A Giant “Canyon” on the Sun!
On July 15, the Sun unleashed a spectacular coronal mass ejection, creating a plasma structure that looked like a massive rift stretching 400,000 kilometers — about the same distance from Earth to the Moon! 🌕

The corporate domination of the music industry that Fisher predicted is now complete and all illusions of a fair playing field or of an audience who vote with their purchasing power are over. Corporate art is now too big to fail. This is a new stage in the monopolisation of culture by global corporations that destroy everything in their shadow.
Fisher warned about the narrowing scope of modern music. In a “frozen time,” he predicted, there would be no room for any new cultural forms to emerge. All the slots would already be taken, leaving only a generic sameness that belies our sense of passing time. The music and film culture of 1975 was radically different to that of 1993, Fisher pointed out, but there is no significant difference between the music of 2003 and that of 2021. As Fisher said, “in recent years, everyday life has sped up as culture has slowed down.”
The free market can no longer be justified by the infinite consumer choice it offers. The days of endless variety are over. In many cultural arenas, you now have little to no choice as to what to consume. And things have become increasingly difficult for aspiring new artists, who cannot even get started on their careers because the creative arena is already completely dominated by corporate behemoths and by the recycled dead forms of the twentieth century. https://ewanmorrison.substack.com/p/the-great-reboot-in-memoriam-mark

"The data shows a conflicting picture, with no clear causality established, especially with regard to cancers. While reducing use of harmful chemicals in the environment and food supply is a worthy goal by itself, it is highly unlikely that it would solve the chronic disease crisis, especially in younger people and children that we are experiencing in the US and in the Western world in general."

Chemotherapy can speed up cancer spread, Chinese study finds
"A team of Chinese scientists has found that the spread of cancer from original tumour sites to distant organs can be caused by chemotherapy triggering the awakening of dormant cancer cells.
Their findings shed light on why breast cancer patients can experience cancer metastasis in organs like the lungs despite successful treatment of their primary tumours.
Researchers in the United States previously found that high doses of radiation therapy to treat cancer could paradoxically lead to the growth of metastatic tumours.
Many patients who undergo chemotherapy to treat primary tumours, the original tumour site in the body where cancer cells first start to develop, can have cancer relapses in other organs even after complete primary tumour regression.
This has led to research into whether chemotherapy can have a similar paradoxical effect, in which it both treats primary tumours and triggers cancer metastasis.
“It is postulated that the reactivation, or awakening, of dormant disseminated tumour cells (DTCs) in distant organs results in metastatic relapse after the asymptomatic period,” the team said.
Studies have shown that disseminated cancer cells, which travel from primary tumours to sites in the body, can be found even during the early stages of primary cancer formation, according to a news release by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
These cells can stay in a dormant state for years, during which they do not grow and multiply, allowing them to evade chemotherapy.
Researchers have previously identified molecular mechanisms that regulate metastatic relapse and disseminated cancer cell dormancy. However, it has not been clear whether metastasis results from the reactivation of dormant cells or the growth of rare, non-dormant disseminated cells.
“Understanding the exogenous causes of DTC awakening will help disease management of cancer survivors, offering opportunities to prevent and interrupt metastatic relapse after initial therapies,” the researchers said in their paper.
To study this, the team led by Hu Guohong, a professor at CAS’ Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health, along with researchers from Fudan University and Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, developed a cancer cell dormancy tracing approach.
The team confirmed that chemotherapy-induced reactivation of dormant cells from breast cancer could lead to metastatic relapse in the lungs of mice.
Chemotherapy induces senescence – an accelerated state of ageing in which cells stop multiplying and release inflammation-causing chemicals – in specialised connective tissue called fibroblasts.
The team found that senescent fibroblasts release proteins that cause immune cells called neutrophils to form weblike formations, called neutrophil extracellular traps, which change the environment in the lung into one that helps dormant cancer cells restart their growth.
The remodelling of the extracellular matrix, a complex network of molecules that support and surround cells, also degrades tumour-suppressing factors."

FIRE: Stephen Miller just went SCORCHED EARTH on the Russia Hoax—calling it the “single GREATEST assault on our democracy in the history of this country.”
This was a full-blown indictment of the Democrat Party, and it cut right to the bone.
“It was a coup. And I’m using that term literally.”
“A coup to overthrow a democratically elected government. A coup carried out by the intelligence apparatus of this country, by the deep state, by Hillary Clinton and the Democrat Party.”
“The new information… eliminates any scintilla of doubt about the intention, the premeditation, the planning and orchestration of this conspiracy.”
Then Miller listed the charges:
“Seditious conspiracy. Insurrection. Conspiracy against the government. Conspiracy to deprive citizens of their civil rights under color of law.”
No one was safe when Miller's hammer came down.
“Every single individual actor is now part of that conspiracy… Brennan, Clapper, Comey, Hillary, Schiff… and everybody else, who knowingly and willfully perpetrated this plot, this coup, this conspiracy, this scheme against Trump.”
“Now is the time and the hour and the moment for accountability so that we can reclaim this democracy.”

"Donor Organs Are Too Rare. We Need a New Definition of Death" - Sandeep Jauhar, NYT, 30JUL2025
>Brain death is rare. In New York State, with a population of 20 million, there are on average fewer than 500 cases suitable for organ procurement and transplantation each year.
>Far more often, people die because their heart has permanently stopped beating. Organs from people who die this way are often damaged and unsuited for transplantation.
>There is a new method that can improve donation after circulatory death: normothermic regional perfusion, doctors take a donor off life support to determine the heart has stopped beating, then they are placed on a machine that circulates blood through the body to preserve organ function.
>The solution is to broaden the definition of brain death to include irreversibly comatose patients on life support. Using this definition, these patients would be legally dead regardless of whether a machine restored the beating of their heart.

“To be in the twenty-first century,” as Fisher points out, “is to have twentieth-century culture on high-definition screens.”

"Major Quantum Computing Advance Made Obsolete by Teenager" - Kevin Hartnett, Quanta Magazine, 31JUL2018
>A teenager from Texas has taken quantum computing down a notch. In a paper posted online earlier this month, 18-year-old Ewin Tang proved that ordinary computers can solve an important computing problem with performance potentially comparable to that of a quantum computer.
>In its most practical form, the “recommendation problem” relates to how services like Amazon and Netflix determine which products you might like to try. Computer scientists had considered it to be one of the best examples of a problem that’s exponentially faster to solve on quantum computers — making it an important validation of the power of these futuristic machines. Now Tang has stripped that validation away.
>“This was one of the most definitive examples of a quantum speedup, and it’s no longer there,” said Tang
