You first.

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

US joins Russia to vote against UN resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine | CNN Politics The United States joined Russia to vote against a UN General Assembly resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine Monday in a stunning shift from years of US policy.

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

Sometimes my colleagues & I genuinely wonder if we are working in the last years of the NHS. This is no longer a fight just for staff the UK public needs to make a stand with us before it's too late. The #NHS belongs to all of us. All of us should protect it!

Every accusation is a confession with these dopes. In this case, calling someone obviously brilliant dumb.

WaPo quote: “A Washington Post review of Kennedy's public appearances found he also promoted these centers as particularly beneficial for Black youth. "Every Black kid is now just standard put on Adderall, on SSRIs, benzos which are known to induce violence and those kids are going to have a chance to go somewhere and get re-parented, to live in a community where there'll be no cellphones, no screens. You'll actually have to talk to people," Kennedy said in a June 2024 episode of the 19Keys online show”

Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

IUPAT Twitter post: There are nearly 3 million immigrants in the construction industry, and they deserve the same rights as all other workers. Our union stands with our immigrant members and all working people in this country — an injury to one is an injury to all.

Every union should be echoing this statement.

let me strongly recommend the flu shot to whoever hasn't gotten one for this season. i just had a *terrible* bout with the flu that almost certainly would have been WAY worse had i not been vaccinated

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

Can UK universities find the high road to economic growth? The long-mooted Oxford-Cambridge corridor is one avenue chancellor Rachel Reeves intends to pursue in search of a way out of the economic doldrums. But where does her focus on existing strengths leave...

For a government keen on buzzwords, talk of growth has become inescapable. For universities – which have been told explicitly by education secretary Bridget Phillipson that future funding asks are conditional on contributing more to growth – the quest has become existential #AcademicSky

Daily stair climbing, disease susceptibility, and risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A prospective cohort study The associations between intensity of stair climbing and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and how these vary by underlying disease susceptibility are not fully understood.

Always ready for a quote from Tacitus

When I was 5, I loved science, which I took to be planets and magnets and chemicals and shit.
