Well, OK, it is a LOT wonky (LOL), but pretty amazing none-theless. I am running behind so chose not to explain it a length, but just put it out there.

Anne Fausto-Sterling (@annefaustosterling) This article is a little wonky but is technically amazing as it combines knowing how the central nervous system develops in the embryo with materials science—the use of soft bioelectronics. The method...

Judge issues blistering opinion against Trump policy to deport pro-Palestinian students Judge rules non-citizens have the same free speech rights as US citizens under the first amendment

“This trial exposed their true aim: to intimidate and silence anyone who dares oppose them,” he added. “If we fail to fight back, Trump’s thought police won’t stop at pro-Palestinian voices – they will come for anyone who speaks out.”

Cancelling Disney+ and boycotting Target are excellent. But nothing will do more than what we can do together. Join a union. Solidarity is the power we really have as individuals.
Nothing could be weaker than the feeble might of one. It’s the union makes us strong.

A chemist I know used to say 'oil is so useful for so many things, it's insane that we burn it as fuel.'
Likewise, there are such important things that we can and should be trying to do with advanced algorithmic models, (like this! 👇), that it's insane we're burning the earth for chat bots...

So a Fox news host says THIS. Why hasn't FOX fired him. Why isn't he arrested for inciting violence? What kind of apology is that? Not ALL homeless deserve to be killed? But others do?

Charlie Kirk’s Legacy Deserves No Mourning The white Christian nationalist provocateur wasn’t a promoter of civil discourse. He preached hate, bigotry, and division

2 day oold piping plover. A little Sunday fluff.

Kirk was working in the same tradition as evangelical preachers like William Bell Riley in the 1930s. They were professional anti-evolution debaters who would use cheap tricks to humiliate unwary biology professors who showed up to debate them in front of stacked audiences.

Cancel Culture Comes for Artists Who Posted About Charlie Kirk’s Death A “South Park” episode was taken off air, a DC comic series was canceled, and several artists were fired in the aftermath of the shooting.

One-way cancel culture. Who was fired for celebratingt he attack on Paul Pelosi or saying untrue things about him? They can give it but they can't take it.

The fact that Trump is ordering flags at half-mast when he didn't do it for the lady in MN is *really* fucking weird and abhorrent and speaks goddamn volumes

also that he forgot they'll be lowered tomorrow for 9/11 anyway but that's neither here nor there

It is weird that the assassination of essentially a celebrity influencer is a bigger deal than the shooting of two top state legislators + their spouses
