No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

Bluesky not addictive to teens but definitely a crutch for elder millennials who know too much about the Bajoran war.

Meta, YouTube, TikTok and Snapchat know how addictive their platforms can be to teens.

Those are allegations a group of school districts is making against the social media giants, according to a newly unsealed legal filing that quotes the companies’ own internal documents. https://cnn.it/3Xjq5x5

This is a fantastic overview of the state of understanding regarding "folks in them days" and "what they was up to." (Not a quote from the vid lol)
[NEW VIDEO] In my latest, I apply the first principles of archaeology to the GREAT PYRAMID OF GIZA. It’s a real banger.

It’s got evidence you’ve never seen before, some fun debunks on fake archaeologists, and it features an interview with Dr Zahi Hawass. 🏺🏺🏺

When he says there are too many conspiracy theories, i assume he means there are too many ways to look at the investigative files and see Trump Crimes. The crimes of the other riché, as well.

I went to youtube and searched for "infant with pertussis," and it is not a nice experience!!
Any MAHA/MAGA I meet is going to see it, too!
Ohhh....
The CDC has turned off its vaccine search tool.

The vaccines.gov site now gives an error when you enter a valid zip code.

They also removed text saying “Vaccines can help you stay healthy” and added a banner saying the site is being updated.

Here, at last, we see the perfection, the Apotheosis of The Art of the Deal
Trump should be (won’t be, but should be) embarrassed by the Witkoff transcript. W says to Ushakov “the way to deal with Trump is with obsequious flattery” and U replies “yeah, we obviously know that” [paraphrases].

I really wish journalists would stop using the word "retribution" to describe Trump's efforts to criminalize opposition to him, as it treats his claim that his adversaries did something wrong in the first place.

If people want to understand why American politics went bananas in 2012, the reason is that the moderate black President took a modest but consequential step toward decoupling healthcare from employment and every billionaire immediately poured their entire portfolio into race-hate media

The Dark Mystery of the Agora Bone Well from Athens. Filled with the tiny, fragile skeletons of hundreds of newborn infants, and 150 dogs. Is this evidence of a gruesome ritual or or a plague, famine, or war? Or something else?

A 'quasi-star' could form when a gas cloud over 1,000 times the Sun's mass collapses and forms a black hole. Its outer layers would be big enough to absorb the resulting supernova without being blown apart!

Result: a huge star powered by a black hole.

Completely and utterly untrue. Stats are pretty clear on this one.

Death rate of unvaccinated adults was 12.7 times higher than people with primary vaccination series.

Death rate of unvaxxed was 53.2X higher than among those who were vaxxed & boosted.
