The James Webb Space Telescope just took this selfie.
This image was created using a specialized pupil imaging lens inside the NIRCam instrument that was designed to take images of the primary mirror segments instead of images of space.
This configuration is not used during scientific operations and is used strictly for engineering and alignment purposes. In this case, the bright segment was pointed at a bright star, while the others aren’t currently in the same alignment. This image gives an early indication of the primary mirror alignment to the instrument.

Tribes fought for land and won and they fought for land and lost. I would be interested in knowing if a defeated tribe's burial grounds were respected by the victor tribes.

Poll warns "Colder Than A Witch's Tit" and other phrases in danger of dying out.
Perspectus Global, a PR, and media research firm, just released the results of a new survey that places several idioms on the endangered phrase list. Language changes – and some traditional sayings that are falling by the wayside.
Here are a few other notably endangered phrases, along with the percentage of respondents who were unfamiliar with them:
Speaking of titties...
I once put together reasons to live in central South Carolina. I listed the lack of tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes, gang violence, and being far down on Russia's first strike targets. I was wrong on that last one.
After several comments on the site degrading the Appalachians other commenters wrote this:
Think the Appalachians aren't shit?
Remember the Appalachians, Sottish Highlands, and the Atlas mountains in Morocco were once a single mountain range when they formed.
And...

Sometimes I procrastinate many things at once - like multi-tasking. I call it multi-crastination and it's exhausting.
FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY
My wife found a neat gravy boat in the back of my closet.

See anything...odd?
Here's a hint...
Okay, let me spell it out for you...
Paul Newman glancing at his “Noscar” next to his wife, Joanne Woodward, with her actual Oscar statuette, 1958.
She made the "No Oscar" for him.

Heisman Trophy winner George Rogers once wrote a check for $10,000 and on that line, he wrote cocaine - True.
The guy is a voice on the radio and people take medical advice from him. I have a doctor for that. We need to use some good old-fashion horse sense.
My wife told me that she thinks Malaysian Flight 370 that disappeared a few years ago went to another dementia...yes, dementia.

Think of the genius of that. You don't have to shoot down a jet or blow up a tank - you just have to disable the crew.
I read that there have been documented cases of stranded people starving to death because they simply could not eat things like snakes and bugs. Not me. I would eat your corpse if it meant I wouldn't die.
I've never heard of one of those bridges in America. But wouldn't predators learn to just wait on the bridge to ambush their prey?
People say not to bite off more than you can chew. I say it's better to choke on greatness than to nibble on mediocrity.

The Game of Life
I would love to have all the old coots who think everything is just peachy with America to play a board game of life with the new economy as the rules.

SO NOW WE BURN BOOKS
We've been down this road before.
Two idiots in cars were speeding and cutting each other off intentionally on a crowded freeway putting everyone at risk and then this happened...
That man decided that the punishment for rude driving should be death. He did this knowing he was being filmed by his own camera. And he shoots like a 6-year-old little girl.
1950’s bricks being removed from an 1800s building.
The Romans, Greeks, Mayans, etc recognized the worth of beautiful architecture. Even the earliest hominids decorated their caves with murals. But now we tolerate ugliness for the sake of saving a buck or two.

After countless recounts and numerous court rulings it has been proven that he lost by 7m votes.

The Republican Party is self-destructing before our eyes and that saddens me.

Question: The news media includes the suicide of two Capital Cops in the Jan. 6 body count. I would like to know the rate at which capital cops killed themselves before Jan. 6.

The Japanese also don't call their country Japan.

Regarding C7
There is an animal crossing bridge just north of Missoula Montana.
I used to live in central Montana. There are missile sites all over the place. That's why it will be obliterated in a nuclear war.
I am puzzled by the strike in the most northern part of Idaho. I have no idea what could be there that needs to be nuked.
