Do your best on Saturday.

Above ALL else stay calm.

It’s going to be so hard.

You’re going to get pissed.

You’re going to want to lash out.

Don’t do it.

Stay together.

Be safe.

If all else fails just walk away.

I don’t want to hear about any of you getting hurt.

This amazing image by Don Goldman shows the central region of the open cluster NGC 2244 (Caldwell 50), in the heart of the Rosette Nebula (also known as Caldwell 49).

The cluster and nebula lie some 5,000 ly away in Monoceros.

The image depicts the heart of the Rosette Nebula, a vigorous star-forming region. A bright open cluster, NGC 2244, glows at the center, surrounded by intricate gas and dust filaments. Colors highlight specific elements: red for sulfur, green for hydrogen, and blue for oxygen.

The Vice President of the United States will not unequivocally condemn Young Republicans for saying that their perceived political opponents should be sent to gas chambers.

Vice President JD Vance downplayed the severity of racist texts leaked from a Young Republican group chat, dismissing the criticism as "pearl clutching" and attempting to draw attention to a Democrat texting scandal instead.

Kaine: "We should not be allowing the president to create a secret enemies list and make the unilateral decision about whether to kill people without sharing that information at least with the Armed Service and Intel committees. So this is very troubling."

All the press reporters have handed in their press badges to the Pentagon, even Fox propaganda News handed in their press badges. The regime is losing control. We the People are fighting back. The regime is going to increase the violence to try to get us back down. Don't stop the resistance.

Every day, I remind myself that I'm as young as I'll ever be. I don't waste time thinking about what "could have been." Whatever it is...it wasn't. I focus on the fact that I've got as much spring in my step as I'm ever going to have...and I milk it for every damn drop I can get.
