Defend medical research

Bah, we’re way chiller than than bruh.

Hey Oded! Pretty similar here; I gave up shortly after Tw->X , when the ‘new management’ took over. The algorithm and climate became so bad that it was exhausting to filter out the garbage. At least Bluesky has books, arts and kittens ;-) We do have nice stories on TEI brewing. Let’s connect!

Awesome Ron. Goosebumps. Thanks!

I gave up on fighting with the 3am awake periods. I embrace it. I read stuff for pure pleasure. Irrelevant. Irreverent. Inconsequential. Fun. Printed. Stories. None of that rational, useful content. I usually fall asleep with my book on my chest within an hour, and feel great about it.

In Opinion | Almost every new lifesaving drug starts with government-funded research. But what happens when that funding is cut? In this Opinion video, meet the scientists who are trying to save the lives of you and your family.

Did RFK just take away your cancer treatment? mRNA promised to help turn cancer from a death sentence into a manageable condition.

Did RFK Jr just take away your cancer treatment?

Thank you for this piece on the cornerstone for a major turning point in my province. It illustrates how artists and intellectuals can set major changes into social motion, in a non-violent way. Of course there was a price to pay back then, as there is now, when challenging the establishment…

WASHINGTON (AP) — Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announces he will cancel $500 million in vaccine development projects.

Canada Misses Deadline to Get Shaken Down

Loki, in pre-bed cuddle mode, says « hemlo! ».

She seemed on a mission dismantling the toy though!

You got my attention with all those fine bird books.

“Race does not provide an accurate representation of human biological variation,” the statement reads. “Humans are not divided biologically into distinct continental types or racial genetic clusters. Instead, the Western concept of race must be understood as a classification system that emerged from, and in support of, European colonialism, oppression, and discrimination.” “It thus does not have its roots in biological reality, but in policies of discrimination,” the statement says. “Because of that, over the last five centuries, race has become a social reality that structures societies and how we experience the world. In this regard, race is real, as is racism, and both have real biological consequences.”

Trump's 3/27 executive order targets the Smithsonian for advancing "the view that race is not a biological reality but a social construct."

Trump argues that the exhibit's statement, below, is unscientific. He's wrong. As a biology professor and population geneticist, I agree with every word of it.

Everything in its right place.

Canada’s Prime Minister throughout 2014 was Stephen Harper. Not Trudeau. Harper served from February 6, 2006, until November 4, 2015, leading the Conservative Party.

The guy just can’t get any fact straight.

The planet probably feels the same.

Oh, I’m right there with you, but opted for self medication…

Senator Marsha Blackburn tweets: "We're going to build a big, beautiful Golden Dome."

Am I crazy or did we just have a convo about how we can't fund cancer research?

Same energy.

Really not sure I want any of that ‘golden dome’ thing over my head.

Great book, but don’t get all strung up with its theories. 8-P I have lots of nerd puns like this, if you need more.

Late at the party, but here are cozy vibes from Loki!

A statement.
