We’re going to do this in 2081. They will hide their faces again.
They wheeled this Nazi asshole into court in a wheelchair and he was still trying to hide his face in shame 76 years after World War II ended. That's the kind of commitment I'm looking for.
Ex-Nazi guard, 101, sentenced for role in 3,500 murders
He was sentenced to five years in prison for serving at the Nazis’ Sachsenhausen concentration camp.

Exactly my thought
Fascinating. Also....what if the tiny people are real and all around us and the mushrooms just let us see them.
With most psychedelic drugs, you never know what you're going to get. But this mysterious mushroom from China - without fail - causes users to hallucinate tiny people: crawling up walls, popping out from under furniture and marching under doors. www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Does memory fade slowly, or in drops and bursts? We analyzed 728k tests from 210k people. Key finding: “stability” isn’t a trait you either have or don’t have - it’s often a time-limited state at different points in aging. Preprint "Punctuated Memory Change": 👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

The Americans who let their fear & greed grant them permission to break the American promise were the ones who had given up on America, on liberty, on justice, and on freedom and that if we were given a 2nd chance to do right, we should live & die defending the promise instead. Pick your side. 4/4

I've been here 24 hours, but already with what I've seen, well, I genuinely believe we're going to win. People here are well aware that what happens here impacts the entire country, that it sets the tone for resistance. ICE is angry, ICE is terrified, of how deeply unpopular it is.

Pebbles in my shoes? Why, so I can pop my blisters at the pigs?
This is EVERYWHERE today. Please stop giving people bad advice. If wearing juggalo makeup and putting pebbles in your shoes even worked 10 years ago, they certainly don’t work now
I can't believe I have to say this, but please do not take revolutionary OPSEC advice from YA novels Cory Doctorow wrote almost twenty years ago.

OK, maybe this is just cool, surprising shit, but it also seems like it could redefine a lot abt what we thought we knew abt cells. Like, future HS textbooks will tell a totally different story in this chapter.
The takeaway:
pH inside cells is not uniform, not static, it is spatially patterned and metabolically maintained. Like a scientist’s h-index, that single number far from conveys the underlying scientific richness. 19/n

The entire American political press believes, still, that this plus ICE in the Twin Cities, Greenland crisis, and Venezuela is better than peace and prosperity but Biden is kind of dismissive of them.

Sometime in the next week, Gallego will post abt affordability, and a bunch of ppl on here will scream that it proves Dems are all worthless.
Senator Gallego: "No, and I’ve been very clear. He is a madman. Insane. The man is threatening war against a NATO ally. Let’s accept what’s happening here. He is not rational. He is destroying our world reputation, potentially our economic mighty power around the world because he is being petty”

This is ridiculous and terrible, but I want to especially flag "Samson had long hair," because of course the reason he had long hair was that he had dedicated himself to Jehovah *by taking a vow not to cut his hair*.

Like saying God likes monks despite them being bald.
Reminds me of this really cringy poster that hangs in the entrance of my in-laws' church.

Dr. King did amazing things, but often we only talk about his successes. Dr. King also had some "failures", and they are important to discuss because we often learn a great deal from failure. And failure can inform or grow a movement, like Albany, Georgia's failure did for Dr. King. /1

Zinn's radicalism comes from an oversimplified narrative of the sort that appeals to Bluesky- that history consists of a Political Elite who operate entirely out of theater-hall villain malice, a The People who are braindead sheep, and a Radical Fringe who are omniscient and impotent.
