Oh shit he's not even hiding it. AND he's throwing a dose of homophobia in.

"Everyone stop being so mean to Jeffrey Epstein and all the child molesting priests!" — Bill Donohue, a very holy man, clearly
For too long, the media and the chattering class have said that the Catholic Church clergy abuse scandal was due to “pedophile priests.” Wrong. The data clearly show that the vast majority of priestly victims were male (81 percent) and that 78 percent were postpubescent. Why is this important? Because it means the molesters were homosexuals. When males have sex with males who are postpubsecent, that’s called homosexuality, not pedophilia. But the media ignored the data, thus avoiding the role that homosexual priests played. This allowed them to tag the offenders as “pedophiles.” The fact is only 3.8 percent of clergy sexual abuse victims were boys ten or younger.

I don't know what I might have done to have this rosebush gift me with this lovely rose in the middle of November, but here it is. On the South Shore of Long Island, New York.
A blooming rose, cream colored petals with a hint of pink at the very tips of several of the petals.

Marjorie’s getting a taste of how many of us have been living under the Trump regime for years.

If this is what it takes to break the MAGA mass psychosis, so be it.

Bondi now: “the department will pursue (Democrats) with urgency”

Imagine thinking this DOJ is anything but a tool of the aspiring dictator in the Oval Office

This has gotten surprisingly little attention — it's not even on the front page of @science.org right now — but it's really hard to describe what the SAFE Research Act would do to US science and scientists without sounding insane

☀️ RESEARCH ☀️

Integrated photosynthesis during fluctuating irradiance is correlated with steady-state photosynthesis for rice grown in field environments with elevated CO2 and temperature ☀️🌡️🌾

✍️ Cai et al.

#PlantScience 🧪
Fig. 2 (shortened, full legend in paper): Effects of measurement CO2, growth CO2, measurement temperature, and growth temperature on CCFD-60s, CCFI-600s, Ani, and Anf in the 2023 experiment. Effects of measurement CO2 (the first column), growth CO2 (the second column), measurement temperature (the third column), and growth temperature (the fourth column) on CCFD-60s (A–D), CCFI-600s (E–H), Ani (I–L), and Anf (M–P) during a single-step change in irradiance in the 2023 experiment. CCFD-60s is the cumulative CO2 fixation (CCF) in the first 60 s after the decrease in irradiance; CCFI-600s is the CCF in the first 600 s after the increase in irradiance; Ani is the initial steady-state net photosynthetic rate (An) at Iinc (incident irradiance) of 50 μmol m–2 s–1; and Anf is the final steady-state An at Iinc of 1500 μmol m–2 s–1. Each data point is the mean value ±SE of three replications. Statistical parameters given in the panels are in bold if the lines were fitted for all data.
