You gotta admit, their names sure are a cosmic coincidence.

No, you don't

A standing reminder: a small handful of Republicans in Congress could stop this chaos tomorrow. They simply choose not to.

In Davos, the world is watching an American president’s mind dissolve in real time.

The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

History will likely teach the US had more to lose by abandoning our European allies than it ever had to gain from Donald Trump

That there’s not a massive, credible, instant, bipartisan impeachment/25th Amendment move over these senseless and destructive Greenland threats is a sign of how broken our politics are β€” and especially how broken the Republican Party is.

Dear Greenlanders and Danes,

We're sorry. He's awful and we don't want this

Deepest Apologies,
The Citizens Of The United States

It is truly insane to me that our system has the means to end this insanity but the people who can effect it refuse to…even though we are now at a point where in cannot possibly be in their own interest to keep supporting this shitshow

Take some time alone or away from whatever is upsetting you and do whatever is soothing or healing for you. Make sure you eat well and get enough sleep. Hope you feel better soon.

70 years ago today my father took these photographs with his mother's camera. He was 13 years old at the time. This rescue operation led to the establishment of local rescue service ("EiΓ°is bjargingarfelag") which runs to this day.

Acetaminophen Use During Pregnancy and Children’s Risk of Autism, ADHD, and Intellectual Disability This nationwide cohort study with sibling control analysis examines the association of acetaminophen use during pregnancy with children’s risk of autism, ADHD, and intellectual disability.

The @washingtonpost.com story on Tylenol & autism leaves out a MAJOR 2.5M sibling-controlled study of children in Denmark, which "found no evidence that acetaminophen use during pregnancy was associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD or intellectual disability." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

πŸ’‰πŸ§΅PSA 🚨 We don’t know for sure but are very worried RFKJ’s ACIP is about to restrict access to RSV monoclonal immunization for babies (nirsevimab and clesrovimab). If your baby is eligible, get them vaccinated asap. RSV season starts late Oct-early Nov. See below for immunization recommendation info

The wild plum bushes where I live are loaded this year! I'm pitting and freezing them as fast as I can for winter smoothies.

I went out foraging for medicinal tea. Basswood/Linden flowers and leaves make a light, floral tea that's great for colds, fevers, and just feeling run-down. I collect it every June and dry it to use in the winter.

If you need to rewire a lamp or other household item, extension cords are readily available in all sorts of stores. Just cut off the plug end, strip the wire ends, and you're set. Doesn't fix the larger problem of local stores, but gets the job done. Match the gauge of the wire to the project.

This is important because every story you are seeing is paired with dozens β€” hundreds, likely β€” that you are not.

There will surely be follow-up litigation, but this is not something that is being stopped in advance. It's happening, and people are going to die because of it.

Kind of off-topic, but I read yesterday that Tesla is not allowing owners of the regular cybertrucks to trade them in. Anyone who bought one those dumpsters on wheels is stuck with it

Get any other shots you, or your kids, are due for. My family just all got our tetanus shots because we were due for them and are betting Brainworm Dude makes them illegal or unobtainable.

Cui bono? Who benefits? The new administration has done far more to advance the interests of our enemies than those of the US. The impact, objectives and beneficiaries are crystal clear. And yet, none of this is really even being raised or discussed by the media or the opposition.

I think this time around, they're not giving anyone anything, white or nonwhite. This is a 100% smash-and-grab and they want ALL the money. Whites/magas are in for a rude awakening.

I think Green's is based on Trump's plan for Gaza. Someone needs to get onto this Elon shit pronto

Fragments of blue, green, and brown glass and tile, worn smooth by the ocean. In the middle is a bright pink ceramic cylinder with a raised spiral pattern.

I have no idea what the pink spiral object is--it's made of ceramic and is pretty cool!

What could someone do, if they could just look at your credit card numbers, bank statements, social security number, or tax returns? Hmm
