Tech has really ruined a lot, but the next frontier of not ruining things is medical.

Nobel prize for mRNA vaccines is appropriate.

Initial mRNA vaccines being worked on with this technique.

This list, from the above website, is LITERALLY WHAT THE VACCINES WILL CURE:
I've a theory that absolutely no one is being heard, listened to, seen, or even acknowledged and addressed because tech broke us and co-opted our attention spans.
I feel like I'm invisible sometimes. Maybe I'll just stop buying clothes.

Serious question, is it possible it's just getting something on record without an underlying opinion?

This idea that men-as-villains leave women when they hit middle age, as a "crisis", is absolute bullshit.

We need to have a national discussion about menopause.

Something like 70% of divorces and most women's suicides are steeped in lack of addressing menopause.

This is serious shit people.

I’m not saying they’re Nazis. I’m saying being a Nazi isn’t a deal-breaker for them. I’m saying at a minimum they’re Good Germans.

Reminder: We spent YEARS reading thousands and thousands of articles on the Tea Party and how it was a true expression of the American people's will, and it never mounted anything nearly as big as Saturday's No Kings rallies. [1/3]

The networks took the much smaller Tea Party movement so seriously they broadcast a Tea Party rebuttal to Obama’s 2011 SOTU on top of the normal GOP one.

have long suspected that trump thinks the insurrection act is an instant "i win" cheat code that make his opposition go away
Trump: "I'm allowed as you know as president, like 50% of the presidents have used the Insurrection Act. Everybody agrees you're allowed to use that and there is no more court cases, there is no more anything. We're trying to do it in a nicer manner, but we can always use the Insurrection Act."

A quick rant about museum art theft: in a opinion lifted wholesale from The Rotten Library (RIP), I call art theft the peak of stupid selfishness cuz it's about ownership of an object you will not be able to share with anyone, ever.

These will be stuck in a room somewhere, forever, for one person.
Spectacular robbery of the French crown jewels at the Louvre today: three masked men climbed a ladder, broke a window, lifted nine priceless pieces from the Apollo gallery, got away on motorbikes. No one hurt.
Reportedly the most famous piece in the room, the 140 carat Regent diamond, was not taken.

It’s just incredible this isn’t the way everyone talks about him
Gov. Pritzker: "The president lies consistently, and he's got a lot of people around him who are sycophants, including JD Vance, who lie on his behalf...It's propaganda."

Antifa isn't a thing. It's so funny. There's no newsletter and there's no email blast.

Apparently walking around and listening to Hoagie Carmichael at full volume with your phone is not a bannable offense.
Sign from the protests:

🚨 NEWS: Colombian President Gustavo Petro accuses U.S. government officials of murder and violating Colombia’s sovereignty and says the Trump-ordered strike of a boat in the Caribbean killed a fisherman named Alejandro Carranza.
This is stark raving insanity.
Trump posts AI video showing him literally dumping shit on America

"Ease of access is not the only reason a chimpanzee will launch feces. When a chimp is in captivity, throwing poop is likely to cause a reaction... Chimps will begin to associate the act (throwing fecal matter) to a response (usually surprise or horror)."
