has anyone else noticed both the Obamas and Harris/Emhoffs both wish each other happy birthday and declare their love for each other on this site and the other side gives us crickets? no? carry on then…
color me confused: yesterday, the other site suspended my account. at first, i thought it was a joke, but it was real. the reason given was my account had been hacked. fine, i justified its existence and appealed. today, had to change my password three times to sign on
???
heard something on NPR today which is going to drive gasoline prices up and totally destroy the gop’s chances in november…although this story is from the Associated Press: apnews.com/article/yemen-hou…

have been a type 1 diabetic since October 24, 1978. every time i have lab work done, lab reports my HbA1C as “abnormal” because my score is measured in relation to the entire population, rather than in relation to other diabetics (t1 and t2).
WHY?

I’m a chemist.
I need to say this - because it’s getting dangerous out there.
It’s called chemophobia.
And it’s turning scientifically illiterate panic into a personality trait.
People are now terrified of:
• “artificial chemicals”
• molecules made in a lab
• pesticides at parts-per-billion
• ingredients they can’t pronounce
Meanwhile they drink alcohol, inhale smoke, burn fuel, eat plant toxins and scroll on phones built entirely by chemistry.
The hypocrisy is unbelievable.
Chemistry is not some dark force attacking humanity.
Chemistry is:
• medicine
• fertilizers
• vaccines
• materials
• electronics
• clean water
• food preservation
• modern agriculture
• literally your own body
Without chemistry, modern civilization collapses frighteningly fast.
And yet social media has convinced millions of people that “chemical-free” is a meaningful scientific concept.
It isn’t.
And when fear replaces chemistry, people stop trusting:
• vaccines
• medicines
• food safety
• crop protection
• innovation itself
A scientifically illiterate society becomes easy to manipulate.
So yes - I will keep defending chemistry.
Because chemistry is not the enemy.
Chemistry is the reason most of us are alive long enough to complain about it.
Since March 2010, Congress has done very little to strengthen the ACA, despite claims that the plan needed work, and the right has tried to destroy it multiple times…when will SOMETHING change to make American healthcare better and more affordable????

This is Colonel Nicole Malachowski. A 21-year veteran of the Air Force, she is the first woman to fly with the Thunderbirds and flew 26 missions in Iraq. Trump has removed all mention of her from federal websites.
RETWEET if you stand with @RealMalachowski against Trump!

Sound up please. Meet Maj Gen Jeannie Leavitt. She was the FIRST EVERY female fighter pilot.
The women beating unqualified Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, has ordered the removal of every image of Maj Gen Leavitt removed from the Pentagon.
Can someone tell me how this spiteful misogynistic act helps in the defense of America? It simply makes America look small out of touch and frankly absurd. Let’s compare their military records shall we?
Pete Hegseth military service was unremarkable he served as an infantry officer in the Army National Guard. He deployed to Afghanistan, Iraq and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. His military awards include two Bronze Stars and two Army Commendation Medals
His final act of dishonor, beyond the assault of his partner, was to be forced to stand down from Veterans for Freedom and Concerned Veterans for America—in the face of serious allegations of financial mismanagement, sexual impropriety, and personal misconduct.
I didn’t have enough space to provide Maj Gen Leavitt’s achievements, so here’s a link.

Friends, let’s send a message to this piece of shit excuse for a man, by making this image go viral today, so Maj Gen Leavitt gets the message, she’s a hero to all of us.
