The one that we sent money to and that raised billions? Where did it go? Where did the $400M of Venezuelan oil money sitting a Qatari bank go? When will the GOP wake the fuck up to the fact the President is fleecing the country and using it like his personal piggy bank!

An N95, taken off occasionally doesn't provide 100% protection. But even if you get sick while 😷, it's generally lower viral load, leading to milder illness. Each CV-19 illness causes persistent IQ loss that might be permanent. The degree of IQ loss is correlated with severity:

FT Exclusive: Four months after its establishment, the organisation’s financial fund set up by the World Bank has received no money from donors, according to four people familiar with the matter. ft.trib.al/aqWkkaM

At least 1 person was killed and 9 were injured after an implosion at a pulp and paper mill in Longview, Washington. Nine employees remain missing. Authorities first estimated the tank had 80,000 gallons of liquid. It actually contained 900,000 gallons. seattletimes.com/seattle-news/m…

Spearmint and caraway seeds smell completely different. Fresh. Sweet. Minty vs warm, spicy, earthy. Yet the difference comes down to mirror images of the same molecule: Carvone. Same atoms. Same bonds. Same formula. Only one thing changes: 3D orientation. • (R)-carvone → spearmint • (S)-carvone → caraway Our noses can tell them apart because olfactory receptors are chiral too they “feel” molecular handedness, just like a left hand doesn’t fit a right glove. This is a beautiful reminder that in chemistry (and biology), shape matters as much as composition. Something you can literally smell. Chemistry is everywhere - even in your spice rack.

The natural EU response to Russia’s threat to bomb their embassies in Kyiv systematically would be to expel all Russian diplomats in Europe and end diplomatic relations with Russia, declaring it a terror state.

@mouvement33 @adgirlMM And they’ll be obsolete as soon as someone comes up with an algorithm to fold space. Back when email started, remember how much storage you got with Hotmail? 2 megabytes! That’s why human brains have a zillion folds & crevices

🚨 🧵 Wake up, folks — Data centers aren't "the future." They're making us SICK right now. Your neighborhood. Your kids' lungs. Your sleep. All under attack by these massive AI-powered monsters sucking up power, water, and spewing pollution 24/7. Here's the ugly truth:

Republicans in Texas are really trying to convince voters that being a fictional vegan is worse than being actually corrupt?????

The news feeds you fear. Science quietly keeps you alive. Since 1960: • Extreme poverty ↓ • Life expectancy ↑ • Child mortality ↓ • Food supply ↑ • Education ↑ Humanity is not collapsing. You’re just watching an algorithm optimize for fear and panic.

On behalf of the people of Washington state, I want the Longview community to know that we stand with you.

@TrueFactsStated I read the weather sections of travel guides for Australia & New Zealand & was aghast. (Insects were mentioned too). No thank you.

The worst part about visiting Australia (for me) in the summer was not the heat. It was the flys. At the hotel they handed out fly nets to drape over your head/face so you could go outside.

Unlike impeached, cheater, indicted @KenPaxtonTX - @jamestalarico has actually passed bipartisan bills in the Texas legislature as a Democrat in a Republican-dominated chamber: During his two terms, Talarico passed: ∙A significant reform to the state’s school finance system — described as the most sweeping in 20 years ∙The first-ever cap on pre-K class sizes in Texas ∙A bill to improve early childhood education across the state ∙A cap on insulin copays ∙A law requiring all incarcerated minors in Texas be given the opportunity to graduate with a high school diploma He’s also a Dem who won a Trump district.

I read all 277 pages of SpaceX's IPO filing so you don't have to. Losses up 700%. Revenue decelerating. 107x price-to-sales multiple. It's a trainwreck. Full breakdown below 👇

This is going to end well.

As primary season concludes, Trump's ability to exact direct vengeance upon members of his own Party dissipates. The reality of his unpopularity, greed and grift, and untrustworthiness begins to engender greater realization that he's a scumbag and a lame duck. Quack, quack.

Kids should be playing with their friends, learning at school, and going home to see their families. No child should be ripped away from their family, held in detention. Any country that detains children has lost its moral compass.

3 cuts can save a life. Avoid single-use plastic if you can, but if you wind up with one of these: those 3 cuts take about 5 seconds and can prevent a slow death for wildlife.
