ROOTING FOR INJURIES: THE COMING TRUMP-DeSANTIS BRAWLI think Nick Catoggio, the commentator formerly known as Allahpundit, could be right when he argues that Donald Trump will probably start attacking Ron DeSantis relatively soon: At some point an impatient narcissist will no longer be able to ignore his rival’s effrontery, especially if it’s cutting into his camera time. It’s one thing for DeSantis to steal Trump’s hand gestures, it’s another for him to steal the policy issue on which Trump has made his bones as a “fighter.” The day Trump loses his distinction as “King of the Jerks” to DeSantis is the day we have a bona fide fight o... read more

“This pretty, open cluster of stars, M34, is about the size of the Full Moon on the sky. Easy to appreciate in small telescopes, it lies some 1,800 light-years away in the constellation Perseus. At that distance, M34 physically spans about 15 light-years. Formed at the same time from the same cloud of dust and gas, all the stars of M34 are about 200 million years young. But like any open star cluster orbiting in the plane of our galaxy, M34 will eventually disperse as it experiences gravitational tides and encounters with the Milky Way's interstellar clouds and other stars.

“Very few beings really seek knowledge in this world – few really ask.

To really ask is to open the door to a whirlwind. The answer may annihilate the question and the questioner.” - Anne Rice, “The Vampire Lestat” read more

If Kylie Jenner can become a “self-made” billionaire at age 21, so can you and I!
