@TuckerCarlson Looking at #nature we see diversity as not only a strength but a necessity for survival. When it comes to humans, however, we don't look at how much cooperation there is in nature which helps diversity thrive. Instead we limit diversity of thought which can stagnate minds...
@TuckerCarlson ...so we don't grow and thrive as well as we could. A crow doesn't ask an elk to be something it isn't. An elk doesn't ask a wolf to be different either. There are many lessons in #nature from which we can learn about being better humans.
@TuckerCarlson When it comes to #immigration few look at why America has done it better than most other countries, because we used to take assimilation into account more than just doing a body count. A common language helps a great deal in assimilating immigrants, yet we resist this today.
This morning I've finished Scott Kellys (@StationCDRKelly) Book "Endurance" ( bit.ly/endurance-scot… ). Some thoughts below. 
First, thank you Scott for sharing your story along with many personal insights from your time in space. It's great to learn more about the long path to become an astronaut and all the immense effort behind the human space program.
While reading Scotts book I got to understand the scale of the challenges coming with living and working in space better. It starts with having no gravity assisting you with daily life, keeping yourself healthy and alert for the hostile environment you are living in.
Sitting here in Denver waiting for a new plane (yay for the pilot who refused a broken one), & enjoying video of our fun bison encounter after filming wrapped yesterday. Growing up in CO we visited bison farms on school trips, but this was new to my NYC colleagues! #nature
Yes, that growl is from the bison. It's the sound you get if a tiger and a cow got busy.
(This is why I'm not a biologist. I would have too much fun laughing at the animals.)

Should've clarified: this was Yellowstone yesterday. I was just connecting through Denver today!
The #legitimacy of any form of #government is not and cannot be based upon #consent, but upon how well it protects the rights of those who refuse to consent.
When the bullshit is stripped away, #Socialism is #theft, and can never be a moral form of political economy, because it cannot protect the rights of those who refuse to consent to the theft of their earned wealth. Those who do consent are not prevented under any other system…
from engaging in #voluntary #cooperative #ownership of #capital. Therefore, #Socialism is not defined by voluntary participation, but by #coercion, or #theft, a universal #moral harm. #Intent is not #magic. Good intent and good works do not and cannot excuse the theft.
de tweetstorm die terugkwam, deze keer netjes gebundeld zoals het heurt:
lichte en zware voorwerpen vallen even snel, dacht Galileo al (als je even buiten de luchtweerstand rekent)

gek eigenlijk: andere natuurkrachtenkrachten dan de zwaartekracht -magnetische krachten, statische elektriciteit- werken helemaal niet zo.

Hoe zwaarder een voorwerp, hoe harder zwaartekracht trekt. Dat is de zware massa. Maar ook: hoe zwaarder een voorwerp, hoe trager het op gang komt, dat is de trage massa. #equivalentieprincipe

UNFAITHFUL SHEPHERDS
"Many years ago, the then president of The National Council of Churches warned that the danger of the great religious awakening taking place in our country, might become fanatical and be carried into our political and business life!

"Perhaps this was a fair assessment, that is, if you conflate #Christian #Zionism with religious awakening. Unfortunately, these "fanatical" #Evangelicals have 0 faith in the #Christian religion to which they give empty lip service--while paying homage to those who hate #Christ.
"For lack of faith in the actual #Bible, #Evangelicals make Scofield’ Notes, (Scofield! A drunkard and a con-man allied with the Satanist, Darby) --#Evangelicals have turned Scofield’s NOTES into a DIABOLICAL FORCE in our #national life.
1. CERN: Evren aslında olmamalı! demiş. Ancak en nihayetinde buradayız, varız. Bunu biraz daha açalım.
2. #CERN yani Avrupa Nükleer Araştırma Merkezi. İnsanlığın gördüğü en büyük laboratuvar olma namını taşıyor.
3. Bünyesinde toplamda 3 binin üzerinde insan çalışıyor ve 10 bine yakınının da dışarıdan katkısı var.
