The anatomical proximity and direct connection between the olfactory bulb and the orbital prefrontal cortex (OFC) make it a key neuroinvasion route for #COVID in the brain. In patients with #NeuroCovid, we observe thrombotic events, hypometabolism and atrophy in this region.
This should be a major story. 🚩
While Americans are debating who controls genetic data after the transfer of 23andMe’s DNA database through bankruptcy, watchdog groups are now seeking records about how ICE collects, stores, retains, and disposes of DNA samples.
These may be separate issues, but they point to the same question: who owns your genetic information, who can access it, and what safeguards exist once it enters a database?
Those questions deserve far more public scrutiny than they’re receiving.
Our statement on the UK government’s demand that all content on all devices sold or used in the country be scanned, on the presumption of nudity, using a dystopian combination of age verification and content scanning. This proposal will not safeguard children. It endangers us all.

#BREAKING: Velshi: “What if I told you this? The Trump administraction had ALREADY spent 50 TIMES that much in taxpayer money to build his ballroom? What if I told you Trump had already taken $50 billion out of the U.S. treasury and spent it, all as part of what looks very much like a pay to play scheme to finance his vanity project? And I’m not making this up, a brand new report from the government watchdog group Public Citizen looked into the private donors who are supposedly funding the Trump ballroom as a gift. Guess what their investigation found? ‘More than half of the publicly identified donors…have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more $50 billion during the past six months.’ The report also found that most of the same companies are also facing federal enforcement actions over alleged wrongdoing and that some have had such actions suspended by the Trump administration since the start of Trump’s second term.”🙄
This girl found out that the Albanian island that the Kushner’s are buying is registered in Amsterdam by Zvernic South Adriatic Development & it’s owned through a chain of Dutch Shell Companies & it’s managed by a trust office.They’re really trying to hide the owners names well.
And this is why we face a risk where authoritarian countries will be interested in expansion wars to simply get more women. Example: One of the possible reasons for the Russo-Ukrainian war. There is a PM written by a well known Surkov somewhere between 2009-2014 about the necessity to add more people to the Russian Federation of Slavic origin.
🧵 China’s population collapse is now mathematically irreversible.
There simply aren’t enough women left of childbearing age.
Even if the fertility rate magically returned to replacement level (2.1 children per woman) tomorrow, the country would still lose more than 40% of its population by 2100.
It won't. The real number is 75%. There's nothing like it in history. 🧵
Hm...serious question. Can the evolution of the SARS-COV-2 virus mean that when it infects already several times infected people, that it might not trigger the usual illness but that it just sorts of goes from "sort of healthy" to "feeling tired and somewhat with the flu" to "sudden serious condition" without much steps in between if the immune system is already damaged, exhausted or infected?
Vad behövs mer för att det skall vara attraktivt förutom ekonomiska regleringar, eller bättre stöd etc? Behövs något i den urbana planeringen tex? Europa kan ju erbjuda egentligen flera utvecklingscentra efter tycke och smak på olika sätt. Det är ju en tävling mot omvärlden, inte mellan EU länder.
Eurostat :
Die Anzahl "GESUNDER Lebensjahre" ist ein Indikator für chronische Schäden in einer Bevölkerung & ein Alarmwert für chronische Kosten
Schweden war darin führend- dann warfen sie ihre Bevölkerung immer wieder unter den Covid Bus
Ergebnis= -7,1 Jahre!!

Hey freedom lovers, liberals, pirates and copymists and also just usual normal people that don't want mass surveillance. We need to organize some sort of pushback against these moronic mass surveillance Big Brother tendencies that are trending right now. Who is behind these? What are the causes? Is it really just "protecting the children"? And why now and why the hurry?
Because it really looks suspicious.
At the same time the free alternative need a boost, financing and some sort of marketing. It needs to be easier to choose free, open source alternatives. And that needs attraction for the common user.
@naomibrockwell@signalapp@piratpartiet@echo_pbreyer@mullvadnet@GrapheneOS Perhaps a free information and Open Source and freedom of communication/privacy lobby is needed?
Le Canada veut forcer Signal, NordVPN et DuckDuckGo à surveiller leurs utilisateurs.
Signal répond : on préfère quitter le pays.
Ce n’est pas une loi canadienne anecdotique. Canada, Royaume-Uni, France : c’est le même modèle qui circule d’un gouvernement à l’autre.
Ils appellent ça “accès légal”. C’est une backdoor en vrai !

How about the other way around?
What if children had their own IDs and segments of social media made for children. And where the Digital ID expires when the child grows up and comes of age, and the individual is free to access or maybe even their accounts are transferred to the usual social media, but at that point the individual already has some experience of social media and navigating them. Only parents would also have access to the children's social media. (Implicitly it would be VERY suspicious if a grownup gets caught using a child ID on childrens social media for obvious reasons.)
This way we can skip the whole having ID's all over internet for everyone, and children can get their own enclosed gardens. That would be a lot more consistent if the actual reason for all these Digital IDs is about protecting children.
The Trump admin is trying to eliminate the Chemical Safety Board, which is a federal agency that investigates chemical disasters and exposes what corporations and regulators missed.
They have a small budget so it's not about cost-cutting. The agency's core objective is to protect workers, communities, and the environment by issuing specific safety recommendations.
Eliminating the CSB makes disasters easier to bury. If the Trump admin gets their wish, it'd mean fewer investigations after leaks, explosions, deaths, and mass injuries.
This affects every American, especially ones who live near a refinery, chemical plant, fertilizer facility, plastics complex, or industrial corridor.
Frågan jag ställer mig efter 20 år i rikspolitiken är inte om denna valrörelse blir den smutsigaste nånsin. För det vet vi redan att den blir. Frågan är HUR smutsig den kan bli.
Detta att val allt mer handlar om annat än sakpolitisk är faktiskt ett skäl till att jag tröttnat.
Intressant. Upplever helt subjektivt att även privata diskussioner går inte för mycket på dels hur något sägs, dels vilka värderingar den som har originalidén eller sade något har, vilket förtar rätt mycket från sakfrågan och kontexten som kanske är viktigast. Någon man inte gillar både politiskt eller på annat sätt kan fortfarande ha en viktig sakfråga.
Tyvärr skulle jag nog säga att det rör även arbetet, där det blivit allt viktigare att säga saker på rätt sätt framför själva sakinnehållet, vilket gör allt mer svårarbetat men främjar diverse karriärister. De har ju liksom rätt värderingar utåt utan att för den skulle ha något vettigt att komma med nödvändigtvis.

Btw, all those psychologists etc that try to psychologize Long Covid, do they even know how the various related biological mechanisms work? We who are CC, have LC or are activists and allies have at least read up and try to educate each other on how it works.
One thing that is noticeable as CC when people around you continue to get reinfected is that systems thinking is slipping. Same for risk and consequence analysis. It is pretty sad and makes it harder to communicate with people. Also a lot of intelligent people that don't know biology or are very convinced about their intellectual superiority are hard to talk to because many seem convinced that their more societal analysis of the Covid-19 pandemic is correct, whilst totally missing the whole viral and biological part of it. And thus they are convinced that it is a cold, a hoax or even that it should be not cared about.
The CC/LC/etc need to try to expand the number of people that protect themselves, or we risk standing out and getting attacked for being normal.
