what stood out to me in a frightening way was not the expected inclusion of words having to do with culture, race, sexuality, social justice, environment but words/phrases that are specific to scientific thinking and logic...

Here is the fairly current Reddit discussion I found on the issue www.reddit.com/r/labrats/co... where someone posted a link to a concerning article that feels too depressing to do more than skim as the possible horror is just too damned depressing to think about

My friend informed me of the very real danger now to the National Archives (via Facebook but you can read without an account)

Someone convince me Mordor and its allies have not won, that they don't possess the Ring of Power. Right now I am feeling viscerally ill from the Rump/Elon Reich terrorism since Jan20

No matter how bleak my life in my 63 yrs, I stubbornly held #hope guarded as a treasure within my soul. My soul has now been ripped apart and hope has vanished. I don't know the words to call (her) back in and then the knowledge to sew the pieces of my soul back together.

"Hope" by George Frederic Watts, 1886, located within the Tate Museum. Wikipedia link with more details on the painting and image: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hope_%28Watts%29 "...a lone blindfolded female figure sitting on a globe, playing a lyre that has only a single string remaining. The background is almost blank, its only visible feature a single star." "She sits on a small, imperfect orange globe with wisps of cloud around its circumference, against an almost blank mottled blue background.[21][25] The figure is illuminated faintly from behind, as if by starlight, and also directly from the front as if the observer is the source of light." "The figure of Hope holds a broken lyre, based on an ancient Athenian wood and tortoiseshell lyre then on display in the British Museum.[29][F] Although broken musical instruments were a frequently occurring motif in European art, they had never previously been associated with Hope.[29][G] Hope's lyre has only a single string remaining, on which she attempts to play.[31][H] She strains to listen to the sound of the single unbroken string, symbolising both persistence and fragility, and the closeness of hope and despair." "Above the central figure shines a single small star at the very top of the picture, serving as a symbol of further hope beyond that of the central figure herself.[33] The distance of the star from the central figure, and the fact that it is outside her field of vision even were she not blindfolded, suggests an ambiguity. It provides an uplifting message to the viewer that things are not as bad for the central character as she believes, and introduces a further element of pathos in that she is unaware of hope existing elsewhere."

3) Here is a screen shot showing an image search for Trump (as i call him: Rump--but that doesn't search engine well):

I have been having some misses lately though which could be from my using a Chrome extension on MS Edge but still works enough for pleasant relief.
Images of Trump being replaced by images of kittens as seen in a Google image search, thanks to browser extension "Make America Kittens Again."

2) Kitten Block blocks urls to Daily Mail and Daily Express websites, redirecting to a page with a random kitten photo that looks like:
