🧪For anyone interested in EBV in autoimmunity, I strongly urge you to read this incredible study by @shady-myounis.bsky.social, Bill Robinson, and @tobiaslanz.bsky.social. It is not only a scientific tour de force, it has a deeply provocative discussion that everyone in the field should consider 1/

never forgive or forget the science 'activists' (including self-proclaimed "pro-Palestine activists" sometimes appended with claims like "one of the only"...!) who spend inordinate energy sharing zionist propaganda while censoring Palestinians & allies in the backchannels

A nice obituary for Alice, who was going to be recognized as one of The Post 50.

I hate that we now have to live without this phenomenal woman.

Private equity and big tech have monopolized industries, including healthcare, with impunity over the last decade. Democrats have generally stood by and let it happen. By appointing Lina Khan, Mamdani is signalling a new direction for his party. My latest. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

It would sure be nice if more of our species could evolve beyond “needing to literally have a bad thing happen to them personally before they’re capable of even *starting* to grasp that it’s also bad when it happens to other people”
MTG: “.. “I am now being contacted by private security firms with warnings for my safety as a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world. .. The man I supported and helped get elected.”

Respect Alice Wong’s call here:
“When I am in public spaces and see most people unmasked either because they think the virus is a hoax, that masking is virtue signaling & a sign of weakness, aren't thinking about it, or that they simply don’t care, I feel like an expendable burden not worth saving.”

I love the renewed interest in the best parts of being online. Sifting through the smoldering ruins to build a lasting framework for semantic web like optimistic Alexandrian library curators in 48 BC
This is why web 1.0 was so engaging. It was full of people more interested in the subject than good design.

Was it able to get their passion out there- yes, and that was good enough. Can we do that again? Oh yes. I've got a preferred method that I'm happy to run people through if they want.
We're socialized to constantly apologize for being too outwardly excited about things, but this world is so full of terror and misery that I'd rather see those bursts of light and passion shine through the cracks wherever you can find them.

So @jortscity.bsky.social is the plan for p2w to ultimately have Obsidian devs or someone else host an IoT base of bases and information archive?

My thought: what's the point of p2w if the vaults or pages can't talk to each other? How do we find a common void to scream into?

I often think about how the government hounded Aaron Swartz to death for scraping Jstor, yet all these AI companies scraped almost literally all of human knowledge (and continue to do so even when they're told to stop) and have had no criminal consequences.

Sometimes when people ask me why I’m wearing a mask I say I’m traveling or have some important thing soon and can’t afford to get sick and miss it and that’s pretty much always true but I think it would be nice if it were more normalized to just say “I don’t want to get sick” and leave it at that

So Watson kicked the bucket. My work as a CSHL summer course instructor put me in proximity with him. I was there when he lobbed his phony genetic elitism at a white (East European-looking) student. The public stories you’ve probably heard are just the tip of the iceberg. www.npr.org/2025/11/07/n...
