The atmosphere shields things living on Earth from radiation. High energy protons, alpha particles, gamma rays, x-rays etc. This radiation and the resulting ionization of the atmosphere is what causes the Northern lights. There aint nothing to shield you in space except what you bring from Earth.

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

This is discrimination against impatient people

It was good to get confirmation on this tonight!

Accidentally raptured into heaven with all the evangelicals and somehow one of them has already set up the worst barbecue place imaginable. There's a banner out front where the illustration depicts a pig that has a goatee and is wearing a handgun in a holster. Everything tastes like corn syrup.

How can you expect poor little Bill Belichick to take over UNC in his first year and immediately compete with UCF, which also has a first year head coach

I love what Russell Wilson is doing out there. The results aren't there yet, admittedly, but the process—sprinting in place for four seconds and then throwing the ball off the goal post at 107mph—is sound. Stay the course. This is for sure going to work.

To the 31 House Democrats who voted with Trump: I would never vote to disenfranchise your constituents, undermine their democratic rights, or impose harsher penalties on them against their will. Regrettably, you have done exactly that to my constituents and legislative body. Shame 😪

I can’t tell you what happened with the murder of Charlie Kirk, but there’s a larger issue not being discussed. In moments of authoritarian crisis, the environment is ripe for accelerationists to inflame tensions for their own purposes. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/the-opport...

i say this about once every six months but that final A Tribe Called Quest record is truly extraordinary. could make a legitimate case that it is their best record, which by default makes it one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time

We're close to reaching a chilling moment; the first time in history where the single largest group of people arrested by ICE in the interior and held in detention are people with no criminal record. The gap is now down to fewer than 300 people.

It's full steam ahead for NASA, according to Sean Duffy, the agency's acting administrator. During an internal employee town hall, Duffy warned of "letting safety be the enemy of progress" when it comes to winning the space race, according to a recording obtained by NBC News.

ah yes, politics, that realm of human affairs where drama and emotional catharsis are to be avoided

it's got to be kind of a trip to be one of the 700 or so best people in the world at your profession, probably the best of anyone you knew growing up and into college, the elite among the elite at your calling, and then watch this guy outperform you, like, exponentially better than you ever could

The U.S. Secretary of Energy does not know that electricity is energy. I'm glad we've gotten rid of DEI programs and are now giving America the leadership it deserves.

Perhaps you are unmoved by Gov Gav’s shittiness toward trans people? Well, fear not! There are so many other ways he’s terrible!

one sign that the “unitary executive” is less the restoration of an older constitutional order and more the imposition of a radical new one is that allowing the president to act untethered from most legal or congressional limits has largely just served to plunge the country into disorder

Photos that didn't make the wire: Washington D.C. residents march through the Columbia Heights neighborhood in protest of Pres. Donald Trump's use of seizure of local police, and use of federal agents and National Guard units to enforce anti-immigration policies. Aug. 22, 2025.

From Friday’s prayer vigil and yesterday’s rally. Authoritarianism is here and it won’t go away unless we keep pushing back. The fight for a truly free DC may take a while, but we will be out here until it does.

I live in DC, right at the Columbia Heights Metro, where ICE has made a habit of showing up in force to nab moped drivers, vendors, and people just using the metro. When you call what we're going through "a distraction" you're saying you don't value our humanity as much as an imaginary white swing.

🚨 ACTIVE CHECKPOINT ALERT 🚨 Reports have been made of an active checkpoint at 3300 block Sherman Ave NW in Columbia Heights, Ward 1 as of today August 24 at 8:55pm. Avoid the area if possible!! 1/
