Martian Memories

Five years ago on this day, April 19, 2021, first flight of Ingenuity, the little Mars Helicopter, at Van Zyl Overlook in Jezero Crater. The historic moment is captured by Perseverance with her Mastcam Zoom camera. #Mars 🧪🔭

Good morning Bluesky.

Say hello to our resident Orca, in front of the Seattle waterfront during a gorgeous PNW sunset. He was traveling with his family and T034s, T037/T037Bs. Those little ones in the pods are always the most playful ones. We love our whales. This photo should be a poster!

Khanna to Maria Bartiromo: "Barack Obama was a great statesman who left America much safer. I wouldn't put Donald Trump in the same paragraph. Obama actually did his homework ... all Donald Trump did is listen to Netanyahu. That's his entire foreign policy."

Disagree. GOP just captured the 33% of Americans who travel in hate. It’s a big tent of racists, misogynists, white collar criminals, rapist, White Supremacists, low IQs, religious freaks, pedophiles, corporate raiders, domestic abusers & grifters. The worst of the worst. They just relate to Trump.

There is no doubt that the reliability of the USA since Trump has taken office has massively suffered, politically, economically and militarily. It will eventually lead to more countries detaching themselves from Washington.

Somebody posting something on a public platform is shrieking about somebody taking a screen shot of what they just posted? Sounds like a problem for the shrieker. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Public is the key word here.

Yep. It’s heartbreaking. Only in America where corporate greed is valued more than human life. 💔

Did you know that as head of state, threatening war crimes IS a war crime?

Atlantic current shows two-decade decline across four deep-ocean monitoring sites A paper published in the journal Science Advances is adding to the growing body of research showing that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is weakening. In this new study, instead of relying mainly on computer models, scientists used two decades of direct ocean measurements to confirm the decline.

Atlantic Ocean sensors confirm a consistent two-decade decline in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. Data from four mooring arrays across the western boundary verify a weakening transport signal below 1,000 meters, validating concerns of long-term circulation shifts.

The DOJ is now 5 month in breach of releasing the Epstein files.

Holding these criminals accountable should be the Nuremberg of our time.

He might as well answer in Russian.

10 children were shot today in Shreveport, LA and 8 of them died. The police chief just doesn’t know how something like this could ever happen. But I think he knows exactly how something like this could happen and it has to do with the > 393 million guns in this country w/ very little regulation.

The Film That Explains Contemporary America “The Sorrow and the Pity” has lessons for how authoritarianism takes root—and how to fight against it.

"Restoring democracy required opponents of fascism—nationalists, republicans, and Communists—to work together despite serious misgivings about one another’s views. Purity tests had to wait until the war was over."

Elias Law Group is currently litigating 87 voting and election cases in 44 states and the District of Columbia. It is no exaggeration to say that the future of free and fair elections and democracy is on the docket.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

One day in the fight for democracy The Trump administration badly wants these records from all 50 states and has sued 30 states that refused its demands. My law firm is fighting the DOJ in all of them.

Days like Friday are a testament not only to the lawyers I work with but also to our clients. The voters who are standing up and the institutions that are fighting back play no small role in protecting democracy. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/one-...

BREAKING: New data shows ZERO oil tankers passed through the Strait of Hormuz today, signaling what appears to be a complete shutdown of the Strait for the first time in history.

The Strait normally carries about 20% of the world’s oil supply.

I learned today is #NationalCatLadyDay from MapTap - love that game! I became an accidental crazy cat lady 17 years ago when I became the cat rescue house in my neighborhood. Found homes for many, but a few never left. This is Mr. Pickles. A smart, sweet feral who stole my heart & stayed. 🩵🐈‍⬛

Nature is amazing. 🩵

This woman feels evil. Something is really off about Erica Kirk.
