This week in preschool we're exploring bugs that live in gardens. I'll have to show them this photo (and learn about mantis-flies).

Elon Musk has already started plans to launch a million satellites.

Yes. A MILLION.

This is a colossally bad idea, and it's not too late to make your voice heard. I explain everything:

Rampant growth of satellite mega constellations could ruin the night sky

Satellites are wonders of modern technology that have improved all of our lives. But having more than a million of them in orbit could destroy our view of the heavens and seriously damage our planet

Moritz von Schwind’s Cat Symphony (1868) was made as a gift for a violinist friend and fellow member of the Black Cats society.

@jik the UK's stance, in light of what is known, is sensible. They are on alert to protect themselves from reprisals, but they are not escalating attacks.

The sensibility of Trump's stance is a different issue. He only takes action to enrich himself - he is not controlled by Israel. Snyder's piece addressing gulf state corruption seems plausible.

As for Constitutionality, that only arises if Congress and/or the courts are willing to do their jobs. Until then, laws are just words on paper.

The Iranian regime has aggressively sponsored terrorism and proxy wars around the world for decades. Starmer's statement cites 20 attempts in the UK within the last year. Iran has also propped up Russia's war against Ukraine/Europe.

Multiple negotiations have failed to stop bloodshed. How long should the world turn a blind eye?
