This eruptive solar flare (from March 2025) is one of my favourite solar events in recent years. Iāve been revisiting this flare recently, as Iāve been analysing some exciting data (not pictured here) of the event! Iāll share those observations later this year.

The result of years of determined effort by batshit conservatives and Christian nationalists to stake out a claim that the only thing to their right is God Himself. No such thing as far right extremism (!) and therefore all political and moral evil in the world must be a product of the left.
