Don't threaten us with a good time, George! 🤣

"Embattled Rep. George Santos, the New York Republican who is currently under indictment for alleged fraud, reportedly threatened Saturday to resign from his position if Republicans reach a deal with Democrats to elect a speaker of the House."

For some reason, people keep debating whether one should plant trees. In 10-20 yrs the most important thing you will have done today is plant trees. As many as you can. Specifically trees to provide shade for paths & roads, & especially shade for buildings & outdoor areas, patios, even parking areas. Plant evergreens, too, They get tall & provide shade, especially against the early morning and & late afternoon sun. Take good care of treees the 1st year, & also water trees in drought times.

Putin and company knew the US would not be able to resist doing the support dance. They have a spy partnership to maintain and weapons to sell.

Pretty fucking shameful that he can help pull the covers and show the emperors "new" clothes. We're still over here going "ugh republicans, what the heckin? Biden, what? How could you?" like this place got started all wholesome like, and is wholesome. That is -the movies-. Making it "great" again worked as a whistle for a reason.

Just your friendly reminder that the US and the EU are the largest providers of aid to Palestine.

They both have worked for a peaceful resolution of the conflict.

There are many reasons this has failed, mainly due to obstinacy and extremism on both sides.

There is only so much you can do when neither side is ready to compromise.

A bit of internet based research and I think the Colonel Atkinson who erected the Jubilee stone was Lt-Col. Ralph Bradford (1823-88), who had to change his name to Atkinson in 1871 as a condition of his inheritance of Angerton Hall - see here https://landedfamilies.blogspot.com/2016/10/234-atkinson-of-angerton-hall.html

Indeed, such ultra-high energy particles must be common throughout the universe. They probably participated in many very nearly head-on collisions over the past 13 billion years and the Universe is still here.

No accelerator here on Earth will ever collide particles at energies comparable to a head-on collision between two OMG Particles, so you can safely ignore most* doomsday scenarios the next time a new collider is switched on.

* For more details go read @AstroKatie’s book!

The OMG particle was about 50 million times more energetic than protons accelerated by the LHC. Thanks to special relativity, its collision with a stationary nucleon in our atmosphere would only have been ~100x more energetic than the LHC's head-on collisions.

This tells us the LHC can’t set off exotic catastrophes like vacuum decay, microscopic black holes, or strange matter formation. Otherwise, ambient ultra-energetic collisions in our atmosphere would have triggered such scenarios long ago.

It isn't clear whether the Oh-My-God Particle was a single proton, or a heavier nucleus consisting of several protons and neutrons.

If the Oh-My-God Particle was a proton then it had about 50 million times as much energy as the most energetic proton accelerated in a human-built collider (the 6.5 TeV protons at the LHC).

It would've been moving slower than c, the speed of light, by only about 4 parts in 10²⁴.

Reconstructing information about ultra-high energy cosmic rays like the OMG Particle is very tricky.

Fly's Eye did it by studying emissions from the cascade of collisions after an energetic particle slammed into the upper atmosphere.

Their analysis gave an energy (3.2 ± 0.9) x 10²⁰ eV for the OMG Particle. So somewhere between 37 J at the low end and 66 J at the high end, with a central value of 51 J.

The "OMG Particle" should not to be confused with the “God Particle.”

The latter is a terrible name that you should not use for any reason, while the former is a great name and all physicists are obligated to high-five whoever came up with it.

Also, the "OMG Particle" should not be confused with the "0mg particle," which is another name for a photon.

The most energetic single particle ever detected, a cosmic ray dubbed the "Oh-My-God" particle, was observed by the Fly's Eye Cosmic Ray Detector #OTD in 1991.

Its energy was about 3.2 x 10²⁰ eV ~ 51 J, equivalent to a baseball moving at almost 60 mph.

Australians at the polls tonight,
Deciding on the historic plight,
To recognize Indigenous people in the Constitution right,
It's no small feat, but a feat made with might,
We must back the referendum, with all of our might,
It's not only the Indigenous, but all in our sight,
For one Australia and for one voice, we must unite!

I love how every time I use Netflix now the app is like “bird, is it you watching or is it kids?” Like bitch when has there ever been kids at my fucking house?

Not even one time. And there certainly won’t be any any mfing time soon, okay.

Old, but worth mentioning.

If you think public education is too expensive, then you have not considered the cost of living in a society that is even dumber.
