Of historical and psychological interest, Witten explains that when the anthropic landscape nonsense arrived, it made him uncomfortable and unhappy:

Good Morning #Canada
Everyone knows that Canada's 243,000 km of coastline are the longest in the world. At a pace of about 20 km each day, the stroll would take 33 years. Inside of that long shoreline, did you know that Canada is divided into seven physiographic regions? We're not talking mind altering drugs but instead reference the distinct geological formation that defines the landscape. The Canadian Shield, with the oldest exposed rocks on the planet, dominates the centre of the country with stable immovable bedrock. Kinda like Toronto being the centre of the universe. Each physiographic region gives that area of our country unique features and scenery that provides us with a seemingly inexhaustible opportunity to explore. I should be writing travel brochures...

This conflict can be between rational humanity and an irrational universe, between intention and outcome, or between subjective assessment and objective worth..."

The Curated Self as the New Delusion
There is a specific, modern anxiety that is difficult to name. It is not the dread of a specific event, but a low-grade, constant hum of disconnection. It’s the feeling of living in a world that is eerily frictionless, a world that reflects your own thoughts back at you with placid, unwavering agreement. It is the anxiety of a consensus of one; the quiet, digital loneliness of being the only person in your own universe.

The Alchemist assembles together a group of people from all walks of life to represent the planets in the solar system. The occult adept's intention is to put his recruits through strange mystical rites and divest them of their worldly baggage before embarking on a trip to Lotus Island. There they ascend the Holy Mountain to displace the immortal gods who secretly rule the universe.

Bored 'between the years'? Then help yourself to the papers "Primordial black holes within Higgs hybrid metric-Palatini approach", "The Serendipitous Axiodilaton: A Self-Consistent Recombination-Era Solution to the Hubble Tension" and "Ω1Ω2–ΛCDM: A promising phenomenological extension of the standard model of cosmology" all out today - #Universe at an elevated level ... ;-)

30 years ago the #HubbleDeepField was published: https://science.nasa.gov/missions/hubble/hubbles-deepest-view-of-the-universe-unveils-bewildering-galaxies-across-billions-of-years/ - other Hubble deep fields followed, and now ALMA and Webb have investigated one of them ...

Dark Energy Survey Year 6 Results - Cosmological Constraints from Galaxy Clustering and Weak Lensing: #DarkEnergy come together in a single experiment for the first time. Also Dark Energy Survey - DESI-Independent Angular BAO Measurement: https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.14864. And CosmoSlider - An educational tool for cosmology: https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.16919

So ... which simulation of the large scale structure of the #Universe is this?
(Haven't found a way to hide the solution but not the image, to make it a quiz.)
This is from the press release "Observing synapses in action" - https://www.charite.de/en/service/press_reports/artikel/detail/observing_synapses_in_action - about the paper "Dynamic nanoscale architecture of synaptic vesicle fusion in mouse hippocampal neurons", https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-67291-6 ;-)
