THE VIBES ARE OFF

I am on the road but I heard from my husband who is *begging* the government to send in troops to Birmingham. He couldn't get reservations next week for our favorite restaurant, the leaf blowers were once again too loud on our street, and the dept. copier jammed again. It's chaos and bloodshed.

Putting a toddler in charge of a platform means you get tantrums, drama, and crash outs. They need a nap, a snack, and to have the device they never should have been allowed to use taken away permanently.

Imagine you are a 90yo world famous person- the most recognizable living explorer/scientist- and you film your "don't release till I am dead message" for Netflix, and you say "Eff off into a remote planet Donald Trump, Netanyahu/cabinet, and Qi, with Elon Musk as your captain."

Just posting this. Everyone knows why.

Text of the fourth amendment “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

I know Jeanne from UAB and she is not only a brilliant researcher, but is one of the kindest, most generous, ethical, warm humans I've ever met. She is BELOVED on our campus. I wish RFKjr the same fate as the etiquette minister in the Dune prequels (IYKYK).
