Me when my brain finally got there

It’s crazy the mental gymnastics you need to do to deny this. Either Kirara is a trans woman, or Hakari is gay Kirara can’t be cis because we see her as a boy in the past, and Hakari has explicitly said he doesn’t like doing romantic shit with dudes so he’s not gay

The math on this black hole should mass-humble every physicist who thinks we understand gravity. M87's central black hole is 6.5 billion times the mass of our Sun. It's 38 billion kilometers across. It spins at 80% of the theoretical maximum speed allowed by physics. And it's firing a plasma beam at near light speed that stretches 5,000 light-years into space. To put 5,000 light-years in perspective: if you started driving at highway speed when the Egyptian pyramids were built, you'd have covered roughly 0.0005 light-years by now. This beam covers ten million times that distance. The plasma travels in a spiral along a coiled magnetic field. Hubble watched it for 13 years just to confirm the motion pattern. And the beam isn't just decorating empty space. Stars near its path explode twice as often as stars elsewhere in the galaxy. Nobody knows why. The lead researcher at Stanford said they don't understand the mechanism at all. The black hole eats roughly 90 Earth masses of material per day. The energy output from that feeding process matches the power of the jet itself, somewhere between 10^33 and 10^37 joules per second. The upper end of that range is a number so large it has no human analogy. Your brain runs on 20 watts. This thing outputs more energy per second than every star in the Milky Way combined. And we photographed it with a telescope in 2019.

Os caras insistem em resolver problemas, o que é um inconveniente pras pessoas que gostam dos problemas

A moment you could easily miss… but never forget. 🌍 From the International Space Station, our crew caught a faint streak of light slicing through Earth’s atmosphere — the return of Artemis II. At first, it was just a bright glow… then a long, wispy trail as the spacecraft tore through the upper atmosphere at incredible speed. The Orion capsule itself wasn’t visible — but the trail it left behind told the whole story.

美国当年登月的时候，就怕你们不相信，安装了三台激光反射器在了月球表面，但凡有点实力的天文台，往那个坐标打一束激光脉冲，就能收到返回光信号，年年打年年收到，56年了没断过。全世界航天局都承认美国登月是真的，都2026年了，还有一群民科在造谣阿波罗登月是假的。

Amazing how this meme destroyed liberal activism forever

Science fiction-levels human development

Genuine question: is there a news story so horrifying that it could override the liberal impulse to burst into interpretive dance?

Given how Harris lost, it’s kind of shocking that she doesn’t even mention the economy but still does what every Democrat who has recently lost an election does: leaning on credentialism instead of focusing on what you’re going to give people to improve their economic situation.

everyone is laughing at this but it's probably just a persian rug merchant scam "ahhh my friend i am very sorry we lost the mines we have no idea where they are... the only place we know has no mines is this small channel i will show to you for small fee"

Imagine being a flat earther right now… “Bro just show us live streaming video from space, that’ll prove it!” NASA: “Say less.” beams down crystal-clear 4K live feed of the ISS soaring over a spinning blue marble with actual weather systems moving in real time Flerfs: “FAKE! CGI! It’s all AI-generated in a basement! The clouds are looping! Globe propaganda! Wake up sheeple!!1!” Bro… you demanded live video. They gave you live video. And your only response is to scream “deep state holograms” while hiding under a tinfoil hat made from expired Hot Pockets wrappers. Gotta Lie to Deny The Earth is visibly curving, rotating, and looking suspiciously not flat… but sure, keep telling yourself it’s all a $400 billion conspiracy just to trick you specifically. Meanwhile the rest of us are out here living in 2026, not 1526. Stay losing, flerfs. 😂🌍

🚨 NASA 的 Curiosity 探测车揭示了火星夜空的样子，火星距离地球约 2.25 亿公里。

Turns out the ISS did!

The moment Mars peeked out from behind our moon

One day some dude is gonna do this girl wrong and get the most confusing beating of his life 😭

"Nothing wrong with the Empire. France brought civilization." France arrived in Vietnam in the 1850s. By the time they were expelled in 1954, they had run the country for a hundred years. Here is what that century looked like: They dissolved the existing Vietnamese administrative and legal structures and replaced them with a colonial apparatus designed to extract maximum value for Paris. They imposed taxes, the head tax, the salt tax, the alcohol monopoly, calibrated specifically to impoverish the peasantry and force them into plantation labor. They ran an industrialized opium trade as official colonial policy. A third of their revenue in Indochina came from selling opium to Vietnamese people. Their rubber plantations had mortality rates so catastrophic they were compared at the time to the Belgian Congo. When Vietnamese people organized, protested, or resisted, they were imprisoned, tortured, or executed. The prison at Poulo Condore became synonymous with systematic brutality. By 1945, after a century of French civilization, approximately two million Vietnamese people died in a famine, partly caused by Japanese wartime policies, but significantly exacerbated by French colonial infrastructure that had been designed to export food rather than feed the people who grew it. Then America arrived with a different accent and the same logic. "We bring civilization." "We bring technology." "Be grateful." And three million people died saying: we did not ask you to come. We do not want you here. This is our country and we will run it ourselves. We were right. We proved it in the most definitive way a people can prove anything. The civilization argument is not an argument. It is a costume the powerful wear so they don't have to look at what they're actually doing. We saw what was underneath it. We always did.

If the Earth were flat like the Artemis II deniers claim, this wouldn’t happen. But it does because the planet is roughly a sphere (oblate spheroid). It’s physics!

When Biden/Harris took over in 2021, they didn't undo what Trump 1.0 did, they EXPANDED it. Even if a Democrat wins in 2028, what evidence is there that they will actually reverse what Trump did this time?

I know students who have been expelled, imprisoned and deported, and I know others who have been directly threatened into silence. You talk like this because you aren’t funny and it’s the only way you know to get attention. You will be reborn as a flea

easily one of the funniest guys america has had in decades
