When Tim Walz, a candidate for U.S. Vice President says American’s don’t have the right to free speech, you know the world is in a bad place. Especially as the U.K. is arresting its citizens for social media posts and France is arresting CEOs of social media companies. A dark curtain has fallen across Europe. The recent events involving the arrest of Pavel Durov, CEO of Telegram, and the subsequent flight of Chris Pavlovski, CEO of Rumble, from Europe, underscore a troubling trend in the...

The withdrawal of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from the presidential race and his endorsement of former President Donald Trump was yet another extraordinary moment in an election that has been anything but predictable. Only a year ago, it would have been unthinkable that a sitting president would be effectively forced off a ticket and replaced by a candidate who did not secure a single vote for president. Now, the nephew of John F. Kennedy and son of the Robert F....

Maine coon kittens are like tiny little fluff balls with wicked paws and claws. There are cat lovers who will own nothing but a Maine coon. Others find out that their new kitten is a Maine coon when it fails to stop growing. When Shannan Watkins adopted her little kitten, we aren’t sure if she knew what she was getting. @shannnanwatkins #mainecooncat #catsoftiktok ♬ Originalton – LLKV LLPS LLLL Shannan adopted her cat as a kitty shortly after weaning. The tiny bean was a curious fluff ball, and she named her Amanda. Tiny baby Amanda did cute tiny baby kitten things, like watching the clothes tumbling around in the dryer. Unfortunately, when you feed and water tiny kittens, they tend to grow. Thus, Shannan watched the metamorphosis of tiny little Amanda to GREAT BIG AMANDA. Although the transformation may have seemed like it occurred overnight, it did take some time. Maine coon kittens don’t reach full size until they are between three and five years old. These cats have a reputation for being larger than life (think Garfield-sized). Image from TikTok. Maine coons are one of the larger breeds. Males average 13 to 18 pounds, while females are smaller and range from 9 to 13. Much of the reputation for being feline giants probably stems from their luxurious coats. These gorgeous animals have some of the longest fur in the cat kingdom. Maine coon kittens display other “trademark” characteristics. They have large murder mittens (paws), bushy ears, and tails with tufted fur. They have very expressive eyes with eye colors of green or gold and sometimes blue. You might also see a Maine coon with heterochromia (two different-colored eyes). A Maine coon might have been the model for the Beast’s face in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast!

In ancient Babylonia, being king was a privileged position, but celestial events like eclipses posed significant threats. Babylonians believed that eclipses signaled divine displeasure and foretold disasters such as rebellion, war, or even the king’s death. If an eclipse predicted the king’s demise, he would temporarily go into hiding, and a substitute, often a prisoner or a simpleton, would be installed in his place. Once the danger passed, the substitute would be executed to appease the gods. The Babylonians, in the second millennium B.C., viewed celestial phenomena as prophetic. Eclipses, in particular, were interpreted as angry messages from the gods. Assyriologist Andrew George, an emeritus professor at the University of London, led a study decoding four cuneiform tablets dating from 1894 B.C. to 1595 B.C., revealing ominous predictions about kings’ deaths and civilization’s downfall. These tablets, from Sippar (modern-day Iraq), contain 61 predictions, including warnings of natural disasters and societal chaos. Babylonians believed that the heavens mirrored earthly events, so a solar or lunar eclipse suggested that a significant figure, like a king, would be “eclipsed.” This belief may have originated from the coincidental timing of an eclipse and a king’s death or developed purely by analogy. Babylonian divination practices included interpreting various omens, such as the behavior of birds or the appearance of animal entrails after sacrifice. These rituals were tools to predict and possibly alter the future, often manipulating the king’s actions and decisions. The substitute-king ritual, associated with the Neo-Assyrian period, may have been performed for figures like Alexander the Great. Despite significant progress in deciphering these ancient texts, many remain untranslated in the British Museum’s collection, awaiting further study.
