The final page of Ozzy Osbourne’s autobiography, “I Am Ozzy”:
If I don't live a day longer, I'll have had more than my fair share. The only thing I ask is that if I end up brain-dead in a hospital somewhere, just pull the plug, please. But I doubt it'll get to that. Knowing me, I'll go out in some stupid way. I'll trip on the doorstep and break my neck. Or I'll choke on a throat lozenge. Or a bird will shit on me and give me some weird virus from another planet. Look what happened with the quad bike: I'd been taking lethal combinations of booze and drugs for decades but it was riding over a pothole in my back garden at two miles an hour that nearly killed me. Don't get me wrong: I don't worry about that kind of heavy-duty stuff on a daily basis. I've come to believe that everything in life is worked out in advance. So whenever bad shit happens, there ain't nothing you can do about it. You've just gotta ride it out. And eventually death will come, like it comes to everyone. I've said to Sharon: 'Don't cremate me, whatever you do? I want to be put in the ground, in a nice garden somewhere, with a tree planted over my head. A crabapple tree, preferably, so the kids can make wine out of me and get pissed out of their heads. As for what they'll put on my headstone, I ain't under any illusions. If I close my eyes, I can already see it: Ozzy Osbourne, born 1948. Died, whenever. He bit the head off a bat.

I'm a climate scientist. I'm considering quitting my job to go....I dunno...plant trees or something? No one listens to us. No one cares. There's got to be something I can do that's more helpful than screaming into the void

The increasing number of extreme climate events – floods, wildfires, hurricanes, etc – has NOT raised awareness of the threat posed by climate collapse. Instead, people change their idea of normal: the “boiling frog effect”.

But “before and after” data can help.

‘Boiling frog’ effect makes people oblivious to threat of climate crisis, shows study
Research shows people’s response to binary data could drive more effective ways of communicating gravity of crisis

One result I'm not seeing get a lot of attention: Aaron Gunn won. The guy who front-the most extreme parts of Poilievre's social and public safety agenda (he directed the "doc" Vancouver is Dying) will be heading to Ottawa.

i think people are missing the forest for the trees with this one. RFK Jr wants complete centralized knowledge of every American's health in order to exact control on what medications are allowed and in order to fabricate "evidence" for each and all of his nonsense theories.

Gun registry? No. Autism registry? Yes?

Fuck ALL the way off.
The NIH is also now in talks with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to broaden agreements governing access to their data, Bhattacharya said. In addition, a new disease registry is being launched to track Americans with autism, which will be integrated into the data. Between 10 and 20 outside groups of researchers will be given grant funding and access to the records to produce Kennedy's autism studies. Bhattacharya did not give details on how they would be chosen, but said their selection would be "run through normal NIH processes."

Put aside the lies and the open defiance of the Supreme Court, as well as the cruelty, and ask yourself: who talks like this? This is the *official* account of the *White House* - is it being run by a six year old?
