October is #breastcancerawareness month. Did you know: Mary Claire King discovered the BRCA1 gene. In the 70s, she told people that one gene might be responsible for inherited breast cancer. No one believed her. In 1990, she found proof. It created a paradigm shift. It saved millions of lives.🧪

I never thought I would say this... but...America needs to build a big border wall and stay inside. The world doesn't need your stupid wars, your crazy politics, your obsession with money, and we certainly don't need your stupid abusive leader ruining everything from the World Cup to global trade.

Did you know molasses can be deadly? On January 15, 1919, a storage tank containing 2.3M gallons of molasses burst. The resulting wave of molasses, 25 ft high and travelling at 35 mph at its peak, rushed through the streets of Boston, killing 21 people and injuring another 150.

Determining sex is not simple. The lab test used for European Cup track & field competition in Kyiv in 1967 banned champion Polish sprinter Ewa Kłobukowska for not being female, despite passing the anatomical sex test a year before. A year later in 1968 she became pregnant and gave birth to a son.

Great movie. And the original B&W version was the best.

Such a beautiful voice. So many iconic songs. Happy Birthday Linda.

Before the World Cup, I had never heard of Cape Verde. After the World Cup, I will never forget it.

The USA only has a small window of opportunity to remove Trump from office. If he dies in office as President, never being held accountable for his many crimes, the country will never recover. Its democracy will never recover. The rule of law will never recover. Its reputation will never recover.

May you never be the reason why someone who loved to sing, doesn't anymore. Or why someone who dressed so uniquely, now wears plain clothing. Or why someone who always spoke so excitedly about their dreams, is now silent about them. Quote by Sharouk Mustafa Ibrahim

I'm with Carl. How about we change Bush's statement to "We must balance economic concerns with environmental realities.", unless of course someone has found another planet we can live on.

Most of the world is ruled by people who only care about monetising nature. They do not realise or care that we are part of it. Future generations will pay for this folly, and it may be sooner than we think given the rapacious greed of the current ruling classes. Man does not live by man alone.

A syndrome of the greasiest kind.

Donald Trump has done a lot of terrible things to this country over the last decade. But here’s what I think is most insidious of all: Trump has taught Americans that cruelty is strength, that resentment is identity, and that hating other people somehow makes you superior.

So Trump and his felonious family will never pay tax and get huge refunds based on whatever lies they tell...and no one can ever check if it's true or rein it in? What an absolute farce. The USA is rapidly becoming a failed state run by a crime family.

Imagine you're shrunk down to amoeba size & could observe a tiny plant root under the soil. The first thing you might notice is that the root isn't all plant cells. Both inside & outside the root are symbiotic fungal cells (grey in photo) in close association, working together. (🔬:Eye of Science)

...and appreciate them.

And small independent bookstores are even better!

It was entirely predictable. He was a conman and thief before he entered politics. Giving him the power of the presidency just removed any guard rails. Trump’s “presidency” is the biggest con in history. Half the country fell for it and over a third still haven’t figured it out yet. Gullible fools.

"The man who dies rich, dies disgraced. Wealth is not to feed our egos, but to feed the hungry. No man becomes rich unless he enriches others" Andrew Carnegie (who knew a thing or two about being wealthy)

It's only worth going back to the Moon if it makes us look properly again at Earth, and appreciate how beautiful, precious and fragile what we have here is. The most famous images from Apollo aren't about the Moon - they're pictures of Earth. We need to stop taking our home for granted.

It’s a very different experience for Canadians watching Trump with some perspective. This is not like term 1. That man has dementia and Americans appear to be in a state of paralysis while they let the mad King fuck the world over. No one will ever forgive this.

When Republicans and Media normalize this Cruel and Evil man, it can only be described as a Society in total moral decay. 8 Billion people around the World read this insanity each day and wonder what the fuck we're doing and how long his Spell over America will last. He is dangerous to the World.

If you know, you know....😂

This is your criminal government, Americans. A rogue bandit state stealing Venezuela's oil, massacring Iranian schoolgirls and now planning to "take" Cuba because Trump says "I can do anything I want with it." Patriotic Americans must end this madness.

We have guided missiles and misguided men. Martin Luther King, Jr

Republicans are the dumbest people on Earth. They are outraged when asked to wear a mask during a pandemic or be vaccinated against measles to protect themselves and their neighbours. But happily elect a corrupt rapist and pedophile, and silent when he starts a war. Yet they identify as Christians!

Cartoonists and comedians have such a wonderful way of cutting through all the noise to reveal the simple truth. This cartoon says all you need to know about politics and justice in the USA today.

None of us can afford to remain silent against the current insanity and corruption engulfing parts of the world. It will spread like a cancer if not stopped. We must get money out of politics and elect people with wisdom and good character. We know "The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil"

I love this line. Applicable in so many parts of the world, not just America.

One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office. Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.
