What do these photos have in common?

They show invisible borders between Schengen countries. No checks, no stops, just freedom of movement.

In 2025, we celebrate 40 years of the Schengen Agreement, a milestone that has reshaped how 450+ million people live, work, and travel.

Schengen means:
✅ Seamless mobility
✅ Economic opportunity
✅ Shared security

It’s a symbol of unity and freedom, every day.

I've never wanted it to rain on someone's parade more than tomorrow.
Some pretties from the garden

The rain finally came today, ripping off petals and flattening the poppies. But before it really got stuck in, I managed to sneak in… As the Sun dropped down over the horizon it lit up this b…

This is not good.

The US is pulling personnel out of countries in the middle east as one would typically do as a prelude to war.

Asked about it, Trump replies that it is because Iran can't be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon. This could indicate that the US (and its ally Israel) is about to attack Iran in such an impactful way, that they expect significant retaliatory strikes in the region.

I suspect, the world is about to get a lot more complicated.

What a great Sc-Fi TV show. With an invisible girl whispering into the ear of the prime agitator.
Who would have thought it was a forecast of our future.

I see that the Marines are being told they can "detain" people while waiting for police to arrive to "arrest" them.

I would mention that our very own SCOTUS says that if a person is not free to leave then that person is under arrest and must be given a Miranda warning.

Now --- here we have the Army or Marines "detaining" people - people who are not free to leave - and probably not giving Miranda warnings.

As such, were I the defense counsel, I would move for exclusion of all evidence gathered post "detention" as inadmissible because of lack of Miranda warning.

Police, ill as they sometimes are, are trained and often quite skilled in the obligations imposed by our Fourth Amendment. Marines are not.

The more I learn about atmospheric chemistry, the more terrified and angry I am about satellite companies' blatant lack of consideration for how their actions will harm the atmosphere. I hope this gets a lot of press. Great work by a whole team of scientists, including @astrokiwi.bsky.social!

Near-future rocket launches could slow ozone recovery | npj Climate and Atmospheric Science

Rocket emissions thin the stratospheric ozone layer. To understand if significant ozone losses could occur as the launch industry grows, we examine two scenarios. Our ‘ambitious’ scenario (2040 launches/year) yields a −0.29% depletion in annual-mean, near-global total column ozone in 2030. Antarctic springtime ozone decreases by 3.9%. Our ‘conservative’ scenario (884 launches/year) yields −0.17% annual, near-global depletion; current licensing rates suggest this scenario may be exceeded before 2030. Ozone losses are driven by the chlorine produced from solid rocket motor propellant, and black carbon which is emitted from most propellants. The ozone layer is slowly healing from the effects of CFCs, yet global-mean ozone abundances are still 2% lower than measured prior to the onset of CFC-induced ozone depletion. Our results demonstrate that ongoing and frequent rocket launches could delay ozone recovery. Action is needed now to ensure that future growth of the launch industry and ozone protection are mutually sustainable.

When did you ever hear the BBC stating that it must alter “story selection” and “other types of output, such as drama”, to win the trust of Green voters, or of unrepresented people on the left? All the shifts are in just one direction. bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...
