  2. I’ll give Jimmy and DamnCat a break.

    Saw this headline:

    Could we soon REVERSE death?
    Daily Mail | June 5, 2107 | Mia De Graaf

    Could we soon REVERSE death? US company to start trials ‘reawakening the dead’ in Latin America ‘in a few months’ – and this is how they’ll do it.

    All I can think of HITLER is how and HITLER why they are experimenting HITLER with this HITLER.

    • From the Daily Mail article:

      1) Harvest stem cells from the patient’s own blood, and inject this back into their body.

      2) Inject peptides into the patient’s spinal cord.

      3) Fifteen days of laser and median nerve stimulation – while monitoring the patients using MRI scans.

      Fifteen days of cellular stimulation? Meanwhile, the microbes that have already taken over are munching away on the remains…bacteria, fungi, viruses…

      There’s a reason why things are “irreversible” in nature. It’s not that they’re impossible, its that they’re astronomically unlikely.

  5. Here’s a good one:

    “Create Your Re-Education Camp On Your Own Dime” – Lawmakers Propose Defunding Evergreen College

    Republicans in the Washington State legislature have proposed a bill to revoke $24 million in annual state funding for Evergreen State College after social justice warriors effectively shut down the school’s campus for two weeks after a faculty member objected to a planned demonstration that asked all white students and staff to leave campus for a day, as Campus Reform reported.

    Protests erupted late last month after biology professor Bret Weinstein sent an email to his colleagues arguing that the planned “day of absence” protest was itself a “form of oppression.”

    The email was eventually published in the student newspaper, angering snowflakes on campus… (emphasis: mine)

  7. Today’s most important anniversary is, of course, D-Day. My father was among those who stormed Omaha Beach. No birthday can stand up to the anniversary of D-Day; however, it is worthy of note that Nathan Hale, the American soldier and spy during the Revolutionary war who said before he was executed, “I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country,” was born June 6, 1755. Never forget.
