I’m infuriated at what demented batshit crazy Drumpf and his evil Kkklan are doing to destroy our country and our people. We must save our democracy! #VoteBlue #NeverTrump #Resist Lover of all things LSU & N.O. Saints! No DMs please. I will not respond.

We got real serious problems with these morons dismantling our economy. Even discussing a remote possibility of handing out $5,000 checks is insane, never mind spending many billions so Hegseth can have more missiles to shoot at people to feel like a real boy.

Haha. This guy actually ran for governor of California. He's an Oath Keeper and the kind of guy that creeps around goth clubs inviting people to his key parties. It's like if Meatloaf and Greg Bovino had a baby.

BREAKING NYT: The California Supreme Court just ordered a county sheriff to return about 650,000 ballots he seized from election officials as part of an investigation into voter fraud that state officials said had no basis in fact.

My greatest fear is that out of sheer laziness Americans will forget to punish Jeff Bezos & the other oligarchs heading to State Dinner. Trump makes no secret of his priorities or who and what he values, but that Bezos gets to be an overlord just because folks order crap online?

Many of the babies’ autopsy reports were clear: Vitamin K deficiency was the immediate cause of death, or contributed to it. The reports also included details about parents refusing the vitamin K shot, a long-standard injection, for their newborns. (Published May)

What I Can’t Forget About the Babies Who Died After Not Receiving a Vitamin K Shot

Babies have died after not receiving the vitamin K shot at birth. Their autopsy records underscore how preventable their deaths could have been.

“When I was in kindergarten in 1961, I survived a near-fatal case of measles… my clearest memory of that period is my father carrying me to our station wagon & rushing me to the hospital. I stayed for a month, part of it in a coma, my blood pressure dangerously unstable” @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

Measles almost killed me. Now I’m a doctor — and I'm scared of what's happening

Jewel Mullen was in kindergarten in 1961 when she almost died from measles. Now a physician, measles’ return frightens her.

A maternity ward doctor donated his own blood during surgery to keep a pregnant patient alive. One woman gained fewer than 10 pounds over her entire pregnancy. Another collapsed and had seizures during labor. (Published Dec. 2025)

Texas officials just admitted DPS failed to send an unknown number of voter registration applications to county officials. Up to 6 million Texans have used that same DPS portal to register since 2020. If yours got lost, you might not be on the rolls, even though you did everything right…

German chemist Dr. Ida Noddack co-discovered Rhenium (element 75) in 1925. She died #OTD in 1978. She was the first to propose the concept of nuclear fission (1934). Her theory was met with fierce skepticism and outright dismissed by contemporary physics giants. But 4 years later...🧵 #WomenInSTEM

A close-up, black-and-white portrait of Dr. Ida Noddack (1896–1978), the pioneering German chemist and physicist who co-discovered the chemical element rhenium and was the first to propose the concept of nuclear fission in 1934. Dr. Noddack is positioned at a slight three-quarter angle while turning her face toward the camera, establishing a direct connection with the viewer. Her light-colored hair is styled neatly, swept up and away from her face in a soft, textured wave arrangement typical of the mid-20th century. Her expression is composed and contemplative, marked by a subtle, knowing half-smile that conveys an aura of quiet confidence, intelligence, and academic resolve. She wears a simple, dark-toned V-neck blouse or jacket, drawing focus directly to her facial features. The portrait is set against a completely dark, minimalist background devoid of any objects or setting context, creating a formal studio aesthetic. The lighting is soft yet deliberate, illuminating the left side of her face to emphasize her expression while casting gentle shadows across her right cheek. The composition relies on high-contrast monochromatic tones and a grainy, vintage texture characteristic of early photographic film, reinforcing its archival and historic nature. The overall mood is dignified and deeply intellectual, honoring her enduring legacy as a foundational pioneer of nuclear and atomic science.
