A starfield filled with thousands of stars and shining clouds of dust. The Milky Way\u2019s elegant spiral structure is dominated by just two arms wrapping off the ends of a central bar of stars. Spanning more than 100,000 light-years, Earth is located along one of the galaxy\u2019s spiral arms, about halfway from the center. Credit: NASA

Independence Lake north of Truckee, #California was on private timber company land, which put it up for sale. Larry Ellison wanted to buy it as a private lake for his billionarity, but the company instead sold it to the Tahoe Donner Land Trust. Now it has trails and free kayak use for the public!

We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.

PETITION: Don't Let the Federal Government Regulate Your Reading
Not one country's freedom and liberty has ever been increased by banning books.
The Federal Book Ban bill uses funding threats to pressure schools to remove books.
Federal control over local policy - and federal control of reading, writing, and publishing - is unacceptable.
Sign the petition to stop it. action.everylibrary.org/hr_7661 via @everylibrary.bsky.social

The cover of The Complete Persepolis by Marianne Satrapi.
Now would be a good time for anyone who wants to learn about recent Iranian history to read this. It is well worth your time and money (I am sure your local library has it if you don’t want to purchase it).

Ghislaine Maxwell got into jail for engaging in pedophilia and sex trafficking.
Ghislaine Maxwell hopes to get out of jail by engaging in extortion.
I'm beginning to get the impression that Ghislaine Maxwell enjoys criming.
