Pro tip for STEM undergrads:
If you are doing a makeup lab, please come prepared having a general understanding of what you’re doing that day.
Chemistry lab can be very harmful if you don’t know what you’re doing.
And yes, the lab takes MUCH longer when you aren’t readily prepared.

Wasn’t expecting the Epstein scandal to blow up the New York Times but sure, why not
To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015
What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

My read:
* white women Trump voters think the gains they'll get from white supremacy will outweigh their losses from his male supremacist policies
* men of color who vote for Trump think the gains they'll get from male supremacy will outweigh their losses from his racism
Both groups are wrong.

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”
Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

TAX THE F*CKIN CHURCHES
If they are going to use societal services that taxpayers provide and ignore their own mission for public service, then they should not be allowed to have a tax-free status.
Churches should have a limit on income and provide evidence of public service TO ALL to be tax free.

Tax the fkn churches. The vast majority are businesses that produce nothing and provide nothing to communities, they are not charitable organizations............as they keep making very clear through their own actions.

It’s Tuesday. There are 357 days until the midterm elections. Trump tells struggling Americans they’re full of it, the White House celebrates the Dem surrender and Ghislaine wants out.

You see… Charlotte here seems to think that abuse in families doesn’t exist.
When you look at statistics of trans people and the excruciatingly high number of them being in danger of self harm…all bc their families do not accept nor support them…but in fact, abuse them…
It shows blatant ignorance

Do you not think it's bizarre to have strangers on the internet decide they know better than Brianna's own loved ones on what is or isn't insulting to her memory?
I've got no time for Rosie Duffield, but she turned up at a drop-in event in Parliament and that's been the limit of her involvement.

I guess I need to add that pundits have to get out of a normal democracy mindset too.
It’s been a decade of democratic backsliding, and nearly a year of rapid descent. Writing as if it’s 2013 or 1995 is out of touch. Either ”I have my head in the sand” or “I like this but won’t say so directly.”
