On another note. Great insights

Fantastic review of new research by @erictopol.bsky.social showing link between microbiome & sweet tooth. Its all about the freefatty acid receptor FFar4 - this was lower in people with diabetes/High sugar preference & linked to decreased Bacteroides vulgatus which makes vit B (pantothenic acid) 🧪

The clearest sign of intellectual chemistry isn’t agreeing with someone. It’s enjoying your disagreements with them. Harmony is not the combination of identical sounds. It’s the pleasing arrangement of different tones, voices, or instruments. Creative tension makes beautiful music.

100% but let’s be honest, those in power would rather let this happen than to step in and step up to defend the people

Okay, so based on your pinned post, you would have done. I would suggest/urge others to do so as well. Lord knows what our press counts as newsworthy these days, but even if they are not doing their job, we still can do ours as citizens and constituents.

First question: have you telephoned and/or sent an email to your own members of Congress? Does not matter whether they are D, R, or indy - if you are their constituent, it is important that you do communicate to them.

Sorry but I don’t give a fuck about whether or not RFK Jr is seen as qualified by the government. He’s not and should be sent away and inform the American people about a very possible multi pandemic about to take place because that will level civilization. Sensationalism needs to be put on ice rn.

Media as a whole is covering Trump’s smokescreen of outrage. This is what they feel is more important and I’m personally offended by it. There is an unknown virus raging in the U.K. TB outbreak in Kansas a possible bio lab in Africa about to unleash Ebola while Avian flu is in full swing.

We need to mask up and take all precautions as we’re smart, educated, and informed enough to know how to protect ourselves. We can be the side that’s left if we decide to.

Like nurses and teachers, we’ve had an ATC shortage for quite a while. It’s an incredibly stressful and exacting job. We don’t do enough to incentivize it.

Shortly they'll find someone, anyone in this tragedy who is female, non-white and/or LGBT and we'll be hearing "woke made the plane crash" before people even have time to grieve.
