"A Look to the Heavens"
"From our vantage point in the Milky Way Galaxy, we see NGC 6946 face-on. The big, beautiful spiral galaxy is located just 20 million light-years away, behind a veil of foreground dust and stars in the high and far-off constellation of Cepheus. From the core outward, the galaxy's colors change from the yellowish light of old stars in the center to young blue star clusters and reddish star forming regions along the loose, fragmented spiral arms. NGC 6946 is also bright in infrared light and rich in gas and dust, exhibiting a high star birth and death rate. In fact, since the early 20t... read more

All of the Usual Suspects Were Wrong
The CDC’s recent policy changes reveal a carefully worded mea culpa over their disastrous (and entirely incorrect) policies over the past 2.5 years. Whether it’s public health officials, politicians, corporate executives, most scientists, and Leftists generally, THEY WERE ENTIRELY WRONG. Their policies were absolutely discriminatory, violated the Nuremberg Code. In Canada, Trudeau, Singh, and their… Continue reading → read more

Tonight on Unsolved Mysteries
Another day, and no one in the news business has asked a prominent Democrat if they would be willing to try to stop Trump from taking office WITH ILLEGAL MEANS if it meant "saving America."

"It Is Our Fate..."
"Well, it is our fate to live in a time of crisis. To live in a time when all forms and values are being challenged. In other and more easy times, it was not, perhaps, necessary for the individual to confront himself with a clear question: What is it that you really believe? What is it that you really cherish? What is it for which you might, actually, in a showdown, be willing to die? I say, with all the reticence which such large, pathetic words evoke, that one cannot exist today as a person, one cannot exist in full consciousness, without having to have a showdown with one's self,... read more
The Poet: Mary Oliver, "What I Have Learned So Far"
*"What I Have Learned So Far"* "Meditation is old and honorable, so why should I not sit, every morning of my life, on the hillside, looking into the shining world? Because, properly attended to, delight, as well as havoc, is suggestion. Can one be passionate about the just, the ideal, the sublime, and the holy, and yet commit to no labor in its cause? I don't think so. All summations have a beginning, all effect has a story, all kindness begins with the sown seed. Thought buds toward radiance. The gospel of light is the crossroads of - indolence, or action. Be ignited, or be gone." ~ M... read more
"I See No Reason..."
"Human beings never think for themselves, they find it too uncomfortable. For the most part, members of our species simply repeat what they are told- and become upset if they are exposed to any different view. The characteristic human trait is not awareness but conformity, and the characteristic result is religious warfare. Other animals fight for territory or food; but, uniquely in the animal kingdom, human beings fight for their 'beliefs.' The reason is that beliefs guide behavior, which has evolutionary importance among human beings. But at a time when our behavior may well lead... read more

The Espionage Act and Trump’s documents, explained
[image: US-POLITICS-INVESTIGATION-TRUMP] Photo by GIORGIO VIERA/AFP via Getty Images The FBI’s unsealed warrant tells us why they searched Mar-a-Lago — but not much about what they found After a week punctuated with reprimands of the Department of Justice by Republican lawmakers and their subsequent demands for accountability following an FBI search of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence, the search warrant released Friday indicates the search was conducted in connection with, among other things*, *the Espionage Act. The Espionage Act is actually a series of sta... read more
Is Enough is Enough Enough?
I can understand why some comrades are less than enthused about the launch of Enough is Enough, the campaign coincident with Don't Pay UK. Among its first initiatives is a a letter to the government telling them to get their fingers out and treat the cost of living crisis like the emergency it is. And then we have a programme of rallies, kicking off in London this Wednesday. And apart from an active and fast-growing social media presence, that's it. For comrades who've been around the block and have had a dose of initiativeitis more than once, it's not very inspiring. This reminds ... read more

To Fear or Love Multipolarity?
The global distribution of material power changes from time to time. It’s something that happens, not something we should spend any amount of time pursuing or avoiding.

The C-Word is not ‘capitalism’ or ‘conservatism’… or ‘cancer’…
I elsewhere speak of both Adam Smith and Karl Marx, who are often portrayed as opposites. Only, the latter deeply respected the former, writing of Smith’s vital role in ‘bourgeois revolution’ - a necessary intermediate stage on the road from feudalism and monarchic despotism to final-stage worker paradise. Mind you, it’s a pity 99% of moderns know next to nothing about these two thinkers, beyond inaccurate clichés. (See: Adam Smith – Liberals must reclaim him.) Smith was brilliant, helping set in motion many of the positive sum processes I’ll speak of below. Alas, though the ... read more

The FBI's false rationale for their raid on Mar-a-Logo
Matt Margolis: ... Gee, if these documents were so incredibly sensitive and secret that the FBI had to conduct an armed raid of Trump’s home in order to retrieve them, how come the press is allowed to know the nature of the documents? These documents are apparently too sensitive for Trump to possess but not so sensitive that FBI agents can’t show them off to the media.

The end for the FBI
Roger Kimball: ... Will the astonishing raid on Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump’s Palm Beach residence, be the line in the sand, the Rubicon, the straw that broke the camel’s back? Maybe. Just possibly. Probably not. But maybe. The volume of the response this time has been turned up. Everywhere one looks, eyebrows are raised. Concern — make that “deep concern” — is being voiced. As is so often the case, it’s the little things that push people over the edge. The news that the G-Men, in addition to carting off boxes of documents, also rifled through Melania Trump’s personal wardrobe st... read more
