Now it is 2 Germans and one UK citizen that has been kidnapped by the US. This pattern is emerging and I believe it is so that the US can extort these countries to follow US bidding. Do not travel the the US, it is not safe.

The fact that the Australians, from the completely opposite side of the planet, are still considering joining the European coalition of the willing to confront Russia, speaks leagues about them and their moral strength.

As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address: Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.

this is the argument i tried to make to people about covid early on and they couldn’t understand it. i’m talking about people in complex polycule configurations with rules to keep themselves safe from STDs could (would?) not understand that the same rigor should be applied to covid.

Derangements in hemostasis can affect any organ system. But no other organ system has more effects on hemostasis than the liver. Liver dysfunction (LD) can result in deranged hemostasis with wide ranging implications. A #skeetorial. #liversky #hemesky 1/n

Hello! I’ve moved here from the other network, seeking a space with fewer bots and more real conversations. A bit about me: I’m love endothelial biology, bioinformatics, Lego, and baking. Looking forward to connecting with fellow researchers, hobbyists, and everyone passionate about their interests!

Greetings all, just moving here to meet & interact with like-minded people. Main professional interests are super-resolution (optical, electron & atomic force) microscopy to study cellular ultrastructure in physiology (liver mostly). Otherwise interested in fishing, fitness & the world esp. Ukraine.
