Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

There was never going to be a world where MAGA allowed a free and fair election ever again, unless forced to do so
We need to grapple with this. If the upcoming election is not (or is not expected to be) free or fair, then it immediately becomes irrelevant.
In other words, if an election is demonstrated to be unfree or unfair, then it's no longer an effective tool of political change, thus a waste of resources.

2026 midterms will be “free but not fair,” warns @garrykasparov.bsky.social. “Look at their actions,” he warns. “They're not afraid of losing power because they don’t intend on losing power.” His advice for Democrats: Be more aggressive. #Velshi

This was such a societal mistake, and there's a reason I have never even come close to engaging with sports betting content. It's going to ruin a lot of lives.
% of US men under 30 who say legal sports betting is a *bad thing* for society
22% in 2022
47% in 2025
No other demographic group has seen a bigger increase.

The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
