Always great reasons to support PBS. The fantastic Broadway musical Suffs is now available for all to see. We must "Keep Marching" and insisting on the Rights for all that is the promise of this country. Highly recommend these both for your viewing.

T-cell research is showing great promise. Cancer must continue to be fully funded.

What can the Star Wars show “Andor” teach us about standing up to tyranny? A lot. (May the Fourth be with you.)

Music training improves math skills. Teach your children both.

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tel everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Peace doesn't begin somewhere out there, but within you. In every breath, every thought, every decision. When you choose to practice compassion instead of judgment, to act with love instead of fear, you change so much. You become a beacon, reminding others that this light also lives within them.

The President of the Association for Surgical Education, Dr. Aimee Gardner, is giving her presidential address with her baby,* reconciling two things we are told are at odds with each other (albeit only women)—career and family. What a powerful use of her position! *not for lack of childcare

Well played your highness.

If a bird flu pandemic starts, we may have an mRNA vaccine ready A final-stage trial has started of an mRNA vaccine against the bird flu strain infecting many animals and occasionally people worldwide. A big step to stop a possible pandemic. www.newscientist.com/article/2523...

NIH research grants are essential for driving medical breakthroughs that save lives and help make treatments more accessible and affordable. And it also keeps the United States as the world leader in cutting edge medical advances, which is vital to our economy.

This is discouraging enough though combined with the data center proposed growth and water pollution sets the stage for tragedy in our ability to feed our country.

The thought of this thing running after you that fast is nothing short of creepy.

Not much real about "reality TV", not much to celebrate about calling them "celebrities" just because they have a camera on them. Yest this is what too many people now consider normal and which gives them permission to behave inappropriately.

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces. Equals 10 nuclear reactors Reduces heat island, shades cars The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight. Why aren't we doing this?

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Ugh, alright but only if I can weed them just before they get their fluffy seeds to spread. Already doing my part.

If folks want to have a voice they need to use it to vote - and elect people who will actually listen and represent them, within the Constitution and laws that support everyone.

Creativity is about creating. It doesn't have to be something that makes sense to an adult. Instead of asking a child what their art is, ask them to just tell you about it, let their ideas soar. Open creativity is powerful. Even Legos used to be a box of blocks not a specific predetermined product.

1) Sound pollution is real & can have extremely negative impacts. 2) Projects across the country suck up everyone's water in a non- closed system & release toxic byproducts. 3) They increase everyone's power bill. 4) Don't let greed fool your community. Whoever profits isn't likely living there.

Octavia E. Butler, 1998:

There's a strange myth about science: that theory comes first, and that data cannot show anything new. But anyone who's ever done science knows the truth that there's a long conversation between data & hypotheses. Back & forth.. until the discovery. And if you think about it, it has to be this way!
