At 17, our daughter Emerson has just self-published her third book (which is three more than her Dad). If you love fantasy, check out The Book of Destiny!

Perhaps the greatest Olympic champion ever produced by the United States. How did he do it? Donuts.

"The moment you begin to censor the writer- and history bears this out in the ugliest of fashions -so begins a process of decay in the body politic that ultimately leads to disaster."

Van Gogh often set vibrant yellows against cooler backgrounds like blue-violet night skies.

The contrast creates a halo-like glow, as the bright yellows blaze against the darker tones. #artbots #vangogh

La muerte de Jürgen Habermas, cierra una de las últimas voces mayores de la filosofía europea.
Su pensamiento estuvo marcado por una pregunta central: cómo reconstruir la legitimidad de la razón después de la barbarie.
Desde la tradición de la Escuela de Frankfurt, Habermas heredó la crítica al poder y a la racionalidad instrumental; pero intentó algo más ambicioso: rescatar la posibilidad de una racionalidad comunicativa, es decir, una razón que se realiza no en la dominación, sino en el diálogo.

En esa convicción se encuentra su mayor legado para el derecho y la democracia:
la idea de que las leyes no son plenamente legítimas por haber sido promulgadas, sino por poder ser justificadas ante todos aquellos a quienes obligan.

Hoy su voz se extingue, pero su tesis permanece abierta como una promesa:
mientras exista un espacio para la argumentación pública, la democracia seguirá siendo posible.

Economy too weak, prices too high, and war in Iran? The comparison to the 1970s is easy to make. But I think it's the wrong one. I write for @business about the parallels our economy has right now with the mid-aughts.

Earthset.

The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.

🌹 This picture of wild roses may look very pleasant and peaceful, but Van Gogh was actually suffering a severe mental crisis at the time. He had admitted himself to the psychiatric institution in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, hoping to find peace there. As soon as he could, he went out into the gardens to paint or draw.

Van Gogh painted the fragile blossoms naturalistically, but treated the green leaves differently. He has turned them into flat areas of plain colour surrounded by heavy blue outlines.
