one man with a chatbot, and $3,000 just outperformed the entire pharmaceutical discovery pipeline.
we are going to cure so many diseases.
I dont think people realize how good things are going to get
I’m pissed, but mostly I’m just sad for the millions of people who will suffer because of what Republicans did today.
Many, if not most, are Trump voters. And most probably have no idea what this law will actually mean for them.
“Well, that’s what they voted for.“
“They should’ve known better.”
Sure, maybe. But the brunt of the pain will be felt by babies, kids, the elderly, the sick, the disabled, the poor, people who are barely making it, people who fled danger to save their children.
They don’t deserve this cruelty. No one does. Especially not in the richest country on Earth, where people with the most power just used it to make themselves even richer.
Donald Trump’s net worth has grown by $3 billion since January, but Republicans cared more about making him happy than they did about the people who sent them to Washington to make their lives better.
It should enrage all of us, but it should also motivate us to beat the everliving hell out of every last Republican politician in ‘26 and again ‘28.

Trump made a HISTORIC blunder during his speech while bragging he canceled $8 million in funding to turn Mice “transgender.”
The funding was for TRANSGENIC studies, where scientists introduce human disease cells like Alzheimer’s to study a cure. Unreal.
