Didn’t it ever occur to those GOP MOC who plotted insurrection for Jan 6, who encouraged it, who gave information about the Capitol and locations of people inside, that the mob might turn on them? That not all of the mob got the memo that those GOP MOC 2 were the “Good Patriots”?

A self-taught Irish schoolteacher wrote a book in 1854 that almost nobody read for 80 years, until a 21-year-old MIT student picked it up and realized it could be used to design every computer in human history.

His name was George Boole. The book is called An Investigation of the Laws of Thought.

Boole was born in 1815 in Lincoln, England. His family was poor. He left school at 16 to support them. He taught himself Latin, Greek, French, German, and Italian.

Then he taught himself mathematics. By 19 he had opened his own school. By 24 he was publishing original papers in the Cambridge Mathematical Journal, competing with men who had spent decades inside the best universities in Britain.

He never had a degree. He never had a mentor. In 1849, Queen's College in Cork hired him as a professor anyway.

In 1854, he published his masterwork. What he built inside it was something nobody had attempted before at this scale. He turned logic into algebra.

Before Boole, logic was philosophy. You argued in sentences. You reasoned in paragraphs. It was powerful and completely impossible to automate, because there was no formal system underneath it, just language.

Boole stripped it down to arithmetic. He showed that every act of human reasoning could be reduced to operations on two values. True or false. One or zero. AND, OR, NOT. If both conditions are true, the result is true. If neither is, the result is false. Every judgment a human mind makes, every decision, every deduction, could be written as an equation following those rules.

Logicians read it. They found it interesting. Engineers building machines had never heard of it.

For 83 years, the book sat there.

Then in 1937, a 21-year-old MIT master's student named Claude Shannon was working on a thesis about electrical relay circuits. Switches that could be open or closed. Current that either flowed or didn't.

He read Boole and understood something nobody had connected before.

An open switch is a zero. A closed switch is a one. A circuit with two switches in series only carries current when both are closed. That is AND. A circuit with two switches in parallel carries current when either is closed. That is OR. Shannon proved that every possible logical relationship Boole had described could be physically built using wire and switches.

That single insight is the foundation of every computer ever made.

After Shannon, chip designers stopped thinking about electricity and started thinking about logic. Every transistor on every processor running right now is implementing a Boolean operation. Every if-statement in every codebase is Boolean logic. Every database query using AND or OR. Every neural network threshold that fires or doesn't fire. All of it is running the algebra of a self-taught schoolteacher from Lincoln who died 160 years ago.

The strangest part is what happened to Boole at the end.

He was walking to class in November 1864 when he got caught in a rainstorm. He lectured for hours in wet clothes. He went home sick. His wife, Mary, believed in homeopathic medicine and thought the cure should mirror the cause. She wrapped him in wet sheets and poured cold water over him repeatedly.

He died a few days later. He was 49.

He never saw a transistor. He never saw a circuit. He never saw a single physical machine run a single one of his rules.

His book is in the public domain. Free to download. Most engineers use the word Boolean dozens of times a week. Almost none of them know who they are saying.

The man whose logic runs inside every phone, every server, and every AI model on Earth died soaking wet in a small Irish town, 83 years before anyone figured out what he had actually built.

“Do other people notice in their office environment everyone has a cough year round ? Just seems weird. They’re not sick, just have coughs. All the time. Always coughing and clearing throats.”

r/office has entered the chat with the most creative Covid avoidance you have possibly ever seen!

-Mom’s “year round cold” blamed on dad turning on the AC
-high blood pressure meds causing chronic coughing
-acid reflux
-“It could be the cheap perfume/cologne someone in the office is wearing.”
-“dryness in the air.”
-“dust allergy”
-mold
-the Covid “jabs”
-dirty buildings that have not been cleaned properly
-“post menopause sinus issues are more common now.”
-“With the expanding use of GLP-1s it's not that surprising. It's not talked about much, but developing a chronic cough is somewhat common.”
-“We all make jokes about how we are allergic to the office!”
-too much dairy in their diet

Lmao not one single person said the C word.
Really guys?
Cmon.
The phlegm is strong, but the Covid denial is stronger!!

Say what?

A 28-minute election analysis circulating online has sparked debate by suggesting that Kamala Harris may have won the 2024 U.S. presidential election and that Donald Trump's victory could warrant further examination.

The presentation was delivered by Nathan Taylor, Executive Director of Public Engagement for the Election Truth Alliance, who cited precinct-level heat maps, statistical models, and election data analysis to support his claims. According to Taylor, certain voting patterns observed in the election appeared different from trends typically expected in large-scale electoral data.

The analysis argues that elections often follow predictable statistical distributions when voter turnout is compared with candidate vote share. Taylor contends that some 2024 results displayed patterns that merit additional review and discussion.

The claims have generated significant attention online. Supporters say the findings deserve closer examination and independent analysis, while critics argue that statistical anomalies alone do not prove election misconduct and that extraordinary claims require strong, verifiable evidence.

At this time, the allegations remain disputed, and no official findings have concluded that the outcome of the 2024 election was altered by fraud or irregularities. The debate continues to highlight broader questions about election transparency, public trust, and the interpretation of complex voting data. #BreakingNews #CurrentEvents #DonaldTrump #USPolitics #GovernmentAccountability

🚨The WH held secret meetings in coordination with FBI and DOJ, that included everyone from Vance down to the Chief of Staff and KKKaroline Leavitt to protect Trump from the Epstein files. The criminal cover up is exposed. They must all be removed and prosecuted by law.

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: HORRIFYING! Epstein bombshell reveals that Trump allegedly had a "predilection for nipples" and abused one of the victims by "aggressively" flicking and sucking on them.

And it gets so much worse...

“They looked incredibly painful as they were red and swollen and I remember wincing when I looked at them,” Epstein victim Sarah Ransome wrote in an email to a journalist, referring to a victim named Jen who Trump allegedly preyed on.

Ransome claimed that Jen — who was a girl in Epstein’s sex-trafficking ring — had sex with Trump and he brutally abused her nipples. Ransome claimed to have seen the evidence firsthand on Jen's body.

The stomach-churning revelation was reported by Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan of the New York Times in reporting excerpted from their forthcoming book, “Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump.”

The reporters expose details of the private emergency meetings that Trump's inner circle held inside the White House to discuss damage control for their boss's worsening Epstein scandal. Some of them had "never heard of the nipple claim" when it was brought up, but others had a "passing familiarity with it."

One official said that it was "surreal" to be discussing nipples inside the White House Situation Room — the very same place where Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton oversaw the operation that killed Osama Bin Laden. Under Democrats, the room is used to keep Americans safe. Under Trump, it's used to keep us in the dark.

Ransome further claimed that she "possessed video footage of prominent men having sex with young girls in Epstein’s entourage." She later retracted the claims out of fear that she or her family might be harmed. Given the fact that there's a mountain of evidence suggesting that Epstein did not kill himself, she can hardly be blamed for her caution.

Try as they might, Republicans will not succeed at sweeping this scandal under the rug. The Epstein child-trafficking operation is the defining element of Trump's life. He can delay and obfuscate, but eventually Democrats will retake power and the floodgates will be opened wide. One of the first orders of business must be for the FBI to find Jen and interview her extensively. Then, the prosecutions can begin.

Please ❤️ and share to demand a full investigation when Democrats return to power!

Between September 2024 and February 2026, the federal government lost approximately 118,000 employees working in scientific fields.

The concern is not just the loss of jobs - the United States may be losing an entire generation of scientific capacity that took decades to build.

I find it so bizarre that people think it’s more important to be shielded from the thought of bad things than to be given the tools to deal with them.

The pandemic response has been all about shielding people from anxiety rather than protecting them from a harmful virus.

Bad news: many kids under 8 never received the original Wuhan #COVID vaccines. Their immunity was shaped mostly by Omicron infections. New data suggest the "Cicada" variant (BA.3.2.2), now re-emerging in several countries, may be particularly good at evading immune responses.

"Why are so many young people developing cancers once considered the purview of old age?
This question was prominent at two of the world’s largest cancer meetings this year, and hypotheses abounded. Ultra-processed foods, obesity, microbial toxins and agricultural chemicals were all considered. But a clear answer remained elusive..
the increase in diagnoses in young people reflects a worrying change in the rate at which those cancers occur.
Colorectal cancer is one of the clearest examples..
Uterine cancer and liver cancer diagnoses and deaths are rising in young women..
cancer deaths in people under the age of 50 remain a small percentage of overall cancer mortality.
But the higher risk of certain cancers in this generation compared with previous ones could persist into older ages, when overall cancer risk becomes much higher.."

I know that SARS-CoV-2 can accelerate this trend.

As I’ve always suspected: Genetic predisposition!

Your genes don’t just raise your risk,

🚨They could turn a past COVID-19 infection into a lifelong sentence of dangerous blood clotting!

➡️“COVID-19 acts as a long-term modifier of inherited thrombophilia phenotypes.”

➡️“Incorporating genetic profiling into post-COVID evaluation may enable precision identification of individuals at risk for persistent hypercoagulability.”

🤔Interesting Russian study!
