  5. Here’s hoping. The band aid that banning teenagers from Social media needs to be replaced by a proper fix for the problems engineered, cynically by Meta and others.

    Needless to say, our ‘governments’ will not be quick to act.

  12. 11 days ago Senator Joni Ernst posted an insincere walk-back on YouTube of her previous statement that “we are all going to die.” She #accused her audience of believing that humans will never face death. That is not the issue. The issue is her disregard for the well-being of all US residents and her disrespect for those who care about the #poor and the #needy.

    There is a big difference between dying a natural death and dying because you had no access to healthcare. These two situations are not equal. Ernst went on to compare concerns about bare minimum healthcare #Medicaid and value of a human life to believing in the #ToothFairy. Ernst’s true #cynical, disrespectful convictions were even more emphasized by her recommendation to believe in ‘her [supposed] Lord and savior, Jesus Christ’. Her attitude could not be more different from the historic Jesus in her disregard for the needy.

    I am so glad that Senator #Ernst revealed her true, hard heart and cynicism!

  13. innocence (n.) : a state of permanent optimism, such as believing that when UPS says a package will be delivered between 8am and noon, it will actually be delivered that day, or that when a company announces a change "to serve you better", that they actually intend to try to serve you better.

  14. Just found this gem on the arXiv. A calculation of the effects of a primordial black hole passing through a human body.

    "Unfortunately, it is easy to see that the effect of PBH collisions with the human population will always be negligible.".

    "UNFORTUNATELY". 😂😂😂

  15. The 'reallocation' of #HS2 money shows this Tory Govt at its #cynical worst. The greatest thing since sliced bread? no, the HS2 fiasco will hit the North 4 many many years. It's as if they are giving, when roads, rail etc have been crippled (e.g. dangerous potholes are a costly & dangerous Tory legacy). rb.gy/tdtalo
