This is why it’s awesome to study weird stuff. Who knew lizard spit was the answer to type 2 diabetes & weight loss... @booksstlouis.bsky.social @morgfair.bsky.social @piperformissouri.bsky.social @stltoday.com @2bdynamic.bsky.social @tammykomoff.bsky.social @kanekavi.sheshed.rocks
WOW!! Gila Monster venom contains a compound called exendin-4, a structural analog of human Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 This connection led to development of synthetic GLP-1 like exenatide, used to treat type 2 diabetes. Some newer GLP-1 drugs, like Ozempic, Mounjaro are also being used for weight loss.

Nothing comforts the soul like reading “NNSA employees will continue working without pay to secure the nuclear stockpile and maintain minimum safety conditions.”
Only 7 out of 71 employees at the Los Alamos NNSA field site are working, the rest furloughed.

At the Albuquerque site (overseeing Sandia NM), only 7/81.

"The furloughs are the [NNSA's] first since its creation in 2000, as none occurred during previous shutdowns"

The Global Sumud Flotilla attempted to deliver items such as baby formula, crutches, and medicine to Gaza. On October 1 & 2, 2025, israel intercepted the humanitarian vessels, hijacking aid. Attacking humanitarian aid workers is a war crime. Urgent attention needed now to remove the blockade.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

BDS has been found unconstitutional by Berlin authorities because, according to them, the BDS movement aims for the destruction of Israel.

Germany continuously criminalizing non-violent protest measures makes peaceful protests increasingly impossible.
