Twitter aka X has become unusable in recent days. The entire algorithm is pushing far-right extremists into the feeds, people fetishising mob law, glorifying nazi propaganda, and a level of hate that's unprecedented.
I'm truly glad there are alternatives out there, including Threads and Bluesky.

You can now screen embryos for >900 diseases and traits including cancer, heart disease, and alzheimer’s, before they’re even born.
Makes me wonder about legal consequences if you purposefully choose a new human life to have a disease or short life span.

I was today years old when I learned that the Jesus resurrection story is nowhere to be found in the original scripts? It's just people some centuries later making it up??
And most gospels agreed he just died?
Christian mythology is so fascinating, yet so confusing.

Friedrich Merz is the first leader of a parliamentary majority who didn’t become Chancellor after failing to reach the necessary majority of 316 votes today.

Back in school I used to learn different countries deal with the risk of the downfall of democracy in different ways, and the USA use their checks and balances to have the Supreme Court stop the US president if necessary.
Turns out the US president can just ignore courts now?
