reading a review that cites a review: okay, maybe that citation will include some primary sources
reading the second review that cites more reviews: okay maybe THOSE citations will include some primary literature.
reading the next set of reviews that cite EVEN MORE reviews: i give up

Our grandkids are going to be flabbergasted looking back on this. Is a genocide happening? Yes. Are the people carrying it out murdering aid workers and starving children? Yes. Are they being aided by the US? Yes.

And yet all anyone talks about is the motives and tactics of the people opposing it.

Andrew Cuomo gets publicly humiliated. Bill Clinton learns his endorsement is worth less than dogshit. What a great time to be a hater. A golden age.

Not only did the better candidate (and person!) win, it's extra special to see establishment dems and their endorsements eat shit. Not even my city and I'm over the moon.

What do we see when looking at cells under the microscope? 👉Some are bigger than others, some are elongated and align with the neighbors & others seem to move. Cool, right? But wouldn't it be cooler to quantify these observations?
