I think it is important to emphasize that at no point has anyone suggested a policy or campaign of vengeance against white people. Reparations for past harms is the most radical proposal people can think of, they’re making all of this up in their own minds.
An excerpt from one of my partner’s DM conversations with Trump’s nominee, Jeremy Carl. Jeremy said this in sincerity to his white queer friend: that we should enjoy being discriminated against as queer folk because worse is coming when we are discriminated against as white people. 🤯 Just so wrong.

Wow!
Scientists have found a little RNA molecule – small enough to potentially form spontaneously, yet sophisticated enough to copy itself – that cd explain how life on Earth arose. Thanks @edogia.bsky.social of the @philholliger.bsky.social lab! blog.sciencemuseum.org.uk/in-the-begin...

A tiny self-copying molecule offers the clearest answer yet to the mystery of the origins of biology, reports Science Director Roger Highfield.

I got pretty close on most of these last season. Fascinated to see what happens in 2026.

CNN confirms what MSNBC reported live a few hours ago: DOJ is surveilling Dem lawmakers when they go to the DOJ to search unredacted Epstein files.
CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"
