Colossal Bioscience did not revive dire wolves, despite a sensationalist Time Magazine cover story.
Making genetically modified animals that are cosplaying as extinct species is not de-extinction.

Dire wolves were not close relatives of gray wolves. They last shared a common ancestor more than 5 million years ago. What Colossal has done is make something new and slapped a dire wolf sticker on it, as if an organism equals a hypothetical genome.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.
With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

RIP George Foreman. Married five times, he has five sons and seven daughters. All five of his sons are called George Foreman. When asked why, he said "Try getting hit in the head by Muhammad Ali and see how many names you can remember".

I met with General Carignan today, Chief of Defence Staff, about the hard work ahead to make Canada secure.
Together as Canadians, we’re going to meet our 2% NATO spending target by 2030, modernize NORAD, strengthen our Arctic presence, and ensure we build a strong, resilient Canada.

Average, everyday Americans need the tariffs to stop. It’s a tax on the consumer and we all know it. It’s that simple.
