OK, this is wild.
In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.
It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.
What the HELL?

@scalzi.com just starting Kaiju Preservation Society. So did something come through at Maralinga and we just didn't notice because: Australia; or did you not know about the testing there?

Somehow, the future is both going to be a dystopian techno sci-fi hellscape AND we're gonna have coal and measles and robber barons and a permanent underclass.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory and UConn Health have successfully discovered a molecular switch that can actually SHUT DOWN cancer growth signals and STOP tumor growth at the RNA LEVEL. The discovery could pave the way for a groundbreaking RNA-based multi-cancer treatment. 🧪🧵⬇️

Dutton today on Jews in Australia: "I’ve never seen an element of society ostracised in such a way"
Yeah, that's why they have a much lower life expectancy, earn 25% less than everyone else, and are 17 times more likely to be incarcerated...
Oh wait, no that's another group.. can't think who.
