"You encounter a strange, cult-like group that lives in almost total isolation from the outside world. They jealously guard their arcane knowledge and practice some exceedingly cruel rituals." buff.ly/oR5kV77

Obama is awesome 👇

"You’re serious? I need to dress up? Why? Please don’t tell me we’re going out. Are we going out? Please don’t tell me we’re going out." buff.ly/lzXrLVa

Forgotten how much I loved this song and video when I was a kid. Even better as an adult, especially after an edible

"Some women have health. Others, not so much. This is due to the varying fluoride levels in tap water." buff.ly/ycFDqJW

I know a fair number of people who cut off their parents and in every case it was something like this. "I'll put up with your idiotic bullshit so long as it doesn't directly threaten the lives of my friends and family" is a pretty fair standard imo

Hey #NMRChat! You’ll want to see this 60 Minutes segment on the impact of the current helium situation on science, industry, and national security. BONUS: Part was filmed in my lab at UChicago! They interviewed Biomolecular NMR’s Joe Sachleben in my photogenic chem NMR lab. #helium #realtimechem

Notes torn up.

"Faculty must maintain strict political neutrality at all times. Otherwise, we just risk becoming yet another frontline in the culture wars. We cannot pose yet another existential threat to the prevailing political order by discussing historical facts." buff.ly/hjUfwPr

"Someone just shouted "try unplugging it and plugging it back in." Fuck you."

“Oh, I’m gonna get you! Yes, I am! Yes, I am! Come to Daddy, you slippery little prince!” — Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Health and Human Services Secretary https://theonion.com/somersaulting-rfk-jr-excitedly-chases-own-penis-through-cabinet-meeting/

This is completely insane, like so many other things associated with the all-in AI cultists. Just because it can bang out ugly-but-usable code for you does not mean it’s about to be able to rewire your cells, you fools.

Well deserved 🏅 congratulations

"The Data Lord has all the money, so now we just pay with blood instead. It’s even easier, if you think about it. No need to worry about 'savings' or 'inflation' or whatever it is your generation was so obsessed with. Now it’s all about platelet count." buff.ly/DwVTmBG

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

When all these tradwife influencers start pivoting away from their alt-right branding in the next few years, never forget they were on this fascist bandwagon to line their pockets at the expense of every other woman in this country.

This should be good. MattyJ talking some Ni borylations

"The students barely helped clone our first pilot project, and when I showed them the piglets I CLONED from somatic cell nuclear transfer, they said the pigs looked “chopped” and asked if they could use the Y-Combinator Accelerator grant money to order them Jersey Mike’s." buff.ly/GjAux4M

We’re hiring in discovery chemistry! Come join our amazing team.

53 years ago, hip-hop was born at a back-to-school party in the Bronx. Now, the Bronx School of Hip Hop is preparing a new generation of artists to shape what comes next. I sat down with Nas to talk about the past, present, and future of hip-hop in NYC — from the turntables to our classrooms.

"I really like free speech. I love how I get to say anything I want, and it’s totally fine, no problem. I don’t like when you do that, though. I only like it when I do it, or when people do it the way I told them to do it. That’s when I really like free speech." buff.ly/grNcahK

The Trump administration tries - yet again - to get federal research research funding under its ideological control. Let’s defeat it like we did the last one!

Classic chemistry films... #chemsky @markhamillofficial.bsky.social

Took the family on a ride up the cog railway to the peak of Mount Washington. 157 year old line with a 117 year old steam engine. “Peak” fun and mild weather.

"We're the party of Lincoln. The party of small government and personal freedom. But the time has finally come to say this: when Grand Chancellor Trump demands that he be bathed in the blood of the impure, it concerns me. Look at how I’m frowning. You can tell I am concerned." buff.ly/mm4gN3K

Priceless

Grape nuts. Like eating gravel. My revenge was having it break my braces and parents having to pay to get them repaired.

Happy to help translate trump bullshit for you.

"Take staircases, for example. A person might be walking down a staircase, trip, and wham! Dead. It’s sad, but it happens. And if that can happen to one person, isn’t there a non-zero chance that it could happen to every human being on Earth in the next decade?" buff.ly/gxvK6pV

Oh #NYC how I miss you. (Credit WhatIsNewYork on insta)

This is absolute Dear Leader shit, the sort of nauseating stuff that the flunkies put together in the last years of a horrible personality cult. Let's bring back a country where demented bootlicking like this never appears again. Where it's foul and stupid and shameful.

7 a.m. I wake up and get stabbed. 8 a.m. I go to my corner bodega for a Bacon, Egg, and Cheese. On the way, I get mugged. 9 a.m. I get on the subway and immediately get murdered. buff.ly/puREmHa

oh boy

"Generic State has more students involved in Greek organizations than several current Dark Academia institutions have in their entire student body. We believe these more than fulfill the criteria regarding both violence and hedonism." www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/gen...
