Notice how it’s somehow the government’s job to legislate a few Bible verses on human sexuality over our entire country, but it’s suddenly “not the government’s job” when it comes to the +2,500 Bible verses calling for a generous use of wealth that prioritizes the poor.

This is a multi-billion dollar business

Dusty robotics just invented a new tool that every single construction company will end up buying

Just like a Roomba, it drives around, but it’s not cleaning, instead it’s printing the floor plan on to the slab.

So simple, so powerful

Don't leave AI to the STEM folks.

They are often far worse at getting AI to do stuff than those with a liberal arts or social science bent. LLMs are built from the vast corpus human expression, and knowing the history & obscure corners of human works lets you do far more with AI

Never ever, ever underestimate the power of the spoken word, the colossal power of humanity, empathy and compassion.

I want you to wait until you have a quiet 7 minutes to just close your eyes and just listen to this beautiful and profound Harvard graduation speech by Yurong ‘Luanna’ Jiang.

We are not born to hate or be cruel to others, we are taught it in a world that has lost its humanity. Yurong is living proof that we do not have to subjugate ourselves to national exceptionalism and isolationism.

WE CAN AND MUST DO MUCH BETTER.

The world is depending on us and in Yurong we have a champion for a new way forward if we can just reclaim our society from the malevolent forces holding the world hostage in this moment.

Formatting is tricky. Sometimes in Microsoft Word if you're trying to add an indent in one paragraph what can happen is it inserts citations to seven different studies that don't exist.

Love the graphic

My point seems to have hit home

[Justin Wolfers @JustinWolfers]

The President said of the U.S. economy: "We are a department store, and we set the price. I meet with the companies, and then I set a fair price, what I consider to be a fair price, and they can pay it, or they don't have to pay it."

And then... I lost it.

Remember iron lungs?

No?

That's because vaccines work

[Andrea C. Love, PhD @dr_andrealove]

Vaccine ingredients aren’t a mystery.

They’re documented to the nanogram.

If you want to change a BRAND of buffer, you need data showing it is the same as the previous one.

That’s how rigorous vaccine oversight is.

Senator Bennet might have just ended RFK Jr.'s chances of being nominated as HHS Secretary. Watch how he cuts through the BS and asks the tough questions.

THIS is how you do it.

BREAKING: The esteemed Virginia Theological Seminary releases a powerful statement supporting Bishop Mariann Budde after she called out Donald Trump to his face and became MAGA's Public Enemy #1.

This just poured fuel on the fire...

"We are proud of our alumna Bishop Marianne Budde for her faithfulness to the Biblical witness. To ask a President to be merciful is in the tradition of the prophets of the Hebrew Bible," the school's president Ian Markham president and dean wrote on Facebook.

"While the overwhelming response VTS has received about her sermon has been positive, we have also received various complaints about our work because of her training in our Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry programs," Markham continued.

"To be clear, we teach the Gospel as reflected in Holy Scripture. We support and stand alongside our Bishop alumna," he bluntly added.

This is the kind of courage that this moment in history demands. For daring to suggest that our so-called Christian president should show mercy and compassion, Bishop Budde has been inundated with hatred.

She stated that many Republicans now "wish me dead" thanks to her sermon at the National Cathedral and still she refuses to apologize or back down.

The Virginia Theological Seminary is the largest accredited Episcopal seminary in the United States and the second oldest. Donald Trump picked a fight with our nation's religious leaders. He's losing badly.

Please retweet and ❤️ if you also proudly support Bishop Budde's sermon — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

Trump's furious because as a Bishop, Budde can move as far she wants diagonally, but as a Russian pawn he can only move one square at a time.

[Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove @wilsonhartgrove]

If you think a bishop asking a President to show mercy to the vulnerable is radical, just wait til you read what Jesus says about how we should give to whoever asks or what Paul says about how we’re all called to put others above ourselves.

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have deeply, deeply misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

Robert F Kennedy Jr claims vaccines "did almost nothing to reduce mortalities from Infectious Diseases"

He actually claims that

Let's look at that.

Let's take for example - Diphtheria

Do you agree with him??
