Harrison, whose plasma contained a rare antibody, rolled up his sleeve 1,173 times from 1954 to 2018. The Australian is credited with helping 2.4 million babies and advancing scientific research.

On a different note than earlier: Saw this somewhere today and can't place where, & decided to do a frog for it because it made me chuckle. Annual reminder (starting now). #art #frog #digital #digitalart #emo #scene #itwasneveraphasemom #throwback #3oh!3 #march3rd #donttrustme #nevertrustahoe #🐸 #🖤

In spite of all the chaos, it's still Wolf Wednesday

This is great, get moving people #resist

Hard facts

#TheOutpost Herbs that heal

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

MARCH 4TH: ORGANIZE & MOBILIZE! • Protest on March 4th, or if/when you are able to—let your voice be heard. • Find resources, local actions, and more: FiftyFifty.one. This is our country. This is our fight. This is The People’s Movement. @polrev.bsky.social #50501Movement #FiftyFiftyOne

. Gov. Hochul just stood up to Trump’s overreach Democratic leaders, it’s time to follow her lead. Our base demands action against these authoritarian moves. Stand firm, uphold our values, & show 🇺🇸 what true leadership looks like. RT if you expect your representatives to defend democracy!

If you think there’s nothing better than ice cream, you’ve never had a cop turn on his lights behind you and then pull over someone else.

Wherever possible please buy your books directly from authors and/or publishers. Even ebooks (then Amazon can't delete them either). We make a better cut and you get the same thing or better, plus Bezos and ilk don't get richer. Win win win.

Goodnight beds, goodnight feds, Time to rest your tired heads Goodnight shoes, goodnight blues, Take a break from following the news Goodnight fears, goodnight tears, AltCDC will still be here Rest well everyone, we'll see you tomorrow!

I don’t understand “resigning in protest.” We need people in these positions right now, more than ever, who will fight back. Who do you think they’re going to be replaced with?

Well that didn’t take long

Ok, last one for today. Always fun #BlueSkyArtShow #Monochrome #Green #Photography

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

The 50501 Movement has planned protests at all 50 state capitols and the U.S. Capitol on Presidents’ Day at noon. While mainstream media isn’t covering it, many YouTubers have stepped up to provide coverage.

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

We are nearing a precipice.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Note: In 2024 alone, Musk’s enterprises were awarded approximately $3 billion across nearly 100 federal contracts, averaging about $8 million per day.

This is Wesley. He wants to know if you will accept this rose. Because he grabbed it thinking it was a stick, and now doesn't want it anymore. 12/10

KIDS REPEAT WHAT THEY HEAR 👇👂 youtu.be/k0Y3VoZG3Y8?...

High-income earners historically contributed at higher rates until tax reforms under the Reagan administration lowered the top marginal rate from 72% to 28%, necessitating increased taxation of Social Security benefits to compensate for the revenue shortfall.

The sky is falling, the wind is calling Stand for something, or die in the morning Kendrick Lamar

Needed this so much right now. I just called out the fact that Kendrick Lamar carried that red, white, and blue theme through. He owned it! My fam knew what that meant. THEY don’t want us here, but they do not own the flag. “Not Like Us”

Appropriately, the city representing the birthplace of democracy is victorious. 🦅🦅🦅💚💚💚🏆🏆🏆. #philadelphiaeagles #gobirds

“The revolution bout to be televised… you picked the right time but the wrong guy… “ This. This is how it’s done. Kendrick Lamar took back the Red White and Blue for the right side of history. #superbowl #nfl #endracism #resist youtu.be/KDorKy-13ak?...

An American flag built on the backs of Black people... Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways All this in New Orleans... What a moment

Congrats Eagles fans! Job well done and victory well earned. For the record, I did not watch, I listened on radio. I hope others did the same. #endracism #nfl #Superbowl

I'm Blake Gendebien, the dairy farmer running to replace Elise Stefanik in #NY21 This election will be tough, but I'm ready to roll up my sleeves and get the job done. Will you? ✅Follow me ✅Share this post ✅Ask your friends to follow ✅Chip in if you can

Elon Musk spent $40 million in Super Bowl ads to attack USAID. Tell Congress that for pennies on the dollar, foreign aid is a deal we can’t afford to lose. Call your members of Congress and demand action. Here’s the number to call: (202)224-3121 Please pass it on. Save Foreign Aid.

🚨🚨🚨 NY 21 Special Election Information: Blake Gendebien is the Dem candidate running for the NY21 Congressional seat to replace Elise Stefanik. This is a solidly red area, but with education, unity and hard work anything is possible. Pls share and consider donating. blakegendebienforcongress.com

Do I have this right? Elon Musk - the guy in charge of preventing wasteful spending - dropped $40M on a Super Bowl ad? We could permanently house 800 homeless veterans for $40M. Or provide five million meals to the hungry. Or replace lead pipes in 8,500 homes.

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.

How to be a critical thinker: 1. Be 10% more skeptical of people you agree with—and 10% more charitable to those you disagree with 2. Find flaws in ideas you like—and strengths in views you dislike 3. Discount sources that peddle one narrative—and learn from those that explore competing ideas

I read this on dark days for a little solace.

Show the NFL you’re paying attention. Don’t watch the Super Bowl—make the ratings tank. Instead, listen on the radio. Money talks, and so do numbers. Stand against those who bend the knee to fascism. Tune out, speak up, and hit them where it counts. #BoycottNFL #TurnItOff #ListenDontWatch

Call to action: US national protest on Monday February 17 at your State Capitol or White House. Spread far and wide. End Impunity End Oligarchy End Autogenocide #3E #USprotests #eyesontheoval
