@NextN3ws @JoshWalkos @spacemanfaure A healed person asking a valid question out of curiosity. What about you?

@mellow_michael @JoshWalkos @spacemanfaure And who tf are you

This YouTuber, Benn Jordan discovered that a surveillance company named Flock Safety who currently has over 90K camera deployed throughout the US, is severely compromised. He found that many cameras are live-streaming directly to the open internet.

@NextN3ws @JoshWalkos @spacemanfaure Be better? How? This is the first I’m reading about this.

@JoshWalkos @spacemanfaure Be better is basically what he’s saying.

Anonymous I’m a school nurse. We have a rule. Kids without lunch money get a cold cheese sandwich. Nothing else. It’s policy. This boy came in one Wednesday. Sixth grader. Stomach pain he said. I’ve been doing this twenty years. I know real stomach pain and I know hunger. “When did you last eat?” He looked at the floor. “Yesterday lunch.” Sent him to the cafeteria with a note. Told them to give him a full hot meal. Pasta. Salad. Milk. The works. Cafeteria lady looked at my note. Looked at me. Gave him the tray without a word. He ate like he hadn’t seen food in days. Probably hadn’t. Came back to my office after. “Am I in trouble?” “For what?” “For eating.” “That’s what food is for.” Started keeping granola bars, peanut butter crackers, juice boxes in my bottom drawer. For kids who come in with headaches that are really hunger. Stomachaches that are really empty. I’m not supposed to. Technically against policy. Don’t care. Told my principal once. She looked at me for a long moment..... Opened her desk drawer. Showed me her stash. Crackers. Fruit snacks. Applesauce. “What drawer?” she said. We never spoke of it again. That sixth grader is in high school now. Came to find me last spring. “I just wanted you to know I’m okay. And that I remembered. I always will.” He volunteers at a food bank on weekends. Has since he was thirteen. Best granola bars I ever bought.

Every additional minute your toddler spends on a screen, they hear about 7 fewer words from you. By age 3, they also make 5 fewer attempts to talk back and lose one back-and-forth exchange with a parent. That’s from a 2024 JAMA Pediatrics study that put speech-recognition recorders inside actual homes across Australia. The 49% stat in this tweet is real. It comes from a 2017 study at SickKids Hospital in Toronto that tracked 894 children aged 6 to 24 months. For every 30 minutes of handheld screen time per day, the risk of a child being slow to form words and sentences increased by 49%. But only the speech output was affected. Gestures, body language, and social interaction were all fine. The mechanism is displacement. A toddler’s brain learns language through something researchers call “serve and return”: baby babbles, parent responds, baby tries again. That loop is how the brain’s language wiring gets built. When a screen is on, that exchange drops off. And we can now see it on brain scans. A 2020 JAMA Pediatrics study at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital scanned the brains of 47 kids aged 3 to 5. Kids with more screen time had weaker white matter, the insulation around nerve fibers that helps different parts of the brain talk to each other. The weak spots were in the exact areas that control language and early reading. A 2023 study at Tohoku University in Japan followed 7,097 children from birth. More screen time at age 1 was associated with higher rates of communication delays at ages 2 and 4. Each additional hour widened the gap. The AAP recommends zero screen time for children under 18 months, except for video calls. The average child under 2 already gets over an hour a day. But a 2023 systematic review found that when kids with speech delays stopped using devices for six months, 36.7% showed measurable improvement. The word in the tweet is “destroys.” The data says it’s closer to “delays,” and in many cases, delays that respond when the screens come off.

A Marine died of a 100% service-connected cancer caused by toxic burn pit exposure. That Marine is the father of my children. He died on November 9, 2025. I was at his bedside for 141 days. I watched everything that happened to him. And we are still fighting. They gave him 60% PDRL for something unrelated… and denied the cancer that actually killed him. His children are still waiting. No TRICARE. No insulin coverage. Our son is type 1 diabetic. He will die without his medicine. We were told his children would be taken care of. That was said publicly. But months later, nothing has been put in place. I don’t know who to turn to anymore. If you’re reading this, please help me get this in front of someone who can fix it. Call your representatives. Tag people. Share this. Because right now, his children are the ones paying the price. Please share this so it reaches someone who can fix it. #StandWithSgtLloyd #Veteran #NoVeteranLeftBehind #BurnPits #PACTAct #Veterans #MilitaryFamilies #Type1Diabetes #TRICARE #Accountability @DeptVetAffairs @HouseVetAffairs @SecVetAffairs

@TheCinesthetic There is a fantastic documentary on her on Apple TV called “Relentless” came out in 2024. Highly recommended

Diane Warren has lost her 17th consecutive #Oscars  nomination, extending her record for the most losses without a win.

@RealEmirHan One of the last scenes of “Boyz n the Hood” is musically scored perfectly to the legendary Stanley Clarke’s “Black on Black Crime” as Doughboy, Dooky and Monster seek to exact revenge for Ricky’s death. youtu.be/28YSH9nqf7U?si…

Which movie scene is musically scored perfectly? I’ll start:

Every day we wait, they suffer. Right now, there are kids praying for a rescue—for someone to step up, step in, and do something.  Are we actually going to protect these kids from further exploitation, or are we just going to keep talking about it?

Look at the map. 338,000+ red dots. Unique IP addresses trading, distributing, and sharing child sexual abuse material… children under 12. Do you notice the blue dots? Probably not. Those are the actual investigations. Law enforcement needs more resources, more support… a bigger rescue team. This is a fight of good vs. evil, and we are losing.
