There’s something about New Mexico that’s different. I can’t quite put my finger on it.

The Impact of Rapid Climate Change on prehistoric
societies during the Holocene in the Eastern Mediterranean
“Definition of Rapid Climate Change (RCC)
Our understanding of natural climatic variability in
the Holocene has increased considerably during re-
cent years. One of the most remarkable discoveries
is the existence of a distinctly repetitive pattern of
global cooling anomalies, with major (among other
cycles) 1450-year periodicity during the Glacial pe-
riods, extending through the Holocene up to modern
times, i.e. the most recent ‘Little Ice Age’ (Mayewski
et al. 1994; 1997). These Holocene cold anomalies,
the focus of the present paper, are known as Rapid
Climate Change (RCC) events (Mayewski et al. 1997;
2004).”

Klimaatverandering is van alle tijden. Het tegenargument dat huidige opwarming uniek is in zijn snelheid, klopt niet. Deze studie van 19 klimaatwetenschappers uit Duitsland, UK en USA is duidelijk : er waren meerdere snelle klimaatveranderingen de laatste 15 duizend jaar.

BREAKING: GET HIS ASS! Rep. Ilhan Omar destroys Trump after he smeared her name — and JD Vance gets dragged right into the mud!
By now, they should know better than to mess with her...
"The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history," Omar wrote on X.
"Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar," she added. "Maybe you should focus on what your VP’s real name is."
She was responding to a hateful, lie-filled Truth Social rant from Trump in which he repeated some of the usual right-wing fever dream conspiracies about Omar, including that she supposedly changed her name and married her brother. Absurdly, he called for the well-liked congresswoman to "IMMEDIATELY resign from Congress."
Omar's response was pitch perfect, because she refused to be pulled into the weeds on Trump's blatant misinformation and instead redirected attention to the fact that this White House is actively covering up the Epstein files.
On top of that, Vance actually did change his name. He was born "James Donald Bowman," was later renamed "James David Hamel" by his mother, and then eventually changed his name to Vance. His constantly shifting name is appropriate for a reptilian-like man who will pretend to believe in anything to get closer to power. He's a slippery, slimy little creature.
Meanwhile, Ilhan Omar is a staunch advocate for her constituents and a fearless progressive who actually wants to improve this country, unlike these MAGA crooks who only want to enrich themselves and obscure their crimes.
This is all so incredibly transparent. Trump is attacking Omar because his popularity is in the toilet and he knows that going after a Black, Muslim, immigrant woman will play well with his base. It doesn't matter that his accusations are untrue, his bigoted supporters will gobble them up. Unfortunately for him, it won't be enough to win in the midterms!
Please ❤️ and share if you stand with Ilhan Omar!
“ We argue that variations in solar activity may have played a significant role in forcing these climate changes. We review the coincidence of variations in cosmogenic isotopes (C and Be) with climate changes during the Holocene and the upper part of the last Glacial, and present two possible mechanisms (involving the role of solar UV variations and solar wind/cosmic rays) that may explain how small variations in solar activity are amplified to cause significant climate changes.”

They burned our libraries. Stole our gold. Cut off our hands. Castrated our men. Raped our women. Worked us to death. Stole our children. Drew borders through our families. Erased our names. Banned our languages.
Then wrote books saying we had no history.
These heads are not decoration. They are memory. They are witnesses.

Name me a country since WW2 that has been 'saved' by the USA.
Rather than invaded, bombed and oppressed.

Christian nationalists that are running the country don't want any brown, black or any person who has a different religion from them becoming American that can vote. It's that simple.
I went to Robert E. Lee HS in Midland, Texas. Our entrance onto the field at football games was behind a jeep racing in with a 12 ft. confederate flag. In 1965 we played in the baseball state tournament against this San Antonio Robert E. Lee HS. Fuckers beat us.
I suggested to them that ‘Youth Klan Rally’ might not be the image of ‘fun’ they want to project.

My sons (8 and 11) are old enough to know what nuclear weapons are. Last weekend they were asking some good questions like:
-what was the biggest one? the smallest?
-how deep underground would we need to go to survive one?
-what if we were in a tank instead of underground?
-why doesn't the plane that dropped the bomb get blown up?
I didn't tell them about radiation sickness or nuclear winter, but otherwise I didn't sugarcoat it for them. They become quiet and listen when you talk to them like adults. A lot of our conversations are like this now.
We watched some videos of the old above ground tests in Nevada and the South Pacific. I was reminded of a passage from Richard Rhodes' "Dark Sun" where Edward Teller is said to have told visiting dignitaries that a thermonuclear explosion is like a campfire.
It has no practical limit and can be built bigger and bigger by adding more fuel to the reaction...
Look at this bunch of hippies. They’ve even got weed hanging from the ceiling. That will be the MAGAt’s next slur. They first tried to trash him by calling him a vegan. Seriously. This guy has got them so confused they’re biting themselves. If you haven’t heard his full message, I’m sure YouTube is a good source.
And if you’re in Texas, or anywhere else for that matter, please vote for James Talarico.
TEXAS — @jamestalarico: “Why do we have a trillionaire when veterans are sleeping on the streets? The reason poverty exists is not because we can’t feed the poor, it’s because we can’t satisfy the rich.” (From @TeamTalaricoHQ)
