Funny how Haiti honoring the heroes who won its freedom is considered “political,” but celebrating other nations’ historical figures is called “heritage.”
The reported issue is that FIFA interpreted references to the Battle of Vertières and Haiti’s independence symbolism as political content under its regulations.
Haiti’s history isn’t politics. It’s history. 🇭🇹
32-0 on NBA THE RUN. This is 1000000% THE META LINEUP.
Spam steals with SGA, block 3s with Wemby, spam 3s on with Steph.
I mainly shoot with Steph but if I’m playing someone good you need to shoot 3s with everyone. And I only take 2s if the shot clock is about to expire, 3s win games.

10,000% RISE IN ALPHA-GAL SYNDROME DEMANDS IMMEDIATE FBI INVESTIGATION FOR POSSIBLE BIOTERRORISM:
1. Farmers reporting mysterious boxes of ticks and possible aircraft drops.
2. Peer-reviewed paper says it's “morally obligatory” to release GMO ticks that spread Alpha-Gal Syndrome.
3. Bill Gates is spending MILLIONS funding GMO tick technology.
4. Gates also funds lab-grown/fake meat that doesn’t contain alpha-gal.
5. The U.S. Army previously released 270,000+ ticks into the wild for bioweapons research.
Under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Black unemployment reached its lowest level ever recorded in history. Now under trump, our voting rights are under attack, he’s ordered museums to change the way they cover slavery, he orchestrated the largest mass firing of Black workers in history, and has drastically cut funding to HBCUs. He is leading and encouraging a war against our community.
I simply cannot believe I live in a timeline where journalists helped force the last president out of his reelection campaign for being too old, so the country put an unstable 79 year old who falls asleep constantly in office and none of the same journalists care at all.
It’s always wild watching white people find humor in Black pain being murdered by a police officer and begging for air is somehow comedy material. That wasn’t a random accident or harmless joke George Floyd died at the hands of law enforcement while people watched and did nothing. But somehow a white man can turn that into entertainment and everybody around him just laughs and giggle. Kevin sitting there kiking along like a good house slave it is exactly why people keep getting away with this behavior.
A 17-year-old in Iowa boiled beets in her chemistry class and turned them into stitches that change color when your wound gets infected. Her name is Dasia Taylor. It started as a science fair project.
She wanted a low-tech version of the "smart stitches" Tufts researchers built in 2016. Those used thread wired up with sensors and a tiny chip that pinged your phone if something went wrong. Cool, but useless without a phone or a hospital that can afford it.
Her version doesn't need any of that. Healthy skin is slightly acidic, like lemon juice but much milder. When bacteria grow in a wound, the chemistry flips and turns more like soap or baking soda.
Beet juice has a quirk. The same red pigment that stains your fingers when you cook it shifts color based on what it touches. Bright red on healthy skin. Dark purple on infected skin. The switch lines up with infection almost exactly.
She tested ten threads before finding a cotton-polyester blend that soaked up the dye and changed color within five minutes. That was the prototype.
Around 1 in 40 American surgeries end in an infection at the cut, costing hospitals more than $3 billion a year. In poorer countries the rate is closer to 1 in 9. In parts of Africa it's 1 in 6. In some Ethiopian hospitals, up to a quarter of surgery patients leave with an infection.
The whole game is catching it early. Spot it in time and antibiotics handle it. Miss the window and the patient is back on the operating table.
Dasia filed a patent in 2021 and started a medical device company called VariegateHealth in 2022. The stitches haven't been tested on real patients yet. New medical device patents can take a decade. She's also looking into a side benefit: the beet pigment kills bugs like E. coli and Klebsiella in lab tests.
Smart stitches need a phone to read them. Hers just need eyes.
