Besides full body ultrasound CT, just wait until solid-state nanopore sequencing reaches industrial maturity and we get cheap, abundant at-home DNA/RNA testing. You'll know exactly what's causing your cold, what kind of mold that is, which antiobiotic to take, what's wrong with your micriobiome... The future is gonna be great.
This is a wild result.
TikTok is somehow worse for people's mental health than Instagram is.
And messaging apps are generally *good* for all of those outcomes: they make friendships closer and they make people happier!
In principle, I am a fan of Congress being notified before a strike.
In practice, the Venezuela operation would have been impossible because the offices of so many members leak like a sieve. The odds of Madura getting tipped off by our own system approach 100%.
VP Harris... Respectfully, you guys did this to everyone from @joerogan to @jk_rowling - you cancelled comedians like @KevinHart4real , actors like @ginacarano , anchors like @sagesteele , scientists like @BrettWeinstein and @HeatherHeying, doctors like @SabinehazanMD , journalists like @AbigailShrier , athletes like @rileygaines you guys went after me for saying I didn't want Lizzo to get diabetes (still don't). You nailed anyone who said there are only two genders, for goodness sake. Instead of gaslighting people, just say, "This is shitty." Let's stop.
Barack Obama breaks his silence on Charlie Kirk’s assassination by blaming President Trump for fueling political violence and by declaring Charlie’s ideas “wrong":
“I will say that those extreme views were not in my White House. I wasn’t embracing them. I wasn’t empowering them. I wasn’t putting the weight of the United States government behind extremist views.”
“I didn’t know Charlie Kirk. I was generally aware of some of his ideas. I think those ideas were wrong.”
“I’ve noticed that there’s been some confusion, I think, around this lately, and frankly, coming from the White House and some of the other positions of authority that suggest, and I guess even before we had determined who the perpetrator of this evil act was, that somehow we’re going to identify an enemy, we’re going to suggest that somehow that enemy was at fault.”
Cardinal Dolan says he spent the past week studying Charlie Kirk’s life, and the more he learned, the more he saw him as a modern-day Saint Paul.
A fearless missionary, a passionate evangelist, and a true hero.
“When I heard the tragic news, I said, ‘I wonder who he was.’ And then all of a sudden, this overwhelming, this overwhelming sense of sorrow and kind of renewal.”
“And I thought, I gotta learn about this guy. And the more I learned about him, I thought, this guy's a modern day Saint Paul. He was a missionary, he's an evangelist, he's a hero.”
“He's one that knew what Jesus meant when he said, the truth will set you free. And to do it, Now, I understand he was pretty blunt and he was pretty direct. He didn't try to avoid any controversy. He didn't even try to avoid confrontation. The difference is the way, the mode, the style that he did it, always with respect.”
The extremes hollow out both virtues: grace without truth becomes permissiveness; obedience without compassion becomes cruelty.
Christ-like grace holds both together.
A charitable interpretation of the current political landscape in America is that generally speaking left-leaning folks prioritize “grace” but lack the necessary obedience in order to avoid idolizing tolerance of ALL (except perceived intolerance); and right-leaning folks prioritize obedience, but often lack the necessary grace in order to see people with Christ-like compassion.
This is quite true.
I was astonished to learn today that some people on the inside believe that “broad vaccine skepticism” (meaning people simply not getting their annual flu shot and COVID booster) is going to lead to breakout micro pandemics across the country and get RFK fired / boost pharma sales.
Astonished.
Every single media article about Sec Kennedy being “anti-vax” should note that the UK, Italy, Denmark, Sweeden, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Austria and nearly every other developed country DOES NOT recommend hep b at birth if mom is negative.
These articles should also note the decision of the CDC to remove the COVID vaccine from the universal schedule is in line with the recommendations of nearly every other developed country.
These are the two proof points that substantiate the deafening media bullhorn that @SecKennedy is anti-vax. It is journalistic negligence to not provide readers context that - based on their rubric - nearly every other country in the developed world is anti-vax.
Media activists are criminally robbing readers of vital context that these two decisions would put the U.S. squarely in the scientific mainstream.
The “anti-vax” narrative is like the Russian collusion hoax - a media fever dream that is based on complete fallacy (and quite literally derived from talking points created by the same Democratic activists).
Woke up this morning in SF to the sound of protesters yelling through a megaphone “STOP AI OR WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE”
I mean maybe?
But also kind of totally cool with Jesus coming back soon.
Brilliant.
Satan’s greatest lie in this epoch of American culture is that “tolerance is a virtue”.
Jesus wasn’t tolerant, he was truth. You can’t have love without truth.
Hi,I want to share our Catholic Church service this morning. I'm discouraged to hear that many are still afraid. Fr. John is not one to be silent, and Charlie Kirk has inspired me not to be silent and share. We are all Charlie Kirk now. Please watch the whole service if possible.
Catholics have to do a much better job of being warriors for our values. If we didn’t wake up after the Annunciation massacre and after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, we never will.
Wake. Up.
