In honour of Anthony Head here's my favourite pictures of him on set of BBC Merlin in full Uther attire, playing on a pink Nintendo DS

RIP Sir 🕊

Studies have always shown that if you provide necessities & help people thrive, it reduces crime.

y’all genuinely have to lock in this year no discourse no ironic homophobia no dumb shit we gotta uplift the community and especially trans people right now

They’re taking away healthcare. AI is stealing jobs. Corporations are allowed to poison food and water again. They’re slashing education. They’re starting endless wars in multiple countries. He’s using our money to build a ballroom. He’s manipulating the market. They’re dividing the country even more with a gerrymandering war. He is taking bribes in broad daylight. And they still haven’t released the full Epstein files. This is objectively the worst and most corrupt administration in history.

no data center is worth destroying this

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

The President just used his power to exempt himself and his family from audits on every tax return they've ever filed.

If that is not corruption to the highest degree, then what is?

i know we're already way beyond the pale, but in any normal society, this should be pitchforks and torches type stuff

[S.🎧 @1ssve]

why does no one care about the fact that we’re projected to run out of clean drinking water by 2039 because of how much water ai data centers use please stop using chatgpt y’all, i beg. you do not need a shitty looking cartoon of yourself, i promise. the planet is dying.

Honestly pure dictator shit. A real democracy would immediately imprison him for even trying this

this video is so important considering the western media and zionists are constantly dehumanising palestinians.

50 light-years from here is a dead star made mostly of diamond. Two-thirds the size of Earth. As heavy as the Sun. The biggest diamond ever found on our planet was 3,100 carats. This one is 10 billion trillion trillion carats.

Diamonds are absurdly common in space. Wood is the cosmic miracle.

Carbon is the 4th most common element in the universe, after hydrogen, helium, and oxygen. Squeeze it hard enough and it turns into diamond. Inside Neptune and Uranus, the pressure is so extreme that methane in their atmospheres comes apart, and the carbon falls as diamond rain. Some of these diamonds could grow up to a meter wide. Lab experiments confirmed it in 2017, and a 2024 follow-up showed it can happen on smaller, Neptune-like planets too. Those are among the most common types of planet astronomers find outside our solar system.

Take PSR J1719-1438 b. A planet 4,000 light-years from here, twice as dense as lead. As heavy as Jupiter, but less than half its size. Probably mostly crystalline carbon. A diamond planet, orbiting a tiny dead star that spins 10,000 times a minute.

And nanodiamonds are everywhere, even in meteorites that land on Earth. They make up about 3% of the carbon in those rocks.

Wood is harder. It needs lignin, a natural compound that turns soft plant tissue into hard wood. Lignin first appeared on Earth about 385 million years ago. Earth is 4.5 billion years old. Trees have only existed for 8.5% of our planet's history.

For tens of millions of years after lignin appeared, plant matter built up in Earth's swamps faster than it could fully break down. Most of the coal humans have ever burned was once those plants.

Wood needs everything: water, photosynthesis, an oxygen atmosphere, complex life, plants with veins, and finally the chemistry to build lignin. Diamonds need just two things: carbon and pressure.

So far, every place we have looked in the universe has carbon and pressure. Only one place we know of has trees.

My "woke take" is that people need to stop calling everything considered being politically correct "woke" and recognize that the term was made to specifically apply to being vigilant and aware of racial prejudice and systemic injustice

I didn’t see a single “it’s gonna be May” meme this year which is personally a massive relief, but culturally a signifier of something much darker.

Different salaries should only affect how luxurious your life is, not your food quality or ability to afford rent. If you work 40 hours at any job, your income should be enough to live in the town you work in. Thinking otherwise is an abysmal indicator of your humanity.

got a tornado warning while in an AMC theater. everyone looked around when phones went off and went back to watching the movie because risking death Feels Good in a Place Like This
