If you’re upset by a woman prophetically speaking truth to power, allow me to introduce you to Jesus’ mom: “God has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. God has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty.” -Luke 1:52-53

One of the most blatant forms of Christian hypocrisy in our time is Christians holding all the ordinary people we share this country with accountable to the most rigid moral standards while simultaneously holding their preferred politicians accountable to no standards at all.

Trump’s “vetting” method of picking people he sees on Fox News is alarming. A foreign adversary (e.g., Russia or China) could send intelligence agents to infiltrate Fox. Within a few months, those agents may be appointed to senior government positions. This can be a national security concern.

After further interrogations and suggestions (thank you for the thoughts everyone!)… In the spirit of the Turing Test, I propose the Cripslock Test: No system can be called AGI if that system cannot reliably determine whether or not it is spewing absolute bullshit. (Named for Sacharissa Cripslock)

My cats got a new toy for Christmas. I think Artemis likes it.

A grey shorthair tabby cat is playing with a squirrel shaped cat toy. The cat is balanced on her hind legs, and is holding the toy above her gaping mouth.

Which means, if bird flu infects a person who is also infected with a human flu, there's a a possibility that a new hybrid strain will be created, which could be extremely bad. One thing I really want is to not be the person that happens inside of. If that's how you feel too, get your flu shot!!!

The flu virus fucks... By which I mean, if two different strains of flu are present in a single animal, they can both infect one cell and when they repackage themselves, the result is a bunch of virus particles with shared elements from each viral genome.

just blurted out in class "yes, you have to cite where you got your info. in a world in which lying loudly is the only thing that seems to get rewarded, citing your sources is an act of resistance" and folks, I really believe that.
