I can tell you with 100% certainty that I will never do a pull up in an airport. And I don't want to sit next to someone who has.

Solid advice: If you see a masked man with a gun grabbing someone, call the cops. Unless, you know, it's the cops doing the grabbing...
O'Hara: "There's folks that are masked, they may be kidnapping people. We have had those reports. The community should know that if you see something like that, you should call 911. Let's not forget -- we very recently had tragedy in this state by someone who was purporting to be law enforcement."

I hadn’t seen this 2019 video of @stephencolbert.bsky.social singing with Oscar the Grouch until today, and man oh man, was it just the hopeful reminder I needed. 💞

"This narrative of human suffering, set in 2025, is filled with tears and resilience. It is a story of women. It is our story. It could very well be your story too."

Here’s Elon cutting pediatric brain cancer research 👇🏻
This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH
