I want to leave the bird app, but I'm keeping my account to rage retweet COVID information because I'm so sick of people acting like it's over, thinking they're "fine" after 5 days, not retesting to see if they're negative, and then going out in public again without masks. The CDC needs to pay. And Delta Airlines. Assholes.
House Representative Collins says he's a NO on McCarthy; instead he wants to back a candidate with an America First agenda.
America First?

Not familiar with the differences between nuclear fission & fusion reactions? Check out some of the online stories from yesterday regarding the breakthrough in fission energy production. We're still many years away from scalable production, but this is awesome on many levels. Here's a quick primer on why the breakthrough in fusion is so potentially game changing.
1980 and I break the 50 song barrier for the first time and I break it BIG. This is the year we discovered The Pretenders, X, Squeeze, U2, The Cure, XTC and so much more. This is the year Video Killed the Radio Star and we lost John Lennon. The Jam, Peter Gabriel and The Clash all had breakthroughs, while The Police, Queen, Springsteen, REO Speedwagon, Motorhead and AC/DC and more would have career defining albums.
And so much more. Enjoy!
