When no influence is strong enough to unify people, they divide. They create chaos and nurture it. Until they are exhausted and destroyed or until one of them becomes a leader most will follow, or a tyrant most fear. - Octavia Butler

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

have someone to blame is strong in the US. It’s a way to sow discontent and confusion, a way to make vaccines sound dangerous. Kennedy and his followers are liars; do not believe anything they say.

It’s hard to believe that one man can cause so much stress, so much fear, so much pain and suffering…a man who took an oath to preserve and protect our Constitution. This man, who is inciting terror across our land, must be removed from office. In a sane world, it would happen immediately.

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

A great example of how the @nytimes.com centers white Americans and Trump supporters in its anecdotal political coverage. You never see stories like this about Black Democrats whose cities are cracked in Republican gerrymandering to give them Republican elected officials.
They Wanted a Conservative State. They Might Get a Democratic Representative Instead.
The passage of Proposition 50, which redrew California’s congressional map, means that all of the state’s conservative north is likely to be represented by Democrats.

Spamalot’s Producer ran the entire Kennedy Center for many years and of course immediately resigned when the idiots arrived. The booking however was already made. He may enjoy them having to suck it up when Lancelot comes out. It’s somewhere else next week.
I know you're not the one booking the shows but at least one scheduled performer is canceling her dates as of this week and more are considering the same. Hamilton backed out months ago. Just made me wonder if Spamalot's producers were having those conversations.

I teach HS science and there is literally NOTHING that AI can do that will improve my job.
I mean, sure, I can have AI write powerpoints and emails to parents. But they will be garbage.
Actual labs and lessons need to be field-tested and refined. It is an iterative process.
