Don’t quit your hobbies even if you never make any money with them. The joy you get from writing songs because they’re inside you is worth experiencing even if you never get onstage.

Trump, Egad “Ketamine” Dusk and their maggot ilk do not want educated people, they do not want early career scientists to get ahead, they do not want questioning minds. This is perhaps only the beginning. We’ll see.

I had wondered why the example Meta used of speech that would now be allowed on Facebook was specifically “calling lgbt people mentally ill.” Today I got it: it was so the White House could refer to its anti-trans campaign as “restoring sanity”

prior to COVID it was normal for the staff of infusion rooms to mask, since so many infusion patients are being treated for cancer or are post-transplant
and we’re all immunocompromised or we wouldn’t be there
now they never mask

Prior to Covid it was normal to mask in the NICU. People understood that premature babies are as vulnerable as they come and need to protected.
Now? Gowns & gloves but no masking.
The damage caused by anti mask rhetoric will be felt for years (possibly decades) to come.

There is so much fleeting beauty to the world of mountains, lasting seconds before it's gone forever. Far above, barely visible, the peak of Paine Grande in Torres del Paine is transformed into a moment of utter beauty!
