I think the reporting that trump gave covid testing stuff to putin is not quite emphasizing trump didn’t give that ratfuck twizzler nose sticks, he gave him lab machines US hospitals were begging for to test their clinical staff

So they would have a chance at not dying

one of many reasons I want to see Republicans wiped out in this election is that I want their attacks on trans people to be seen as a total electoral loser

I want the people pushing this shit, including at the Times, humiliated, and I want to see Dems advocating for trans rights as a winning issue

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have developed a vaccine against the bacterium Clostridioides difficile (C.diff), that in preclinical studies, protected against succumbing from infection AND prevented recurring cases. Let’s talk about that! 🧪🧵⬇️

Is anybody else listening to this #Brewers radio call? HOLY COW! The absolute, astonished joy in the broadcast booth when those back-to-back runs happened, oh my goodness. <3 😄

#TeamBlue! In more than one sense - ahem.
#MinCup24 Kyanite forever in a sea of blue, or green or endless beauty. Don't let this gorgeous mineral fall to a fad (still bitter about Perovskite, calcite and quartz). Down with meat rock, up with the sky rock. Vote kyanite!
#MinCup24 R5M1: #Rhodochrosite versus #Kyanite

Rhodochrosite, aka Rosa del Inca & Raspberry Spar is a distinctive pink-to-red carbonate that is a mix of utility and charm. Kyanite, while famous for being blue, can be a wide variety of colours, often zoned & sometimes pleochroic.

Has anyone heard if there are efforts to do something(s) *positive* for the Haitian community, in Springfield or elsewhere, amid all the appalling hatemongering? Please sling credible links at me if so.

The one thing I can do is keep the non profit he and I started, alittleextrafund.org going. Our clinic has become the drop off for animals found (domestic, feral and wild) hurt/lost/whatev. He'd never turn anyone away bc they couldn't pay.

Hi, Link. First time doing this. My kid (24) needs a replacement wheelchair and because they’re only a part-time wheelchair user, insurance won’t cover it. We (parents) are not currently in a financial position to help out. They asked me to boost their GoFundMe and I thought of you.

#MinCup24 R1 M16: #Topaz versus #Spodumene

In a battle of the biggest stones, these minerals are ready to rumble.

Topaz forms some of the largest gemstone crystals in the world, specimens weighing more than a teenager. The largest crystal of Spodumene ever found is the size of a Right Whale.

#MinCup24 R1 M14: #Cacoxenite versus #Charoite

"Bad guest" Cacoxenite returns as a fragile fluffball of translucent orange.
Newbie Charoite is such a striking purple, people once thought it was dyed.

They're both beautiful with unusual shapes, but only one moves on to Round 2!

I still remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news, 23 years ago today. I was in Shakespeare class, early on in junior year.

Oh my gosh! How did I nearly miss #MinCup24?! Voting for #quartz this go round, because it was one of the first minerals tiny Chanter was taught about, via a neighbor with a geological bent. I'm still biased. And #mercury... useful though it is, it makes me nervous.

Owen Wilson, the labradoodle, made a blood donation last week. Today that donation is saving a life.
Please send all the good vibes to this Berner who is fighting for his life right now.
