Wow, this is frightening: 95,000 scientists and researchers, gone. Brilliant minds no longer working to protect, help, and save people and the planet. Don't take this sitting down.

The subtlety of whitework always intrigues me. The level of artisanship, the tiny stitches, only for it to blend into the background makes it more special, a secret to be enjoyed by the observant or overlooked by those in search of more obvious splendour. Gown c1800

SSRIs are life-changing for millions of people. Fighting the stigma around mental illness and medication is hard enough without RFK Jr. using his platform to sow doubt, hesitancy, and shame. The cost of ripping away antidepressants is steep. If we want to save lives, we have to

ACA tax credits expired on 12/31. Trump is not complying w Epstein release but what's come out is damning. Dead bodies in the Carribbean. Fragile peace in Ukraine and the Middle East. So House floor time next week will be dedicated to... rolling back shower head and energy efficiency standards.

The Founders were so concerned about bribery that the Constitution forbids it three separate times. Two emoluments clauses ban officials—unambiguously including the president—from accepting things of value, plus bribery is the only named impeachable offense besides treason. Unprecedentedly corrupt.

Trump is boasting China will buy a “tremendous” amount of Soybeans (25 metric tons/year) REALITY: That’s less than 2024 (27MT) He’s counting on you not knowing that. Yes, It’s better than 0. Yes, Farmers need it. But putting out another fire he started does not a hero make.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.
