This art features 100 bees of various colors and shapes.
These bees are designed in a cartoonish style, based on real species. The common name or species is written below the animals.
Some bees are moving leaves, scraping plant hair, or sticking out their tongues. Some male bees have hairy faces and unusually shaped legs. There are also baby bees that have just hatched from their petal nests. Cute and colorful atmosphere. There are over 20,000 species of bees, so I only depicted a very small fraction of them!

The SAVE Act and the Election Power Grab
The revived bill is a serious threat to voting rights.
The SAVE Act β which would stop millions of American citizens from voting β is Trumpβs election power grab in legislative garb. bit.ly/4qrNeJO

Lines of academy cadets, one in command red seated but at attention while in a wheelchair.
I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them."
That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

Epstein couldn't stop emailing people about eugenics
In the latest files, the trafficker gives it a Silicon Valleyβpilled name: "genetic altruism."
I parsed through some of the emails in the Epstein files, and itβs very clear that Epstein was a eugenicist weirdo. Something he very much had in common with the billionaire class Γ la Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Donald Trump. New for @motherjones.com.

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.
It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.
Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history.

"It is totally inappropriate and against the separations of powers for the DOJ to surveil us as we search the Epstein files. (US Attorney General) Bondi showed up today with a burn book that held a printed search history of exactly what emails I searched." - Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA).
