We need people who believe in striving for all human rights to Drop In & Escort Humanitarian Aide into Gaza, Sheikh Jarrah, etc. I feel like there is something fundamentally wrong about not helping them, or not taking action against apartheid.

A noninvasive brain-computer interface capable of converting a person’s thoughts into words. We need laws to protect our thoughts. The alphabet boys want to spy on our phones, email, and now, even our thoughts & brainwaves.


Nature
