Scientists uncovered the nutrients bees were missing - Colonies surged 15-fold
A lab-made diet supercharged bee colonies and could help save our food supply.

Summary:
Scientists have developed a breakthrough "superfood" for honeybees by engineering yeast to produce the essential nutrients normally found in pollen. In controlled tri-als, colonies fed this specially designed diet produced up to 15 times more young, showing a dramatic boost in reproduction and overall health. As climate change and modern agriculture reduce the availability of natural pollen, this innovation could offer a practical way to support struggling bee populations.
Thank you University of Oxford! 🐝🌎

Late night thoughts, we are on the best timeline. This is focused mostly on the fossil fuel industry, and the adoption of renewable energy. I believe that shits his pants Drumpf has set us on a course of faster adoption of renewable energies because of the Oil War. 1/2

Early morning thoughts-
Quote from Steve Bannon, "we are going to have ice around the polls."
Joke in my head: we do need more ice around the poles to help slow global warming.

Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan.
Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

Scene from Star Wars, Andor season 2 - speech of Mon Mothma - “I believe we are in crisis. The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams at us the loudest.”
Godfrey of Ibelin: "Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth, always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless, and do no wrong. That is your Oath." - Kingdom of Heaven, Knights Oath

"We humans—as far as we know right now—are the only sentient beings in the cosmos.. In many ways, we are the universe made
physically aware of itself. And to me, this comes with an ethical imperative. Because if we don't learn about the universe we are made from, who will?" —Dr. Kelsey Johnson
🌌 Being the only organism (that we know of) with the ability to understand the universe comes with big responsibilities, says author and astronomer @profkelsey.bsky.social: buff.ly/nHZZY1I

What we need is a law of experts. Governments always need experts to help us process information And provide guided opinions. We need this to basically be a law that keeps people in place where they can't be fired by anyone that is politically appointed. IGNORE THE FALSE INFLATION NUMBERS.

Impartiality
: The Speaker acts as an unbiased investigator and narrator of a person's life.
Thorough Research
: They spend time interviewing people who knew the deceased to gather context and details about their life and decisions.
Honest Eulogy
: The core of the duty is to deliver a comprehensive and truthful speech that includes both the good and bad aspects of the person's life.
Community Understanding
: The ultimate goal is to help the surviving community understand the deceased's life, context, and choices.
No Justification
: The speech is not an apology but an honest attempt to understand and represent the person as they truly were.
I am currently thinking of Ender's Game and the role of the Speaker of the Dead. I found this summary of the role online.
