Me and my environmentalist homies were executed by the former capitalists:(

I prefer the nano design with the shorter screen, this one throws off the balance of the device somehow

You have the right to protest, but be sure not to try to influence the government!

The judge and prosecution alike have attempted to portray the trio’s actions as intended to “influence a government” – language central to the British government’s legal definition of “terrorism.”

Germany tried to get people to leave voluntarily, they didn’t want to pay for the deportations they wanted (which they also did do a lot, they paid a price per person to other states to take deportees. As much as possible they tried to use stolen assets to fund expulsion). Only mentioning this because this is happening in the US right now and that’s one of the elements I found especially disgusting after reading Arendt’s Eichmann in Jerusalem. The collaboration of other states who should have read the signs and intervened instead of making deals.

If you ever fall in the water remember you don’t need to be able to swim to float! Try to stay calm and pull a big breath of air into your lungs to make you more buoyant. Put your chest towards the sky and lean your head back. Spread your arms over your and and open your legs a bit like you’re making a snow angel. Take small breaths so you keep as much air as possible in your lungs. Call for help! Obviously harder in choppy water than calm, but you don’t need to expend energy dog paddling while you wait for someone to notice and help.

I’m fine with the probiotic bit, but they made it sound like they put it into a ‘synthetic organ’ and I find engineering little organs creepy (though neat). If it’s just a super-probiotic I’m not creeped out! Either way I’m excited for all the people.

Thinking about a little synthetic organ chillin’ in there gives me heebie jeebies! So does my aunt’s pig heart valve though.

No one can ever convince me it’s more efficient paying someone $200k instead of two people $100k to get a thing done.

I HATE IT but I hope it works

Using synthetic biology techniques, the research team engineered a probiotic with a century-long history of safety into an “intelligent virtual organ” that can be taken orally and reside temporarily in the intestine. It can sense blood glucose fluctuations in real time and autonomously secrete glucose-lowering hormones, enabling therapeutic dosing in response to real-time blood glucose levels, and providing a programmable, orally deliverable sense-and-respond platform for metabolic therapy without transplantation.

Well if they end the war to qualify…

Edit: oh wow this whole time I thought it meant participating my bad everyone

Kind of cowardly, but still everyone will read this as an Israel ban so I guess it’s a win

Reports say they meddled in the 2025 mayor election in NYC. Mayor of NYC is a big deal because NYC is such a large economy, not to mention a cultural center.

I put on Mrs. Davis on a whim and really enjoyed it

Same I stop it first (before zero) then open the door. I want to give the radiation time to drain.

Love the twitter terms disclaimer

I walk for errands a lot and I’ve found myself planning routes down quiet low traffic streets just like I take into account hills and shade to stay comfortable. The constant engine sound and exhaust clouds really make things unpleasant even on an otherwise picturesque street. When I’m forced to walk down a busy street I’m naturally drawn to daydreaming about my city keeping its cars on the perimeter (to be used for long distance car trips, hiking/camping) with a little monorail for getting to the garages.

I do think individual (not species) inclination played a bigger role than people usually imagine. We frame evolution as kind of a mechanical inevitability when we teach it in schools (at least when I was taught) and this misses some important complexity.

It also misses an opportunity teach the species problem in biology which I find super intriguing.

That’s so sad, I’m glad kid/teen you was able to see through the family norms for your sister. Big ups.

Only people on the Sumerian king list

Well almost everyone in the country has served in the IDF
