Gute Nacht mit Marie Luise

Man sieht eine Marienstatue von der Seite, das Bild ist ganz in Blautönen gehalten. Sie hatte die Hände zum Gebet gehoben, und man sieht einzelne Spinnweben.

How does the world look through a spider’s eyes?

Spiders - are they really more afraid of you than you are of them?

Night night sweet dreamies

It’s okay to have depression, it’s okay to have anxiety, & it’s okay to have an adjustment disorder
We need to improve the conversation
We all have mental health in the same way we all have physical health.

We need to talk about it more freely.

As Congress works to end the government shutdown, it’s crucial to remind your elected officials to pass clean spending bills.

The initial House bill, H.R. 4754, included harmful riders, including Section 128, which would remove protections for gray wolves in 44 states.

The world is engulfed by chaos and horror as the armies of Death arrive to incorporate the Living into their band. Perfect allegory for today from Pieter Brueghel the Younger.

The Horsehead Nebula (Barnard 33) and NGC 2023 - From Rolf Wahl Olsen - https://flic.kr/p/rhRRAz

In the Shadow of the Horsehead - Deep 26 Hour Version

I recently added a Ha filter to my collection and promptly put it to the test by soaking up a decent amount of data on the Horsehead nebula. I wanted to improve on my initial attempt on this target from 2014. One of the issues was that I'd like to show the delicate 'curtain' structure of IC 434, the bright glowing hydrogen emission that the Horsehead is silhouetted against.
This also prompted me to add more data to the LRGB channels as well in order to bring out the faint dust details better, so all together with last year's data I ended up with over 26 hours of data which I completely reprocessed and assembled into this updated version.
I'm pleased that the result has higher resolution and more depth than last years' effort. The colours are also richer and more refined and in particular the Ha curtains now stand out above and around the Horsehead.

About the image:
The Horsehead Nebula (also known as Barnard 33) is without doubt one of the most recognized and fascinating objects in the sky. This iconic feature is formed by the sharp outline of a dark dust cloud, with a remarkable likeness to a horse's head, silhouetted against a brightly glowing patch of ionized Hydrogen (IC434) that is being energized by the hard ultraviolet radiation from nearby Sigma Orionis, a...

There is no honor in agreeing to cease committing genocide.

I’m thankful the peace agreement may work, but I cannot applaud when a man like Netanyahu agrees to stop murdering people.

Netanyahu should be arrested, not dignified.

Titan as seen through three different filters: August 20, 2013 - From Val Klavans (valklavans.bsky.social) - https://flic.kr/p/fAMQzR

On August 20, 2013, Cassini's camera system, the Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS), looked for clouds across Titan's sub-Saturn hemisphere from 1.33 million kilometers (0.82 million miles) away. The ISS took a number of images of Titan in different filters. Three of which were used for this composite image. This RGB false color composite of Titan is in 3 different filters: continuum filter (where methane is more transparent), methane band (where methane is strongly absorbing), and ultraviolet.

These images were taken on August 20, 2013 and received on Earth August 22, 2013. The images were taken using the CL1, CB3, UV3 and MT3 filters.

Bei kaum einem Thema ist die Debatte von der Realität so abgekoppelt wie beim Bürgergeld.

Immer wieder stellen Politiker*innen fast aller Parteien in Talkshows das Bürgergeld als ein Riesenproblem dar und fantasieren wahnwitzige Einsparungen herbei.
