The better humans have gotten at making plastic, the... more challenging it has been to unmake it—especially the pieces too small to see. Long after plastic bottles and bags break down, they keep fragmenting into particles so tiny, conventional filtration can’t touch them. They drift through treatment plants and into waterways unimpeded. There, they enter the food chain, and ultimately the body, where they have been found in human organs and are increasingly linked to various diseases such as cancer. Enter nanobots. In a new study, researchers show that tiny magnetic machines made of cagelike materials can tumble through water, sweeping up nanoplastics via the same electrostatic attraction that makes a balloon cling to your hair.

Update on the water bottles left sitting in the... sun before being sold to Americans 3 days ager they are still cooking in the summer sun. This is where they are stored Reminder: Just one day of sitting in the sun releases thousands, to tens of thousands of additional microplastic particles - A 2024 study found an average of 240,000 plastic particles per liter in bottled water, with 90% being nanoplastics (smaller than 1 micrometer) and 10% microplastics (1-5 mm) - Heat accelerates plastic degradation, increasing chemical and microplastic leaching. - Higher temperatures break down chemical bonds in plastics, causing more microplastics to shed - Based on studies, a 1-liter PET bottle left in a hot car (e.g., 120-150°F) for a day could release thousands to tens of thousands of additional microplastic particles beyond the baseline 240,000 per liter, especially if exposed to sunlight or mechanically stressshow more

To those who claim they are bringing aid, gas,... food, and water into Gaza, know that gas entered only once — and after that, they fell silent, never mentioning it again. We have returned once more to fire and suffering, as if nothing had ever changed, and they did not honor the truce agreement as promised. It feels as though they wish to torment us even more — giving us a fleeting moment to taste life, only to tear it away from us by force. They cut off the essentials of survival, until we find ourselves longing again for the simplest of rights — water, medicine, warmth, and dignity.show more

“I DON’T NEED NO MAN”-Black American women This mentality... of not needing a man That has been said and installed In black girls/womens minds for decades now has plagued the community With single homes and boys that have to go to the army to learn discipline Do black women have a lot of good options in the black community dating wise?

BTW, for those wondering, the issue I talked about... earlier was with dbrand's Killswitch for Switch 2 grip. They are a sponsor of the channel. So people naturally have questions when they see videos like this (came from their reddit). Because I am NOT a normal customer, and instead being sponsored by them, I have the unique opportunity to talk to them directly about the issue. They just got back to me. Here is what I can share from our communication: "Yep, we’re definitely working on it. Ultimately, this is a manufacturing tolerance issue on the small lip that keeps the Joy-Con Grips attached to the Joy-Cons (some were a hair too thick). We’ve got a replacement program set up already, where anyone who is affected is able to email robotsdbrand.com with “July Joy-Cons” in the subject to be added to the list for replacement stock in July." So they are aware of it, and they did tell me they can replicate it with a small number of units from their run. I won't share the exact number of units that have this issue - it's quite tiny compared to their total manufacturing run - but they have confirmed there is a certain run of units that do indeed have this issue. They are offering free replacements to be shipped in July for those affected.show more

I found some more videos of the mailbox robbery... crew on TikTok. They have been hitting up multiple different locations throughout the city. I was speaking with someone last night, and they told me they dropped a check into a mailbox, and the check never made it to it's destination somehow the thieves were able to duplicate the check and write multiple checks and almost ended up wiping out his whole bank account. I can only imagine what these guys have been up tooshow more

You booked a moving company to help you move... to a new home. You agreed to their price and signed a contract with them. On the day of the move they arrive as promised and they pack up your belongings and load it up onto their truck. Then instead of taking them away to your destination, they take it to a warehouse. You call them and they said that it would be more money to take it to your property because it’s getting late. Essentially they are holding your belongings hostage, so what do you do now since you don’t have the extra money they want?show more

HAPPENING NOW: Massive U.S.-Israeli airstrikes ROCK Tehran, Iran, as... President Trump tells The Atlantic that the country’s new leadership wants to talk to him and he plans to do so. “They want to talk, and I have agreed to talk, so I will be talking to them. They should have done it sooner. They should have given what was very practical and easy to do sooner. They waited too long,” Trump told The Atlantic in a phone call from his Mar-a-Lago club shortly before 9:30 a.m. The Atlantic: “Asked whether his conversation with the Iranians would happen today or tomorrow, Trump responded, ‘I can’t tell you that.’ He noted that some of the Iranians involved in negotiations in recent weeks were no longer alive. ‘Most of those people are gone. Some of the people we were dealing with are gone, because that was a big—that was a big hit,’ he told me. ‘They should have done it sooner, Michael. They could have made a deal. They should’ve done it sooner. They played too cute.’”show more

There is a state park by me that closes... when the sun goes down for safety reasons. I always see people find a way in there to do what they need to do. No matter what they do mayor be add a gate or even have more law enforcement, there’s no stopping it. These people are sitting in their car. They see people walking in and out of the woods while they are sitting there eating and chatting. The people going in and out look so out of place, like they are in a zombie apocalypse. If I saw people just struggling in and out of the woods, looking dirty, no flashlights at all. I would think they are up to something. Especially for the hikers making their way back and hearing rumbling and voices I would be creeped out too.show more

I used to ask my New York friends Who... were living in nyc check to check With a 80- 100k a year salary Why not move down south Where you can make that 100k Really feel like 100k And you can have a home a yard And more luxuries And they loved nyc so much that even though it made logical sense to move They would rather struggle And say “I live in NYC” Than ball and say I live in “Charlotte, Savannah, Charleston” Which would give them a better quality of life It took me a while to realize that The big city is so much a part of their identity Even if its pricing them out and has them living next to mice It’s so much apart of them that if they can’t say “I live in nyc” to someone who doesn’t They would lose part of their whole identity I say all that to say Chicago people are the same wayshow more

Is there any real "due diligence" done by the... 🅰️people? All of their points seem empty, vague, and very handwavy, at least that's the feeling I get. It seems to be confirmed when it comes down to the facts, they try to apply that same vague speculatory mindset they use regarding Starlink, arriving at a conclusion that always seems to be wrong. How many guesses have been propagated as truth? How many small differences have been exaggerated so large that they become the very core of their position? Probably a lot, because the trend I see is to take a kernel of truth and cover it with heavy layers of lies and speculation. I like what ASTS is doing, but the community makes it pretty hard to know what's actually significant, and the truth is, it's pretty hard to tell until both constellations are built and delivering data to customers. The issue is that most of them likely have a huge amount of money riding on the company, so they'll take anything and go with it solely for the comfort factor.show more

I want you ALL to watch this video snippet... of YEEZY. Great analogy and description of all the beartards that remain. They're ABLE TO LONG and HAVE BEEN ABLE TO LONG with a very obvious bottom formed on BTC/majors, But because they can open a chart and SEE LOWER PRICES BELOW, They REFUSE TO BUY and instead short an entire rally up. They've been so concerned with "sniping the picobottom" that the idea of it has LEFT THEM SIDELINED. ~ Dr. Axius.show more

Today, I heard the most wonderful and uplifting thing.... Andrew Bragg gave a commitment to leave the Liberal Party if it dropped Net Zero and exited the Paris Accord. A treaty that should never have been signed. It is the shadowy figures behind Andrew Bragg, Alex Hawke and the rest of the useless Labor/Teal-“moderate”-left-faction of the Liberal Party that got the party and the country into this mess. They rolled Tony Abbott, who won a mandate, promising to scrap the carbon tax. They have betrayed that promise ever since. Our energy woes have been a long time coming. We didn’t just wake up one day in an energy poor and deindustrialised nation. We have been under sustained attack for decades, an attack that has been marshalled by the left of politics. They control Labor, they have ruined the Liberals and have overrun just about every institution in the country. It is why the business council, sounds the same as the Australia Institute, and they both sound the same as the Greens. We are a nation in a hole, and Bragg admitted as much in his interview on Insiders today. We really need more coal, because the energy transition is failing. It is worse than that, the transition has failed. It was a bad idea, just like the rest of Net Zero. Our predicament is the result of irresponsible governments across Australia. Labor and Liberal, both have set policies that destroyed coal as the backbone of our grid, as they duchessed the Green grifters around their respective states across Australia. They played along with whatever bad idea the Greens were spouting at the time. Close this facility, replace it with a windmill. No to nuclear. No to gas. Close it, shut it, and replace it with fantasy. Turnbull, Kean, Perrottet, Berejiklian, Andrews, Morrison Albanese, and all of the rest, on a unity ticket that flushed our energy future down the toilet. All because they were afraid to upset Greta Thunberg. Because they were afraid to upset a youth, that they allowed our institutions to indoctrinate into a cult of ignorance. The world is slowly pulling in a new direction. Because hard reality has chased down fantasy. They’re waking up to the monorail that is ‘green’ energy, and ripping out the tracks. The National Party spurred by One Nation have cottoned on, and the Liberals will be dragged into the modern era, kicking and screaming. There is no doubt that if they don’t drop the Net Zero cake, and all of the icing that goes with it, they will never be a party of government again. Which brings us back to Andrew Bragg. Australia would be better off if he was not pretending to oppose Labor from the Liberal benches. We need people in opposition that understand the problems we have as a nation, and how to solve them. Not people who have only ever worked in the industry of politics, sending happy snaps along the way. Bragg knows his only chance at a job in the red house is through the blue team. He knows that blue voters don’t prioritise action on climate. But he sits there wasting a space advocating against the things the people that vote for him want. So if he had any decency, he would go, today. Because with friends like Andrew Bragg, you don’t need enemies. I just want Australia back.show more

In the blink of an eye, time flies really... fast - Not only in the last few months but also since 2017... Fellow fighters have delivered excellent results by showing the West that we are the new Chinese who are a group of people opposed to the Communism and committed to promoting peace with other Nations. Remarkably, the knowledge and courage that everyone has put into action have been very professional and improving over time. The international community will soon witness a significant moment - The battle stage between the NFSC and CCP, which is coming ever closer. Everything will start with the congressional investigation into CCP No.1 Enemy, Mr. Miles Guo case, and it's going to be a long and deep process and people will realize that the most powerful Anti-CCP bill comes down to Mr. Miles Guo freedom, and it won't be long from now. The fact is CCP have used a massive amount of their moves to destroy the NFSC, which they can use as much as they want because Mr. Miles Guo is still able to step outside, regardless of the amount of cards they have tried and it will be much easier for him to counterattack against the CCP once they have wasted plenty of resources. Very soon, we will have the greatest opportunity to see the Anti-CCP plan a lot more detail that Mr. Miles Guo has been preparing for a very long time.show more

Like a stadium full of sports fans doing the... wave, neurons coordinate their electrical signals in rhythmic patterns that sweep across the cortex, the brain’s outermost layer. Recent studies in humans and animals have shown these patterns, called traveling waves, can take on complex shapes, among them a rotating spiral that has been observed during deep sleep, memory retrieval, and other brain processes. A new study has now captured the fast-spinning waves spanning whole brains, offering clues to how they’re organized and what they might do. Learn more: News from Scienceshow more

Part of the reason they wanted to develop reusable... rockets that can land is the Geophysical Event. Part of the elite wants to build a data center and a small hub on the Moon to preserve AI and, with it, all human knowledge. They can control the conditions on the Moon more easily than on Earth, which will be far more active and unpredictable during a geomagnetic excursion and increased cosmic radiation. They would have no rivals on the Moon, nor would the lucky survivors on Earth pose a threat to them there. That's why the Moon is important. It was used in the past as well, which is why there are monolithic structures on the Moon.show more

Today, I travelled for over 3 hours to Agona... Odoben in the Central Region to meet 5-year-old twins, Robert and Roberta. They have been abandoned by both parents and live with their grandmother, who is doing her best but simply does not have the means. They are currently not in school because of this, and even basic things like food and clothing are a struggle. I got to know about them through my friend Kelvin, and I just knew I had to show up for them. So today, we went to see them and began the process of enrolling them in school. We have made arrangements for their uniforms and learning materials to enable them to start school this month. It really does take one moment, and people choosing to care, to change the entire course of a child’s life for good. Robert and Roberta deserve a chance at a better future, and we are going to do everything we can to make sure they get it. ❤️show more

I understand what Russia wants to achieve with its... missile and drone strikes on Ukraine - namely, to destroy peaceful life and drive people into such a psychological state that they are ready to make any concessions just to end it all. However, such strikes have the opposite effect. They remind us that the war is ongoing and that it is not limited to the conflict in the east; they show that at any moment, a missile can take everything away from you. And the only way to prevent this from happening is to donate to the Armed Forces of Ukraine and to hate the Russians even more. I think we can cite examples from World War II, when Hitler's attacks on Great Britain did not break its confidence in the struggle. If the Russians aimed to cause a massive blackout, they failed, wasting dozens of missiles worth tens of millions. But we understand that strikes on oil refineries and other targets must continue! PS: These are small fragments from real life that I filmed. The video may not show it, but the shock wave was strong enough to cause quite intense emotions in me.show more

you know what i realized after today’s concert? the... six of them are all genuinely good singers. if only their songs were actually arranged to fit each of their vocal ranges and strengths, people would see it more clearly. for years, having most of the lines centered on one member limited the others’ opportunities to fully build confidence and showcase what they can do. but watching them perform songs that weren’t even originally made for them and still deliver so well? that says a lot. they didn’t just get through it—they made it their own. honestly, as a six-member group now, they feel more balanced and cohesive. you can see each member stepping up, filling in gaps, and growing into their roles with more presence and individuality. their vocals, stage presence, and teamwork all feel more solid. if anything, this just proves that enhypen’s future is secure. they’re evolving, adapting, and finally getting the space to show their full potential... and it’s only going to get better from here. 🤍show more

In the besieged Kurdish city of Kobani, which has... been under siege for 15 days, Kurdish mother filmed going to the front line? or street guard with their two children. When I asked why they were taking their kids, they said there was no option. The Turkish army, ISIS, Al-Qaeda, HTS, and the Syrian regime are all attacking from all sides. Everybody has had to defend the city and prevent them from entering. but those mother has kids they will stay inside city as street guards If they manage to break into the city, they will commit a massacre and kill every single person. as they committed genocide in Aleppo and Raqqa and Tabqa We have to defend the city no matter what. It has been more than 15 days. The Syrian regime, backed by Turkey, has cut off the water, electricity, internet, and phone service, forcing the city to completely surrender in all areas. #kobanishow more
