Thank you so much for doing that and for sharing your experience - truly wonderful of you!
The only time I have thought to care about follower counts is during my search for a #KidneyDonor - on Google+, I had over 10k thanks to collaborating with @starstryder.space and @fcain.universetoday.com Wonder whether I would already have my transplant if I still had that reach

they are destroying US climate science on purpose, and it hurts my heart. but take it from an MIT-trained nerdass:

all most of us need to know is that we have to stop burning stuff

stop burning stuff for heat

stop burning stuff for make car go

stop burning stuff for power

we have the tools

Since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, HBCUs received terroristic threats. Black students have been expelled or forced to withdraw. Black professors and teachers have been fired and placed on leave. A Black firefighter was placed on leave. A Black journalist was fired

The Free Speech Crisis for Black Americans Is Worse Than You Think
Don’t let Jimmy Kimmel’s return fool you: Black academics are more frightened of talking to the press than I’ve ever seen.

I really want to hear an exobiology lecture given in a strong DelCo accent. I think hearing about the spectral signature of "wooder" would be precious.
You haven't failed - I am just obstinate when it comes to some things. Maybe too many things. But that song will remain one of them.

I do like what I hear from your other vids, including your vocals 😊

On to Schindleria Praematurus !
I don't understand. I posted about how I can't stand this song, but then you post yourself playing along with it.

Thanks for the write up - adding this to my read list

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.
In news that isn't completely soul-sucking, I still need a kidney. New site - now with more info for potential donors! (Typos will be corrected soon.)

Wait - I can get the RSV vaccine now? When I have been scheming for ways to get it for the past few years?

Huh?

I get the rapture jokes and I’m enjoying them as much as the next guy and also I hope everyone is keeping in the back of their minds the fact that these folks are literally praying that all the Jews in the entire world drop dead tonight so they can climb over our dead bodies to reach heaven

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

The cruelest thing about the Trump/Kennedy pseudoscience press conference today is that there are now women who believe they caused their child’s autism.

To those women: you didn’t.
I'm surprised we haven't had more rapture predictions while this regime is in place. You know there are grifters among their ranks who are waiting for the gullible faithful to give up their worldly possessions then tell them "too bad" when the event doesn't happen.
I moved here from Florida, a bit over 20 years ago. I've lived within a few miles of the coast nearly the entire time. It has gotten more humid - and cloudier ☹️ - over the 2 decades.
I am on the wait list for a #KidneyTransplant - every time I start a task or some activity that takes more than a few minutes to complete, I think about how to interrupt it if I get The Call. I've been in this state of mind for 2 months now. It's wearing on me.
