Yup! Without the trades for Tyreek Hill, Bradley Chubb, and Jalen Ramsey, we wouldn’t have these 🙏😇😊🥹
If there’s one thing I’ve learned as a #Dolphins fan, it’s that trades for big name players that cost you high picks and big contracts ALWAYS work out for you!!!
Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
Getting real tired of "AI will revolutionize your workflow!" I am a scientist! I do what I do because I want to dig into things myself. I don't want offload that labor onto a computer, and I don't need to accelerate the rate at which I work, because the point of the work is to learn.
Oh, oh no!!! But she seemed so cool!!! 😫😫😫 #Artemis
NASA reminded us all that, even in the darkest of times, our flag is still there. 🇺🇸 ❤️
NASA science faces 'very serious threat' from new White House budget, experts say www.space.com/astronomy/na...
Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October.
Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year.
Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce.
Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.
A newborn sperm whale is held up by its family as it takes its first breath in our #PictureOfTheWeek.
The entire birth was captured on camera off the coast of Dominica, giving researchers new insight into sperm whale behavior.

The Artemis II mission launching.
A reminder that the entire NASA budget is 0.37% of the U.S. government's annual spending.
That's one two-hundred-and-seventieth of the yearly federal budget.

Student: "Will this be on the exam?"
It’s brutal in academia right now. A lot is out of our control, but it doesn’t cost anything to remember that there are humans behind papers and grants…reviewers, program officials and funders can be more empathetic in the face of unprecedented chaos in the US scientific enterprise.
Remove. Him. From. Office.
The lunar surface fills the frame in sharp detail, as seen during the Artemis II lunar flyby, while a distant Earth sets in the background. This image was captured at 6:41 p.m. EDT, on April 6, 2026, just three minutes before the Orion spacecraft and its crew went behind the Moon and lost contact with Earth for 40 minutes before emerging on the other side. The dark portion of Earth is experiencing nighttime, while on its day side, swirling clouds are visible over the Australia and Oceania region. In the foreground, Ohm crater shows terraced edges and a relatively flat floor marked by central peaks — formed when the surface rebounded upward during the impact that created the crater.

the thing about a publicly funded space program is that you get to be represented by these people as opposed to, say, Jeff Bezos's second wife
Social media apps as Lord of the Rings characters, a thread:
Twitter: Twitter is Gollum. Began as a normal halfling. Overexposure to evil left it thin and stretched and bitter.
description from Huntington library: "A lithograph printed on heavy paper. Satirical "death certificate" issued for the Southern Confederacy. Mourning border, each line in different typeface, with: Died, Near the South-Side Rail Road, / on Sunday, April 9th, 1865, / The Southern Confederacy, / Aged Four Years, / Conceived in Sin, Born in iniquity, Nurtured by Tyranny, Died of / a Chronic Attack of Punch. / Abraham Lincoln, Attending Physician. / U.S. Grant, Undertaker. / Jeff Davis, Chief Mourner. Below in smaller print an epitaph that ends with: And this one line shall grace your grave-- / Your death gave freedom to the slave." https://hdl.huntington.org/digital/collection/p16003coll6/id/5033
to all who celebrate...
That would be a great use of a 4th round pick. Hedge, baby! Hedge those QB bets!
If you see this, post a character from space
Also of note, Iowa paid Chris Rufo—perhaps the leading propagandist for the current assault on higher ed, an unqualified hack and admitted fabulist—$34,000 to speak. It's embarrassing that any higher ed institution would invite him, especially when they are cutting departmental budgets.
I work with a connected group (of mainly moms) who are fighting to counteract the toxic influence of Moms For Liberty and their dark money backing
The effort in Florida is so great, they’re forming county by county subgroups!
There are more of us than there are of them!

reposting with alt so i can share!
just to be clear, everyone, when 8 pm EDT comes and goes, regardless of what does or does not happen, the president still threatened genocide and war crimes and we should still impeach, arrest, and try him
I’m with you, cautiously optimistic
Delaying booking a return flight back to my house in case my idiot president launches a nuclear war tonight. Even if he eats shit and walks away tonight, don't let anyone forget how fucking stupid this moment was. Don't let kids forget how close we are to annihilation, provided we make it.
25th amendment. Impeachment. I will support any avenue to remove Donald Trump from office. We cannot leave this man in charge of America’s nuclear weapons as he threatens to end an entire civilization. And Congress must not fund this reckless administration.
