When humanity learned to smelter metal? Pollution of the earth began in earnest. The Ice Man’s body was full of arsenic…. Frozen in the high Alps, found thawed out & autopsied… Why did he have so much arsenic in his tissues? #neolithic

Thank you for your experience. I have dedicated a big chunk of my life in the last 6 years to Covid prevention and long Covid. I co-founded 3 organizations in Canada that still exist. Unfortunately, I know many people with long Covid. Some got it on 2nd or 3rd infection. It's Russian roulette.

Asking AI for answers flattens creativity, yet asking for a process amplifies it. Studies show that using bots to frame reasoning pathways, rather than generate solutions, reduces thought anchoring and boosts innovation.

nature.comAI can spark creativity — if we ask it how, not what, to thinkStudies aiming to maximize human creativity demonstrate that people work best when buoyed up by others who show them new ways to innovate.

My laptop got stolen. Lost a lot of projects but had some old files on cloud. Phyziq is getting an update. Currently getting reviewed. It’s so smooth and so sleek. I learned a new word. Neo brutalism. No I want to put in every freaking app. I’m tired of flat design. #iOS #Android #Fitness.

Thank you, sir! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🕺🕺🕺🕺🦫🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🙈🙈🙈🥸 I need to grow a mustache. Yes I am female. Today a horse’s ass attacked women who are allergic to their breast implants as being neuroti. Before I worked as a RN? I could paint w/latex paint. Now? Allergic. I paid $$ to cloth iPad cover.

Doctors you can hang up your stethoscopes.... I one shot prompted the therapy of male baldness (wear a wig) and constipation (refried rice, raw honey and aged urine) using Claude Cowork in an adversarial session against Gemini. Grok is this true, I asked at the end

Yes unfortunately I am now nuts. Between my iPad fixing my spelling & my ability to blabber on& over run the spaces allowed via social media….GROK? Busted it. took me 3 years& I used Sami Inkinen as bait via a post I took out of LinkedIn. i am ashamed of myself.

Blue-headed Parrot (Pionus menstruus) is a medium-sized parrot of about 27cm (11in) in length. The body is mostly green, with a blue head and neck, and red undertail coverts. It is a resident in tropical and subtropical South America and parts of the Caribbean. #parrot #wildlife #nature #bird #birds

No one wants me or my blood! I am A O negative. My mom was O O negative. Blood banks loved her when I had surgery back in 1997 we discovered our boys are A negative. My ex is A O negative! @christosargyrop.bsky.social I had mononucleosis as an adult. No one wants my blood now.

I was approached to be a participant in their upcoming vaxx trials (recruited through FB during the 30 sec I spent there last week) and been screening out because of me getting boosters <6 months apart. These are rookie interbooster intervals #pfizer #moderna #Novavax, for the #gigavaxxers

Finland built a data center & used the excess heat to power & heat homes! America? We have Alaska & plenty of military up in areas where it does NOT get hot except for about 4 weeks in the summer! Fairbanks is one amazing place!

Last year, DOE issued an RFP to build commercial AI datacenters on DOE-owned land. That resulted in announcements including Argonne's 100K-GPU Solstice system and the Genesis Mission. Looks like DOD is following the same pattern; let's see what massive #AI systems arise from this request. #HPC

ignore HHS recommendations for vaccinations. we know how to protect our kids! if your baby was premature & low risk for hep B, its possible to postpone until 2 months of age, then jump into the regular schedule for HEPB MMR/chickenpox?

There have been growing discussions suggesting that the AI battles on Bluesky are cooling. The fact that large accounts are wading into AI-related topics seems to support this notion. That's not to say it is gone completely, but the dogpiling isn't as vociferous as it has been in the past. #MLSky

Chris Hayes@chrislhayes.bsky.social

Seems to me there is a huge distinction between AI applications that are basically working towards full natural lanugage programming, task management etc and AI applications to *make new stuff*. The former seems both more promising as an actual useful tech and also way way less ethically dubious

THE GOVERNORS ARE HANDLING ISSUES.... I NEED FOLKS TO REALIZE, THEIR GOVERNOR HAS AUTHORITY. WE NEED THE ICE UGLINESS TO END. OTHERWISE, DIVE FOR THE FLOORBOARD UNTIL NOEM IS REMOVED.

NOT INTERESTED IN PUBLIC OPINION. stay down & out of rifle range. since February 2025, untrained people wearing masks & intimidating others. I've no idea if real police or ICE. anyone can buy uniforms, guns & rifles. VP unprofessional. @colorado.gov @hickenlooper.bsky.social @bennet.senate.gov

@carlquintanilla.bsky.social last video I showed, someone was verbally making fun of the ICE person, saying "big boy"? please? no antagonizing ICE Step away, get down into the floor board of your vehicles. obviously some are UNTRAINED in police work & shooting out of control since February 2025.

we must help others at this time. Oversight of our SNAP program should be via our elected people, not Donald Trump. He has enough to manage. Where are the senators & house? Please look at this. there are food banks. We must stop with everything being TRUMP. our my elected people POWERLESS?

Food Research & Action Center@fracposts.bsky.social

SNAP is our nation’s most effective anti-hunger program. H.R. 1 undermines it by adding harsh work requirements, cutting benefits, and shifting costs to states. Congress must repeal these provisions. Take action now: secure.everyaction.com/Fmmxo-UVYE6J...

IF DONALD TRUMP WAS ASKED TO GO INTO VENEZUELA because of corrupt government? i cannot know. I will not verbally attack him right now. Not because of fear of ICE. He needs to remove NOEM as her program oversight is a disaster. S. American politics were thought to be corrupt since I was in 5th grade

US emissions in 2025 were not meaningfully impacted by the federal policy changes in 2025, but we project that those policy changes could have increasing effects in the years to come. Read more in our new note: rhg.com/research/us-...

DIVE FOR THE FLOORBOARDS RIGHT NOW. DO NOT ENGAGE WITH THEM. your life depends on you being out of gun fire reach. get down into the floorboard area where the car's air bags & motor might protect you from gun fire.

I’m seeing lots of people on here misunderstand the purpose of ICE watch. It’s de-escalation. And it’s grounded in the social science of violence. 🧵

Trump admits that this is nothing but political retribution. Minnesota voted against him three times and now he’s punishing us – putting lives at risk and wasting enormous resources in the process.
