Just need everyone to Google the name "Rosalind Franklin" at this moment.
Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...
DNA scientist James Watson has a remarkably long history of sexist, racist public comments
“People say it would be terrible if we made all girls pretty,” he said in 2003. “I think it would be great.”

He's honest, direct & not dressing his words to convey hidden meaning or avoid answering. Everything said considers everyone, not just the most privileged
When you do that, "the right things" are bound to be said.

Cardinal' on Netflix it's a Nordic noir-esque detective series set in Northern Ontario. The characters are deep and the sweeping vistas of Northern Ontario remind you how vast and beautiful Canada is.

Mountbatten seems appropriate. Nonce.
Buckingham Palace has announced that it is removing all remaining styles, titles and honours of Prince Andrew:
"Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor."
He is also being evicted from his accommodation at Royal Lodge.
Correct action, but it should never have taken this long.

Peaceful rioting in Tel Aviv tonight by those Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans, so bad that the match was cancelled.
I wonder did the UK police ban them because 'antisemitism' or was it because they are violent thugs?
