I know I post many Cornish sunsets that I have filmed, and I hope they don’t feel repetitive. I just feel they can help folks in a small way to feel a moment of calm if you’re struggling and to remind you that there is still a great deal that is beautiful in our world. Rest well, my friends. #calm

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025. This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Trump is back at Mar-a-Fraudo this weekend playing golf games. It costs about $3M to transport a POTUS from DC to South Florida. That's enough money that USAID could feed around 250,000 kids for two weeks.

Transgenic means that genes from 1 organism have been put into another. We make transgenic mice to understand how genes influence biological processes. We make transgenic plants to make them more nutrient rich. We make transgenic bacteria so they make medicine for us. It's wide-ranging & v. useful.

I really want to administer a simple test to everyone yapping about "men" in women's sports. Without searching online, answer these questions: 1. Name one individual reigning NCAA champion in a women's sport or two members of any reigning champion team in a women's sport.
