The largest reservoir of hydrogen on Earth may be hiding in its core
Earth's core contains nine to 45 times more hydrogen than the planet's oceans do, according to a new study that could settle a debate about when and how hydrogen was delivered to Earth.

"We have to endure pain before it gets better" they were saying at the beginning of last year but the question should be why when all of the firings, deportations and tariffs were inadvisable from the beginning.
They tried since before he even took office to lay the groundwork for ignoring this. They said On Main a bunch of shit like "It's going to hurt bad before it gets better" in the hopes that their stooges would internalize it.
It is obviously not going to go the way they think.

Judge blocks California ban on masked ICE agents
While the judge wasn't persuaded that ICE agents have a legitimate reason to hide their face, she still halted the California law because it discriminates against federal officers.

I say this regularly. People use performative as a substitute for 'inauthentic' and we could all just say the words we mean to say. Erving Goffman helps us to understand that we perform all of the time in real life. Life itself is often a performance of self.
People have worn out "performative." We often perform things that are real, you know. Posting is a kind of performance of one's politics. Performative doesn't actually mean "fake" or "empty," it just gets deployed that way. We actually need performance. Case in point: last night's performance.
