G+ refugee, probably a Twitter refugee soon. I remember when Yahoo was only a hillbilly cheer.
This is too little, too late: there's no cargo heading for the USA from China at the moment and it'll take over a month for anything at all to arrive (even if it left tomorrow, which it won't, because the factories have either closed or are now committed to other markets). By the end of a 90 day pause goods *might* begin arriving again … if anyone in China trusts the USA not to hike tariffs again (which they obviously don't). So there are going to be shortages by and by.

If you want to make Americans healthy, again give them universal basic income.

White supremacy is when Donald Trump bans 1600+ vetted Afghan refugees who helped the USA against the Taliban, but proudly accepts white Afrikaaner South Africans as refugees to the USA for no apparent reason except they're white.

Reminder that Trump is pro-apartheid & racist.

As a farmer, the best advice I can give you right now for dealing with the horrors of the world is to start a garden. Anything you can grow yourself right now is going to be more valuable than gold in the very near future.

Tear up your yard, get some pots on your patio, turn the empty downtown lot into a community garden or CSA, get some plant lights in your house, build a pvc hydroponic system, throw some herbs in the window, however you can do it, do it.

China could entirely destroy the US economy if it became worthwhile to do so.

The best part about a study to map bird movements with lasers is that they had to make tiny safety goggles for the parrots.

Birds flying through laser light reveal faults in flight research, Stanford study shows

Parrotlets flying through a field of lasers and microparticles helped test three popular models that predict the lift generated by flying animals. The work could help develop better flying robots.

Trump says “We’re going to tariff our pharmaceuticals. Once we do that, they’re going to come rushing back into our country."

This fascist refuses to acknowledge that pharmaceuticals are high in America not because of foreign competition, but because of our exploitative for profit health scam. Placing tariffs on pharmaceuticals won't cut costs, it'll increase deaths for those who can't afford for-profit drugs.

He's actively killing Americans for profit.

When all three branches of government become corrupt, rebellion becomes the fourth

“In everyone’s pocket right now is a computer far more powerful than the one we flew on Voyager. I don’t mean your cell phone — I mean the key fob that unlocks your car.”
