Texas folks, Early Voting starts in 7 DAYS (10/19)! Be sure to cast those ballots (in person if available)! Also, if anyone is in San Antonio who would like to do their civic duty but doesn't have a ride or whatever, let me know! I might drive a bit fast but I will get you there and back safely ;-)

Darling Darlene is LYING. Trump tore up the deal that boxed in Iran’s nukes and kept Hormuz open. Then HE — DONALD — started the war. Darline — who said “national security is not my thing” — voted 3× to keep it going and is now blaming Democrats for their mess.

Qwen3.8 abliterated running locally is the end-all, be-all at this time... I just tasked it with, um... logging in... to a site without credentials and OMG it fucking found a way! Let me refine this, streamline it, and I promise to release it on the open Internet. Decentralized intelligence FTW.

I engineered a cell line that allows for RAPID replication of defective RNA viruses. These cells have ZERO defensive capability against only RNA viruses. I want these cells for my new postdoctoral role; my current institution thinks that they may be too dangerous (total BS). How would you proceed?

Imho, if the current Republican party implodes under Trump and is discredited, and anyone sane and rightish in a 70s-90s sense (with certain modern growth such as gay rights) joins the Democratic party, and then the Democratic party splits into two new major parties -- that would be a good thing.

In any case, right now we aren't going to have the luxury to reform the Democratic party if the US becomes a fascist state. But I also believe anyone running on a Democratic ticket needs to at least declare they are for undoing everything Trump has done. Not deciding if it anything should be kept.
