343 years ago, on the 17th of September 1683, Dutch scientist Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek wrote about his observation of microbes to the Royal Society, which is the first known observation of bacteria in history. Van Leeuwenhoek referred to them as 'diertjes' (Dutch for 'small animals'). #otd ๐๏ธ
UT students, make sure you are registered to vote. Then vote in the midterms!!!! A handful of University of Texas students found themselves as unwitting political footballs, caught in the middle of an ugly debate over who gets to be called an American or Texan.
University of Texas students speak out after Texas GOP nominee calls them โforeignersโ in viral post
Undergrads Dhairya Gupta and Rahul Kodali went to a thrilling Longhorns game โ only to become unwitting political footballs.

Kudos to everyone using paw protectors for their pup so far just one and we both are worn out ๐พ๐พ
The identity of the shooter has not been disclosed. The motive and conditions of the shooting have also not been revealed. In the United States, where we have more guns than people and increasingly lax gun carry laws, access to a firearm often escalates an otherwise benign interaction.
Although he was unhoused and struggling financially and physically, Jon uplifted those in his presence, and he deserves justice. He certainly did not deserve to be shot dead on a Texas sidewalk on a Saturday afternoon.
Please read about the horrific and senseless death of Jon Robert Ruff, please share and follow the @thebirthdayfairy.bsky.social #blues #guncontrolNOW
The Birthday Fairy Project@thebirthdayfairy.bsky.social ยท yesterdayToday, September 16th, is the birthday of Jon Robert Ruff. He was shot and killed on a public sidewalk in broad daylight in 2025 in Denton, Texas. Jon was a Navy veteran and held a degree in Computer Science from the University of Southern Mississippi.
Trumpโs EPA will no longer limit pollution from gas and coal-burning power plants. Reminder: Trump took millions of dollars in donations from Big Oil, and his EPA chief Lee Zeldin is cozy with the coal industry. Is there anything this regime wonโt destroy to please its bankrollers?
Trump's EPA repeals pollution limits on fossil fuel power plants
The Trump administration is eliminating limits on climate-warming pollution from the nation's fossil fuel power plants.

LA Blue Dot in GA ๐๐ธ@namwella1961.bsky.social ยท yesterdayNew Republic: Trumpโs EPA will let power plants poison our air as much as they want. It's maddening that we have politicians who refuse to support clean air and water, because they are being paid millions from those industries not to. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

Seth Abramson@sethabramson.bsky.social ยท 3d agoThe video of this is genuinely unsettling. He literally appears to have no idea what the journalist is talking about when she mentions January 6โeven when she clarifies that she is talking about 2021 and about the rioters at the Capitol that day. He looks at her blankly. Scary.

In the 1950s there were an estimated 5 million elephants in Africa. In 1970s the population dropped to approximately 1.3 million and in 2000s numbers plummeted to 400,000. Now mega herds are starting to reappear, thanks to conservation efforts. Original post
