On the 14th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act allow me a few minutes to highlight its importance, and to remind everyone what a danger the Republican Party is to our health
We really need to talk about what the word “patriot” really means…
Every race is important in this make it or break it year for American democracy, but there are certain races we really can’t sleep on. The Nevada Senate seat is one. We gotta help Jacky!

These Solar-Powered Carnivorous Flatworms Divide and Conquer | Deep Look

Tiny marine flatworms called acoels hunt for prey in coral reefs. They’re referred to as “plant-animals” because they’ve got a partnership with photosynthetic algae that live inside of them. But this acoel’s real superpower is its ability to regenerate any part of its body!

Researchers are studying a species of tiny marine flatworm called an acoel that has some surprisingly amazing abilities, despite being smaller than a grain of rice.

“They have two very obvious superpowers,” says Dania Nanes Sarfati, a researcher at Stanford University who studies acoels.

“They are able to regenerate any part of their body. And they also have a very intimate relationship with algae that they keep inside their bodies that they exchange energy and other nutrients with.

When you look at them, they just look like a little worm, but if you look inside you can see there’s this green photosynthetic algae that are living between the acoel cells.”

In addition to catching prey to eat, acoels will flatten themselves out in sunny spots so that their photosynthetic internal algae can absorb sunshine.

“It’s like they’re on vacation every day,” says Nanes Sarfati. — What are acoels? Acoels are a group of small, simple, soft-bodied flatworms that mostly live in marine environments.

Acoels lack a permanent but they do have a mouth that they use to eat prey. — What do acoels eat? Acoels eat tiny prey like planktonic plants and animals that float in the water. An acoel will expand its head like a net to engulf its prey and then jam its meal into its mouth. —

How do you pronounce acoel? Acoel is pronounced “a seal.”

Stephen Declares SCOTUS Unconstitutional | Biden Is Fit For Duty | Don Jr. Courts The Amish Vote

The Supreme Court is damaging its legacy and moral authority by delaying justice in Trump’s insurrection trial, President Biden passed his annual physical, and Donald Trump Jr. believes Amish voters could put his father back in office.

AI Trump …

PA Drag Story Hour Canceled After Emailed Threats, Two City Blocks Evacuated Over “Suspicious Package”

This is government by gang thuggery, or to call it what it is, terrorism.   And driven by religion.  This was again pushed as evil and child abuse by Libs of TikTok who as I recently have posted she is very proud of the violence she promotes.   She also is a rather stupid person who is overjoyed at the all the notoriety and attention she receives for stirring up hate and fear.   This is the attempt by the religious minority to take over the country, force the majority to live by their biblical doctrines / views, and rolling back all the civil rights gained by women, black people, and the LGBTQ+.  The US has never been and shouldn’t ever be a theocracy.  This country must not let bigotry and hate causing fear and targeting people for harm become a legitimate way to govern.  But again the haters win because the show was canceled denying the kids and parents who wanted it to lose out.  The haters are denying the freedom of others to enjoy themselves freely to enforce a religious view of morality on everyone.   We have to stop letting these events be canceled and the haters win.  If there was a bomb let the haters get blamed then found, charged, go to court, and …   Hugs.  Scottie


 

The Associated Press reports:

A scheduled “Drag Queen Story Hour” at a Pennsylvania library that had drawn opposition was canceled Saturday after a suspicious package was found in the building and two blocks were evacuated after threats were reported, authorities said.

Police evacuated the Lancaster Public Library after the package was found. A state police bomb squad later cleared the library, but police said “additional reported threats” were still being investigated. Residents of the block and another block nearby were told to evacuate, an order lifted several hours later.

A city spokesperson later said that a dog had alerted on the package and that the contents were later found to be “benign” but “subsequently, we received additional written threats via email.”

Lancaster Online reports:

 


Lissa Holland, the library’s executive director, said she felt “really sad, very disappointed and angry, that leaders of this county turned this into saving the children from the library and we are having to cancel this event because of safety threats.”

Though the library did not make the decision to cancel Saturday’s event, Holland said it was the right call during a brief interview under the overhang outside the Starbucks at 101 N. Queen St..

“Absolutely. It’s safety first, for everybody involved, For our storyteller, for the staff — and most important for the children that were going to be here and the families. I am saddened to the core” that the event had to be canceled, Holland said.

 

As usual, Libs of TikTok is behind this.

Terrorist.

It’s time to dive into Libs of Tik Tok personal life. There’s got to be skeletons in her closet that need to be expose.

It’s past time to ruin the Raichik CUNT–
by any means necessary.

How about her finances and tax returns. There has to be fraud there. She can’t Xitt from prison.

This is what those terrorists are demonizing. I don’t why we didn’t start protesting at churches every time a pedo was found, lost opportunity to show where the real threat to children was coming from.

Even truly religious people won’t protest churches, even their own when the ugly truth is revealed.

Dumb question: why did they called themselves Libs of TikTok when they’re anything but liberal?

I figure it’s a play on “People of Walmart” and other similar things – the pictures and profiles being posted are of the people the profile is against, not something they identify with.

 

What do you want her to call herself, Cunts for Christ?

They exist to Other.

It would be a bit of truth in advertising, you have to admit.

They thinks it’s a witty putdown.

Like “Let’s Go Brandon!”.

Makato is right. Her account started as something else and her career basically shifted because of the attention that was focused on her. There are several of these accounts on Twitter and what they do is collect other peoples posts from any social media–Reddit, Twitter, TikTok, Facebook, et cetera–and post it in their timeline. They have names like Whatever Posting Ls or something similar. LisbonTikTok (I like that typo and I’m keeping it) started posting stuff from TikTok.

Do you hate some group but don’t want to be bothered searching the Internet for things to hate and laugh at? Do you want reinforcement of your own biases? They’ve got you covered.

Same reason every fascist ironfisted christofascist law GQPs pass is a “freedom act”.

That’s called terrorism

Trump lifted the rock and the scum have all crawled out.

More Raichik shit. Library in Reading, Massachusetts just got a bomb threat, too.

She needs to be ended. Once upon a time, we had a CIA, didn’t we?

CIA FBI. The CIA is forbidden from running operations within the US, except for LSD experiments and selling crack and guns in red-lined neighborhoods.

That, then. How is this not a domestic terror threat? She got our leading childrens’ hospital shut down with her terrorism. Kids missed pedi chemo treatments.

 

She would claim this is a free speech thing and point out that she never actually tells people to do the terrible things they do. It’s a cop out of course because she gets her viewers enraged over BS. It would be like me saying, “Mr X is a terrible danger to society and someone should do something about him” and then when said person gets attacked and blames me I can say “I didn’t tell anyone to attack you!”

Enough, enough, enough! This is no way to maintain a society, permitting the sickest among us to call the shots by threats of violence. There must be stronger penalties for those bullies, those who terrify others with their threats, those who shut down the normal activities of society, those who cost thousands-to-millions of dollars for law enforcement and lost business. We must not allow them to make us all live in fear.

Is TikTok a threat to US national security?

This is about profit and which company gets it.  The data of every one of us is all over the internet.  I run several programs that block the invasive cookies and website to website movement I make across the internet.  Why?  No I am not doing anything wrong, I just feel if the businesses that build these huge databases about all of us should pay me for that information as they sell it to other companies at a huge profit to gain access to me for their adverts.  If you doubt that check your emails or ads on sites you visit and think how closely they compare to your web history.    It is incredible how much companies know about us … by my dogs that love gravy I recently went to a website and my ad blocker did not catch the advert for therapist for people abused as children, on a website totally not about that.  They could only have gotten my information on me being an abused child by combing my blog with WordPress’s permission, or from violating the policies of the survivor site I have shared my abuse on.  Either way it is not their right to have this information on me or use it to push me to a paid sponsor.  Face it people today we, each are the product, keeping us on each web page, the more clicks to the next story the better, that drives their advertisement dollars and the clicks add to what they can tell their bosses to keep them or to generate new shareholders to join.  The likes drive their income.  It is a sad place we are in.  I use two different anti tracker programs and one really good ad blocker program because I am not a number / cog for their sales divisions.   But still they somehow sometimes get through.  Hugs Scottie 

Many members of Congress who voted for the recent bill say tiktok is a threat and claim to have intel “we can’t see” but is it a danger? Research groups and congressman Jim Himes (the top Democrat on the intelligence committee) say it isn’t,

ALT RIGHT A.I.?

I am so tired right now having not slept last night, but I wanted to post this as I felt it was important.  This is a direct diversion of every search to the Republican agenda presenting in the best most convincing light.  Pushing project 2025.   So much for a neutral only the facts’ news AI media.  Seriously a bot designed to push pro-fundamentalist republican anti-choice regressive view points?  Is it deliberate? We people that love our democracy and progressive country better get engaged and vote, or we lose it all.  The wealthy owner class wants us to return to the guided age, when only businesses had a say, government had no power, and workers were slaves to be worked to death for profit.    Hugs.  Scottie

Microsoft’s A.I. bot copilot has been produced some strange results lately that make it seem like it may have been trained by alt right bros.

Liberal Redneck – Congress vs TikTok

So this is the second time I am writing this as the first time I lost everything due to … A sudden loss of internet and a dropping out of my entire comment on the video, which was against the government.   Ron asked me if I thought it was deliberate and I am not such a conspiracy theorist yet … but it was weird timing.  

The point I was making is he is correct that all our data is already collected by every social media, every news sites … if I don’t want to give a news site permission to all data on my computer or every other website I visit they block me.  It is why I don’t post from them.  And the same with one of my favorite news sources for in depth information, they demand others to register or pay with them, so I have stopped sharing them.  Any way I won’t retype all I wrote, my hands are sore and I have so much more to get to.  The video is here.  If you want to see through the political attempt to hold down the progressive youth vote watch the video.  Time moves on and societies progress.  Hugs.  Scottie
