Media won’t play footage people don’t care about and there hasn’t been a β€œrally around the flag”, and ofc Americans could give less of a fuck about thousands of people dying

If there were credible allegations against a Democratic president that he had punched a 13 yr old girl in the face after she bit his penis while he was raping her, Fox would be running that shit on a loop 24/7 and calling for his arrest/execution let alone his impeachment.

re the womanizing, my doomer take is that so long as isn’t too gratuitous, openly demonstrating your willingness to sexually violate women is an electoral plus among most non-queer people and a lot of β€œmasculine” gay men

πŸŒ€ We solved the structure for T. denticola periplasmic flagella!

I'm very happy to finally showcase this work. A huge collaborative effort between myself, @bindusmitapaul.bsky.social, @debnathghosal.bsky.social, Jack Kim, @banfieldlab.bsky.social, Eric Reynolds and the Chris Fenno lab.

🦠 Enjoy!

This feature on npr was also my first time hearing about this. Extraordinary injustice in the part of the Feds and particularly Northwestern. Shame.

Sanchez: Women's rights should never be used as a pretext for launching wars that serve other interests. If we truly believe in the freedom of Iranian women, the response cannot be more violence. It must be more diplomacy, more support, and more international law.

Wonderful (and fun!) read from @mastroianni.bsky.social which finishes with a clear answer on how to solve the collective action problem of dismantling scientific publishing

Is it the same coalition tho? I would guess Crockett has more urban renters than the suburban liberals in talarico’s camp. Curious if there’s any exit polling data because I haven’t gotten up to date on it if so

States Move to Limit Access to H.I.V. Treatment

this will be a public health disaster.

We could end the transmission of HIV this year. That has been true for a decade. That we have not done so is a public policy choice.

Israel has been continuously bombing Lebanon almost every day for over a year. Anyone who tells you β€œHezbollah broke the ceasefire” is either lying to you, or is just so incredibly biased that their brain genuinely doesn’t register Israeli bombings of Lebanon as ceasefire violations.

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for β€œArmageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

There are so-called moderates out here who think the Armageddon fanatics are more β€œnormal” than people who use non-genders pronouns.

This is what happens when your constitution heavily skews your elections to empower the rural shitholes where these CREATURES lurk

But not really tho. Politics is about power and if you do everything u can to allow the Right to consolidate power.. the law won’t matter because you can coerce people through extralegal activities. If anything putting undeserved trust in β€œthe Constitution” is why we’re in this shithole

It's a pretty funny criticism because

1) the data are sourced from a public database, NIH RePORTER
2) "Deranged activist" Jeremy Berg was an NIH institute director for 7 years

and most importantly
3) Thacker admits the story is totally accurate
