it’s a public health liability for the whole international community that so much biomedical research is US-based, episode 7393

You ever think about how amazing and beautiful and wonderful the Earth is but how so many people treat the planet like shit.

Hey, I'm Alaa from Ga** and this is a story about my suffering. We are not scammers, spammers, or fraud . We are simply who we are living through gen@cide, starvation, oppression, and humiliation. I hope u all repost or quote it. This thread describes our story: 🔗 tinyurl.com/yc6hh8sa

Wow, people politicize everything, even the world's richest man, himself a corrupt saboteur of the public good, helping install a corrupt fascist hate goblin as president, then using that purchased influence to utterly demolish the public good while exposing himself as an open Nazi. What next.

A student said to me at an event today, ‘I’d love to speak out and say stuff but I can’t because I’m on a visa.’ What has happened to America? Trump and Rubio and MAGA have killed free speech and the First Amendment in this country.

"Scientific insiders." You mean...scientists? The people who do science and understand it? I'm not saying they're beyond suspicion, but when I look at the US over the past 20 years, I do not have the impression that our major problem is that _scientists_ have too much power.

I hate to frame it so selfishly, but no one seems to be articulating the full stakes. Gaza is a test run for the oligarchs who own the military industrial complex. They're seeing just how brutally they can get away with treating a population in broad daylight. They're not just going to stop at Gaza.

If you liked TRUE BIZ, you'll love texting the governor of NJ and telling him to fund the state deaf school! ✨🌟📚🌈

That's why Israel is letting a few aid trucks into Gaza: as bait for their prey. What they've let in is not even a third of one day's need.

For those just catching up: Gaza and the West Bank already fell into the historic definition of concentration camps These are death camps with the express purpose of ethnic cleansing and extermination

please, please remember as you rightfully scream at JK Rowling and protest her and her world and boycott HP and do all those very good things, that none of this is these kids' fault. They aren't 80 year old John Lithgow, they are little kids with underdeveloped nuance who got a job to play wizards

the GOP budget bill strips trans healthcare from hundreds of thousands of trans people (& allows that care for cis people). contact your senator; tell them to kill that part of the bill! did you know utah’s GOP produced a great case for *preserving* that care? clear & quick summary in the link!🧵

Resolution Copper is blocking comments and hiding replies from anyone calling out what they’re doing at Oak Flat. They’re trying to mine on sacred Native American land, with the government’s help, and don’t want the public to push back.

The man on the left wrote in the New England Journal of Medicine *last week* that pregnancy is a one of the medical conditions that increases the risk of severe covid and thereby warrants vaccination. Covid infection is linked to miscarriages. MAHA is a cult. www.statnews.com/2025/05/27/c...

It is absolutely a threat to real art. I have friends who are real artists, who are in the illustration business, who are losing work to genAI. The point of technofascist capture of the arts is to lower the expectations of audiences/consumers so they'll accept degraded, automated 'content'.

Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live. If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.

“Why did burning girls matter in Vietnam but not in Gaza?” The 'Napalm Girl' photo shocked the world and helped end the Vietnam War, writes @jehadabusalim.bsky.social for Zeteo, but a child surrounded by flames and other similar images in Gaza can't even provoke a ceasefire. Read/share/subscribe:

Ten years ago nobody in their right mind gave a single crap where trans people went to the toilet and the only reason anyone does now is because they were radicalised by Facebook and a handful of insane newspaper columnists and that’s just embarrassing all round

For nothing. FOR NOTHING. For fucking nothing! I'm having problems with everything that's happening but the bit that lays large eggs in my brain is that this is all happening for no reason other than rich white people got sad the world isn't 100% about them anymore.

Buy the treat.

Her stats line up with CDC data…

Good lord. Everyone go to your local No Kings rally instead.

it does feel like many of you may have forgotten that all politicians are motherfuckers

We apologize for posting today we’ve been keeping things to a minimum. However, a situation is unfolding and we need one communication: Please follow the guidance coming from inside the house.

Like 3 days ago the CEO of DuoLingo said everything will be AI soon, now he's backpedaling, bullying works

If your business model doesn’t work without breaking the law, then you’re not in business. You’re in organized crime.

It's not artificial intelligence. It's counterfeit intelligence. Label it correctly.

Trump's America.

Roxanne Gay was ousted for pretty flimsy plagiarism accusations. Meanwhile, a bunch of white techbros plagiarize with algorithms, call it an "industry," and rake in enough speculative money to buy and sell us all.

in today's America with men with orange tans preaching eugenics and genocide as a "cure"... I want you to know that if you believe you have autism spectrum disorder, the studies suggest, you're likely to be correct If you say you're capital A-Autistic, I believe you and Dx criteria doesn't matter

Of course, the smart thing for MAGA is to simply disavow the Patriot Front morons and say they have nothing to do with their movement and don’t represent them. But no. MAGA being MAGA, they instead claim that Patriot Front is a FBI operation. While they control the FBI.

Why is being trans and wanting to go to the loo in peace seen as an ideology but stopping trans people from using the loos in peace is never seen as an ideology 🤔

BREAKING: An Israeli airstrike on a school-turned-shelter has killed at least 25 Palestinians, mostly women and children, Gaza's Health Ministry said. The school was hit three times while people slept, setting their belongings ablaze, they added.

No, say it louder. It's absolute bullshit how Across the Spider-Verse made over $300 million in profit, yet neither Marvel nor Sony could be bothered to defray the hospital bills of the man who co-created Miguel O'Hara. Instead they left his wife and family scrambling to afford to live.

A funny thing about white genocide is that it implies that normally white people don’t get genocided, they are more likely to do the genociding.

This is LITERALLY how the American labor movement fell apart. The south used to be a union STRONGHOLD until segregationists pointed at Black people and said “you really want Negros making the same as you?” Racism is a CORE BELIEF that other races DESERVE their lot in life

WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT is unironically one of the best popular narratives about the way privatization of public services destroys local community

NPR visits a hospital in eastern Ukraine's Donetsk region, in a town where many residents have fled but some young couples are holding on and hoping to raise their children one day in peace.

This isn’t about ensuring history is “based on facts.” It’s about making sure history aligns with this administration’s narrative. The Trump administration has ordered every national park to post signs encouraging visitors to report anything
