Lovely talk tonight on Why We Die (if no-one firebombs you) by 2009 Chemistry Nobel Laureate Venkatraman Ramakrishnan (he elucidated the structure of ribosomes) at Technical University of Dresden. Conclusion was that mid 110s are probably our limit. He wrote a book on this. @tudresden.bsky.social
Good grief. How appalling. Although it is in line with the UK into which I was born. They couldn't get rid of British people fast enough, subsidising travel to colonies. My parents dragged us to NZ, then Australia (not subsidized, they were employed as physicians. Excitement seekers, me too).
For context on just how far the Overton Window has shifted to the right on this issue, here’s a snippet from the BNP’s 2010 manifesto.

It’s outrageous they’re killing innocent people, but we also need to stress, every time, that it would not really matter even it were absolutely certain that they were drug traffickers. Murdering criminals is still, you know, murder.
The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no evidence they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had proof, they’d face a court, not a drone.

The law still applies, even to suspected drug traffickers, and right now, the Administration’s story isn’t adding up.
@windona.bsky.social Nobel Laureates are always way cool. I wanted to do my post-doc in England when I was finishing my PhD in Australia and wrote to a Nobel Laureate asking if he had a position open. He hand-wrote a letter, telling me UK was finished, go to America! So I did, 47 years ago today.
Philly cat lovers? One needs your love. Currently I am not in Philly.
Anyone know of a no kill cat rescue that is not full near Philly metro or Wilmington, DE? Little guy showed up yesterday and today. I already have a few rescues and can’t take in another. 😢
Wow. I bought my house in 1983, when I was 31. My two 40s kids own houses, my two 30s kids do not.
The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year.

In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

It is not widely reported, but Medi-Cal (Cali’s Medicaid) is set to end at the end of December because of the Government shutdown

And CalFresh (Cali’s food stamps) is set to end at the end of October

So millions of people will lose their food assistance & healthcare in a matter of weeks or months

🇵🇱 Poland arrests at least 7 agents working for Russia and preparing acts of sabotage.

🇷🇴 Romania capture two agents tha placing bombs inside parcel deliveries intended for later detonation.
So Graham Platner is actually Maine's John Fetterman? Urgh. Now I understand why they want an ancient lady governor to run to tople Susan Collins.

Years ago, Graham Platner got salty on Reddit? Far better choice for Maine senate seat than Susan Collins who supports the Diarrhea Felon doing his thing metaphorically and kinda literally, and is grasping at straws to pull down a decent human.
David Suchet as Poirot. Obviously.
For me it’s Sean Hayes as Jack McFarland in Will & Grace
I think we know far too much about the ass of the Diarrhea Felon.
FACT CHECK: FALSE 🚨
Forget all the rest of the stuff: Zohran will be the best mayor ever BECAUSE he is young, has boundless energy, is brilliant, and cares about human lives. Four parties in one night, my gosh, that exhausts me thinking about it.
Virginia Guiffre breaks my heart over and over. A little girl with no-one protecting her. Occurred to me she killed herself because she knew she would be murdered when the book was published; maybe she was murdered. Desperately tragic life for someone born so beautiful. #ProtectYourDaughters
Good morning and happy Tuesday to everyone. Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir drops today and contains the truth she wanted the world to hear about Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, who groomed her to become a sex slave for Epstein and his wealthy friends. Buy it. Read it. Give her justice.
I wonder when the Diarrhea Felon will pardon Prince Andrew, and give him $40 billion to do pedophile-prince stuff in the White House ballroom. Can a US potus pardon a UK prince? We will find out.
Philadelphia! Fridays @ Fetterman's is vigil for 24 hours outside the US Customs Building at 2nd and Chestnut starting 11.15 am Friday October 24. Great speakers have been lined up, all welcome to come for an hour or 24. Focus is on Palestine: genocide would have stopped if you'd voted for Kamala.
