Hi, I’m God.

Jesus and I agree that starving the poor so you can build yourself golden bathrooms and golden ballrooms is evil. Anyone who does that shall burn for eternity. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Thanks,

God

Little is known about the UPS MD-11F accident at this point, but footage taken from the air shows a chunk of one engine nacelle inlet sitting at a spot 2,000 feet before the end of runway 17R at SDF.

Austrian researchers identify persistent immune protein as biomarker for complications of Long COVID-19

PTX-3 has been identified as a biomarker for tissue damage, immune activation, and post-infection issues, offering insight into Long COVID and ME/CFS biological mechanisms.

archive.li/WB5AE

Screenshot of a Labmate Online article titled “Austrian researchers identify persistent immune protein as biomarker for complications of Long COVID-19.” The subheading explains that researchers at the Medical University of Vienna found the immune molecule pentraxin 3 (PTX3) remains elevated in patients months after severe COVID-19 infection, suggesting it could serve as a biomarker for long-term tissue damage, immune activation, and post-viral complications such as Long COVID.

Below the text is an image showing a scientist wearing a mask and lab attire, examining a tray of samples in front of a computer displaying bright, microscopic images of cells labeled PTX3 in blue, purple, and orange tones.

Another example of vibe shift between Trump’s first presidency and now: In 2017, Teen Vogue stood out for outspoken, social-justice politics. In 2025, it laid off its entire politics team, including the last two Black women journalists on staff.

NBC and CBS have made similar moves.

"No Amount of Hand-Washing Can Make COVID-19 a Seasonal Virus"

Published: 14 August, 2024

"The left image shows that SARS-CoV-2 propagated to most organs, whereas the right image shows that influenza was mostly confined to the liver and lungs"

Source: whn.global/scientific/n...

Two 3D-imaged mice comparing how SARS-CoV-2 and influenza spread through the body. The left image, labeled Spike S1, shows red fluorescent signals across many organs, indicating that SARS-CoV-2 propagated widely throughout the body. The right image, labeled Influenza HA, shows red signals largely limited to the lungs and liver, demonstrating influenza’s more localized infection pattern. The figure caption notes that SARS-CoV-2 affects multiple organs, unlike influenza.

Red Planet was a science fiction film that debuted in theaters in 2000.

Watch at least the first 45 seconds or up to just after the first minute (up to the title drop, if you’d like).
