The tails of Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS were a sight to behold. Pictured, C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) was captured near peak impressiveness last week over the Eastern Sierra Mountains in California, USA. The comet not only showed a bright tail, but a distinct anti-tail pointing in nearly the opposite direction. The globular star cluster M5 can be seen on the right, far in the distance.

that this is true is so, so, depressing.

Finnish children attend Kremlin-sponsored summer camp in Russian-occupied Crimea

The camp took place in July and August and included children from countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, France and Sweden.

According to the camp, more than 1,000 children from 67 countries visited during the summer. The Artek children's camp has become an important symbol of the "return of Crimea" in Russian propaganda.

What makes the Trump McDonald’s PR stunt that much more infuriating is that the media tried to treat it like a wacky feel good news story.

Because fuck forbid we stop giving this Nazi rapist a platform, am I right?

if you thot: no movie could be more disturbing than Eraserhead; nothing could outdo the SAW film series for sheer gore; film can't convey the essence of pain that Nine Inch Nails conveyed in music. You Were Wrong
Mad God 2021 [selected scenes 22mins]
30 years in the making meticulously crafted stop-action animation. a stunning masterpiece of animation craft but also 84mins of literally pointless pain and gore.

Anybody have recommendations for a free computer app that can change negatives to actual pictures?

While I borrowed a negative scanner, the ancient negatives I've come across in my family history digitization project are too large to fit.

I have an idea of how to scan with backlight (may or may not work), but then, I no longer have a photography program that instantly flips negatives like I did back in the day.

Looking forward to your recommendations.

Lest anyone think #Trump would enter a McDonald's that was open to the general public:

Dear Madam Vice President, my gift to you today on the occasion of your 60th birthday, is my vote to elect you President. Happy birthday!

Okay, this sounds like a complete scam to me. WHy are rich people so gullible?

Six more IQ points doesn't seem worth paying much for, if you ask me.
