Guilty pleasure: наблюдать, как любители парковаться во дворе занимаются раскопками.
С приходом снега выросло количество дискуссий "Пешехонов vs автомобилисты". В основном с друзьями, конечно, потому что лезть с урбанистикой во внешние интернеты это примерно то же самое, что приходить с правилами застольного этикета к зэкам в тюрьму.
Интересно, что нередко в качестве аргументов используется сослагательное наклонение или фантастика в жанре альтернативной истории: "Вот если бы сделали бесплатный паркинг напротив дома...", "Вот надо было изначально иначе проектировать дворы..." и т.д. Самое обидное, что я с этими посылами полностью согласен, но никакого решения они не предлагают. Я даже больше скажу: государство тоже не особо много что может сделать с урбанистическими проблемами города. Разве что в Москве, где у чиновников больше управленческой воли, потому что в соседнем кабинете сидит Путин, встречающий в этой самой Москве всяких Такеров Карлсонов и Си Дзинь Пиней. Но в других местах администрация действует популистски, а люди, как мы видим, выбирают некрасивые и неудобные общественные и жилые пространства в угоду личной выгоде.
Тем приятнее, что эти же самые люди, за небольшими исключениями, сейчас берут в руки щётки и лопаты, во всех смыслах разгребая последствия своего выбора.

So our son got a telescope for his birthday. But as he is way too young to use it, guess who can now take a (not perfect) look at the old gods.
Above you see an image of the moon shot with a mobile cam through the lens. I know, poor quality. But I will improve.
If you live in Central Europe and have clear skies, look south now and watch Jupiter and Saturn following the Moon.
Jupiter is a bright object some degrees to the east from the Moon, while Saturn follows Jupiter as a tiny speck in the sky.

On comets
This is an image of the comet C/2006 P1, commonly known as McNaught.
Scientists observed its tail modifying attributes of the solar wind, which is impossible by the standard model, which claims that comets are 'dirty snowballs'.
In reality, comets are charged rocks which spend most of their time in the outer regions of the solar system, where they accumulate a negative charge until they start their journey into the center of the solar system.
Their tails are visible electric discharge phenomena.
To recognize the electrical nature of comets, means recognizing the electrical nature of the universe and is key in understanding spirituality.

🌍 Earth travels around the Sun at about 107,000 kilometers per hour, yet we don’t feel it thanks to the planet’s steady movement and protective atmosphere. ✨

🌎 A star called KIC 8462852, also known as Tabby's Star, has shown highly unusual, unpredictable dips in brightness. Unlike typical stars, its brightness sometimes drops by up to 22%. Astronomers have ruled out planets and suspect dust clouds or fragments from a disintegrating comet might be causing the effect. ✨

🌎 Astronomers have detected rapid radio bursts—millisecond-long signals from distant space. These intense pulses hint at extreme events, like collapsing stars or magnetars, yet their exact origin remains one of space’s most intriguing mysteries. ✨

🌎 Space isn’t silent—astronomers have recorded eerie “whistles” and “choruses” from planets like Jupiter. These radio waves, caused by charged particles moving through magnetic fields, are transformed into sound waves we can hear when played back on Earth. The haunting tunes of space reveal hidden cosmic activity all around us. ✨

🌎 Saturn is famous for its bright rings, but these rings are mostly made of tiny bits of ice and rock, ranging from dust-sized grains to pieces several meters across. Scientists estimate the rings are relatively young—no more than 400 million years old. ✨

🌎 Some planets in our Solar System have extreme day lengths. Venus rotates so slowly that a single day there lasts 243 Earth days, making its day longer than its year. Mercury also has unusual days—one day-night cycle equals 176 Earth days. ✨
