The retraction basically says the authors relied on unpublished Monsanto studies to make key claims, that the authors weren’t independent, that Monsanto likely co-wrote the paper, and the authors received undisclosed financial compensation.

🙏🏾📿🌱 I remember when this came on the market <<<<<

The anger, grief, love, determination, hope, and persistence of being a queer scientist, peer counselor, & student activist in Los Angeles during the height of the AIDS crisis. We invested in our futures through our bodies, work, and communities. The wild joy of breakthroughs 😢 World AIDS Day 🙏🏾📿🕯

Emotional denial is the weft and warp of American culture. How could we continue to uphold the lies about our superiority and freedom if we confront the emotional reality of what we've done to ourselves/each other?

It’s done

I don't get paid from my new gig until 12/31. My rent is going up by 33% simply cause my landlord CAN. I've spent 1497.11 on car rentals (+1836.61 in rideshare) *just* since September trying to get to births and other gigs. This last 11% can get me out of an expensive, poverty caused cycle.

We are restarting seed and bulb sales from our plant library and today is clarifying about the technology stack we will build: a different ecommerce infrastructure is necessary that aligns with a hopeful present & future.

Welp: My name is Ayo, and I was one of the 350,000+ Black women and femmes ✨laid off✨ in 2025! I'm a ✨freelance✨ illustrator for hire now, and my work can be found at ayojoy.com

Because the truth doesn’t HAVE to be brutal.

My understanding of climate change & associated risks limited my job search geographically. I was fortunate that it did not foreclose my options altogether...

There are several more hours in my shift and it looks like I for another stop so if you can toss a few bucks into my ko-fi for gas and coffee? SO APPRECIATED.

Not spending feels good as hell, tbh. I don’t miss overconsumption at all.

Reminder that we are NOT spending money this weekend. The entire holiday season needs to be a giant L for the capitalist class. Put your money into community care, local creators, artisans, craftspeople, those who know how to build/wire/etc. We are the economic engine of the system. Turn it off.

Blackskyyyyyy 🎶 Did you know that in 2026 Umoya Fellows will also be awarded a ticket to ATmosphereConf? It's true! Look for more info in December about applying ✨️

Y’all I made a mistake. Borrowed this from the library and I’ve already taken pictures of whole passages—and I’m still on the introduction. Guess I’m taking it back and getting my own copy to mark up. Good thing @haymarketbooks.org is having a sale lol 📖 Black History is for Everyone by Brian Jones

Remember when we all figure out people had their mattresses connected to the internet during that outage? I just really do not understand why your bed would need WiFi…still. Anyway, I dreamed about that last night and in the dream the mattress from a hotel stole my identity

How are people refusing to make way so an ambulance can get through? Like, we all saw the smoke from the burning car 🙏🏾📿

Big buck near the 2-year old seedlings.

And on a related note: Y’all…write your recipes down permanently somewhere. Cookbooks…journals…Post-It notes…back of napkins…ANYWHERE. Hell, in this digital age, record some accompanying videos, too. I promise you: your cooking means the world to someone that they wanna take with them forever.

Blacksky, in addition to shifting my shopping, I'm looking at the ACE Hardware model like hmmmmmm? Could I become part of starting up a new hardware store? We can be our alternative to HD etc. I'm not going back. Who else in Bay Area & Los Angeles communities thinking like this? Anybody btdt?

The Montgomery Bus Boycott lasted from Dec 5, 1955, to Dec 20, 1956. It ended after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Browder v. Gayle that segregation on public buses was unconstitutional. So, 381 days. One week should be doable. FYI - The page that was on National Park Service site is now gone.

I think its time to stop buying this brand indefinitely. Especially with things the way they are

12yo walked in here telling me about a shotgun starter for tractors & aircraft (blank shells used not shooting the engine 😭) Telling me the technology development & history of very specific military occupational safety concerns.

On LinkedIn someone said that asking ppl to talk about COVID in the present tense is pedantic. I disagree. It was Charles Sepulveda, who reminded me that when ppl talk about Indigenous people it is often use past tense, and he said that was so harmful for indigenous people. Language is essential

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO WE AIN'T BUYING SHIT ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

What I’ve observed amongst some of the children of my friends is that if you are not intentional in preventing your child from buying into anti-Blackness they’ll succumb to it.
