311の巨大地震後、東北沖には「S-net」という地震・津波観測網が整備されました。全長約5500キロ。今回も津波を検知しています。備えは進んでいます。しっかり生かして、高い場所に逃げて欲しい。 seafloor.bosai.go.jp/S-net/

Great opportunity for Canada and Mexico to expand their healthcare sectors to cater for 300m more people.
Giving infectious disease research a break, as promised by the MAHA agenda. Let's break down what exactly this Executive Order is *really* saying. Fortunately, I speak fluent anti-vax grifterese & can translate. whitehouse.gov/presidential-…

But executive row is different: those *very wealthy* people *do* believe their job is to kill people to save money, and get richer. Those people are *personally* to blame for the systemic problem. They are the ones who design and operate the system. 47/

It's the DOGE playbook. Plunder: take something that was carefully built up over generations and burn it to the ground, warming yourself in the pyre, leaving nothing behind but ash. It's what PE plunderers have been doing to the world's "advanced" economies since Reagan. 22/

Oh blimey. There it is. Libel lawsuits for all. NYT vs Sullivan has protected US journalism from crippling defamation suits. Trump made it clear he wanted it gone. Now one of acolytes is trying to make that happen
Trump megadonor Steve Wynn has filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to overturn the landmark 1964 decision in New York Times v. Sullivan, which protects the media's ability to aggressively cover public officials. supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/2…

Written in November 2024. So sad to see people falling for these tactics now. You still have a choice. You always have a choice in how you treat people. Full article: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p…

-- Niin tosiaan, raha. Talouselämä. Lienette havainneet, ettei työllisyyspolitiikka tuota tulosta? Talouspolitiikka on räätälöity syventämään taantumaa, muttei sillä ole mitään väliä, koska kyse on jo pitkään ollut ihan vain silkasta uskonasiasta. Päätä hakataan seinään, lujaa.

-- Otetaan eduskuntaan ja europarlamenttiin valitut "ulko- ja turvallisuuspolitiikan ammattilaiset" ensin. Yksikään heistä ei halunnut tajuta, millainen Trumpin presidenttikaden alku olisi, vaikka merkit olivat selvät. Toiveajattelua ja onttoja arvuutteluja kyllä piisasi.

Pointti: Iso peukku yleistajuistamiselle, siihen tarvitaan kuitenkin resursseja ja kannustimia. Arvostakaa tutkijoita, jotka sitä tekevät, älkää haukkuko, jos joku ei löydä aikaa tai ole erityisen hyvä yleistajuistamisessa. Se on vaativa taito! 10/10

I'm leaving, like most people. Not deleting my account here, though, nor locking it unless necessary. You can find me in the other place, same handle. Oh, and I'm using the service plugged below to migrate my account. You might find it convenient too.
Now hear me, everyone toiling in this dumpster fire for the benefit of Paypalpatine, the Muskovite and his Shit Lords: There's a service that migrates all the tweets you've ever made to Bluesky for a very reasonable fee, automatically backdating them. !! blueark.app/en-us/
