Very simple:

Eliminate all health & welfare support;

Undermine all judiciary interference;

Replace all facets of Education with unresistable Brainwashing;

Eliminate the population in subtle stages: first the "illegal"s, then racial selection, then those who don't fit the determined "norm", basically& eventually anyone who seems resistant to the "program"; mass extermination will reduce remaining resistance, easing the pressure of "too many people to control"; then replacing the population with docile slaves fathered by the mindlessly deformed predators, grooming & controlling the freaks' growth with only what the Program allows: voila! The "master race"! (aka Project 2025)

On the other hand, this particular world system we have been born into, is simply doing what world systems do. & the life-forms it's hosting are behaving quite naturally, assuring this world-system's perseverance...

Though not necessarily "their own"!

It's Absolutely Saturday!

GEOMAGNETIC STORMS ARE POSSIBLE TODAY: NOAA forecasters say that minor G1-class geomagnetic storms are possible today, May 2nd, as a fast-moving stream of solar wind buffets Earth's magnetic field. There is a slight chance the storm could escalate to category G2. If so, auroras would be visible after nightfall in northern-tier US states. Solar flare alerts: SMS Text

A GIANT RING OF ELLERMAN BOMBS: Astronomers are monitoring a very large sunspot now turning toward Earth. Sunspot 4079 stretches more than 140,000 km from end to end and has two dark cores each large enough to swallow Earth. Moreover, it is surrounded by a ring of Ellerman Bombs:9

Philippe Tosi took this picture from his backyard observatory in Nîmes, France, and inserted an image of Earth for scale. "It is an impressive sunspot," he says.

Note the pinpoints of light ringing the two dark cores. These are Ellerman bombs: Magnetic explosions about one-millionth as powerful as a true solar flare. A handful are circled for reference. Named after physicist Ferdinand Ellerman who studied them in the early 20th century, a single Ellerman bomb releases about 1026 ergs of energy--equal to about 100,000 World War II atomic bombs.

Ellerman bombs are a sign of magnetic complexity in a sunspot. Opposite polarities bump together, reconnect, and--boom! A full-fledged flare may not be far behind.

SOLAR WIND STORM IN PROGRESS: Earth has entered a stream of fast-moving solar wind with gusts reaching 700 km/s (1.6 million mph). G1-class geomagnetic storms and high latitude auroras are possible on May 3rd. Aurora alerts: SMS Text

A VERY BIG SUNSPOT: How big is it? Sunspot 4079 is, by far, the biggest sunspot of 2025. It stretches 140,000 km across the solar disk and covers an area equal to 50% of Carrington's sunspot in 1859. Amateur astronomer Eduardo Schaberger Poupeau of Rafaela, Argentina, peered into the sunspot's dark heart on May 2nd, and this is what he saw:

The two jet-black cores are each large anough to swallow Earth. They are bristling with hair-like solar fibrils as much as 20 thousand km long. Fibrils are, essentially, magnetic tubes that guide hot plasma in and out of the sunspot. When they start to wave back and forth, it means the sunspot is becoming unstable and about to erupt. Videos of the sunspot show dynamic activity within these structures.

Any solar flares this weekend will be geoeffective as the giant sunspot turns toward Earth. 

THE CME HAS ARRIVED: Arriving hours earlier than expected, a CME struck Earth's magnetic field on April 15th (1700 UTC), and a minor G1-class geomagnetic storm is underway as a result of the impact. It's too soon to say whether this is just the first of two expected CMEs -- or perhaps a cannibal combination. NOAA forecasters say the storm could intensify to category G3 (Strong) in the hours ahead, depending on the strength and orientation of magnetic fields in the CME's wake. CME impact alerts: SMS Text.

These data from NOAA's DSCOVR satellite show how the CME's arrival altered Earth's solar wind environment:

The density of solar wind plasma abruptly jumped by a factor of almost ten. This means the CME delivered a relatively heavy blow to Earth's magnetosphere. Stay tuned for updates as Earth's moves deeper into the CME's wake.
