Nan Hauser was swimming to record whale footage when a male humpback charged and began aggressively nudging her. For roughly 10 minutes, the whale tucked her under its pectoral fin and pushed her across the water. The humpback even lifted her completely out of the water on its head. Hauser originally feared for her life until she spotted the massive tiger shark swimming nearby in an attack posture. The whale safely maneuvered Hauser all the way back to her research vessel.

Thank you, @DNIGabbard, for exposing U.S. funded biolabs around the world. The American people deserve the truth.
Today, I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine. In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what “research” is being conducted. odni.gov/index.php/newsroom/…

It’s the 40th anniversary of Back to School, which features one of the best meta jokes ever. Rodney Dangerfield hires Kurt Vonnegut to write a paper about Kurt Vonnegut… and Sally Kellerman gives it an F, saying the writer “doesn’t know the first thing about Kurt Vonnegut.”

And what have you built except class resentment and policies with a short expiration date . Good luck with that. NYC is a great city, you could choose to leave it that way or drive it into the ground.

The year is 1949. The Nobel Prize in Medicine has just gone to the man who invented the lobotomy. Your doctor suggests one for your sister, who has not been herself since the baby came. It is the most celebrated advance in psychiatry of the age, and he is simply current. By the time the prize curdles into an embarrassment, close to twenty thousand Americans have had the operation, and proportionally more here in Britain. The year is 1956. Lay the baby down on his front, the doctor says. So does the most trusted childcare book ever written, the one on every new mother's shelf. On his back he might choke, the reasoning goes. Millions obey. The advice holds for nearly thirty years, long after the evidence has quietly turned, and a generation of cot deaths is counted before anyone thinks to roll the babies over. The year is 1966. A bestselling book informs your wife that menopause is a disease, that she is, in the author's word, a castrate, and that a small daily pill will keep her youthful and tolerable to live with. Her doctor agrees. The drug becomes one of the most prescribed in the country. Nobody mentions that the author sat on the payroll of the company that made it. That detail surfaces decades later, in the same year the landmark trial is halted early for raising rates of breast cancer, stroke and clots. The year is 1979. Your ulcer is caused by stress and sharp food, the doctor explains. Calm down, drink milk, take the antacid that happens to be the best-selling medicine on earth. Two Australians are about to prove that most ulcers are caused by a bacterium and cured by a fortnight of antibiotics. The profession laughs. One of them eventually drinks a beaker of the stuff to settle the matter. The establishment takes the better part of twenty years to stop laughing. The Nobel lands in 2005. The year is 1985. Butter is dangerous, the doctor says. Switch to margarine, it is modern, it is heart-healthy, the experts are united. The spread he nudges you toward is loaded with trans fats, which the next decade will identify as the genuinely dangerous one, and which will eventually be banned outright. The butter goes quietly back in the fridge. No correction is ever printed at the volume of the original warning. The year is 1992. There is a pyramid on the surgery wall, and the very same one in your grandchild's classroom. Bread, cereal, rice and pasta form the broad virtuous base, up to eleven servings a day. Fat is exiled to the tiny tip. The chart was reportedly held back a year while the relevant industries had their say. It is wrong at the bottom and wrong at the top. Now it is today. Your doctor has new guidelines, new studies, a fresh consensus, delivered with precisely the steady confidence of every guideline above. He believes it, and he has good reason to. So did every doctor in this thread. None of them were villains. Each was sincere, most were kind, and all were certain, reading from a map that somebody else had drawn and handed them. That is the part worth sitting with. So when the man in the white coat tells you what to eat, what to fear, and what to swallow every morning for the rest of your life, you are allowed to ask. Who paid for the study. What the evidence says beneath the headline. What he was just as certain about thirty years ago, and where that advice sits now. Then make up your own mind. Call it scepticism, or call it whatever your grandmother called it when she ignored the advert, kept the butter where it was, and lived to ninety-one. It has outlasted every consensus on this list. It will outlast this one too.

Michael Caine and Vin Diesel met at a dinner party in the mid-1990s. Diesel was struggling and going through a difficult time. At the party, Caine hugged him and announced to the room, “This is my new son.” Their friendship has lasted for more than 30 years since.

They had to get the results first to calculate how many mail-in ballots Raman needed to “win” 2nd place and overtake Spencer, hence the lag. Obviously to all non-naïve. I miss the viral rants Scott Adams would have given us over this.

They really really want to move on to the "cooling off the mark" phase of this con game as soon as possible. The part where they convince the victims that it was kind of their own fault, they made mistakes, and anyway they should just move on. Better luck next time!

Hunter is doing the 🎶 WAP strategy - a scandal that wraps itself around 'empowerment', in this instance his narrative is recovery. - "your reaction is the scandal” Hunter also needs to occupy the Biden space in the public domain, and an emergent dynasty will charge into the power vacuum. Whether the story of Claudius hiding behind the curtains is true or not, he was still needed to house the sycophants, and it’s also a redemption story and had its heroes and villains Clinton’s used Chelsea and you may recall in the Podesta emails Doug band and others complained about her incompetence just as neera held CAP etc. Like Bud Light (that still hasnt recovered), the Biden regime needs to keep their product on the shelves. This is all the old stuff it’s been happening for thousands of years, but now we get to see it up close. Tucker et al will do the same shtik that did with Iraq war, covid and etc - a turnaround very quick. The left also needs Bunter because an ideology can't be coherent without being intolerant, so they make theirs comport with the rule while making Conservative “tolerant” using religion etc
Replying to @adamscrabble
Who would fund the rebrand? Is this the establishment deciding that it’s easier and cheaper to rebuild someone with name recognition rather than build someone from scratch? Is it a portfolio building exercise where they’ll try both?
