Why are we so vulnerable to violence during one of the most vulnerable positions a woman can possibly find herself in.
Society obviously turning a blind eye to this.

Flowers and the Birth of Ecology Without flowers, there would be no us.

Darwin could not comprehend how flowers could emerge so suddenly and take over the planet so completely. He called it an “abominable mystery.” 🧪

The scatter plot displays the relationship between state infant mortality rate, both sexes and all under age 1, for states ordered by percent Evangelical. Data on this religious group is rare and the consequences of what being a member of this kind a church is largely unknown. Data exists for earlier years and as I wrote this it occurred to me that I should probably look at it also. In case the program does not read the statistics I repeat them here. r = 0.77 b, change in the infant deaths for each percent in crease in Evangelicals = 0.084 a, the predicted infant mortality rate for state with no Evans = 4.293 The predicted infant death for the hypothetical state 100% Evangelical is 12.69, 2.96 times the predicted rate for the hypothetical state 0% Evangelical. If you have daughters dating. an Evangelical, you might show them this.

Evangelical infant mortality is about 2.95 times as high as non-Evangelical. This is probably due to 93% of the Evangelicals who rely on prayer for health care. I blame the ministers who use that promise, probably to increase $ contributed. I am mean but not as mean as them. See more at ALT. 🧪💡☠️

Banting, Best, and Collip published initial results on the use of insulin to treat diabetes #OTD in 1922.

They later sold their patent to University of Toronto for $1 each, hoping the agreement would keep the lifesaving medication cheap and accessible. 🧪

The Onion Remembers Steve Bannon, Trump’s Most Encrusted Advisor White House Staff Reminded To Place Lids Firmly On Trash Cans After Steve Bannon Gets Into Garbage Again

The Onion Remembers Steve Bannon, Trump’s Most Encrusted Advisor

We have a measles out break, a tuberculosis outbreak and Avian Flu ALONG with the usual rhino virus, RSV, flu and COVID at this very moment.

They don't care if we die. Believe that!

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

I’m not a lawyer and I don’t give out legal advice, but I’d rather throw my legs up over my head and scrape the backs of my thighs with a cheese grater than accept a deferred resignation offer from these unfuckable douchelords.

Hi. Jewish person here. These are concentration camps and should be called that by everyone.

It’s how a sociopath thinks and speaks in the face of a tragedy. He has no idea how to react because—and I mean this literally, not figuratively—he actually doesn’t care. He’s just trying to figure out what a normal human adult would say, though candidly I’m not sure he much cares about that either.

Donald Trump is the most unpopular president at the start of his term in modern American political history.

Don't let anyone talk to you about a mandate.

Don't let anyone talk to you about there being support for his agenda.

Don't let anyone tell you that anything about this presidency is normal.

Biden Says Equal Rights Amendment Has Passed, but Does Not Force Certification (Gift Article) The remarks were largely a symbolic gesture of support for a century-long campaign to enshrine gender equality in the Constitution. But advocates said they could add heft to a future legal fight.

#EmptyWords

➡️#Biden’s statement didn’t include a call to publish #ERA
➡️Archivist #Shogan shirked her ministerial duty
➡️The Federal Register didn’t mention any actual action taken to #PublishTheERA.
Pretty words didn’t move the dial: We always get what we always got.

#DeedsNotWords
#ERANow

I like this idea that the ERA has been part of the Constitution for five years but just nobody was talking about it. I’m sorry but it feels Ike cope to me. And yes I’ve seen the other lawyers’ take on it.

It’s not about the cold… it’s about the small crowd size.

3/ There were going to be protests due to the venue. Needless to say, Trump returning to the scene of _one_ of his greatest crimes—I refuse to ignore the 25+ sexual assaults—was always obscene, and presented an incredible opportunity for protests that would distract media and dampen Trump’s moment.

(🧵) A thread on possible reasons Inauguration Day is being moved indoors. To be clear—speaking as a Trump biographer—the chances it’s being moved because Trump is concerned about the safety of the crowd in frigid temps is...zero. It’ll be cold but not dangerously so, and he doesn’t value human life.

I’m considering spending Inauguration Day posting images and video of the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol.

I feel like that would be one way to acknowledge the obscenity—and that’s the _only_ word for it: obscenity—of Trump being inaugurated after inciting an armed rebellion against America.

The price of eggs is about to skyrocket under co-presidents Trump and Musk. Georgia is the top chicken-producing state.

Keep in mind Trump and Musk also want—at DHHS—RFK Jr., who presumably believes there is nothing anyone can ever do about bird flu ever and we should just let it send eggs to $800.

CBS considers caving on Trump censorship lawsuit to save Paramount merger The lawsuit seeks $10 billion in damages.

Trump may be about to get another massive payday by shaking down media like a back-alley thug with a crooked shiv.

This is straight-up mafia tactics by a soon-to-be-sitting co-president—and it’s working.

Repeat: These are... literally... organized crime-style shakedowns.

In practical terms I assume the way it would work is Turner goes independent and agrees to caucus with the Democrats if they... I dunno... make him co-ranking member of the Intel Committee with Himes, and offer something good if they take the House in 2026 (if there are elections)?

I admire Rep. Raskin a ton, and do not think I am putting words in his mouth when I say that he implied multiple times during this interview that Democrats might consider reaching out to Turner about jumping parties, which would be earth-shattering given how close the count in the House is right now
