this, friends, is what we refer to as total fucking bullshit. i bitch about fire training being low quality garbage all the time, but to be clear- these types of trainings are absolutely crucial. they are desperately needed, and this is highly time sensitive. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

It doesn't have to be special to be special. Or, like Scout said of Piper's enthusiastically-dug holes, of which many a video would get posted: each one is special. I mean, just look at her dig. Everything is clear.

Hannah Anderson worked for the far-right, fascist AFPI group, which are Russell Vought's allies. AFPI has prayer vigils for Trump in-house.

She wants to damage NIH and HHS. This group hates real science and wants to kill NIH grants to harm universities.

This is who is directing NIH.

Look what happens when a species that doesn't belong at the top of the food chain, and has no idea how to wield power properly, ends up on top, and then immediately is so blitzed on power that the most they can accomplish is vomiting on the proverbial couch after having set the place on fire. Huh.
