It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.

They are in charge.

Peter Krykant has died aged only 48. His life was really important. He spoke truth to power and forced them into action- using his own time, his own money, his own pain. He saved lives.

If you'd never heard of him, honour his life by taking the time to find out.

America is complicit in the slaughter of the Palestinian people.

And we continue to provide U.S. military aid to Netanyahu.

Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development.

Yet, in the US, we have a very high rate of childhood poverty and a broken child care system.

Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care. Other states must follow.

Slow clap @partickthistle.bsky.social for putting this message on bluesky 20 mins before. None of previous 6 posts mention this, or ticket office site Wasted trip from other side of city and two devastated kids in a week they could have done without it. Shambolic.

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

Hippocampal encoding of memories in human infants Humans lack memories for specific events from the first few years of life. We investigated the mechanistic basis of this infantile amnesia by scanning the brains of awake infants with functional magne...

Why do we not remember being a baby? One idea is that the hippocampus, which is essential for episodic memory in adults, is too immature to form individual memories in infancy. We tested this using awake infant fMRI, new in @science.org #ScienceResearch www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Israel killed 174 Palestinian children over night, in just a few hours.

Over the past year & a half, Israel's genocide has killed tens of thousands of Palestinian children.

Not since the Rwandan genocide has anyone killed children at the rate Israel is murdering them.
