As a graduate student at MIT, Steve Ramirez successfully created false memories in the lab.
Now, as a neuroscientist working at the frontiers of brain science, he foresees a future where
we can replace our negative memories with positive ones.
In "How to Change a Memory", Ramirez draws on his own memories
—of friendship, family, loss, and recovery
—to reveal how memory can be turned on and off like a switch,
edited, and even
constructed fro…

After courting coal miners during his campaign,
Trump has left a trail of broken promises.
Many miners in Appalachia thought they would finally see a commitment to solving the issue of black lung.
Last year, on April 18, 2024, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) issued its final rule,
"Lowering Miners’ Exposure to Respirable Crystalline Silica and Improving Respiratory Protection",
which aimed to reduce miners’ exposure to an airborne co…

An #earworm popping up in my brain lately. A poem I was made to memorize when I was 14. It re-emerges every couple years, for no reason I can figure. tbh, I usually only remember verbatim the first few lines or so, and have to look it up again.

"Emperor... will free our hands in all manners of surveillance, search & seizure."
"Why can't they just leave us in peace?"
"It's going on everywhere."
Sounds familiar.

Trump frequently campaigned with coal miners during his 2016 presidential run,
and has since continued to participate in photo-ops using miners as a symbolic backdrop for his energy policies while campaigning and serving in office.
However, despite the president courting the CEOs of the mining industry heavily during his campaign,

just before coal mines were expected t…

He has labored in the fields every summer and on weekends during the school year since he was 11 years old to help his mother, who also picks berries.
His siblings, uncles and cousins — four of them minors — work in local strawberry fields.
Jose said that some days he didn’t fill many boxes and earned less than minimum wage for the hours he worked,
Awhich would be a violation of state child labor laws.
He described toiling under the hot sun in fields where employers f…
