When it comes to boycotting, just a thought. It’s okay if you can’t quit a company cold turkey. In Master Gardeners, when we encourage people to switch to native plants, the goal is 70% native, not 100%. If you were shopping at a store 80% of the time and cut it back to 60%, that 20% still hurts.

As a young man I realized that exercising your mind is far more important than exercising your body. Powerful ideas are more powerful than any muscle. But then I saw Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee and was like "fuck that nerd shit I want to be able to punch someone so hard they go through a wall."

Unbelievable news. Pancreatic is one of the deadliest cancers. New paper shows personalized mRNA vaccines can induce durable T cells that attack pancreatic cancer, with 75% of patients cancer free at three years—far, far better than standard of care. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It used to be flavored like whiskey and potatoes before we got in trouble after someone bootlegged it at our U.S franchise location. It caused a schoolbus full of children to get into a drunken riot and brutally stab Andy Jones, a 42 year old man who wore a grimace suit, to death for the promotion.

If you're wondering how the back end of academia works, my promotion application has been approved by my department committee, signed off by my department head, approved by the college committee, signed off by the dean, and is now on its way up to the provost. This was started first week in August.

Trump has inadvertently achieved something truly spectacular in Canada. His anti-Canada obsession has caused a rapid resurrection in support for the Liberal Party - against the fortunes of his much favoured Conservatives, which had been on track to storm this year's election until his intervention.
