No money for pediatric cancer research but there's $1.7 billion for people who beat cops and smeared feces on the walls of the US Capitol.

m gonna post this video everyday so we NEVER FORGET what the INSURRECTIONIST Donald J. Trump did on Jan 6th

Stephen Colbert and David Letterman throwing things off the Ed Sullivan Theater. Colbert: “Anything you’d like to say, Dave?” Letterman: “In the words of the great Edward R. Murrow to CBS: ‘Good night and good luck, motherfuckers.’”

Albert Einstein defying the prevailing racial climate at the time by visiting Lincoln University, Pennsylvania in 1946. #science #physics #racism #neveragain

People with dementia will suffer as a result of this intentional, state-sanctioned cruelty. www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

Our town is having none of the surveillance state flock nonsense. www.newsobserver.com/news/local/c...

AI chat bots are great a creating solutions that then need iterative correction. This is a business model informed by psychology. First, give the customer something more than they are used to and seemingly a solution, but then chew up their paid tokens by having the user serially correct problems.

Epstein Survivor hearing happening in West Palm Beach now. We stand with survivors.

Carrying on the Asian tradition of scholar objects, I have more than a few tchotchkes on my desk that I enjoy looking at. One is this ocean jasper sphere that I found at a rock shop in rural NC, but I seriously doubt it originated from NC. @fossillocator.bsky.social anyway to know the origin?

Happy Mother’s Day to Renée Good. Today, we honor her memory, her courage, & the ultimate sacrifice she made. She should be here with her babies today, but her legacy lives on in the people she loved, the lives she touched, & the continued fight for a more compassionate & just world. 💐

I took in 2 roommates several years ago as well way to augment my income and have a presence in the house. They don't provide any practical assistance to me but that is something I will definitely consider as well get older because I also want to age in place www.businessinsider.com/avoided-assi...

Egon Schiele Port of Trieste (1907)

NEWS: The Epstein files are now bound into 3,437 physical volumes in a new exhibition space in Tribeca. Millions of pages. Two stories tall. And yet only two people have ever faced accountability. Katie Phang discusses the rage she felt walking through the space.

HAPPENING NOW… marching on the Capitol…. #NewJimCrow @GovBillLee

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a bioengineered chewing gum that dramatically reduces cancer-linked microbes in the mouth, including human papilloma virus (HPV) and harmful bacteria tied to head and neck cancers offering a promising new approach for cancer prevention and treatment.

Families dealing w/ dementia will suffer. A rule change pushed by Russel Vought would slash benefits or end support for as many as 400,000 Supplemental Security Income recipients with Down syndrome, dementia and other disabilities whose parents or relatives receive SNAP benefits. propub.li/3QBt2cr

Warren: “The Financial Times reported that your broker tried to buy hundreds of shares in a BlackRock fund invested in defense companies just before the war began. The law clearly prohibits the Secretary— Hegseth: (Interrupts & likely perjures himself)

Comey: Well, they're back. This time about a picture of seashells on a North Carolina beach a year ago. And this won't be the end of it. But nothing has changed with me. I'm still innocent. I'm still not afraid. And I still believe in the independent federal judiciary. So let's go.

I'm sure many have noticed the up-tick in TV commercials hawking the disease-modifying anti-amyloid infusion medications, as well as the online 'senior health' outfits trumpeting blood serum tests for Alzheimer's disease (pTau217). These two phenomena are related. youtu.be/Wz3HR0QG33Y?... 1/n

This will impact millions and only increase social/economic burdens. Older dementia patients will be moved out of the home and into facilities, where live expectancy and conditions are often lacking.

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

In 1889, Henri de Groux (1866-1930), a Belgian painter and sculptor finished his masterpiece, “Christ aux outrages (Christ attacked by the mob),” at the age of 22 yrs.

When it comes to art & myth, I don't believe in coincidences, as even the artists themselves may be unconscious of the undercurrent of social-level anxiety and woe that permeate our beings. Zeitgeist, or 'spirit of the times,' is not a new concept, but one that we often forget. 1/n

@fossillocator.bsky.social what say you? Legit? AI? Inlaid?

Like, for example, a Secretary of Defense citing a fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction to promote wars of aggression.

Most senior living facilities will have 'memory units,' but they are not likely to be well-staffed. This is where immigrant work enters the discussion. Workers are often paid by families outside of facility costs to provide additional care for their loved ones. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

New post from Pope Leo: "God's heart is torn apart by wars, violence, injustice and lies. But our Father's heart is not with the wicked, the arrogant, or the proud. God's heart is with the little ones and the humble."

After almost twenty years on the platform, EFF is logging off of X. This isn’t a decision we made lightly, but it might be overdue. 🧵 (1/5) www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists. Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.

Physical age = 96 yrs. Age of spirit = forever young. Well-being emanates from inside when one embraces the absurdities of life. #superager #levity

You could have had free universal healthcare this entire time. The money was always there.

New research shows that targeting ApoE4 and neuroinflammation may protect brain health. An ADDF-funded phase 2 study published in JAMA Network Open highlights CN-105, a novel therapy designed to mimic ApoE and reduce neuroinflammation linked to ApoE4, n/1

“Bucha survived 33 days of russian occupation, terror, torture — 33 days of total evil. 600 murdered Ukrainian men and women. Russia called it staged. Russia always does this. Actually, all evil acts this way.” President Zelenskyy addressed the European leaders at the Bucha Summit.

The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators. www.law.cornell.edu/constitution...

Accountability brings consequences. And consequences are the only language corruption understands. Money and political power do not outrank the Constitution. They just need a wake up call and it’s coming at the midterms.👇

The media refuses to cover them, because their presence at public protests doesn’t fit the narrative of “trouble-making hoodlums.” It is hard for those in power to propagandize grandma & gandpa ‘radical.’ #nokings #democracy

The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying. This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you. In the US Senate, I’ve got plan to ban it.
