Trump to read Bible verse from Oval Office after feud with Pope and deleted AI image | CNN Politics President Donald Trump will participate in a public Bible reading this week as the administration continues to integrate religion, particularly Christianity, into official business.

This is the religious equivalent of “lipstick on a pig” - “bible on a boar”.

Transfer to a naturalistic setting restructures fear responses in laboratory mice Zipple et al. show that transferring laboratory mice to naturalistic outdoor enclosures prevents and even reverses a canonical anxiety phenotype in rodents. The findings underscore the value of studyi...

"Although animals in natural environments accumulate a wide range of experiences that allow them to calibrate threat assessment, most behavioral studies of anxiety rely on laboratory animals housed in static, impoverished conditions."

Today is the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

A Common Raven perched on a rock, displaying its glossy black plumage with iridescent sheen, thick curved beak, shaggy throat feathers, and large dark claws against a soft blurred brown and pink background.

Crows remember human faces. For years. If you wrong one, it will tell other crows about you — and they'll harass you too. Even crows that never met you!

This is not just a bird. This is one of the most intelligent animals on the planet.

GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS time for another warriors play-in game i am not prepared but i will do it im going to kill myself al horford

I’m so mad. My mom is 80. She can’t see very well. One of the few joys she has in her life is watching basketball. But now, the playoffs are only available on Amazon Prime. She’s a state away, and I can’t explain to her how to watch. Nor does she have Amazon Prime. 1/

Our team received a report of intermittent app outages at about 11:40pm PDT on April 15, 2026. They worked through the night to mitigate a sophisticated Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack, which intensified throughout the day.

It's amazing to me that these color palettes are somehow aesthetically pleasing *to humans*. Why? Why don't any nudibranchs clash?

IT'S GAME DAY

Victor Orbán’s removal sends a timely signal.

Corrupt kleptocratic Christian nationalism was on the ballot in Hungary today — just as it will be on the ballots that Americans will cast in November.

It was repudiated abroad — may it be repudiated here in November (and beyond).

We’re all experiencing Budapest jealousy.

A WHOLE CIVILIZATION WILL DIE TONIGHT My son needs lunch, and I have to put his backpack together, but a whole civilization will die tonight, so I'm wondering if they've closed their schools. Like, a snow day, maybe, except instead of snow it's "keep your children home so if you die, you die together" — instead of "well open back up once the plows have cleared" it's "we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow, hold your babies tight." It's just "talk" I'm told, which I've been told before. "It's how the president makes his deals." But I've never heard anyone talk about other human beings this way, and I'm not certain I can look my son in the eyes if we all agree to stomach it one more time. A civilization will die tonight, but as I zip up his backpack and kiss him off to school I think: if this is what we call leadership then I'm not entirely sure ours isn't already dead. @michaelfdubois Mukad A QuBoy @michacifdubois

Yes. I’m here to say I actually agree with Tucker Carson.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

When the Democrats take Congress, they should introduce an omnibus bill to repeal everything this administration has done. They should call it the Total Reversal of Unnecessary Measures and Policies Act, a.k.a., the TRUMP Act, and watch to see whether the president can veto something with his name on it.
