    Reasons Not to Use FLIXbus

    Here are reasons to reject FLIXbus, as well as its subsidiary, Greyhound.

    (Satire) People say that the company's name is actually FUXbus, but it took to writing the U strangely.

    Famine if Gazans kept isolated

    Describing the starvation that Israel is imposing on Gaza. *I asked a close colleague in the US who works in this area what would be the most comparable war situation. "Rwanda?" I asked. He responded that there was no previous conflict "that used bombing, snipers, starvation all at once with such intensity."*

    Let's not lose sight of where we want to end up.

    Let them suffer heat-stroke, FL

    Florida Republicans rushed to stop one county from setting requirements for companies to take steps to protect their workers from getting sick from excessive heat. Even requirements to post advice on how to cope with dangerous heat will soon be prohibited by the Florida Republican work-them-to-death party.

    9:20a
    Aid to Gaza by sea

    The EU will shortly deliver aid to Gaza by sea.

    Biden has announced a US plan to do something similar, but it will require weeks of preparation before it can start.

    Let's not lose sight of where we want to end up.

    Let the immigrants suffer, PAN

    *Panama orders MSF to stop treating people who crossed DariƩn Gap.* That will mean much less resources available there to treat them. In effect, Panama is deciding to let them die if they get sick or injured.

    The article does not state what motive Panama has given for this.

    9:20a
    Crimes against humanity, protesters, Iran

    A UN investigation *concludes regime murdered, imprisoned, tortured and raped those who protested the death of Mahsa Amini.*

    9:20a
    Biden's corporate tax reform

    Biden proposed in the State of the Union address to transfer lots of money from rich people and corporations to non-rich people.

    If Americans want this, they will need to reelect Biden and also boot out many plutocratists from Congress. May it happen thus!

    Biden also warned that US democracy is threatened, which it is, and called for legalizing abortion.

    Biden did not highlight protecting the climate, but I forgive that because he tried hard to go further. He was blocked by Republicans in Congress. For the US to do more, it is SCROTUS we must replace, not Biden.

    Mifepristone access, US

    Reviewing the current state of mifepristone access in the US.

    Misled on purpose: planned chaos

    Governor DeMentis has plunged Florida into disease threat by putting an antivax fanatic in charge of public health.

    Said lunatic was judged guilty of scientific fraud for fabricating evidence to discredit Covid-19 vaccines.

    When these anti-health measures produce chaos, Trump-pets call that success; their campaign to put their strongman in power is based on chaos.

    9:20a
    Brain modeling and complex systems

    *We all are the living manifestation of 13.7bn years of flukes.*
