The purple sulfur bacteria provide strong support for the purple Earth hypothesis.
In short, early Earth was largely anoxic. Since the sun’s energy reaches Earth’s surface most efficiently in the green region of the visible spectrum, the most energy-efficient way for early photosynthesizers would have been to absorb green light while reflecting red and blue—resulting in a purple color.
To compete, a new group of organisms evolved that reflected green light and absorbed red and blue to make sugars. This group also produced oxygen, which was toxic to the anoxic purple sulfur bacteria. As the Earth became increasingly oxygenated, these green photosynthesizers outcompeted the purple ones.
Purple sulfur bacteria still exist today but are limited to oxygen-free environments.
I’d wear a shirt with it.
“Uninstall”
Sure…
I had to Google this to make sure it wasn’t real.
So good job!
Makes you wonder what other times he’s borrowed that wife.

Any headline pumping site, I always go find the original cited article. I trust the researchers who did the thing over someone who has a minor understanding and a good domain name.
Tho, I do like the articles on phys.org. They often seem to have direct quotes from the authors of the research, like they actually spoke to someone. But they are less space focused and more general science news from across the spectrum.
When I complete something my anxiety about completing it goes away. But no dopamine. Just a drop in adrenaline and cortisol.
What I would give to have a dopamine response without feeding my brain my ADHD pills.
They are paraphrasing from the original news release, but poorly.
The gas cloud is being hit with so many photons of light from the stars that it is shining extremely brightly
Photons of light from the stars, as opposed to light from other things.
Generally poorly worded, but I can see what they are trying to convey. But they could have done it better.

Love Mrs True putting Everett in his place just the same as him.
Jokes on you, I keep my bills rolled in my foreskin.

Always is a terrible word. We need to ensure that filibuster removal is run on and believed by all Democrats we elect so even if it is 51/49, we can change the filibuster rule or remove it entirely.
The idea that one branch limiting another requires “popular appeal or a Constitutional Amendment” is a bit misleading. The Constitution already provides the Legislative Branch with various checks on the Judiciary. For example, Article III, Section 1 gives Congress the authority to structure the federal judiciary and set the number of Supreme Court Justices. Congress has used this power in the past to both expand and contract the size of the Court (changing the number of justices in the 1800s). This can happen without an amendment or mass public support.
Wyden’s proposal to expand the Supreme Court to 15 justices over 12 years is another example of using these constitutional mechanisms. The proposal also includes measures to increase transparency, such as requiring a supermajority to overturn acts of Congress, automatic Senate calendar placement for stalled nominations, and stricter financial disclosures for justices. None of these steps require changing the Constitution; they rely on existing legislative powers.
Explaining this to the average voter might be challenging, but the fact remains: Congress has the constitutional authority to regulate the judiciary, even if it’s not commonly exercised or well understood. Wyden’s bill seeks to use those powers to restore trust and transparency in the Court without needing a constitutional amendment.
So, the checks and balances already exist – it’s a matter of political will and the legislative process, not necessarily popular appeal or constitutional change.
I hope he is personally sued for emotional distress amongst other things. Big egos need to be shown the door.
