Almost 30 years after the nerves inside the penis were mapped, the same mapping has been completed on the clitoris. Cultural taboos about female sexuality have held back scientific study. The clitoris wasn't in standard anatomy textbooks until 1995. theguardian.com/society/2026/m…

I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran. This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war. Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons. I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late. Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.

@TheSpiderLily But have you tried that one with mustard yet?

The Western European mind cannot comprehend this.

How did the UAE supply the RSF & sustain its war effort in Sudan for 2+ years? What dictated the reliance on Amdjarass, Kufra or other nodes? More broadly, how did Sudan's war affect arms trafficking & mercenary networks in Chad & Libya? My in-depth report @GI_TOC: globalinitiative.net/analysis/impac…

@johnkrausphotos @AJamesMcCarthy I ordered Andrew's calendar and unless it won't arrive in the EU (patiently waiting), the shipping was way lower than I feared.

I get a lot of these requests for people to use their own printers. It’s usually, IMO, a ploy to avoid (international) shipping costs. I’ve put a lot of work and resources and finances into using a reliable printer whose work I can vouch for, and who produces a consistent look. Makes no sense to give that up for a printer I’ve never worked with.

This is a real exchange I had just now. I can’t believe this is a real person 😆 I like to believe there’s still value in doing things that are real.

@AJamesMcCarthy Already ordered!

This year I'm giving away 53 device downloads with my calendars! 4k, ultrawide, mobile, and tablet formats. Plus, during the preorder period, I'll be hand-signing every single calendar! Unless you get Gregory's, that one will be paw-signed. Preorders start in about ~12 hours

@dieworkwear Okay but what watch is she wearing?

Rocki Irish Mayers sounds like the Dropkick Murphys B-side (saying this with love and respect bc I love Rihanna)

Das Leben eines palästinensischen Menschen ist so genauso wertvoll und schützenswert wie das Leben eines jüdischen Menschen.

Many are asking what comes next: Ghaniwa’s death signals the likely fragmentation (& eventual dissolution) of Tripoli’s oldest post-revolutionary armed group. GNU-aligned forces will now move to seize the SSA’s headquarters before turning to their next target - likely to be SDF.

@martyna_lin @rowohlt @rosaluxstiftung Sehr cool! Das wird ordentlich verschenkt und rumgereicht. :)

Mein Baby ist da! Am 15. April erscheint es bei @rowohlt, am selben Abend um 19h feiern wir Premiere in der @rosaluxstiftung in Berlin - kommt vorbei! 🥳

Trying to sell climate change as something positive is a new kind of stupid.

"Im done begging people to care about Palestinians. Im writing this not because I hope to change any minds but because the only power I have, the only power that many of us have, is to continually raise our voices & say that we do not consent to this" Yes theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

We lost a wonderful colleague of ours. It was a great pleasure having met Jenni!

The Great Barrier Reef is in hot water - literally. Record-breaking heat is continuing to turn vibrant coral into ghostly graveyards. If we don’t change the course of the #ClimateCrisis, the fallout won’t stop at the shoreline. bit.ly/4bJPhDc

Israel carried out “genocidal acts” against Palestinians by systematically destroying women’s healthcare facilities during its war on Gaza and using sexual violence as a war strategy, say UN experts. Read more: aje.io/pup0ac
