Satellite proposals threaten the night sky In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the agency responsible for authorizing satellite launches and operations…

Please comment at "a critical moment" as the FCC considers "satellite proliferation at unprecedented scales and technologies that pose serious risks to the nighttime environment." Comment period for SpaceX closes March 6 & Reflect Orbital March 9. Instructions: darksky.org/news/two-sat...

Abstract Anthropogenic activities are increasing the amount of carbon dioxide (COz) in the atmosphere. There is mounting experimental evidence that lifetime exposure to these increasing atmospheric COz levels can negatively impact the normal physiology of organisms. However, directly assessing this in humans is very difficult. We analysed serum bicarbonate (HCO*), calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) levels from the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 3020 as indirect proxies for atmospheric COz exposure. Over this period, average bicarbonate levels in this population show an increasing trend which parallels rising atmospheric COz concentrations. Both Ca and P have decreased steadily over the same period. If these trends continue, blood bicarbonate values could be at the limit of the accepted healthy range in half a century, and Ca and P will be at the limit of their healthy ranges by the end of this century. Studies indicate that, after this time, elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide, leading to CO2 accumulation in the body, has the potential to cause a range of adverse health effects. These findings highlight the urgent need for significant reductions in anthropogenic COz emissions to safeguard public health.

“Average bicarbonate levels in [the blood of] this population show an increasing trend which parallels rising atmospheric CO2concentrations … If these trends continue, blood bicarbonate values could be at the limit of the accepted healthy range in half a century.”

These children died for Trump's greed and literally nothing else

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

This point, in particular.

They can't repeal science. What on earth did they actually repeal and why is it being reported this way?

BALINT: Was the president aware of Secretary Lutnick's ties to Epstein when he chose him to lead the Department of Commerce?

BONDI: Chris Malen was a Border Patrol agent----


BALINT: So I'm going to conclude that he did know!

BONDI: Shame on you

BALINT: This is pathetic! This is not a game

Not normal. Not ok.

Bizarre.

She is the AG - we don't care what her take on the stock market is. We have other people for that.

Millennials are worried we will have to work forever and actually are trying to take care of themselves so we can and keep any dependents safe, too.

😳🫣😳

There are real consequences to making the border one huge military installation. This seems like it's one of them. Have DoT and DoD not coordinated what to do about civilian airflights if DoD uses C-UAS near airports, as will now increasingly be the case? Seems not.

With Ring, American Consumers Built a Surveillance Dragnet Ring's 'Search Party' is dystopian surveillance accelerationism.

NEW: Ring has introduced "Search Party", a horrifyingly dystopian feature nominally designed to turn all of the Ring cameras in a neighborhood into a dragnet that uses AI to look for, in their commercial, a cute lost dog.

With Ring, US consumers are actually building a surveillance dragnet.

We are proud to unveil the world’s longest underwater timelapse, starting May 1st 2023 and running 1,000 days through January 28, 2026. This 10fps period covers summer 2023’s coral bleaching mortality event, but then recovering and growing through ‘24 & ‘25 into ‘26 #coralcitycamera

It’s so funny to have been saying “the only difference between the US and China when it comes to surveillance is their surveillance state is government sanctioned, we do it willingly to ourselves” for six years and see the TL blowing up about the Ring cameras **now**

I have a question for the men who had no questions about Epstein The millions of pages of documents related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein have shone a light on how many influential men were ready to disregard the experiences of countless women.

His voice...

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Ummmmm

just like how California is working on passing a bill that bans ICE from becoming in-state teachers or law enforcement officers, we need to work on States banning ANYONE named in the Epstein files from serving in government.

we also need to pass bills to freeze assets and investigate.

It's the test I trust and the company I've ordered from consistently the past 2 years. Better validity and lower cost than other rapid antigen tests.

I do not receive any revenue from any product or company, just a good deal.

@skyejethani.bsky.social - did you see this article, that Rick Warren cowrote a book w a germ theory denier? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Also germ theory denial. :(

“The Entire City's in This Sort of State of Siege:” A Conversation With A Minneapolis ICE Tracker Important Context spoke with attorney Will Stancil, who has been tracking ICE in his city.

“What is happening here in Minnesota as a result is that basically the entire non-white population is afraid to go outside. It’s awful. Our schools are about 50 percent absenteeism. Sometimes it’s 70 percent.” — @whstancil.bsky.social
