Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

I’m usually not a fan of lace weight knitting as it takes so freaking long, but I have to admit this is one of my knits I wear the most! It folds up so small that it’s easy to travel with and can be worn in both warm and cold. 🧶 #showmeyourknits #knitting

This is absurd. We built this database to stop officers who commit misconduct at one police agency from being rehired at another. It's about transparency and safety -- it helps the hiring agencies and the public. With due process protections. Trump shut it down

"the extremely strong desire is to just punish universities [..] It’s not based on any kind of coherent policy agenda. It’s just a desire to inflict pain." This, is critical to understand. Pointing out "it's hurting us" won't do, since it's the whole point. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/14/o...

During the last pandemic I learned that my superpower is being really, really good at talking about my areas of expertise, specifically virology & holding morally bankrupt assholes publicly accountable for perpetrating injustice & other bullshit. And unfortunately, duty once again calls. Speak up.

I finally finished The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity by David Graeber and David Wengrow. It was a great read. A book for the layperson that is written by actual experts and it doesn't paint a caricature out of history #BookSky
