Безтурботна сцена сонячного дня з яскравим сонцем, що проглядає крізь хмари, кидаючи на небо тепле сяйво. На передньому плані височіє дерево з зеленим листям, частково затінене сонячними променями. Небо яскраво-блакитне з пухнастими білими хмарами, а вдалині видніється літак, що пролітає

"closures of fire towers has resulted in vast areas of forest & grassland being unmonitored by lookouts. 'There are huge gaps in the forest … Our areas of responsibility have doubled. The problem isn’t the people working to manage the wildfires. It’s politics.'

Aerial patrols … are also less frequent … '[Last week] there was dry lightning where towers are closed & there were hardly any helicopter patrols. We all knew this was going to happen.'”

This is wild! "Dark" oxygen produced at the bottom of the ocean, possibly by natural electrolysis associated with the polymetallic nodules that are the major target for deep sea mining.

So crazy that for years, the scientists who discovered this refused to believe their sensors were working properly.

You must know that mining manganese nodules was just a convenient cover story for the construction of the Hughes Glomar Explorer and the HMB-1 "mining barge" the CIA built in the early 70s to raise the sunken Soviet nuclear missile submarine K-129 and get at its code books? Right?

@cstross I did know that! If the stakes weren’t so high, the fact that cut-rate Bond villains are using a BS cover story as a business plan would be pretty funny.

If you want to see a real "Border Czar," google Project 2025.

It would create a super-powerful border authority that could operate without Senate approval, detain people without due process, and allow border agents to be a roving detention Gestapo -- EVERYWHERE IN AMERICA.

Brooks is seriously flawed: "I find myself experiencing a dizzying range of emotions. Some moments, I share the jolt of enthusiasm many are feeling. Other moments, I think the Democrats are suffering from a mass hypnotic delusion, nominating a candidate who is seriously flawed."
headline: Making peace with the kamala nomination
For purposes of calibration, when characterizing Former President Trump, what adverb does Mr. Brooks employ when modifying “flawed”? Entirely? Massively? Comically?

"There is only one country in the world right now, in the midst of Israel’s slaughter in Gaza, where Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is guaranteed dozens of standing ovations from the vast majority of its elected representatives.
That country is not Israel, where he has been a hugely divisive figure for many years. It is the United States."

备注:因为她要求的是”mother tongue“,所以我要教的是mandarin/国语的歌,但是如果你是粤语/闽南语/等不同华语语系母语者的话也欢迎留下你的母语歌曲!

Second photo is a series of mobile phones from the 1980s to the present, becoming increasingly small and compact. Caption says: 40 years difference. Third photo is of two BMW cars parked side-by-side. First car from the 1980s is small and compact. The ugly modern SUV next to it is twice as tall. Caption says: 40 years difference.

There's something going on...

Just this week we've had a video call for Black women with Harris, Black men for Harris, there is a video call for white women for Harris, and I've seen talk (but not confirmed) of a white male video call for Harris and a Latinas for Harris video call.

Driving around in the very red portion of my neighborhood, I've seen Harris signs, Sherrod Brown signs, and vote for democracy signs.

NOTHING for the other side.

In a VERY RED area.

I'm stunned.
