Henrietta Lacks is the reason we dont get polio anymore.
Henrietta Lacks is the reason in-vitro works
Henrietta Lacks is the reason there's an HPV vaccine, gene mapping, we know how cancer cells divide, AIDs is no longer a death sentence.
Henrietta Lacks cells were stolen from her
There are no “distractions.” Life doesn’t come at us one event at a time on a conveyor belt. The bad stuff happens all the time inflicted by the bad people. Anytime I hear someone say it’s a distraction, I want to point a laser pointer at a wall for them to get some cat exercise.
this is just who they are
they do bad things everywhere all the time because they are evil and stupid and constantly indulging their very worst impulses
there’s no twelve dimensional plan here
You can read the United States as easily as you can a Dick and Jane primer.
A crowd of people lined up in front of a cookie store for its grand opening.
Schmackerys in Hill Crest, San Diego.
Had a rough time so stepped out. Found myself at the grand opening of a cookie store. It’s a black woman owned business and the owner is positively beaming with joy. I hope she’s so successful 😍

When I think of Buzz/Woody yaoi.... I certainly don't jump to AH Thornwolf is the artist for that!
What a weird ask.
*kid just got. I'm tired and apparently can't type well.
Kid was just got her ADHD/Autism diagnosis. She's almost 8 and we've been struggling. I am so relieved that we have a diagnosis and can start supporting her and how her brain works better.
“MacArthur Park” songwriter Jimmy Webb congratulates Olympic gold medalist Alysia Liu, who skated to Donna Summer’s hit version of the song in her free skate. Laufey and PinkPantheress, whose songs Liu also skated to last week, have congratulated the Olympian as well.

this might sound controversial to some, but i think being an artist, writer, etc. should be a sustainable career
Americans waking up to news that Prince Andrew has been arrested for Epstein ties
The way I think about that article all the damn time.
I would have been crippled from birth and dead by 18 of appendicitis. I'll take modern medicine every day.
I have regrets every time I scroll Threads.
She likes Youtube videos with influencer kids (which I don't care for) and we end up talking about monetization, jobs, unpaid labor and all the other aspects that get twisted up in kids making content.
These are great ideas. We've been doing some of it with our kid. We've had to have conversations around white privilege and ICE because of the current climate, but also tackling the internet and the things a kid can stumble across.
Digital Drawing. In the centre, a thylacine/tasmanian tiger is depicted mid-run. Behind it are the silhouettes of thylacine bodies lined up in rows against a red background.

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit.

We found that Jeff Bezos paid *zero* taxes in 2007 and 2011.
In fact, he reported making so little in 2011 that he even claimed and received a $4,000 tax credit for his children.
This is how he did it (published 2021):
Every president from Nixon on released their tax returns, but Trump -- who insisted he would follow that custom -- repeatedly refused to do that. So finally they were leaked, showing he paid only $750 in 2016 and nothing in 2017.
He's now demanding all of us, who *did* pay our full taxes, pay him.
Few friends of mine were jokingly asking a British friend to "take us back" and I was over there going 'nah, we gotta figure our own shit out'. I love how succinctly you put it.
Liam himself is five goddamned years old and should be at home with an adult he trusts right now no matter who his parents are. It would not matter if they were literal criminal masterminds, Liam Ramos is a baby and babies do not belong in prison.
