Pink said it then & it still hits today. 🎤🔥🇺🇸 Patriotism isn’t blind loyalty to a president, party or flag. It’s loving your country enough to speak up when it’s wrong & demanding equality, humanity & freedom for ALL Dissent isn’t unpatriotic. Silence isn’t patriotism #DissentIsPatriotic #SheShed

Pancreatic cancer is so tough. But in an early trial, 7 of 8 patients (87.5%) who responded to a personalized mRNA vaccine + immunotherapy are still alive 6 years after surgery. It's designed to train the immune system to fight remaining cells. Promising, and worth attention.

At your next meal, take a second to think about the people working long hours in HOT 100° temps to put food on your table. They're not just statistics. They're real people who can't avoid the heat in an air conditioned house or office. #WeFeedYou

"Last year, Microsoft made $101 billion in profits, got a $12.5 billion tax break from Trump & paid its CEO $96 million. This year, it's raising the price of an XBOX by $150 & eliminating 3,200 jobs. Please don't tell me corporate tax breaks create jobs. It never trickles down." - Sen Bernie Sanders

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Scientific American is 180 years old. The most eminent science magazine for the general public. And today, sold off as scrap to stop the staff from unionizing. Many top editors I've worked with for a decade on several articles have been fired. What a disgrace @sciam.bsky.social

Thomas Massie says the conspiracy theorists were right about Section 224 of the NDAA, which he says will merge the US military with the IDF. Massie says the provision is treasonous and warns that it will force the US to compromise its own security for Netanyahu's demands.

. Too many people still believe what Trump tells them. Too many politicians pretend to believe what Trump says. The Republican party is built on outright lies. Which means the USA is now just built on outright lies. This fantasy post truth situation will destroy a once great nation. .
