1) One of the most jaw-dropping discoveries I made while researching “The Autism Vaccine” took place in Austria. I was initially intrigued by the autism story when I realized that the first time aluminum had been used in a U.S. pediatric vaccine was 1932.
2) This was less than a year before Donald Triplett—the first child ever diagnosed with autism—was born. Knowing scientific studies have pointed towards elevated levels of aluminum in children with autism, I began to research when this new ingredient was first added.
3) The story of WHY it was added is fascinating, but WHEN it was added—1932—is important. Before that year, you will only find a rare mention of a few kids here & there resembling the modern diagnosis of autism.
Normally, when a single case of Covid starts an outbreak, it starts a single polytomy. We've observed this happening again and again, around the world.
In Wuhan, there are 2 polytomies. Pekar theorized that was from 2 spillovers.
A common argument for the lab leak theory is that Wuhan is 1,000 miles from the bat viruses most similar to SARS-CoV-2, therefore the virus must be unnatural.
The big problem with this argument is both SARS1 and MERS were found similarly far away from the closest bat viruses.
🧵
The first known SARS case happened in November 2002, in Foshan.
The closest known bat virus to SARS was found 11 years later, in a Yunnan province cave.
Yunnan is over 1,000 kilometers away from where SARS was first found in humans.
SARS was also found in Hubei (the province that Wuhan is in) in 2003, so we know these viruses can naturally travel from Yunnan to Hubei. web.archive.org/web/2021112019…
2026 may be the year AI starts to truly reason about biology.
AlphaFold helped close the sequence → structure gap.
The next frontier is sequence → functions.
Today, together with @genophoria and the team at @arcinstitute , we’re releasing BioReason-Pro — the first multimodal reasoning model for protein function prediction.
Under the hood, BioReason-Pro is a multimodal reasoning LLM based on Qwen3-4B-Thinking. It takes protein embeddings, GO graph embeddings, and biological context, and then the language model autoregressively reasons in natural language from molecular evidence to function.
The results are exciting: 73.6% weighted Fmax on GO prediction, outperforming prior accessible CAFA5 baselines. It also stays strong on proteins with low sequence similarity, where classical homology transfer starts to fail. And in blinded evaluation, human protein experts preferred its annotations over curated UniProt ground truth in 79% of cases.

1 The defining deliberations of this war aren't between the US and Iran, but Trump and himself. He’s vacillated between walking away and promising to bomb Iran to the Stone Age. Iran has been consistent: Its ideology is resistance, its strategy is chaos, its endgame is survival.
2 Trump has misunderstood the nature of the Islamic Republic. His threats to decimate Iran have not moved a regime which, since its inception, has shown itself willing to destroy the country and its people rather than compromise its power or ideology. theatlantic.com/international/…
3 In contrast to Trump, who has no fixed foreign policy views, Tehran’s ruling class call themselves “principlists” because of their fidelity to the principles of the revolution, above all resistance against America and the rejection of Israel’s existence.
🚨 THREAD: A step-by-step walkthrough of how the Canadian government controls what you think — through the news you trust.
Two articles. Two outlets. One week.
I'm going to show you exactly how it works — the framing, the omissions, the emotional triggers — so you can see it for yourself and never unsee it.
💰 CBC receives $1.58 BILLION per year from the government
→ That's 70% of their entire budget
💰 The Globe and Mail claims up to $29,750 PER journalist PER year through a government tax credit
→ At a 35% rate
→ Funded by you
These outlets aren't broken.
They're working exactly as designed.
Here's the blueprint. 🧵👇
📰 CBC published this headline:
"Poilievre backs J.K. Rowling's support for Olympic ban of transgender women from women's sports"
Sounds like a culture war opinion piece, right?
Here's the ACTUAL news:
🏅 The International Olympic Committee changed its eligibility rules
🧬 Athletes must now undergo SRY gene testing
👩⚕️ This is a scientific and medical decision by the IOC itself
But CBC didn't put the IOC in the headline.
They put Poilievre.
Ask yourself why.
🇺🇸 Sentence TWO of the CBC article ties the IOC decision to "an executive order from U.S. President Donald Trump."
Sounds like Trump made this happen, right?
Now read paragraph 14.
The IOC president herself says:
→ This was her priority BEFORE Trump took office
→ There was "no pressure from outside the Olympic movement"
So why did CBC lead with Trump?
Because they want you to think:
IOC decision = Trump's idea
↓
Poilievre agrees with it
↓
Therefore Poilievre = Trump
That's not journalism.
That's an emotional assembly line. 🏭

7 prompts that will make sure you never run out of money in your later years:
1. "Act as a retirement planning coach. I am [age] and have [amount] saved for retirement so far. I plan to retire at [age]. Tell me honestly if I'm on track, how big the gap is if I'm behind, and give me a clear step-by-step catch-up plan that maximizes every year I have left before retirement."
2. "Act as a retirement income coach. I am [X years] from retirement and don't understand how I will actually generate income once I stop working. Explain every retirement income source available to me — Social Security, 401k, IRA, pension, investments — and show me exactly how to structure them to maximize monthly income and minimize taxes."
Viruses and Joint and Tendon Pain
You had a cold two weeks ago. Nothing serious. But now your knee hurts more than it has in months. Your achilles is flaring. Your easy run felt like a half-marathon. You didn't do anything wrong. Here's what's actually happening...
I've been an orthopedic surgeon for nearly 30 years. One of the most consistent patterns I see: patients come in with a flare of their knee, shoulder, or tendon pain — no new injury, no change in activity — and when I ask if they've had a recent illness, the answer is often yes.
In October 2021, I got a virus. Bounced back quickly, or so I thought. Then my resting heart rate shot up, I was short of breath on stairs, and running was out of the question. These legs that have carried me over mountains couldn't jog a mile. I was in the grips of a post-viral syndrome for months.

People keep saying "Tamil is 60% Sanskrit," or "Malayalam is 80% Sanskrit," or "Kannada is 80% Sanskrit," as if it means something. This is clearly not linguistics, but mere vibes with percentages.
Let's see why. 🧵
English vocabulary is 60% French and Latin. Does anyone call English a Romance language? No, because that's not how language classification works. You classify by grammar, not by how many fancy words you borrowed from your neighbor. Grammar is the DNA of a language.
Japanese has 40-60% Chinese-origin words. Persian is stuffed with Arabic. Nobody calls Japanese "Sino-Tibetan" or Persian "Semitic." Because borrowing words is like borrowing clothes, you're still you underneath.

The gold standard textbook on language contact made this crystal clear: lexical borrowing is easy and casual. Structural borrowing is rare and requires deep, prolonged, intense contact.
When you find borrowed grammar, something serious has happened. Everyone talks about Sanskrit words going into Tamil, Malayalam, or Kannada. But no one talks about what Dravidians contributed to Sanskrit.
If we do a quick research from an academic perspective on what Dravidian has given to Sanskrit, or should we call it Prakrit? It's not merely words; it's the grammar, the skeleton of the spoken avrieties of Prakrit languages.
Retroflection, one of the classic sounds, those ṭ, ḍ, ṇ sounds that make Indian languages sound "Indian"? Proto-Indo-European didn't have them; Greek and Latin don't either, nor does Old Persian. None of the Germanic or Slavic branches have them. Not a single branch outside South Asia has them systematically. What does this tell us, where did Sanskrit get a whole retroflex consonant series ṭ, ṭh, ḍ, ḍh, ṇ, ṣ that participates productively in morphophonemic alternations?
Scholars such as Emeneau and Burrow argued the only possible way as from Dravidian, where retroflexion is reconstructible all the way back to Proto-Dravidian. Hock tried to argue some retroflexes could have developed internally in Indo-Aryan branch. Fair enough for a few cases but even Hock admitted that the systemetic productivity of retroflexion showing up in environments where no internal rule predicts it points to contact influence.
The retroflex lateral /ḷ/ found in Vedic Sanskrit has no Indo-European source whatsoever. It points directly and exclusively to a Dravidian model. There is simply no other explanation on the table.
ETRÜSKLER : Ölüm ve Diriliş
Latin şair Sextus Propertius (MÖ 50-16), Romalılar tarafından
MÖ 396’da ele geçirilen Etrüsk kenti Veii (Veiima)için Elegies (Ağıtlar) isimli eserinde şu dizeleri kaleme almıştır:
1-“Senin eski bir kraliyet tacın vardı Veii /Ve forum’unda altından bir taht dururdu / Duvarların şimdi yankılanıyor çobanın borusuyla / Küllerinin üzerinde savruluyor yaz buğdayları.”
(Harrel-Courtés, 1964:28; Dennis, 1985:16).
2-İngiliz edebiyatçı D.H.Lawrence (1885-1930) 1920’lerin ortasında ıssız Etrüsk mezarlarını dolaşırken hissettiklerini, ölümünden sonra 1932’de Londra’da basılan Etruscan Places (Etrüsk Yerleri) isimli eserinde şöyle dile getirmiştir:
