β€œI am somebody” shaped how millions of us saw ourselves as kids, including me. That message mattered. It still does.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientistβ€”because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

An excerpt from Sophie Gilbert’s review of the new Melania movie:

"Melania shows off her custom-made inauguration gown, stark white with black ribbons overlaying it, a dress that now looks unavoidably like the redacted Epstein files."

I really think that while the tag line on this movie poster is 100% accurate, it really is family- oriented!

Reform is basically a suburban petrol station's DVD bin of Tory politicians.

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Finding the reactions to this bleakly funny. Lads, the point isn’t that you are sending enough people to β€œwin”, because we in fact, can’t win. It is just to have a tripwire! If you are going β€œwhy not 13, like Germany?” you have not understood how bad things are.
