Just a heads up to all that follow me. I do mostly post cats and science stuff. But, I haven't been here long I know. FYI I will from time to time call out misinformation, antivax, MAGAts, and bigots.

Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show:
They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.”
Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag…
Made in Nicaragua.
They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee.
Legendary.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.
This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

The probability that asteroid 2024 YR4 might impact Earth in 2032 has risen to 2.8%.
This means that it has surpassed the chance of impact briefly held by the much larger asteroid Apophis back in 2004.
