Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words. The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

Mary Shelley doesn't get enough credit for not only anticipating the silver-spooned narcissist techbro who recklessly creates technology without thinking through the consequences, but also for knowing that said techbro would be an absolutely terrible father.

There's something about the way men use LLMs that feel like those men at the strip club who believe that the dancers like them for their personality and wit. They just want a toy that makes them feel good.

This isn't the gotcha people think it is. These people view pedophilia as man on boy ONLY, they think having sex with young girls is based look at all the child marriage laws they are moving to push earlier, they want to execute gay men and transwomen (plus anyone they don't like) in public gallows.

Trump fumes at a reporter for asking him about Wall Street investors banking on the "TACO trade," which is that "Trump Always Chickens Out" with his tariff threats. "Don’t ever say what you said. That’s a nasty question... To me that’s the nastiest question!"

UnitedHealth secretly pressured nurses to change patients' records to include DNRs (Do Not Resuscitate) without their consent, so those patients would die instead of being saved with medical interventions that could cost UnitedHealth money. This is murder. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

A few folks sent me messages about some unusual pigeons that appeared on the show Andor. Thank you! They are real pigeons and not CGI. They belong to the group of breeds called Pouters or Croppers. Here’s an illustration of an English Pouter from my book A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching.

Cannot state how significant the limiting of rare earth exports by China is in terms of the ability for the US to manufacture technological solutions. China controls 90% of the rare earth supplies. Tesla, Lockheed Martin, Apple - all of these rely heavily on these minerals.

If trans people are working for you, make sure you find ways of supporting them. It was hard enough to make ends meet before. Now we are active political targets. Client relations will get sticky if you do not recognize the ways in which they can target and harass your employees.
