83 confirmed cases and 9 death of Bundibugyo strain of Ebolavirus in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). hundreds of suspected cases. Strain mortality is around 30-50%. This is spread by BODY FLUIDS. It is NOT airborne, so spread should be limited.

California is experiencing the largest deadly mushroom poisoning outbreak ever recorded in the United States.
Since November, at least 47 people have been poisoned by toxic mushrooms, resulting in 4 deaths and 4 liver transplants. Dozens more have been hospitalized. What has experts particularly alarmed is that the outbreak continues to grow well beyond the typical mushroom season.
The culprit is the death cap mushroom (Amanita phalloides), one of the most poisonous mushrooms on Earth. Just a piece the size of a sugar cube can be fatal.
Native to Europe, death caps were likely introduced to California in the 1930s via imported trees. They now grow widely near oak and pine trees across the state. These mushrooms contain powerful amatoxins that silently destroy the liver, kidneys, and digestive system. Symptoms are especially deceptive — victims often feel fine for up to 24 hours before sudden severe vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and organ failure set in.
The outbreak has been unusually widespread and persistent, affecting more than 10 counties in the San Francisco Bay Area and Central Coast. Entire families have been poisoned after sharing foraged mushrooms. Even more concerning, new cases are still emerging in May, months after the normal peak season in December and January.
“Nobody can remember a spring flush like this,” said Mike McCurdy of the Mycological Society of San Francisco.
Scientists are still investigating why the death caps are thriving so aggressively this year. Health officials also suspect some victims, particularly from immigrant communities, may have mistaken death caps for edible species familiar from their home countries.
This is a developing public health situation with a clear warning: when foraging in California, if in doubt, throw it out.

A Norwegian neuroscientist spent 20 years proving that the act of writing by hand changes the human brain in ways typing physically cannot, and almost nobody outside her field has read the paper.
Her name is Audrey van der Meer.
She runs a brain research lab in Trondheim, and the paper that closed the argument was published in 2024 in a journal called Frontiers in Psychology. The finding is brutal enough that it should have changed every classroom on Earth.
The experiment was simple. She recruited 36 university students and put each one in a cap with 256 sensors pressed against their scalp to record brain activity. Words flashed on a screen one at a time.
Sometimes the students wrote the word by hand on a touchscreen using a digital pen, and sometimes they typed the same word on a keyboard. Every neural response was recorded for the full five seconds the word stayed on screen.
Then her team looked at the part of the data most researchers had ignored for years, which is how different parts of the brain were communicating with each other during the task.
When the students wrote by hand, the brain lit up everywhere at once.
The regions responsible for memory, sensory integration, and the encoding of new information were all firing together in a coordinated pattern that spread across the entire cortex. The whole network was awake and connected.
When the same students typed the same word, that pattern collapsed almost completely.
Most of the brain went quiet, and the connections between regions that had been alive seconds earlier were nowhere to be found on the EEG.
Same word, same brain, same person, and two completely different neurological events.
The reason turned out to be something nobody had really paid attention to before her work. Writing by hand is not one motion but a sequence of thousands of tiny micro-movements coordinated with your eyes in real time, where each letter is a different shape that requires the brain to solve a slightly different spatial problem.
Your fingers, wrist, vision, and the parts of your brain that track position in space are all working together to produce one letter, then the next, then the next.
Typing throws all of that away. Every key on a keyboard requires the exact same finger motion regardless of which letter you are pressing, which means the brain has almost nothing to integrate and almost no problem to solve.
Van der Meer said it plainly in her interviews.
Pressing the same key with the same finger over and over does not stimulate the brain in any meaningful way, and she pointed out something that should scare every parent who handed their kid an iPad.
Children who learn to read and write on tablets often cannot tell letters like b and d apart, because they have never physically felt with their bodies what it takes to actually produce those letters on a page.
A decade before her, two researchers at Princeton ran the same fight using a completely different method and ended up at the same answer. Pam Mueller and Daniel Oppenheimer tested 327 students across three experiments, where half took notes on laptops with the internet disabled and half took notes by hand, before testing everyone on what they actually understood from the lectures they had watched.
The handwriting group won by a wide margin on every question that required real understanding rather than surface recall.
The reason was hiding in the transcripts of what the two groups had actually written down.
The laptop students typed almost word for word, capturing more total content but processing almost none of it as they went, while the handwriting students physically could not write fast enough to transcribe a lecture in real time, which forced them to listen carefully, decide what actually mattered, and put it in their own words on the page.
That single act of choosing what to keep was the learning itself, and the keyboard had quietly skipped the choosing and skipped the learning along with it.
Two studies. Two countries. Same answer.
Handwriting makes the brain work. Typing lets it coast.
Every note you have ever typed instead of written went into your brain through a thinner pipe. Every meeting, every book highlight, every idea you captured on your phone instead of on paper was processed at half depth.
You did not forget those things because your memory is bad. You forgot them because typing never woke the part of the brain that would have made them stick.
The fix is the thing your grandmother already knew.
Pick up a pen. Write the thing down. The slower road is the faster one.

If I’m reading this right, this makes sense. I’ve experienced huge reference hallucinations. AI “knows” the material (because it was given access to it for training), but can’t seem to find the reference, so it makes it up.
This is the real reason why your AI models hallucinate citations.
It’s to break traceability on training.
This is also why the AI models should work with Sci-Hub to rug pull all the parasitic journals.
Rest in peace @BillPoseyFL. Thank you for your years in Congress trying to expose the truth about the CDC vaccine+autism cover up. It’s been 12 years since you gave this speech- begging your colleagues to take action- and still Congress has done NOTHING but continue to take Big Vaccine Pharma lobbying dollars. What a shame you did not live long enough to see the truth finally be revealed.

Hantavirus is a zoonotic virus. It spreads (rarely) from rodents to humans. The Andes strain from South America that spread on the cruise ship is a rare exception of LIMITED spread among humans who are in extremely close contact and/or shedding large amounts of virus. #Hantavirüs
‼️Men - you'll want to see this.
Most men have never been told that the three months before conception may be one of the most consequential periods of their lives, and not just for fertility.
The epigenetic markers carried in sperm capture information about everything happening in a man's body at the time of conception. Chronic stress, unresolved trauma, irregular blood sugar, and environmental toxins all get written into the biological instructions passed to the child.
Studies of populations who survived major famines show that the metabolic adaptations fathers made under duress were passed down through generations, making descendants more prone to weight gain even in times of plenty. The same mechanism is at work with plastics, PFAS, and pesticides, which increase the epigenetic risk for diabetes, obesity, autoimmunity, and cancer in future children.
Dr. Ann Shippy's message to men is genuinely hopeful.
The choices made in that preconception window, sleep, exercise, clean nutrition, reducing toxic load, and addressing stress, have a measurable impact on the health of the child and potentially multiple generations beyond.
The athletic ability, the cognitive capacity, the immune resilience of that future child - fathers have more influence over those outcomes than anyone has told them.
Next week I’m holding a hearing with a whistleblower who will testify publicly about the COVID coverup.
Mark your calendars: Wednesday, May 13 at 10am.
The truth is coming.
