ONE MORE!
here is the same #NASA #eclipse simulation but zoomed out, to see more of Earth in Space:

they've expanded the graphic metaphor of the #eclipse's path: it's that purple that i talked about at the top of the thread.

look how the "light" of the eclipse is that purple that's hitting the Americas: from northwestern North America to all of Central America and The Caribbean to the northern half of South America.

but w/o the curves, it wouldn't give us the whole story.

🗣️ 📣 THIS IS ART!

Y'ALL!

LOOK AT HOW BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED AND HELPFUL THIS MAP IS!!!

and this is totally a subtoot for anybody in engineering who thinks the principles of ART are not TECHNÉ.

there is no technology without art and this #NASA interactive celestial map of the Earth is now your new bar to reach.

also, i now have to correct the previous toot. it goes from 35% to 60% to 85% visibility in the middle.

this map also shows the elliptical path over parts of Perú and Bolivia.

that curvature is 💯

Y'ALL!

was not feeling the annular #eclipse map that only includes USA. in the link i posted above, under the embedded eclipse simulation, there is a link that says "View Full Screen"

look at how beautifully the artists rendered the paths of the eclipse:

1) they calculated their widths
2) colored them with a violet-black
3) then changed the opacity by the degree of visibility. so 35% visibility = 35% opacity

more at the ALT!

wish i could watch the annular eclipse. sounds awesome.

one of my #momGoals was to watch an #eclipse with my sons and i did a few years ago here in nyc.

my nerdlette home was in front of a playground. i loved lying on the floor at night, to count the stars with my mom or dad or brother or us all. was fun to cheer the ocassional meteor.

they're Ancestors now. i miss them terribly.

my long-gone life with them are memories i get to humbly gift to my sons & the world.

#Mafalda: Libertad, you're putting it upside-down!

Libertad: Upside-down relative to what? Earth is in space & Space has no up or down...

the deal of the Northern Hemisphere being up is a head-game made up by those who think they're up so that those of us who think we're down, keep on thinking we're down. worse, if we keep on believing we're down, we're going to stay down. so from now on, dafuggouttahere!

Mom: where were you Mafalda?

Mafalda: i dont know but i think it got dafuggouttahere.

ps: y a todo los latinoamericanos que lean esto en busca de información sobre el #eclipse anular de mañana, el 14 de octubre de 2023

🗣️ 📣 SHOUT OUT TO #ARGENTINA FOR GIVING US THE GIFT OF JOAQUÍN #Quino LAVADO, #MAFALDA AND THE MAPS OF HER FRIEND LIBERTAD

YOU CANNOT TAX OUT OF EXISTENCE
people who believe they are gods.

one of the greatest misunderstandings about the revolutions of the 1700s is that they ultimately were not by the people, for the people but were led by nascent oligarchies muscling out monarchs who claimed their power was divine.

techbros are a throwback: they want to bring back monarchism. they believe they are a new kind of royalty as billionaires; divine-like, because their spyware makes them all knowing gods…

what @AnarchoNinaAnalyzes is pointing to is another one of the phenomenons of #fascism that people never reckon with:

THERE ARE NO FASCISTS WITHOUT GOD COMPLEXES

this is what has many people in disbelief about the #techbro coalition, especially Zuckerberg, who notoriously helped elect Obama.

but he has always been a sociopathic conman with baby-looks who charmed his way to god-like power by making real the all-watching, all-knowing “information awareness” state:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_Awareness_Office

this by @AnarchoNinaAnalyzes is such an obvious point to us historians, it bears repeating:

❝ So, as much as it might seem like I'm losing my shit over some barely used websites and statues in museums, the truth is that the Trump regime is making no secret of its attempts to reshape our past, to control our future…❞
https://social.treehouse.systems/@AnarchoNinaAnalyzes/114299427930137182

IT IS NO COINCIDENCE #AI IS PIVOTAL TO THIS GASLIGHTING.

techbros believe they now have control of all cultural production, and by extention, Humanity.

« One prominent deals lawyer described himself as “flabbergasted” as he grappled with how far the share prices of his clients had fallen. A top Goldman Sachs executive summed up the frustration with Mr. Trump succinctly: Someone has to stop him.»

❝ SOMEONE HAS TO STOP HIM ❞

corruptocrats are now #woke to the fact the orange fuckwad was talking LITERALLY about destroying the world economy.

“Wall Street’s Decision Makers Brace for More Chaos After Markets Plunge”
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/06/business/stock-market-plunge-investment-bank-impact.html?unlocked_article_code=1.9k4.thee.Qx6AABTI3Kyw

about that 3.5% of the population needed for regime change?

that would be 11,900,000 organizing and willing to shut shit down and break with the status quo.

11,900,000 need to show up ans shut shit down to effect change.

2.3 million showed up today to #HandsOff and tens of thousands more at #TeslaTakedown #protests.

to put it into perspective: 75,000,000 is the total of non-supressed votes casted for Harris & Walz last November.

tis a good start.

REMINDER:

fascists do not consider any form of #protest as #peaceful.

Trump and the fascist MAGA, GOP, techbro, christofascist machine will find a way to call "violent" #HandsOff and any protests, because you are showing your disloyalty to them.

you don’t go to protests because they’re peaceful. you go as a first, collective step in defending ourselves from people who literally want us imprisoned, totured and dead.

protest is one of many tactics in collective #selfDefense. remember that.

NOW THE DON’TS

- to paraphrase @D_J_Nathanson every day is #STFUfriday and you never, ever talk to a cop, ESPECIALLY during protest.

https://esq.social/@D_J_Nathanson/114281947496926860

i always canvas all the points of entry and exit for a manif and especially check where cop cars are posted because they are there to block you.

but you know who i also look for:
- firefighters
- National Lawyers Guild

in NYC, all EMS at manifs is done by FDNY. you need to ask a question or need help? go find FDNY… 🧵

the #protest Do’s, cont:

- if you are going alone, go find:
- labor unions
- religious group
- student groups

- DOCTORS AND SCIENTISTS, WEAR YOUR LAB/HOSPITAL COATS. you don’t have to, but it’s always cool to see doctors in their coats at protests.

- YES #BikeTooters RIDE YOUR BIKES. here in NYC we sometimes have the local equestrian clubs at protests. horseys are always rad.

- did i say, WEAR A MASK AND BRING EXTRA? and not just an N95. #cosplayers do your thing… 🧵

The Do’s, cont:

- WEAR A MASK AND BRING EXTRA TO SHARE

- take all your medications. no, do not assume you’ll be back home in time to take that one Rx at that x-time. bring the dosage with you.

- if your asthmatic, bring your inhaler

- wear a maxi pad: bathrooms will be hard to find. maybe even wear “disposable underwear” if your bladder is on the weaker side.

- EAT A FULL MEAL A COUPLE OF HOURS BEFORE YOU. yes, give yourself time to have a bowel movement.

am keeping it real here… 🧵

the #protest Do’s, cont:

- if you need to wear a dress or skirt, WEAR SHORTS UNDERNEATH

- forget makeup but wear sunscreen

- do not give cops hair to grab you by: wear your hear in a bun. if braids, wrap them tight with a scarf.

- DO NOT WEAR RED HATS

- consider wearing cottons, rayons, light wools. basically, breathable fabrics.

- wear layers. if wearing a hoodie, zippers are best.

- WEAR SNEAKERS, WORKER BOOTS, CLOSED WALKING SHOES. keep your toes protected and feet comfy… 🧵

The Do’s cont:

- bring extra maxi pads: in case of injuries, they make great staunchers of blood.

- for that matter, bring a small first-aid kit. you may need it for blisters from all that walking. also toilet paper and a hand towel.

- bring more water than you think you’ll need. carry high-protein snacks like almonds. dont bring sugary snacks (they’ll dehydrate you) but definitely bananas or grapes.
- if you can, bring to share, even if it is just one extra ration.

let’s talk clothes… 🧵

liza’s dos and dont’s of protest:

The Do’s:

- ALWAYS TELL SOMEONE YOU TRUST THAT YOU’RE GOING

- write on your body, with permanent marker, the following phone numbers:
- emergency contact
- your doctor
- local National Lawyers’ Guild
- church, synagogue, mosque or place of worship
- your lawyer, if you have one

- turn off your phone.
- you can use old phones without a card to take photos.
- if in a group, there’s walkie-talkie like apps that y’all can use P2P

❝ aujourd’hui, seuls 26% des Français estiment que les États-Unis et la France partagent des valeurs communes – un chiffre en chute libre par rapport à 2004, où ils étaient encore la moitié à le penser.

En clair, les États-Unis ne font plus rêver : seulement 22% des Français aimeraient vivre aux États-Unis et 20% y travailler, soit des baisses de 8 et 17 points en l’espace de quinze ans.

[EEUU] sont donc passés en un temps record d’un pays ami à pays adversaire ❞

here’s the thing,

Macron has not just pull in Europe, but he is basically riding on some serious polling done on French sentiment towards EEUU: from an all time high of a 65% of yays and hi5s during the #Obama admin, only 25% of French people think positively of USA

❝ Rendez-vous compte : entre 2010 et aujourd’hui, les États-Unis ont perdu 40 points de cote de sympathie chez les Français, ce qui est énorme.
