Scientists have created one of the most detailed 3D reconstructions of a human cell (eukaryotic cell) ever produced.

This groundbreaking model, often termed a "Cellular Landscape Cross-Section Through a Eukaryotic Cell," combines data from X-ray tomography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and cryo-electron microscopy to map molecular structures in extreme detail.

What makes Alex Honnold neurologically extraordinary is that his brain generates far less of fear. When neuroscientists studied him using functional MRI (fMRI), they found that his amygdala showed remarkably low activation even when exposed to scary images

Extremely resilient, it can survive decades without food or water and are the only known animal that can survive in direct exposure in space.

🫀 The heart doesn’t start beating the way we thought it did.

There is no single “starter switch” for the first heartbeat.

Recently, scientists captured the exact moment a developing heart goes from complete silence to rhythm, and it happens as a sudden collective event.

Instead of a pre-built pacemaker turning on, many heart cells slowly become electrically active. When enough of them cross a critical threshold, the entire tissue synchronizes at once—producing the first coordinated beat.

The earliest heartbeats are irregular, but they already spread across the heart, driven by calcium-based electrical signals.

The heartbeat begins as a system-level phase transition, one of the clearest examples of emergence in living tissue.

Based on research published in Nature (Jia et al., 2023).

🇨🇳 TESLA MODEL Y FALLS OFF 800-METER CLIFF IN CHINA... DRIVER WALKS AWAY

This is absolutely insane.

A Tesla Model Y plunged off an approximately 800-meter cliff in China, tumbling down a mountainside.

The vehicle was completely destroyed, windows shattered, body mangled beyond recognition.

But the A- and B-pillars held.

The passenger cabin didn't collapse.

The battery didn't ignite.

The driver suffered only minor injuries.

Rescue crews had to dismantle the wreckage to recover the vehicle.

Local reports are calling it a "miracle of survival."

This is what happens when a car is engineered with safety as a priority, not an afterthought.

Tesla's rigid structural design and low center of gravity from the battery placement aren't just marketing points.

They're the reason this driver is alive.

800 meters is over 2,600 feet.

That's not a fender bender.

That's falling off a mountain.

Most vehicles would have become a coffin.

The Model Y became a survival pod.

Released text messages show Charlie Kirk stating that Ben Shapiro tried to “kill” his and Candace Owens’ careers as they rose to prominence through Turning Point USA.

“The ben thing involves me more than he wants to admit… He knows Jon Snow is stronger as the dragons fly higher… And he is sending his incestuous brother to go try and kill us,” Charlie Kirk told Candace Owens. “His respect amongst movement fighters is quite low,” Kirk added.

This NBA/Mafia gambling bust is insane.

La Cosa Nostra, the Italian Mafia, were working with current and former NBA players to rig unders on prop bets and had a poker operation with x-ray tables, rigged shuffling machines, and more.

Was getting a Diet Dr. Pepper at Sheetz. Didn’t realize a man was waiting at the soda fountain behind me, so I said “Oh, I’m sorry,” & he replied “Honey, you never have to apologize for visiting The Doctor��� & it does sort of feel like I encountered God in disguise.

Two @Tesla Semi drivers after their experience with the truck:

• Tom Sterbra (37 years of experience): "I do not want to go back to a gas truck. I'd like to retire in this vehicle. I just love driving it. I can have anywhere between 10-15 stop in a day. The navigation systems in these truck are just unbelievable. The clarity of the cameras are unbelievable."
• Michael Davis (40 years of experience): "They asked, 'Hey, who wants to drive this Semi?' I was a senior driver, and I said, 'Yeah, I will drive it, I want to drive it. I want to drive something new. It did not disappoint. It has a better turning radius than our two axles."

These Tesla Semis are operated by @Saia_Inc.

Autopilot & FSD Supervised safety data

In Q2 2025, we recorded one crash for every 6.69 million miles driven in which drivers were using Autopilot technology.

By comparison, the most recent data available from NHTSA & FHWA (from 2023) shows that in the United States there was an automobile crash approximately every 702,000 miles
