It's a bit late, but I was reasonably happy with how this turned out and I learned a few things making it.

Nanobody-based recombinant antivenom for cobra, mamba and rinkhals bites - Nature A recombinant antivenom composed of eight nanobodies provides broad protection against venom-induced lethality and dermonecrosis in mice challenged with venoms from cobras, mambas and rinkha...

Really cool study: a fully recombinant antivenom made not from horse serum but from nanobodies i.e. tiny, single-chain antibodies derived from alpacas and llamas. These molecules are smaller, more stable, cheaper to produce, and less likely to trigger immune reactions.

I'm getting some Blender practice this week, although this character was modeled and textured by one of my stepkids.

My own current character modeling project is a futuristic astronaut couple based on my in-laws.

One week after Trump pardoned Binance’s owner (for a stunning array of crimes related to terrorist and sex predator financing), Binance starts promoting Trump crypto.

The White House is a full time, 24/7 corruption machine.

So based on the current Supreme Court's decision, a Democratic President can personally decide to defund ICE.

Just thought I should point this out.

Hard to know when someone is hitchhiking or just like really supportive

I've been a clinical microbiologist for 35 years and I could also find other interests. Maybe even still in the same field, with some basic science research. That would be after the enormous celebration because so much suffering and death had been eliminated.

welcome to America, where the idea that kids should have food gets you labeled some kind of communist

Excellent reminders from @jesscraven101.bsky.social!

* he is historically unpopular
* his policies are deeply unpopular
* he is not inevitable
* our movement can come together and stop him

Impeach, convict, remove.

As ICE continues to terrorize our communities, kidnapping our neighbors, 9 cyclists came together this morning at 6am to buyout 5 vendors and donate the food to a local shelter. They went home safe, hungry ppl were fed, this is #BikeChi ✊🏽

The only chaos during No Kings 2.0 was in the Fox control booth.

Maybe this is obvious to everyone but…why does the White House need a ballroom? It has enough space for state dinners, no? Is this for dances? Weddings? Storing classified documents?

Just confused so the reason would be helpful thx

34 people killed in 50 days. Their guilt or innocence unknown, for an alleged crime that doesn't carry a death sentence. That's a lot of death.

Wake up, babe, the least subtle visual metaphor in history just dropped

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

The earliest songs I remember liking on the radio are this one and "Horse With No Name." I'm sure I liked this one more. At five years old, the other one was catchy but confusing.

We're going to win.

My 14-year-old self would never have guessed that, in 50 years' time, all the world's music would be available at the click of a button, you'd navigate the globe by carrying a tiny computer around in your pocket, and the US President would post a video of himself shitting over American citizens.

Honestly, without snarky intent, 12 is generous. Not just for this, but for the level of cognition he's always presented. No nuance, no detail, no depth, one variable at a time...I'd estimate under ten.

I wouldn't expect to be hired for any entry-level job if my potential employer saw that I had done this. Why does potentially the most important job in the world have zero qualifications?

Wow, lots of American flags and peace . Sure doesn’t seem like people who hate America you absolute embarrassment Speaker Johnson

What a joyful, peaceful, uplifting and motivating day.

There are millions of us who care about our neighbors and our country. Thank you for reminding me.

A stable, functioning democracy is often unassuming, boring even. Easy to take for granted.

But this - millions coming together in a shared public space to insist on their rights as democratic citizens - is a mighty reminder that a proper democracy is something quite incredible and inspiring.

7 million protesters, 0 arrests.

Man we suck at terrorism.

Grew up with Schoolhouse Rock and maybe it should be revived again. No more kings.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=3R1t...

Himes: If you've got the capability to blow a boat out of the water, you've got the capability to interdict it, arrest everyone on board, interrogate them, and find out where it was going, where it came from, who the bosses are, and what the distribution networks look like.

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.

It seems insane, but it should be orders of magnitude more likely than him winning a presidential election. Once.
