Thank you Starfleet Academy for honoring the legacy of Captain Benjamin Sisko. Avery Brooks will always be my hero! Thank you to everyone who made this moment happen… especially Tawny Newsome❤️ This is for all the fans who have watched and loved Deep Space 9 over the years…

I can say from personal experience that Putin is threatened by strong women. As I argue in a new piece in @ForeignAffairs, he and his fellow autocrats have reason to fear us: Defending women's rights and combating authoritarianism is the same fight. foreignaffairs.com/united-states/…

Good luck to all the extraordinary athletes representing @TeamUSA at the Winter Olympics and Paralympics! It’s been so inspiring to follow your journeys to the world stage, and we'll be cheering you on as you compete in Italy.

Millions of Ukrainians are sheltering at home in the cold and dark, under constant threat of missiles. Four years on from Russia’s unprovoked attack, join a @ColumbiaSIPA discussion at 12pm ET about the war's ongoing humanitarian and geopolitical stakes. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Thanks to the efforts of @JoaquinCastrotx and other advocates, the boy in the blue bunny hat—five-year-old Liam Ramos—is home from ICE detention. But hundreds of kids remain in facilities that are no place for children. Release them all. nytimes.com/2026/02/01/opi…

Texas freeze update. Lights are still on, my dog is asleep on my feet, yes my Christmas tree is still up, and yes those are Snorlax pajama pants - sincere apologies to anyone who was under the impression that I’m not a giant nerd. But also - if you feel moved to do something to save our country NOW, we currently have a special election happening in Texas where we can flip a seat that has been under GOP control for over two decades. We have GOT to get Taylor Rehmet into office. From anywhere in the country, you can help make a difference NOW. sign up and log on tomorrow for a virtual phone bank to call voters and encourage them to head to the polls as soon as the elements allow: mobilize.us/texasdemocrats…

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

This International Day of Education, @UNESCO is highlighting the power of youth to co-create the future of education. We’re proud to trust and invest in young women who are turning girls’ rights into real-world change: policy that’s enforceable, financing that’s predictable, and accountability that lasts. Turning promises into reality takes all of us: partner with youth, back proven solutions, and ensure commitments are delivered.

As Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. taught us, darkness cannot drive out darkness, and hate cannot drive out hate. Only light and love can do that. So today, let’s remember our responsibilities to march hand in hand, to stand peacefully with dignity and purpose in the ongoing fight for justice. To organize. To mobilize. To vote. To believe, no matter how far away the mountaintop might feel, it is in our capacity to change our communities and our country for the better.

Health care costs are about to go up for millions of people, leaving Americans at risk of losing their care. Republicans in Congress could fix it. So why don't they?

Recent research in historical archives reveals a striking and often overlooked reality: women appear frequently in early images of glacier exploration and alpine travel. These visual records challenge the long-standing assumption that such ventures were exclusively a male domain. Rather than being absent or merely peripheral figures, women were clearly present, active, and engaged in these environments. The photographs preserved in the Swiss National Library’s Archive Wehrli offer valuable insight into this history. They show women standing on glaciers, traveling through alpine landscapes, and participating in expeditions that demanded physical endurance and curiosity. Their presence complicates the traditional narrative of exploration as a purely masculine pursuit and invites a reassessment of how history has been framed and remembered. By looking more closely at these images, we begin to recognize the social and cultural dynamics that shaped who was documented and how their contributions were acknowledged. While written accounts often marginalized or omitted women’s experiences, photography captured moments that resist such erasure. These archival images do more than document the past; they expand our understanding of it. They remind us that glacier exploration and engagement with extreme landscapes were not solely men’s worlds, but shared spaces where women also played a visible and meaningful role. © Reddit #archaeohistories

Texans are sick and tired of the chaos and corruption caused by Greg Abbott.

Most Americans want science to govern our public health policy. Not crackpot ideas. This move marks a dire turning point for the CDC that the next Congress and administration must correct ASAP. huffpost.com/entry/cdc-upda…
