The truth is my light. Better living through science. Book-a-holic. Politics, nature, medicine, history ... the world is a fascinating place.

Just a thought. Stock up on N95 (or better) masks before bird flu goes human to human. When it does, you won't be able to get an N95 mask anywhere, at any price.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

The people in Arizona’s 7th congressional district have been without representation in Congress for over 7 months.
Mike Johnson continues to deny them representation because their duly elected representative has pledged to sign the petition to release the Epstein files.

With every new variant
with every new wave
there are warnings
of which new symptoms
you need to watch for,
and yet
with every new variant
with every new wave
the main symptom
you need to watch for
is everyone around you
insisting that they
just have a weird cold.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

Good Sunday morning, friends. Take some time today to enjoy nature and each other. We lost a beautiful soul this week. I cherish Jane Goodall and will always remember all of the wonderful work she did, a true labor of love. Love is “what the world needs now.” ♥️

Our Solar System has millions of wandering asteroids and comets that are small, far away, and usually dark. Rubin Observatory excels at detecting faint objects, and it’ll find 10-100 times more Solar System objects than were known before! 🔭🧪
