Move over, mitochondria, there’s a new organelle in town! Scientists found a nitroplast (yes, that’s a real word now) in algae that fixes nitrogen like a tiny, overachieving farmhand. It’s only the fourth time evolution pulled this trick, I guess prokaryotes really love upgrading to organelles.

Communist China is better at capitalism than America. Prove me wrong.

Mel Robbins has her 'Let Them' theory... but l've got a 'Fuck Them' theory. And honestly? 'Fuck 'em' hits different. Let them misunderstand you? Nah. *Fuck 'em.* Let them talk shit? *Fuck 'em.* Let them be mad you're living well? *Fuck 'em.* Some just deserve a middle finger and a margarita.

We all thought no politician could tank a country’s finances like Liz Truss. Then Trump said “Hold my beer”…

I still find this funny for some reason

April Fools’ Day posts and American news headlines are basically the same. The only difference? One of them might actually be a joke.

DNA-testing company 23andMe has filed for bankruptcy, which means the future of the company’s vast trove of customer data is unknown. Here's what that means for your genetic data.

In light of recent research revealing that the scars of violence can embed themselves into our very DNA, persisting across generations, the imperative for peace becomes even more profound.

Love seeing travelers claim they go off the beaten path only to post the same Eiffel Tower, Santorini, and Bali swing pics as everyone else. You’re not mysterious. You’re not adventurous. You’re just basic with extra steps.

Ah yes, the noble work of a fashion influencer getting dressed. A true act of courage. Just watched a guy put on pants, a shirt, and a jacket… and somehow, that’s content. Revolutionary.

Eating overly spicy food isn’t a heroic feat, it’s just numbing your taste buds. If you can’t taste the fine nuances of a dish because it’s drowning in heat, that’s not a flex. Enjoy spice, but don’t brag like it’s a superpower.

At 47, I thought, why not get clear aligners? Two weeks in, I swapped to my second tray, and I’d rather: Gauge my eyes out with a rusty spoon Yank my teeth out with pliers-ironic, I know Chew tinfoil for fun Lick a frozen pole Sit through a 3-hour crypto lecture But hey, straight teeth if I survive.

WISDOM WEDNESDAY: Everything you resist, judge, or fear is pointing to your next level. Life isn’t punishing you, it’s stretching you. The things you keep avoiding are the very things holding your breakthrough. What if, instead of running from discomfort, you leaned into it. What is it teaching you?

Very proud moment - my husband published another album! Time to put some headphones and enjoy Valentine Day vibes! 🥰

Hey @AppleMaps, renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America because of a fascist order? Bold move. What’s next—rebranding the Atlantic as ‘Freedom Ocean’? Fix it before we all start navigating with a paper map out of spite.

Americans, how much more do you need to see before taking action? How many warnings, how many repeats of history, how much more damage? At what point does ‘this is bad’ turn into ‘we won’t let this happen’? Because the clock is ticking.

“Why do Americans eat like their healthcare is free?”

One way to fight this mess from the inside instead of just yelling on Bluesky is to join the Republican Party and shape policies before they become disasters. Boo the stupid ideas while they’re still in draft mode. Basically, be the plot twist they never saw coming.

To my American friends: Let’s channel more Luigi energy, embrace the underdog spirit, tackle challenges with quiet determination.

I’d love to see America ignore the noise, collect hard evidence, and legally dismantle every Yatzi move, suing them into oblivion until every single person finally learns from the past. History lessons shouldn’t have to come with a sequel.

Shocking news: In real life, I’m not just a Bluesky shitposter. I’m actually a biomedical scientist working as a global marketing manager. That’s right, my day job involves science and strategy, not just roasting secret sauces and political nonsense.

This week I wrapped up a business trip to Saudi Arabia: ✅ Launched our company in the market ✅ Distributor gathered 50 people ✅ Delivered my presentation ✅ Got applause (always nice) ✅ Ate well ✅ Came back home All that in just 3 days. Efficiency or speedrunning capitalism? You decide.

I’m on Bluesky purely for entertainment purposes. Specifically, to keep Americans amused until their ongoing shitshow wraps up. Think of me as the halftime show in their neverending political circus.

Getting real close to a billion posts

I was cycling today. Second time this year. What’s wrong with me

Stop complaining on here and go change the minds of three voters. Show them what they got wrong. That’s how you fight this. Democracy isn’t won in the quote tweets, it’s won in uncomfortable family dinners and deep sighs at the barbershop. Trust me, it was similar with brexit.

Only an idiot would expect a different result by doing the same thing again. There’s a saying for that… oh right, ‘insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.’ But sure, let’s keep spinning the chaos wheel.

So let me get this straight: you had four years of a presidential trainwreck, decided to give it another go, and now you’re shocked it derailed again? This isn’t just history repeating itself; this is the definition of foolery on a national scale.

I tested DeepSeek vs. ChatGPT with the same prompts, and by the third test, I canceled my ChatGPT subscription. DeepSeek delivered so well, the decision was instant. I’ve got the rest of the month to confirm, but so far, DeepSeek is the clear winner.

Americans got what they voted for. Brits got what they voted for with Brexit. Choices have consequences, and the universe has a funny way of delivering them. No room for pity, no room for hard feelings. Just a cosmic 'told you so' and a front-row seat to the ripple effects.

I guess #rantover

AND let’s be real, every second restaurant has its own 'secret sauce' that’s equally bad and not even a secret. It’s just jalapeño or some other spicy chaos that bulldozes every other flavour. At this point, the only secret is how many people are pretending to enjoy it. #StopTheSecretSauce

And let’s be real, the 'secret' is almost always jalapeños or some other spice that nukes the actual flavors. You could drizzle it over sawdust, and people would still be like, 'Chef’s kiss!' No, I want a sauce that works with the food, not fights it in a flavor cage match.

Can we retire the term 'secret sauce'? I’m tired of ordering food and playing roulette with my taste buds. Is it spicy? Sweet? Radioactive? No, I don’t want your 'secret sauce' ruining my meal. It’s not a mystery, it’s just bad marketing.

Honestly, I’m not even worried one of them will read this. They’re not smart enough to be here. Thinking critically about the world? Nah. Selfishness is their only skill set.

Feeling a bit tired of fighting stupidity, especially when it comes from grown adults at work. Like, how are we still here? And don’t get me started on people still thinking Trump is normal. I can’t keep carrying this mental load.

The whole Inauguration Day drama: I haven’t seen this much excitement over a new job since my cat discovered the empty box I brought home. Here’s hoping the new boss has fewer hairballs.

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute" Historians: "that's a nazi salute" Average person: "that's a nazi salute" The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."

Today’s inauguration feels like déjà vu, reminiscent of the Brexit outcome. The only solace: a presidency lasts 4 years, unlike Brexit’s lasting impact.

With the TikTok ban in America, it’s only a matter of time before the whole world is on VPNs just to access the content they want. Congrats, governments—you’ve just made geo-restrictions the new suggestion box.

My husband published another song! Yay! Folloe Darknato’s Echo on any platform: Youtube, Spotify, Apple Music and many more. You name it, he’s published it there!
