My father died of pancreatic cancer so I took all those advances extremely personally — wishing nothing but the worst for the petty, grift-minded ghouls who are gutting mRNA advancement.

RESULT: Democrats have defended a state Senate seat in Rhode Island by a margin of 82% to 16%. So that's a victory by 66 percentage points.

Harris had carried this district by 11 percentage points in November. This is the 2nd biggest overperformance for Democrats so far this year.

A watercolor painting of an Aldabra giant tortoise, detailed in soft browns and grays, walking with its neck extended, sketched on hot press paper.

Painted this Aldabra giant tortoise slowly with a limited palette and a lot of coffee (literally). These gentle giants can live over 150 years. That kind of long, steady survival feels like a small miracle lately. #sciart #addherper #watercolor

Pen drawing with the main element being a serpentine figure with vaguely feminine human features and a spiral shell like structure on the head, leaning from the right with large black eyes and a body covered with various bony growths like armor down it's back, kneeling on an uneven stone floor.
