On Halloween night I set up my telescope in my driveway and showed Saturn to trick-or-treaters. As the night wore on I realized I could see at least four of Saturn’s moons. I’m not sure I’d noticed more than Titan before. To be fair I was usually looking at the rings, which are edge-on now.

It's not too late to support Cuomo.
He promised to move to Florida if Zamdani won. He probably needs help packing.

I had my Orion XT8 out on the driveway last night, showing trick-or-treaters the Moon and Saturn. I never get tired of hearing “whoooa!” and “Ive never looked through a telescope before!”

The Orion Nebula, shot with my iPhone 16 Pro through the eyepiece of a small refracting telescope. Why? Because I can! Honestly, it turned out better than I expected it would. This is a 30-second “night mode” shot.

The Real Patriots Will Be Marching Saturday—Against the un-Americans
Republicans are calling the No Kings marches the “hate America” rallies. Let’s ask James Madison who really hates America. It’s obvious what he’d say.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Everybody gamely says “Vance hosted Kirk’s podcast” instead of “the regime officially turned the major channel into state-controlled media just as it began its violent crackdown on any opposition or dissident messages.”
