Every single stupid conversation I’ve had with a scientist about anticipatory obedience and historical comparisons over the last week has had me thinking about how scientists’ political incompetence is one of the major arguments for a liberal arts education
Like you’re literally a tool without it

A bunch of needs in labcoats:
"If we comply with the fascists demands they'll surely let us keep up our research"
Those same scientists months or years before:
"Eh, I'll skip history class. I wanna be a scientists. Not a historian lol"

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State.
H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Good Morning Yall let’s show love to Granville T. Woods, the inventor of the third rail which allowed electricity to power trains and he also invented the first roller coaster powered by electricity. His work with electricity was so amazing Thomas Edison tried and failed to steal his patents twice.

one of key functions of immigration raids & crackdowns is not to actually deport all migrants/refugees but to deepen conditions of social precarity & labor deportability. to make migrants more vulnerable to exploitation from bosses & landlords & banks, and to create scapegoats for austerity policies

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's *adolescent* energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

If you played an instrument back in high school and stopped: we are in a golden age of decent cheap instruments.
The guitars are better, the amps are better. The pedals are cheaper, the wind instruments are actually instruments and not just shaped like them, etc.
Jump back into it.
