I know Pope Leo XIV to be a kind, open, humble, modest, decisive, hard-working, straightforward, trustworthy, and down-to-earth man. A brilliant choice. May God bless him.

Yikes. Seeing real-time redox chemistry on this scale is your clue to run and/or hit the deck.
The closest footage we have gotten so far of the moments leading up to this morning’s explosion at the Iranian port of Bandar Abbas. Orange smoke, likely nitrogen dioxide, being produced by a fire interacting with a still unknown chemical can be seen right before the explosion

Three years today since the invasion of Ukraine. God, please bring peace soon. Bend swords into plowshares. Eventually, or even now, help enemies to forgive. Let hearts and minds and bodies and schools and churches and hospitals to be healed, rebuilt, filled with life again.

One of my students wrote this prayer this morning. I’m very grateful for her words.

we got a new prime number before gta6
2¹³⁶²⁷⁹⁸⁴¹−1, discovered today, is the largest known prime. It's a Mersenne prime (2ᵖ-1), which are easier to find. It took nearly 6 years for the GIMPS software to find it after the previous largest known prime. It was also the first Mersenne prime found using GPUs.

Thanks @drakedems and @DrakeCollegeRep for arranging for a satellite voting location on @DrakeUniversity’s campus. Good to see @DrakeUGriff there; he’s such a good citizen.
