🔭 The Rubin Observatory’s alert system sent 800,000 pings on its first night
｢ The Vera C. Rubin Observatory’s automated alert system is online and already bombarding astronomers with things to look at in the night sky. The system went live publicly on Tuesday, February 24th, and on the first night dropped some 800,000 alerts about asteroids, supernovas, and feasting black holes. And that number is only expected to climb to the multiple millions per night ｣

The only two questions to ask your politician these mid-terms.
Will we have a full accounting of the Epstein Files and will there be trials?
Will we have accountability and trials for ICE agents that violated people's rights?
If the answer isn't a RESOUNDING YES on both of those, you will not get my vote.
PERIOD. I don't care what your party affiliation is (though I'm sure it won't be the pandering GOP).

on parle trop rarement de l'attente comme forme de violence administrative infligée par l'État aux personnes exilées. Pourtant, n'importe quelle personne sans-papiers ou demandeureuses d'asile la mentionne systématiquement comme l'une des principales raisons d'un syndrome anxio-dépressif.
En comptant en plus toutes les insécurités conséquentes (argent, logement), c'est de la torture psychologique en plus d'être un non-sens politique sur tous les plans. Toustes aimeraient pouvoir taffer légalement, reprendre des études, "s'intégrer" dans la société. Mais non, l'État préfère les maintenir pendant des années dans la clandestinité et l'ultra-précarité pour mieux les asservir à des tafs de sous-fifres et même dégrader encore plus leur peu de droits.
Et inventer en parallèle des paniques médiatiques pour dire que les immigrés sont coupables de tous les maux. Ça rend ouf

Great to see this published. An 18,000 year record of deep water temperatures on the Amundsen Sea continental shelf, which confirms that incursion of warm water onto the shelf has been the main driver of West Antarctic Ice Sheet retreat throughout deglaciation. About 10,000 years ago the amount of warm water on the shelf decreased and subsequent ice sheet retreat was very slow, until the warm water incursion increased again in the mid 20th century. Excellent work led by Elaine Mawbey and @shelfyice

Dreams of The Mad Frank: Part 1 The Flag Lady
#FanFic #TheApothecaryDiaries
#Wss366 Flesh #MastoPrompt Inadaquet
The beggar woman sat in a shaded corner. Her cheeks were sallow from her #inadaquet diet of rice, wild grasses, and scraps that people left her. Years of poverty had eaten away at her #flesh until she appeared to be little more than a skeleton under many layers of her tattered robes.
As people walked by, she held out a bowl containing a few stray coins. Accustomed as they were to beggars, her missing arm evoked little sympathy. It was better not to notice beggars.
Her eyes remained dull until children happened by, and then she came alive. From her robes, she would produce bright strings of flags with a dexterity that belied her emaciation. If the parents looked to have money, she produced a dove to delight the child. This might secure her a few more coins, which she would carefully hide to avoid being robbed. The courtesans of Verdigris House and neighboring brothels called her The Flag Lady or just Flag.
Truthfully, she did well at her trade—both of them.
All the time she sought alms, she kept a close watch on “The Mad Frank,” noting anyone who spoke to him. But when Maomao appeared, Flag lowered her head and ceased performing. “Alas, I am too feeble,” she would moan.
In the evening, a man who was half-jokingly referred to as the street steward and his son came by to collect his share. The beggar would perform a few tricks for the son and conclude by saying, “Nothing more.” If anyone had cared to watch closely, the sum she passed the father had little to do with the amount she earned: one, two, three, or four coins. The amount varied not in proportion to her income, but to the number of visitors The Frank had.
The Mad Frank's Dreams: Part 2 Coin Trick
#FanFic #TheApothecaryDiaries
#Wss366 Forlorn #MastoPrompt Mush
Days passed. Rumors that the Moon Prince had been ill arose and then subsided. On this particular day, a #forlorn rain fell. Few people were out to tread the #mushy churned road, yet both Flag and The Mad Frank were plying their trade. The former sought aid from passersby, while the latter sought to save their souls. Neither was having any luck.
Late morning came, and one of The Frank's few "regulars" stopped to speak with him. Soon after, The Frank disappeared, and then the beggar vanished as well.
She was back by evening to do tricks for the street steward’s son. Among these, she extracted a larger coin than usual from the boy’s ear. “Ah, Flag sees you’re holding out on the boss,” she said, and passed the coin to the father, being careful not to reveal the note hidden behind it.
Alternatives to US tech platforms • Cory Dransfeldt
With the US rapidly devolving into a failed state with the endorsement (both full-throated and tepid) of many tech leaders, I’d urge you to reconsider your use of any tech platforms and tools offered by companies based here.Cory Dransfeldt
