Very common question I get: “why does 72 air feel comfortable but 72 water feels cold.”
Working on a new answer that’s something like “a box of water a meter on each side of can soak up as much heat as a box of air thats a meter deep, a meter wide…and 3.5 km tall. You wanna talk about why?”

mRNA vaccines are so close to magic as to be basically indistinguishable, and the administration is stopping them because they worship death.

Hey congrats to everyone who took the soft anti-vaccine stance of “mRNA vaccines aren’t 100% effective and aren’t useful against future variants so the mRNA vaccines aren’t good, we need to mask forever”, your stance has been noted by RFK Jr. to kill mRNA technology in America.

mRNA tech is some of the coolest, most powerful, most promising scifi shit humans are currently doing. They are being investigated to help with cancers, autoimmune diseases, M.S., stroke recovery, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, and high cholesterol.
