Heavy cannabis use could pose this threat to the brain A large study from the University of Colorado found heavy cannabis use is linked to reduced brain activity. Lead researcher Joshua Gowin and neurosurgeon Paul Saphier discuss the impact on health.

In this cross-sectional study of 1003 young adults, heavy lifetime cannabis use was associated with lower brain activation during a working memory task.

To those who stand with Ukraine: Under age 18 Americans are a majority non-white. Do you think they care one bit for another white European border dispute? They don't think Europe is worth fighting for. Check your privilege.

President's Biden's bipartisan border bill was to hire 1000 more border guards and add about 500 immigration judges.
That is, double down on a dysfunctional system. Trump shut the border down in two weeks. How un-American.

Screen shot showing Grok3 refusing to discuss if the mRNA vaccine is taken up by organs other than muscle and immune cells.

Oh my God. Grok3 follows the narrative closely. We live in a sea of lies.

That is nearer to $72,000 with benefits according to Grok3. The average IRS bill is $13,000 (median is $5,000). So, it takes 5 1/2 average taxpayers to pay him. If he lives in a poorer area, it might take 10 to 20 of his neighbors' income taxes to pay him.

I use Grok3 a lot on X. Very useful in searching for data. However, there are some words you cannot use. Note the interaction in the attached graphic. It under scores the fact that these AI's are not self-aware or intelligent. They are just dumb algorithms, no matter what their designers say.

I lived through those days. There were so many things deductible that the effective tax rate was much lower than the nominal tax rate.

A chart showing demand and solar power in the UK so far in 2025. Solar has supplied less than 2% of demand with a solar panel efficiency of 3%.

@bsky.app The leadership of the UK wants to be a world leader in fighting climate change. The UK is pushing solar power as part of this, and is destroying farmlands for solar farms. Here is the most recent data this year for solar in the UK. What do you think?

You left out SpaceX. Without SpaceX, the US would not have access to the ISS. SLS is apparently going to be dumped.

Take blacks and latinos out of the crime stats, the USA has a very low homicide rate. You can't fix a problem until you admit it exists.
Of interest, black babies are normally of lower birth weight than white babies. That used to give Louisiana high marks in survival of premature babies.

Perhaps it would be good to use some energy to look at what is being found, and not threaten the people who are finding it.

I am on page 95 of the 900 page opus The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health (Children’s Health Defense) by RFK, jr.
If 1/10th of what he says is true, we are in for interesting times. We can all learn together.

The UK is committed to net-zero by 2050. Here is the UK grid for this year.
They have worked for years to get wind and solar on their grid.
They emit 1% of the world's CO2.
The grid is 1/3rd of the UK's power consumption.
The UK has the world's most expensive electricity.
Reflect.

Well, after the events of the last several weeks, are you still of the opinion that Musk just posts on X?

Death of alien-hunting Arecibo Telescope traced to cable issues 3 years earlier, 'alarming' report finds A scathing new report points to unclear protocols and multiple failures to raise alarms at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico before the collapse of the site's radio telescope in 2020.

The NSF had responsibility for the Arecibo radio-telescope. They let it collapse through negligent maintenance.

Now, it is the site of a DEI approved education center.

Sounds rigorous.
The NSF should be gutted, renamed, and rebuilt.

Do you sincerely believe the US govt bureaucracy is free of corruption?
Those kids are finding the corruption. The shutdowns and cancellations of grants is done by other people.
You should hate the people who made Trump's election possible. You know who they are.

Unlike the BLM rioters who were paid after being arrested, or the 2016 D.C. rioters who all had their charges dropped, the current group of left wing violent people may not get off so easily. What if they are not charged in D.C. and instead face a real trial?
