Mind-altering ‘brain weapons’ no longer only science fiction, say researchers

  • And scumbag # 2.

    Mr. Bach appeared in last week’s document dump, writing long and often technical emails to Mr. Epstein. In 2016, he wrote to Mr. Epstein that “black kids in the US have slower cognitive development,” and “You cannot learn what does not attract your attention. Women tend to find abstract systems, conflicts and mechanisms intrinsically boring.”

  • The evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers is also mentioned in the new tranche of emails. In 2015, he told Reuters that Mr. Epstein had given him about $40,000 for his research. And he defended Mr. Epstein, saying girls mature sooner than they used to. “By the time they’re 14 or 15, they’re like grown women were 60 years ago, so I don’t see these acts as so heinous,” he said to Reuters.

    What a scumbag. 🤮

  • 23 years ago I was working at an airport that had a Dash 8 doing those surveys. The local community was pinning a lot of hopes on that mining ... until many of the test drill sites came up uranium-positive.

    As of now I know more than a few people who have to use bottled water for everything.

  • But the United States’ new 28-point blueprint for a ceasefire includes a rival idea for using those same assets for American-led reconstruction efforts once a truce has been agreed. The U.S. would take “50 percent” of the profit from this activity, the document said.

    The mf'er is now trying to steal from the world. And I keep hoping somebody -- or anybody -- will shut him down ... but nobody is.

  • As much as any single person can, Summers embodies the most odious qualities of the political elite and the scorn they show for basic human well-being. We don’t need to be getting our policy insights from a pedophile-adjacent, ethically conflicted nepo baby. His advice isn’t worth it. He was wrong about our recent bout of inflation. He was wrong about bank deregulation. He was wrong about free trade agreements. He was wrong about fiscal stimulus. He even lost Harvard nearly $2 billion as president.

    We should demand much more from our economists, policymakers, and leaders. Indeed, making a more humane, responsive government will depend on it.

    All of this.

    ‘Trump is inconsistent with Christian principles’: why the Democratic party is seeing a rise of white clergy candidates

  • During the early 1940s, Nazi scientists working in the concentration camps of Auschwitz and Dachau during World War II conducted interrogation experiments on human subjects. Substances such as barbiturates, morphine derivatives, and hallucinogens such as mescaline were employed in experiments conducted on Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Jewish, and other nationalities' prisoners of war. The aim of these experiments was to develop a truth serum which would, in the words of one laboratory assistant to Dachau scientist Kurt Plötner, "eliminate the will of the person examined." American historian Stephen Kinzer said that the CIA project was a continuation of these earlier Nazi experiments, as evidenced by MKUltra's use of mescaline on unwitting subjects, replicating previous Nazi experiments conducted at Dachau.

    The CIA exported experiments to Canada when they recruited Scottish psychiatrist Donald Ewen Cameron, creator of the "psychic driving" concept, which the CIA found interesting. Cameron had been hoping to correct schizophrenia by erasing existing memories and reprogramming the psyche. He commuted from Albany, New York to Montreal every week to work at the Allan Memorial Institute of McGill University, and was paid $69,000 from 1957 to 1964 (US$766,936 in 2024, adjusted for inflation) to carry out MKUltra experiments there. The Montreal experiments research funds were sent to Cameron by a CIA front organization, the Society for the Investigation of Human Ecology, and as shown in internal CIA documents, Cameron did not know the money came from the CIA.

  • Trivalent seasonal influenza vaccines include two influenza A subtype viruses (H1N1 and H3N2) and one influenza type B virus. Influenza virus strains were selected based on the influenza vaccine production method: egg-based and cell- or recombinant-based.

    As a result of the meeting with the federal partners, the FDA recommends that the trivalent formulation of egg-based influenza vaccines for the 2025-2026 U.S. influenza season contain the following:

     
            - an A/Victoria/4897/2022 (H1N1)pdm09-like virus;
        - an A/Croatia/10136RV/2023 (H3N2)-like virus; and
        - a B/Austria/1359417/2021 (B/Victoria lineage)-like virus.

  • Why Canada would follow the USA in this tariff with the current trade war I can’t understand.

    Because there are signs that China's EV market is on the cusp of collapse. Opening up our markets to their cars now would help them more than it would help us.
