Mike Johnson’s defense of Trump’s open corruption is a disgrace and an insult to every American who demands accountability. Defending theft and lies isn’t leadership—it’s enabling a criminal. This madness has to stop. #Corruption #Accountability #TrumpWatch www.yahoo.com/news/mike-jo...

If you didn't want courts to repeatedly find that you did war crimes, I would simply stop asking courts to look into whether or not you did war crimes.
But I would start by simply not doing war crimes.

Although you can never escape the event horizon of a black hole, the environment around a black hole can generate ultra-fast winds that carry gas and dust at a significant fraction of the speed of light. It was always assumed these winds would be smooth and continuous, but new research shows that some winds can resemble rapid-fire streams of gas bullets. Astronomers saw winds going 20-30% the speed of light, made up of 5 distinct gas components, ejected like a geyser.

#art #history: in a sad coincidence, brian eno celebrates his 77th year as we honour the victims of the 1948 nakba. i'm sure it's a bittersweet time for him, as he's for many years been using his considerable platform to speak up, stand up & show up for palestinians.
his integrity makes his musical genius all the sweeter.
your oblique strategy? be more eno.
