Tea. Black, organic, bulk tea in a strainer with milk.
Yep!
Headline and subhead: U.S. Tomahawk Hit Naval Base Beside Iranian School, Video Shows The evidence contradicts President Trump’s claim that Iran was responsible for a strike at the school that killed 175 people, most of them children.
Good for the hed/dek writers at @nytimes.com just now:
Not "appears to contradict" or "is at odds with" or "may give rise to suspicions that."
Flat out: "Contradicts." "Video shows." About the US blowing up a school full of little girls.
And of course, terrible for the world.
Happy International Women’s Day! I’m honored to be part of a legacy of women who pushed forward together to achieve the impossible.
Today we celebrate the tenacity of those who made our progress possible, and the resolve it will take to create a better world for our children.

Oops, forgot to add alt text for the vision impaired, this is a full color photo on a sunny day with blue sky of two young women smiling and holding up large protest signs along a roadside. The signs say "Flip me off if you love pedophiles."
Clever sign for the few drivers that do give us the middle finger when we're out protesting. From @roberthubbell.skystack.xyz for 8 March 2026
The total incompetence continues.
So true!
Peter Doocy of Fox News asked Trump "It sounds like the Russians are helping Iran target and attack Americans now." Trump responded: "I have a lot of respect for you. You’ve always been very nice to me. What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We’re talking about something else."
A detailed digital composite image based on the 1947 historical photograph of geneticist Barbara McClintock. McClintock, with her characteristic short hair and round glasses, is seated at a microscope, using tweezers in a Petri dish. While based on the original photo distributed for her AAUW award, this image presents a significantly expanded and fictionalized laboratory environment. The simple wooden workbench is now densely populated with a vast, colorized collection of complex glassware, numerous amber-colored reagent bottles, intricate distillation columns, and botanical specimens relevant to maize cytogenetics, creating a rich, illustrative narrative of her "jumping gene" research context that was not present in the original photo. The expanded background shows complex vintage laboratory cabinetry. This image explicitly states it is a composite: a digital recreation where Seriously Scientific has taken the historical figure and placed them into an augmented, complex fictionalized environment. Based on original source from Smithsonian Institution Archives. Digital composite by Seriously Scientific.
Remembering Barbara McClintock on International Women's Day!
She discovered that genes aren't static, they can actually "jump" around on a chromosome.
Her discovery of transposons ("jumping genes") fundamentally changed how we understand evolution and the complexity of DNA! 🧬🌽

Trump has made billions from the presidency and he is now using the services for our military dead as an opportunity to sell his branded merchandise (the cap). He should not be wearing headwear of any kind at this moment, let alone something he sells on the internet. This is indecent.
Fox News is the Goebbels of the Turd Reich. It's all propaganda.
Wonderful! What a great experience.
The president wore a red tie and a baseball cap to a ceremony in honor of fallen soldiers.
"The woman’s central allegation, according to FBI summaries of her interviews with investigators, known as FBI 302s, is that Trump hit her after she bit his penis when he attempted to force her to perform oral sex."

March 6th, the day "The Dude"
Brilliant!
so clever and well done!
Full color photo of Pam Bondi at a hearing holding her index finger up to make a point. The photo is glued to a bright pink protest sign held with string around the neck of a protester. It captions the photo by saying "Just one more minute while I search for my basic decency."
Clever protest sign of 5 March 2026 from Bangor, Maine nicely captioning Pam Bondi needing a minute for search for some basic decency. They've been protesting weekly there for 15 months straight, says Robert B. Hubbell's substack. @roberthubbell.skystack.xyz
Typical small, black and white outdoor street sign with the wording "I don't normally brag about expensive trips but I went to the grocery store."
Funny protest sign outside a Boston restaurant 5 March 2026 as reported in Robert B. Hubbell's stubstack.
