installed by 75-year-old landowner and retired nurse Anne Melady, the piece is titled Great Wheat Sharks. She created it to lighten the mood for drivers during the pandemic and continues the now-local tradition with humor and simplicity.More photos and about it: Please do not feed the Great Wheat Sharks
16. Is It Me You’re Looking For?
A flyer with the face of Lionel Richie and the lyrics from his hit song “Hello” is posted on a utility pole. The bottom of the flyer includes tear-off tabs, each printed with a different lyric fragment, playfully inviting passersby to take one. The setup mimics a typical “lost and found” poster but twists it into a street-level pun.
17. Kingdoms to Countries
On a pub chalkboard: “A long time ago we had Empires run by Emperors. Then we had Kingdoms run by Kings. Now we have Countries…”
18. Accompanied by an Adult
The sign boldly says: “All Americans must be accompanied by an adult.” No context. No problem.
19. Cigarette bin that doubles as a voting booth…
and a political roast all in one. People walk by, chuck in a butt, and suddenly it’s not just litter — it’s democracy with extra sass.
20. The Japanese text (ネコ飛出し注意) translates to “Watch out for jumping cats” or more literally “Caution: Cats dashing out”.
It’s a local road sign sometimes put up in Japanese neighborhoods where there are many stray or outdoor cats. The flying-cat graphics are just a playful way to show that cats might suddenly run across the street, so drivers should slow down and be careful.More: Urban Art Hacks (11 Photos)

It is an open question whether small #planets around M dwarfs are able to maintain atmospheres.
LTT 3780 b, an ultra-short period super-Earth, does not seem to suggest it is easy.
Its eclipse depth is consistent with the thermal emission from a bare rock surface, with a dayside temperature of 1140 K, some 98% of the maximum temperature predicted for a zero albedo, zero heat redistribution blackbody.
Atmospheres comprised of carbon dioxide are ruled out down to pressures of 0.01 bar, which corresponds to Martian atmospheric properties.

So I made a tool for managing little changes in code&text and it seems to run well enough now, so sharing.
The diff is like from `git diff --word-diff`, but you can automerge same-line edits, retain spacing&indentation from a selected version, and send the small edits around as patches. Also works great for #LaTeX and #markdown (merging these with plain git is pure pain).

"Twenty years ago, on August 29, 2005, a huge hurricane hit the Gulf Coast. New Orleans's levees failed, as had been predicted, and much of the city went underwater. Although the authorities had issued a mandatory evacuation order, they had provided no resources to the many who were too poor to evacuate. They were left behind."
