I don’t really understand the maths it takes to send humans behind the Moon and bring them back safely. And the more I sit with that, the more it genuinely messes with my head even tho my love for physics and my knowledge of physics is astounding to a point Somebody had to work out a path where the Moon’s gravity is pulling you in, the Earth is pulling you back, and you’re moving just fast enough and not slow enough not to get trapped by either. They had to figure out the exact angle to come back into Earth’s atmosphere too. Too steep, you burn up. Too shallow, you bounce off and drift into space. And they had to get all of that right at the same time, for real people sitting in a small metal capsule about 400k kilometres away from home. Nothing in that system is standing still. The Moon is moving. The Earth is moving. Even the Sun is pulling on everything. And still, some people looked at all of that motion, all of that chaos, and turned it into numbers you can follow. Go here. Adjust here. Come back here. And unlike nepa light, it infact works. There’s also that moment in the journey where the crew passes behind the Moon. No contact with Earth. No signal. Just silence, with a massive rock blocking everything they’ve ever known. The only reason they can stay calm in that moment is because someone, somewhere, did the maths and proved they’ll come out the other side. I don’t know what it feels like to trust something that much. To put your life in an equation when you’re that far away from everything. But I do know this for sure, whatever that level of thinking is, whatever it takes to reach it, it might be one of the most extraordinary things human beings have ever done...

I am momentarily relieved for the 90 million Iranians who just spent the worst 24 hours of their lives thinking they were about to face nothing short of a nuclear catastrophe—not the regime, but innocent civilians who have nothing to do with their government, and long for freedom. I’m also relieved for the American servicemembers who would have been placed in even graver danger and ordered to carry out war crimes. But this doesn’t change anything. Donald Trump threatened genocide and war crimes against Iranians this morning. His statements that “a whole civilization will die” and that he’ll take Iran “back to the stone ages” confirm that he is mentally unstable, unhinged, and unfit for office or any position of authority. It’s now day 39 of Trump’s illegal regional war that has had deadly and catastrophic consequences. There has been no clear plan or rationale, no strategy, and no Congressional authorization or input as required by the Constitution. Thousands of civilians have been tragically killed across the region, American servicemembers have died and suffered unnecessarily, and millions are displaced from Lebanon to the Gulf. Trump and Pete Hegseth have already committed explicit war crimes by bombing schools, hospitals, bridges, and water desalination plants. This isn’t partisan. Republicans, Democrats, and Independents now know that Trump is dangerous and unfit. Whether through impeachment or by invoking the 25th Amendment, it is far past time Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are removed from office. Cabinet officials like JD Vance will be forever tied to this war if they do nothing. We need urgent action for the sake of our national security and the safety and security of the rest of the world. I’m also demanding that Mike Johnson immediately call the House back into session so we can pass the bipartisan War Powers Resolution and ensure that Trump and Hegseth can never again resume this disastrous war. I pray this ceasefire holds, and I pray for peace and freedom for the Iranian people.

@ThatEricAlper I Will Always Love You sung by Whitney Houston

What's a song that makes you cry no matter how many times you've heard it?

@snoopyb047 Yes❣️ ☮️

I was visiting cousins and a friend in Louisiana the last 2-1/2 weeks of March. Such a great time!! 🌞 I thought i pretty much only checked the independent news headlines every morning and/or night... but oh the amount of Twitter X bookmarks!

‼️Signed.

Stephen Miller: “Trump = peace.” Tulsi Gabbard: “A vote for Donald Trump is a vote to end wars, not start them.” JD Vance: “Trump's best foreign policy? Not starting any wars.” Donald Trump: "My proudest legacy will be that of a peacemaker and unifier." Liars.

❗️Surprise! Not.

Chris Hayes shreds Donald Trump's speech, calling it 19 minutes of lies. “It was a litany of lies that he’s told before.”

@HQNewsNow @PellervoHannula I know this is a crazy idea, but why don't we just stop fighting other people's wars?

@HQNewsNow @Flywriter2 Notice it’s not eliminating funding for Israel

Sec. Hegseth fired over 20 top generals and admirals, including a top Army general who served 7 presidents this week. Purging generals to settle personal or political vendettas is what happens in China or Russia, not America. I broke down why this is dangerous back in November:

🚨WTAF: Israel is striking civilian homes in Naqoura, South Lebanon. No military target identified. No Hezbollah presence confirmed at the site. Just homes. The same week Senator Tim Kaine acknowledged on CNN that US strikes on civilian infrastructure may violate international law. The same week Macron said “Look at Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya — we never delivered.” The same week the Pope quoted Isaiah: “Your hands are full of blood.” Switzerland has called the strikes a violation of international law. The world is not silent. It is being ignored.

BREAKING: Israel is wiping out entire civilian homes in Khiyam, South Lebanon. Not military targets. Homes. They forced over a million civilians out of their homes. Then they erase these homes from the map. This is terrorism, ethnic cleansing, and land theft.
