James Watson, who elucidated the structure of DNA with Francis Crick only with the help of stolen data, is dead. It really is a pity that he ruined his questionable legacy with vile racist and misogynist views. Good riddance.

Just heard the news about Jane Goodall. Amazing person, amazing scientist. She was a pioneer working with and researching chimpanzees in their native habitat. RIP. 🐒

Somewhat ticked that I can’t watch the US Open unless I fork $30 over to ESPN. Following the live women’s semis scores with a search engine. Congrats to Anisimova for making two GS Finals in a row! I hope she gives Sabalenka the business Saturday. 🎾

Everyone: And you're probably mad they showed you mercilessly executing every puppy you came across, right?

Kristi Noem is a power-hungry fascist who will say and do anything to forward this pathetic administration’s horrific and cruel agenda. What else should we expect from a sociopathic puppy murderer? She is loathsome.

First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors.
This ain’t about law and order.
This is what authoritarianism looks like.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.
He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.
It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.
