NGL: Yoshi P getting on main and saying Black people can't be in FF XVI because of "historical accuracy" has me very not interested in this trailer.

My dude you said I don't belong there so why the fuck would I give you my money? #GamesAwards2022 #gaming #blackmastodon #BlackMastadon

On his final show, Trevor Noah thanks his fans with special thanks to the Black women who have shaped his life.

"If you truly want to learn about America, talk to Black women because unlike everybody else, Black women can't afford to fuck around and find out."

Dude.

I'm at the Exoratorium. #Exploratorium.

Slightly schnockered. Geeking out.
I asked a volcano scientist lots of stupid questions. I learned what a caldera us. Is.

This is amazing. I love it.

Every social movement & every culture can be judged by the behavior of the people in it.

A constant struggle for group organizers & leaders is managing group norms of behavior. It is our own responsibility to create & maintain our values.

I believe in justice & won't look away.

'It’s this kind of libertarianism—the you-do-you ethos of American culture that sees the “public” in public health as anathema, clinging to a medical model of private risk and private cures—that dropped us down to the 40s in global life expectancy rankings before the pandemic, and will land us below the 60s by 2040. “Give me liberty and give me death” is the reigning mantra of America today.'

Really cool work in by Annika Frede, Eduardo Villablanca et al. using a mouse DSS model of intestinal damage

"Although neutrophils and monocytes expanded transiently during the inflammatory process, B cells continued to expand during the recovery phase, becoming the most dominant cell type within the colon LP. Using flow cytometry, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), immunofluorescence, and RNAscope, we identified an interferon (IFN)-induced B cell subtype that accumulates in damaged areas of the regenerating colon. B cell depletion (BCD) during the recovery phase enhanced tissue repair and a transcriptomic program associated with the extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. "

Wow it turns out that Elon Musk owning twitter and allowing all the nazis and shitheads back on has... driven a huge rise in hate speech! Couldn't have seen this one coming. theverge.com/2022/12/2/2348980

I'm really, really, really more than a little sick of non-Jews discussing the whole thing with Kanye et al and talking about how there's a "reemergence" of antisemitism .

Please allow me as someone who is Jewish to spell this out for you: antisemitism 100% has never, ever left. We deal with it on a regular basis. I actively avoid large amounts of the witch/pagan/occult communities due to it and stick to much smaller circles as a result.

Most synagogues actively hire armed security for services
