Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine. If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

I’ve just seen this report, but I asked myself yesterday evening how long it would be before Israel bombed the first hospital. “The most moral army in the world”. Sure.

Who could possibly have predicted that the election of a bunch of low-intellect bigots with zero experience of public service would lead to massive problems?

Today marks nine years since Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right extremist, a terrible loss to those who knew and loved her and to politics. Zero lessons were learned though and the far-right continues to be pandered to. With more political assassinations in the US it all feels too familiar.

Agreed. Israel has broken international law and we should not provide support for their reckless, murderous actions.

Fairly straightforward today, but I was left with a collection of letters I couldn’t form into any word I knew. I got it by trial and error, so I’ve at least increased my vocabulary today, though I still don’t understand how it fits the theme. Strands #469 “Here's to him!” 🟡🔵🔵🔵 🔵🔵

From some of the posts I’ve seen this morning, it seems that the “PERADE” didn’t go too well. Shame. On this side of the Atlantic an actual King (not that I approve of such things) had a very successful parade in glorious weather. Funny how the universe sends us messages from time to time, innit?

It’s said that only the good die young. So expect Trump to be around for another century or two.
