More exciting new for Sky/Star Watchers!
Comet Pons-Brooks, also known as the Devil Comet, recently intensified in its radiance and was seen by naked eyes in rural areas (no urban lights). For some it might be visible during eclipse totality. For others, try watching shortly after sunset, as the sky begins to darken. The comet will definitely be visible with binoculars or a telescope through April 21st, just above the horizon as pictured below.

Share this experience with others!

How it started:
Today I received a text a text from the 🤡 asking me to vote for him

And this is how it ended 👇

1/2
Now that I've had time to recover from working @ Primary election & from the alarm of seeing Dems switch to vote GOP for Trump🤦 I've begun looking @ state stats:

Consider these #TX stats:
∆New registered voters in 2023: 1.2M due to:
•Growth rate in 2021, from folks ages 55
to 85+ moving there was 16.6%
•% of college age kids/18+ eligible to vote
in 2023 increased by 9%
•Majority of new registered voters in all
50 states are ♀️ that's due to Dobbs

"Jon Cohen in @ScienceMagazine on the person in Texas who likely contracted highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 from dairy cows, and interviews with various experts on what to do about the spread of bird flu in the dairy cattle sector. "

Several cats in #TX also test positive with #H5N1.

It's going to be a VERY long night for me reconciling votes.

Its Presidential Primary Day in #NY & as Im working the poll I'm scared for November!

Voter #s are 33% lower than usual.
Only maga & a few Dems are voting.

If you're a Republican, Nikki Haley is on the ballot so plz go send a message to the 🤡.

If youre a Dem... a few have left their ballot blank in protest to what's happening in Gaza. i know this because the voters have announced it loudly to anyone who will listen. Theyre saying: Dont vote for genocide Joe, leave it blank in protest.
