I was really hoping #Syria , after the overthrow of that monster #Assad, could avoid the fate of #Iraq and Libya, but it looks increasingly likely 😔 #geopolitics apnews.com/article/syri...

I've been trying to combat the anti-vax movement since Andrew Wakefield basically started it in the late 90s. So depressing to see the prevalence of these anti-science conspiracy theories and bullshit like religious exemptions still happening 25 years later #vaccines #RFK #science #Trump

Re: 250% #tariff "...decades-old Supply Management system to protect Canadian dairy farmers." "also includes import quotas and domestic production constraints to support prices." "...but for anything above these levels, tariffs on specific products can exceed 200%." www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Up here in #Canada, it's pretty hard not to feel somewhat betrayed by our neighbour and friend. We know that most Americans don't support Trump, but the 30-40% that do make me not want to visit the #USA for at least 4 years #tariffs #Trump

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster. Why is SpaceX getting a free pass from DOGE cuts? 🤔

Cuts by #Trump all over the place certainly aren't going to help America's readiness. Is the World Cup yet another thing Mango Mussolini is going to ruin? www.cnn.com/2025/03/06/s...

"The L1527 IRS nebula looks like a cosmic hourglass. Infrared images show a young protostar surrounded by a dark nebula, with ejected matter and dust forming an hourglass shape. The central light is the energy of the newborn star, and the surrounding halo is the light reflected by the gas and dust."
