“Are you the branch manager?”
“Yes I am, how can I help you?”
“I would like two branches, please.”
“How would you like that?”
“Two big sticks, four little sticks.”

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

Absolutely incredible.

NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.

Watch with sound on.

Where U.S. science has been hit hardest after Trump’s first year The Trump administration has slashed the number of grants from the National Institutes of Health, with far fewer focused on women, cancer and mental health.

Those of us doing research related to women’s health have been hit particularly hard by the govt’s sabotage of the NIH. I spoke to WaPo for this piece, as painful as it was to discuss the reality my lab is facing. www.washingtonpost.com/science/2026...

It’s infuriating when a woman comes forward about a man raping her in his hotel room after drinking and the response is “Why would she go to his room?” “Why would she drink with him?” This is Mike Pence logic. Women should be allowed to hang out with men without expecting they will be raped.

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

AOC: “This is a threat of genocide & merits removal from office. The President’s mental faculties are collapsing & cannot be trusted.

To every individual in the President’s chain of command: You have a duty to refuse illegal orders. That includes carrying out this threat”

This is in fact the "best" we can hope for at this moment.

A catastrophic past six weeks. 100% unnecessary. 100% one demented man's whim. 100% to the lasting shame of GOP quislings in Cabinet and Congress.

But every option other than letting Trump pretend he has "won" is (even) worse.

Three aura points for the Gucci-twinks touching grass,
Six-Seven for the short kings in their bases of stone,
Nine for the cheugy simps, they are so cooked,
One for the Dank Rizzler on his dank throne
In the Land of Mordor where that shit is sus, yo.

ICE Agents Detain Newlywed Spouse of Soldier Training to Deploy

ICE agents came to a military base and grabbed the newlywed wife of a soldier who's about to deploy.

The wife came to the U.S. as a toddler.

She has no criminal record.

None of this is how it used to work.

Two pictures of the pillsbury dough boy: once is on a purple background with the caption “he is risen! happy Easter!”, and the other is tan and brown, similar to a cracker, on a white background saying “he is not! Happy Passover!”

First I got excited, seeing he nearly touched 100. Then I got worried, seeing each pitch on the list slower than the last - is he hurt? Then I realized it was just sorted by velocity, so I'm back to excited. What a roller coaster of emotion!

Quick reminder that the US Congress can stop this anytime it wants to, and that it is the appropriate remedy for executive lawlessness.

Yeah, yeah. I know.

American religiosity has been in decline for some time, but the way some performatively religious people have accepted Trump will accelerate that decline significantly. It’s a mortal wound to the credibility of American evangelism.
