Love connecting on sports, history, technology, psychology, and social causes. Learning Swahili? Let’s practice together. But save the drama for yo mama 😉

"Whoever mocks the poor shows contempt for their Maker; whoever gloats over disaster will not go unpunished." Proverbs 17:5

"Acquitting the guilty and condemning the innocent— the LORD detests them both." Proverbs 17:15

Some who claim to follow Jesus don't read the Bible-they ignore these words.

“Home-growns”mean any of us. And with no guarantee of due process and administrative incompetence, this could be life sentences in El Salvador for any of us.
Trump to Bukele: "Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It's not big enough."

Be sure you (and those you love) are up to date on immunizations.

Our littlest patients aren’t eligible and are most likely to die from these diseases.

Please help protect those babies.
A note to your followers: all adults should get a TDaP (tetenus, diphtheria, pertussis) booster every 10 years. And everyone who isn't sure that they had measles or a full series of the modern (post-1980) MMR should get an MMR shot.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data
A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

An important point getting overlooked:

When NIH cancels "diversity" grants (e.g., diversity supplements, Fs, Ks, etc), they aren't canceling the grants based on *what* the grant studies.

They're cancelling them based on *who* is doing the research. And that disallowed "who" is anyone not white.

This is astonishing!

We know this already but this shocking breach of national security clearly demonstrates how the USA gov is just being run by a bunch of out and out Amateurs.

It’s so shocking to me if it turned out not to be true I would be relieved but it does appear to be real!
