All Life on Earth Today Descended From a Single Cell. Meet LUCA.
The clearest picture yet of our “last universal common ancestor” suggests it was a relatively complex organism living 4.2 billion years ago, a time long considered too harsh for life to flourish.
A very interesting article on how conservatives are more susceptible to political misperceptions #science #politics: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.abf1234
Wow. He lied. Who'd a thunk it?

Sen. Elizabeth Warren is demanding answers from the General Services Administration on the "serious consequences" of Trump's "unprecedented" refusal to complete required transition agreements.
No prior president-elect has refused to sign these agreements. That's why we have them. They're mandatory. No agreement - no oath on 1/20.
Laurence Tribe: "Not that anyone’s going to do anything about it, but it might be good to remember that, as an adjudicated oath-breaking insurrectionist, Trump is constitutionally disqualified under Sec. 3 of 14th Amendment from taking the oath as president on 1/20/25 unless 2/3 of both houses lift the disqualification."
comfort sakoma-fadugba, a dei specialist, went on a rant about 'woke culture' & how christianity is the most 'tolerant' religion.

what set this rant off? her son's school had a diwali celebration & this put in her mind that hinduism or some other 'less tolerant religion' could dominate 🇨🇦. fully ignoring that it's not about erasure of christianity but about making space for everyone else.
no 1 should have to explain this to a dei specialist.🙄
OH RITE I forgot to mention that I blocked a kinda big naut (who NEVER RESPONDS to comments, hint hint) yesterday (or was it today?) for posting fake shit.
Don't post fake shit.
REAL LIFE IS ALREADY BAD ENOUGH AS IT IS. And we have REAL EVIDENCE.
We don't need the fake shit here.
That's all, carry on.
Nancy Mace will be remembered as someone who was fixated on bathrooms.
Mace: “I’m not going to allow you or any other man to erase women, period. You’re not going to erase me or my rights. At all.”
No one is erasing women. Someone has got to keep women barefoot and pregnant. Mace thinks she is going to be Aunt Lydia, but a guy already has that role.
As for rights? LOL, she really hasn’t been paying attention, has she?

It’s a thing.
“In video games, breast physics or jiggle physics are a feature that makes a female character's breasts bounce when she moves, sometimes in an exaggerated or unnatural manner”
Creepy.
Border Czar says what?
“If you have a governor who says, ‘I’m not going to cooperate'...then federal funds should be slashed to that state, and I mean hugely so, so that the people of that state understand that the governor is the responsible party,”
Huh. I’m pretty sure CONGRESS allocates money, not the President.
So much dumb.

AS OF RIGHT NOW ON PEACOCK I'm watching an "SVU" episode that I've actually NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
Hargitay is undercover on an eco-terrorist beat (getting fucked with by fashy cops, no less) and Vincent Spano is her Fed handler?
Yeah, I'll continue to watch this. 🤓
Another movie poll!
Y'all ready?
Which is the best Pacino/DePalma?
"Scarface" or "Carlito's Way"?
Disagree.
Add parm and/or romano at the end. Definitely some fresh basil, maybe even a lemon slice or two.
Otherwise, still yummy.
Remember that ever Republican also supported Donald Trump’s run for office, despite being a criminal and having sexually assaulted a woman. THEN naming a pedophile to be AG.
Not. One. Republican. Said. He. Was. Unfit.
They are not heroes, they could have prevented Trump. But they chose him over the country.
They will NEVER do the right thing. They will complain and then do what Trump wants.
I used to be a nice boy, I used to cut the grass.
