There is a planet where it may rain glass like material under extreme conditions, and the rain would likely be driven sideways by powerful winds, possibly like horizontal needles

The exoplanet HD 189733 b, a hot Jupiter about 63 light years away, has temperatures around 1,000°C (1,800°F). Its atmosphere likely contains silicate particles that can form tiny glass like droplets. These would not fall as gentle rain but would be blown through the atmosphere by extremely powerful winds, which scientists estimate can reach several kilometres per second.

The planet is also thought to appear deep blue based on how its atmosphere scatters light, although this is not a direct visual observation. This remains one of the most extreme and hostile worlds discovered, with conditions far beyond anything on Earth.

En toværelses lejlighed på Amager har vakt opsigt. For »håndværkertilbuddet« koster 3,5 millioner trods brune plamager på toiletkummen.

Og det illustrerer, at alt kan sælges på det glohede københavnske boligmarked, vurderer eksperter.

Everyone needs to know the origin of the word “rune.” When ancient Germanics formed their own alphabet, they called the letters *rūnōz or “whispers,” because as your eyes followed them, they spoke to you, silently. Reading is magic to a people at the dawn of literacy, who haven’t yet learned to take the miracle for granted.

There is something darkly amusing about the fact that selling victimhood to the most privileged people in history has become such a lucrative and big business.

When I was on tour with @jordanbpeterson he talked about many things, but probably the most common recurring theme was the "Spirit of Cain". It seems our ancient and sacred texts tell these stories for a reason: victimhood is easy, seductive and addictive. And now profitable too.

We are living through a perpetual victimhood escalation battle where people (and groups) now compete not on merit, but on the supposed disadvantages they face. Which makes perfect sense since this is the incentive structure our societies have been encouraged and forced to adopt.

New issue of Popeye, a Japanese menswear mag, looks great. It's a rare all-English edition and looks at how people from 18 different countries dress. Very aligned with my view of style: diversity and differences are good; dress is a form of social language. Avail at Kinokuniya

In 1916, Denmark sold the Danish West Indies to the United States, and the islands later became the U.S. Virgin Islands. As part of the agreement, the United States also formally recognized Denmark’s sovereignty over Greenland.

In 1916, Denmark agreed to sell the Danish West Indies to the United States for $25 million in gold, with the transfer officially completed in 1917.

The deal was largely motivated by American strategic concerns during World War I. U.S. officials worried that if Germany expanded its naval presence, the islands’ key position in the Caribbean could pose a threat to the Panama Canal and important shipping lanes, despite there being no clear evidence that Germany intended to seize them.

As part of the agreement, the United States formally recognized Denmark’s sovereignty over Greenland, reinforcing Danish control over the vast Arctic territory at a time when questions surrounding ownership and influence in the region still existed.

For Denmark, the sale brought an end to decades of economic struggles in the Caribbean colonies, where the collapse of the sugar industry had made the islands increasingly unprofitable. For the United States, the acquisition secured a valuable naval foothold in the Caribbean while also expanding American strategic influence across both the Atlantic and Arctic regions.

Xi Jinping left the planet with its mouth hanging open. At a banquet with only 47 guests, the Chinese president looked at Trump and let loose without a filter: “Trump is making America great again.” Yes, you read that right. The leader of the Chinese Communist Party recited the MAGA slogan in public. Trump converted Xi to MAGA.

Xi continued with an epic speech: “On the 250th anniversary of the independence of the United States, the more than 300 million Americans are revitalizing the spirit of patriotism, innovation, and entrepreneurship, and ushering in a new chapter in the history of the nation.”

And he wrapped it up: “The peoples of China and the United States are two great peoples. The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and making America great again can go hand in hand. We can help each other succeed and bring prosperity to the whole world.”

NYP Reporter: Prior to boarding Air Force One to depart Beijing, the entire U.S. delegation disposed of every item provided to them by their Chinese hosts. Gifts, badges, pins, and commemorative items were all dumped into a trash bin on site. The directive was absolute, no item of Chinese origin was permitted to board the aircraft. The precautions extended beyond the departure itself. Delegation members had left all personal electronic devices at home before traveling to China and operated exclusively on clean burner phones throughout the duration of the trip.
