Without the contributions of mathematician, Gladys Mae West, my husband would probably still be driving around a block somewhere. So to the haters, here’s to the women of science. FO with your racism & your misogyny. Here’s to #blackwomenofstem #celebratingwomen

A couple things…

The “conflict“ in Iran *IS* a war.
It is a war of choice.
It is warfare without conscious.
It was unprovoked.

And I’m sick and tired of people suggesting & implying the only tragedies herein are that US Service Members have died. The people of Iran are innocents in this conflict!

"Years ago, we tore up a nuclear peace deal w/Iran.
Months ago, we bombed Iran
& "obliterated" their nuke capabilities.
And now, we might just have to go to war with Iran
bc of their nuke capabilities."

THANK YOURadio 4! for your programme on M.E. this morning at 9.30am. I have watched my daughters life from 26 to almost 40 stolen from her by it. I care for her every day, she is housebound. An articulate talented lady who is a loss to society. So many are out there unseen and disbelieved. I see you

Dysautonomia, Coxiella, and ME/CFS Coxiella burnetii (the bacterium that causes Q fever) naturally infects farm animals, such as goats, sheep, and cows. In humans, it is suggested that it could contribute to post-infectious syndromes such as ME/CFS. According to researchers based in Serbia, dysautonomia (autonomic nervous system dysfunction) may play a role in chronic Coxiella-related disease. 
Methods: 100 participants (35 with ME/CFS) who demonstrated specific IgM antibodies to Coxiella burnetii, plus 56 healthy age- and sex-matched controls, were evaluated for autonomic function. 
Key finding: Dysautonomia was significantly more prevalent in the Coxiella group than in the control group. The researchers suggest "Coxiella burnetii infection may trigger persistent autonomic dysfunction, potentially contributing to the development of ME/CFS..."

Who thinks Epstein committed suicide?

Who thinks Virginia G. with children to care for committed suicide?

Who thinks the 19 YO in OK that reported rape by Trump and Epstein found with head blown off - suicide?

How many more?

Unredact the files and release them.

VOTE BLUE in next election.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

Most average working Americans abide by laws and norms. Most are kind and decent. But there is growing rot at the top of our system. And its stench can no longer be ignored. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-732
