On 29th January 1996, "Threshold", the Star Trek: Voyager episode where Captain Janeway and Tom Paris turned into giant space newts and had babies first aired. Since it's #ThresholdDay we aim to answer a burning question: did Paris and Janeway fuck? If so, how did they fuck?

I'm not going to link it - you can read the news yourself.
But we *need* people with sociology, anthropology and media degrees - they're the ones to help us think critically about society, the media and ourselves (though I can see why some would not want that to happen).

All famines are man-made, all famines are political. Historians of empire and humanitarianism have known this forever. Gaza is not starving, Gaza is being starved, by Israel, and this starvation is enabled by our government and by every other government that does not step in to force food and aid.

Terrible journalism by the Guardian- so important when the US has a wingnut conspiracy theorist as health czar that journalists promote rigorous scientific research, not sloppy nonsense
I'm reading the report behind these headlines about glyphosate and it may be the most scientifically illiterate thing I've come across (although it's a close thing with the recent MAHA report). 1/n
