Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to others*:
Christianity: (and politics) Christianity Today has an article on how some charismatic leaders realized that they had been wrong about Donald Trump being ordained of God to be re-elected, Some of them confessed this wrong, but in some cases there was serious backlash about such repentance.
Health: (or not) Gizmodo has prepared an exhibit, describing the seven worst charlatans of the pandemic.
Humor: (or something) A YouTube video, a minute long, showing an astronaut attempting to assemble a Lego object while in zero gravity.
Politics: FiveThirtyEight on the growing influence of news networks further to the right than Fox News, on Republicans.
Gizmodo reports that the government forgave some small business loans to organizations that spread anti-vaccination propaganda.
Science: A BioLogos writer examines reasons why we might want to colonize Mars, and finds them not sufficient.
Gizmodo reports that Chinese scientists have produced hair-sized (and shaped) ice fibers that are elastic -- they can be bent out of shape and return to the original shape.
Gizmodo discusses heat waves. An interesting fact (not the only one) is that there is no generally accepted definition of heat waves.
The graphic used in these posts is from NASA, hence, it is free to use like this.
