Oh, so what he is saying, is that they started talking. Right? Weren't they doing that already this whole time? I mean... they really expect people to have zero memory?

Meh, it's just 'men be men', what's the news in that - that's just normal stuff. Now, had he been shouting something not in English, or was of a darker complexion... Now that would be newsworthy! Unheard of. A scandal. Something that would need immediate action. From everybody.

Noice :) Both the quote and the po-tatoes :D

At two rallies before his 1st time in office, Trump said he didn't believe his hair spray could escape his air tight bathroom and move miles up to do anything with the ozone layer. Thank goodness a hero (to humanity) must have talked him out of leaving the Montreal protocol.

So, the South-African/American fascist multi-billionaire who wants to own a planet, became a trillionaire and now owns as much as 46% of the total population of Earth's poorest - combined. What kind of system is it where 1 person owns literally everything? Would "ownership" mean anything then?

Donald Trump’s name removed from Kennedy Center building and website after judge's ruling Place your bets how much will be paid from the slush fund directly to him "for damages sustained from lawfare against his name". news.sky.com/story/donald...

Awesome! :D But i do hope the green bit does not taste like mint, or the red like chilly, because that's where I draw the line! :D

I imagine this maye have been THE one time in history when Mimi was in her "home" :D Otherwise, she would be either on the couch, the chair, on the laptop, in a bag, but most often in an emptied cardboard box.

Does not "leaking information" mean confidential information being shared with the public? How could anybody "leak" the opposite of information? Yoda would say "Making sense, this is not."

Or as close to reality as humans have been able to get so far. Which is really cool. #science is an acievement, it's a tool, it's an investement and for some, it's a calling.

While his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse — gleefully. Read more: www.theverge.com/tech/949259/...

OK, I did NOT know about them being able to do this!

That's the good stuff!

Northern Ireland is gripped by #riots. Why? Because of a man attacked another man in Belfast and savaged his face with a knife. This set off a storm of violence. Not the stabbing that took place a week before in Carrickfergus, fairly near Belfast, where a man stabbed another in he chest and face.

I guess the number has to do something with how many time he shorted oil prices right before saying it.

I think it is important to point out that the ideas espoused by the people currently in charge of healthcare and biomedical research in the USA will not stay in the USA and we here in the UK might find ourselves to be in a similar if not worse situation in just a very few short years.

Absolutely shocking. The speaker of the house, one of the most powerful politicians in the USA suggesting that elections should not be trusted, evidence about election fraud should not be asked for and then lamenting on the need to regain trust in elections in the same breath he used to smear it.

Oh... They do K N O W

Not raw milk.

As much as I would not mourn a maffia boss-style president's passing, those who wish him dead as soon as possible might think one step ahead and ask themselves, whether it would be better or worse if the current giant racketeering organisation was turned into a holy war machine?

They made the Pride parade legal again in Hungary. Good! It is worth noting that while it was illegal and people organizing and attending were threatened by legal action, still about 100000 people marched in Budapest in 2025. www.politico.eu/article/hung...

It seems like this needs to be brought up again, as Tesla sales are surging in some European countries. That salute was neither unintentional nor a mistake. It was a deliberate test of how far he could go in a USA becoming a fascist state - being run this time directly by the billionaire class.

We are tiny dots on a little dirtball that has a really thin layer of water and air on its surface - when we compare ourselves to "what's out there". Yet we are like a planet compared to the bacteria that live in us by the billions, and MUCH bigger compared to... youtube.com/shorts/fKMGM...

🪼 Your tax dollars paid a scientist to squeeze jellyfish through cheesecloth. Osamu Shimomura processed tens of thousands on an NSF grant to understand why they glow. He found a protein that glowed green under UV light. Called it "green protein." Nobody cared. For decades.

"Shake up" is the new word for hollowing out.

I think that in the distant optimisitc future where humanity survived and spreads among the star systems, colonizing many planets, Earth might get renamed to Eden - because every misery is relative.

Trump walks and talks like a maffia boss. He actually acts like a maffia boss. He even calls his son Don Junior. OK, there is one thing however that makes me think he cannot be an actual maffia boss. He repeatedly insulted the Pope and I can't imagine a maffia boss ever doing that.

I think about this a lot.

Tried to get a parking spot at my work place and got myself on the waiting list. On the waiting list for 9+ years now. What's the longest you've been on a waiting list?

whoaaaaa

Do not need to go that far. 1st year Zoology class introduction, dealing with questions like "what's life", "what's an animal" the professor also asked "how many animals species are there?". Turns out, there is no definitive answer to that question, only wildly different estimates.

NIH funded peeps: This is insane and coming for us.

Every summer I repost this article on how to spot drowning. Please read it and pass on. In the last few years I’ve had SIX messages from people who saved a kid’s life after clicking on the link from my feed. slate.com/technology/2...

Yeah it's toxic. But don't fret, Tesla - as Elon said - is no longer a car maker. In his dream, those cars will be supplanted by millions and millions of marching optimus robots (as soon as he can get enough robotics experts bankrolled to make it happen), controlled by his AI. So much better, eh?

When a question like "can we trust you?" is asked, it is usually a polite way of saying "we don't trust you that much any more".

The hunter's laser focus is unshakable!

"the extreme sacrifice to run for office" wow no comment

A fountain of disinformation from doctors who specialize in it.

Brilliant

The sad thing is, even a year ago I would have dismissed out of hand the text below as "probably fabricated". Now I'd need to check the source if i was on Truth - I'm not. So I would need to check if this was reported by any reputable news org. But should I spend my time on this? Noppe.

That's a "bird thing", even chickens (with limited flight capability) have pretty awesome spatial head stabilisation: www.youtube.com/shorts/5vJgi...

The scientific view of nature is humanity's current best understanding of nature. It is as flawed as humans are, and is being contiunally revisited and tested and evolves with new data and new ideas. It is however, still the best we've got.

You're entitled to your own opinion. You're NOT entitled to your own facts. #BelieveTheScience What he said 💯 👇 👇 👇

This is very important, as we seem to be getting to the end-game of the Trump administration's "anti-science" policy, which is to drive researchers out of their jobs to be hoovered up by biliionaires' private institutions. Which of course could always use an infusion of some federal money...

THAT would be a redeeming quality in his case, I'm afraid...
