This is 100% wrong.
I had 4 high-risk pregnancies and I (and my children) are alive because of medical care. I've sat with the families who weren't so lucky.
This framing of pregnancy and childbirth as easuly and safe is wrong.

For thousands of years, cultures of all sorts - including Egyptians, Greeks, Romans - blessed their ships hoping to keep sailors safe during voyages. Today’s renaming ceremony had a Cava (Spanish sparkling wine) bottle broken on bow in a nod to #FalkorToo's refit, done in Spain.

Hindu folk chant the Vedic mantras using four tones: Udatta (middle tone), Anudaatta (lower tone), Svarita (higher tone) & Deergha Svarita (high tone extended). These mantras are considered divine sounds that pierce through all levels of consciousness. #TempleThursday

The Ocean plays a vital role driving climate, weather + ecosystem interactions on all scales. Fine-scale features are critical in forecasting, but are notoriously difficult to measure. R/V #FalkorToo’s High-Performance Computing #HPC system can be used at sea to improve modeling.

In the process of researching a story in the last 24 hours about pandemic SNAP benefits ending, I've learned from multiple people that they are desperately trying to contact call center to finish their applications and they sit on hold endlessly or get disconnected.

My favorite chapter from Dao de Jing:
A jar is formed from clay, but it’s usefulness lies in the empty center.
A room is made from four walls, but usefulness lies in the space between.
Matter is necessary to get form, but the value of reality lies in empty space
- Lao Zi

Fimbulvetr, which means "great winter," is the prelude to Ragnarök, the great apocalyptic battle of the Norse gods. This years-long snowfall will end all life on Earth, paving the way for the gods to wage war & create more natural disasters. #MythologyMonday

Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, marks the spring equinox in the northern hemisphere. The symbol of the ram has been tied back to Dumuzi, the Sumerian god of fertility, agriculture, shepherds, & farmers, who spends winter in the Underworld. #FolkloreSunday

Most of the #DeepSea below 2000m hasn’t been explored. Although only 0.25% of Earth’s surface is deeper than 6000m, these are the least known areas of our planet. Research Vessel #FalkorToo will be a cutting-edge platform for remotely operated vehicles. Science starts in 6 days!

In 2018, "Parachute use to prevent death and major trauma when jumping from aircraft: randomized controlled trial" was published in the British Medical Journal.
It sought to determine if wearing a parachute when jumping from a plane had any impact on survivability.
It did not.

If you were taught that "states' rights" caused a Civil War...
Or wondered why people shed white tears over monuments of mustachioed un-American traitors...
Or seen a Confederate flag at an insurrection
Well, you can thank one family of white supremacist nepo babies

Saint Wilgefortis, despite being the daughter of a pagan king, converted to Christianity & took a vow of chastity. To avoid an arranged marriage, she prayed for God to make her ugly, & sprouted a beard overnight. Her father then put her to death by crucifixion. #TempleThursday

"The Mask Mandates Did Nothing" is not the same as masks do nothing. Anyway, it still boggles my mind that grown ass adults whined about throwing on a mask in a crowd like a toddler tantruming about having to wear shoes.

Don't underestimate kids. They can understand the concept of "A bad person wrote this book but I can still enjoy the book."
Don't insult their intelligence by censoring Roald Dahl's work. If you a parent or an educator, EDUCATE. Otherwise what good are you?

Norse goddess Freyja has a necklace called Brísingamen, forged by dwarves. Odin has it stolen & tells Freyja he'll only return it if she curses two kings to fight for eternity, or until they're killed. She agrees, & two kings fight for over a century. #FolkloreSunday

It is already clear that Bing AI is a big a leap over ChatGPT as ChatGPT was over the old GPT-3 model
It generated paper ideas based on my previous papers, found gaps in the literature, suggested methods "consistent with your previous methods," and offered potential data sources

I got up as close to this patient as possible—now my patient—an arm’s length. Just out of striking distance. I asked, “What do you need right now?”
No kidding, his mouth hung open. He stared at my hair. Back to me.
“Hungry,” he said. “I’m hungry. But I mean, I need real food.”
