What's more shocking than ICE's plan to cram as many 8,500 humans into massive, soul-crushing warehouses?
Seeing the actual DHS floor plan that echoes slavery ships and history's worst gulags with no rec space but a gun range for guards

Don't know, here in the UK, if it's Dr's job to read research. Feels like they are on rails, following a big flowchart. Above that, the people who write the flowchart, they need to read the research. (Partner has ME 20 yrs, I went to an ME conference once.)

Rev. Jesse Jackson's "I *am* somebody..." remains one of the all-time great pieces of 20th century rhetoric / agitprop

Just read a post about how normal kids are on it and we're going to win. Been here before. Remember peace & love hippies? Don't rely on the kids to save us. It needs all of us, especially those with something to lose.

IT'S DOING SO MUCH STUFF! 2020s LIFE IS A SEETHING MASS OF RNA THAT SOMETIMES USES DNA TO TAKE NOTES. WHAT DO THE PROTEINS DO? ERRANDS FOR RNA.
Itβs an RNA world. RNA is posited to be the first genetic material, arising 4 billion years ago. It can store information and act as an enzyme. Eventually, it duplicated its information into a more stable form, DNA.

The number of trans youth suicides in the UK quadrupled in 2021 following significant restrictions in access to care. The NHS tried to cover this up with a fake report that tried to hide the truth.
