Happy vernal equinox (Spring!) from the @thenrao.bsky.social's Very Large Array!

I'm currently doing a lightning reread of @jimbutcher.bsky.social's Dresden Files. More of a skim-thru for the first 8 books or so. Prepping for what I imagine is going to be a painful read of 12 Months. Currently a few books away from Changes, and bracing for the reread of Battle Ground 💔

Apparently Republican Jesus is the only valid Jesus now. SMFH

Good luck to you today! (Not a constituent, just a fan)

Only in Magdalena NM would one get this mass email:

"Did somebody’s pig get poached? Why is there a head cut off of a pig at the Hop Canyon/Kelly Rd intersection? It has a yellow tag in its ear. If you need a photo for identification purposes, you can email me at [email].
Peace and love,
Nicole"

Now is the time to choose between fatalism and optimistic nihilism. The latter is more fun, but harder to maintain.

Operation Epic FUBAR is going swimmingly, doncha think? I feel like only the dumbest of the dumb are falling for this. And yet the whole system set up to prevent this from happening has been hamstrung.

Our government is truly broken.

This Massive Telescope Searches For Life In The Universe YouTube video by TDC

A really good overview of the Green Bank Observatory, and how this massive antenna operates. We visited the site back in 2001, but we were civilians at the time and didn't get to go up close. Now that we're 'in', hopefully one day we'll be able to tour the dish itself.

I was particularly disturbed by agreeing with Matt Walsh on something. None of them will admit they were wrong about anything, of course

Moon during eclipse

Granted, I didn't wake up for the totality. But on the bus this morning, everyone else is on their phones or napping, while THIS is still happening. How do you not just stare out at this‽
