John DesMarteau MD FACA

I can think that Trump really hates Cuomo. By endorsing him he’s almost certainly sealed Cuomo’s political fate and not in a good way.

As an anesthesiologist who used ketamine as an anesthetic (when appropriate of course), even someone under the influence ketamine wouldn’t speak the way Musk does in this clip.

Godfrey is at again….now at Union Station in DC doing his Trump impression for the troops 🤣💀

Someday people will (hopefully) look back on these fascistic acts like we look back on Germany of the 1930s.

The Museum of the Rockies @museumoftherockies.bsky.social is one of the premier paleontology museums in the western US, routinely producing cutting-edge science and showcasing some truly spectacular fossils. Please consider giving them a follow! 🦖🧪

Happy #FossilFriday! The teeth of #Tyrannosaurus were a scary sight for all the #dinosaurs in the #Cretaceous #HellCreek ecosystem. Tyrannosaurus bite marks have been found on the bones of #Triceratops, #Edmontosaurus, and even other Tyrannosaurus!

Physicists Create a Thermometer for Measuring ‘Quantumness’ “Anomalous” heat flow, which at first appears to violate the second law of thermodynamics, gives physicists a way to detect quantum entanglement without destroying it.

A possible way to prove that quantum computers are actually using quantum states for computation, and to explore the quantumness of gravity without destroying the quantum state by direct measurement. 🧪

Condolences. I have an ancestral connection to the Olympic Games. In 1904, Étienne Desmarteau was the first Canadian to win a gold medal for Canada, ironically in the hammer throw.

Mes condoléances. J'ai un lien ancestral avec les Jeux olympiques. En 1904, Étienne Desmarteau fut le premier Canadien à remporter une médaille d'or pour le Canada, ironiquement au lancer du marteau.

Homage to a traitorous Confederate general in Judiciary Square of America’s capital, which did not fall during the Civil War. When Trump is gone, this needs to not only be removed but also melted down so it can never disgrace DC and America again.

The billionaire class can keep stuffing their own pockets more and more and screw everyone else struggling to get by, but history reminds us the day will come when people decide they’ve had enough injustice and oppression.

And madame la Guillotine?

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:

$100 billion

Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:

$100 billion

One is decried as "welfare." One is not.

Why?

there is no hierarchy of citizenship.

there are only citizens. All citizens are imbued with the same legal protections and rights in the U.S.

Some citizens born, some citizens are naturalized, both are fully and equally citizens.

the end.

Sunday Pages: "The Garden of Earthly Delights" A painting by Hieronymus Bosch

Mon Dieu! @gregolear.bsky.social has a wonderful deep dive into Trump’s finding God by connecting the famous 500-year old Hieronymous Bosch painting “The Garden of Earthly Delights” to the MAGA version of Christianity being foisted upon us.

Evacuating the wounded from the frontline has always been one of the most dangerous missions.

Now, it can be performed by robots, saving soldiers’ lives.

As a Dodgers fan, I literally feel like Sarah Connor at the end of the first Terminator. That’s how good the Blue Jays were.

Like we won but I’m so traumatized I’m going to lose custody of my son because I trained him to shoot weapons in Nicaragua and I’ll end up in a max cell at Pescadero

Could turn out to be the last greatest understatement in human history. But if we had a functioning Congress, which we don’t because of the lickspittle Republicans, they could pass a veto-proof law that no president can launch a first-strike nuke.

2nd Nov. 2025 marks the 25th anniversary of the ongoing human presence off-world.

That is, humans have continuously occupied the ISS for exactly 25 years today.

So if you're <= 24 years old, you've never lived in a world where humans were *only* terrestrial-based.

A shame especially for this dual citizen: Canadian and American.

Hope not. My coronaries couldn’t take it.

*Sorry got it wrong it was the top of the 9th.

Bottom of the 9th tied 4-4. Dodgers Miguel Rojas hit a solo homer to tie it up.

Seen on Instagram.

This is the first World Series in 122 years where the President isn't welcome in either stadium.

And he’s trying extortion by tariffs with Canada so it will capitulate and become the 51st state. Canada has the 4th largest proven reserves of O-I-L in the world, not far behind Iran.

We said “no kings” and we meant it.

In many states, Tuesday’s elections are your way to say it again!

Elect Democrats!

PA: KEEP your 3 great justices.

MAINE: No on 1 —don’t let them take away mail in voting!

CA: Yes on 50. Balance the Texas steal!

MIKIE-yes.

ABBY-yes.

Trump has another first to add to his collection of infamies: no one has added more to the American national debt in the least amount of time.

Good chance that Canada won’t exercise the option to buy 72 F-35s beyond the 16 it’s committed to but will buy made in Canada Saab Grippens. This is what Trump’s “America First” leads to.
