🚨HISTORY MADE! Rachel Entrekin just won the Cocodona 250 outright — first woman ever to take the OVERALL title! The 250-mile race from Phoenix to Flagstaff was an absolute beast, and she crushed it in 56:09:48, smashing the previous course record by over 2 hours. 13 minute mile pace for 56 hours! She only slept 3 times the entire race (one 5-min nap + two 7-min naps) and still dropped the entire elite men's field. Absolute legend!

Chloe woke up at 6:45am and immediately felt proud of herself. She had, after all, not eaten a single animal product in four years. The planet was healing. She could feel it. 6:52am - Applied her morning SPF. The SPF contains beeswax. Chloe does not know this. Moving on. 7:10am - Breakfast: a smoothie containing avocado. The avocado was grown in Michoacán, Mexico, on land where a pine forest was until 2019. It required approximately 320 litres of water to produce. It was flown to the UK. Chloe sprinkled hemp seeds on top. The hemp seeds came from China. Chloe felt connected to the earth. 8:00am - Got dressed. Polyester leggings, derived from crude oil. A bamboo top that was processed using carbon disulphide in a Taiwanese chemical plant. Trainers with a recycled plastic upper that sheds microplastics into waterways with every wash. Chloe's outfit today had a higher carbon footprint than a ribeye steak. Chloe does not know this either. 9:30am - Posted on Instagram about choosing compassion. The phone was manufactured in a Shenzhen factory using cobalt from the DRC, where mining operations have displaced local communities and killed an unknowable number of small mammals, reptiles, and insects. The algorithm served Chloe an ad for oat milk. Chloe liked it. 12:00pm - Lunch: tofu stir-fry. The soy was grown in Brazil. Brazil produces more soy than almost any country on earth. The primary reason is soybean oil: one of the most widely used industrial and culinary oils on the planet. The soymeal left over after oil extraction is fed to livestock as a byproduct. Chloe is aware of the livestock connection and finds it outrageous. She has not looked into why the soy was grown in the first place. The answer is the oil. The oil is in her salad dressing. 1:30pm - Drove to the garden centre. The car runs on petrol. Chloe has a Just Stop Oil sticker on the bumper. This is not being commented on further. 3:00pm - Bought a monstera. The monstera was grown in a Dutch greenhouse using natural gas heating. Chloe put it next to the pothos that is slowly poisoning the neighbourhood cats. 6:00pm - Dinner: pasta with cashew cream sauce. The cashews were processed in Vietnam, often by workers in conditions that would prompt significant commentary if they were in an abattoir. 8:00pm - Watched a documentary about factory farming. Wept. Posted about it. Caption: "We have to do better." Chloe is, by every measure she has chosen to measure by, doing brilliantly. By some of the others, the picture is more complicated. Chloe has not chosen to measure by those.

this story is absolutely insane 🤯 > tech guy with zero biology background. > his dog got terminal cancer. > vets said 1 - 6 months left. > bro said nah not on my watch. > asked ChatGPT for a treatment plan. > sequenced tumor DNA for $3k. > used AlphaFold AI to model mutated proteins. > designed world’s first personalized mRNA vaccine for a dog. > partnered with universities to synthesize it. > ethics approval took 3 months. > vaccine design took 2 months. > first injection December 2025. > tumors shrank 75% within weeks. > dog happy. > universities confirmed it worked. > now designing version 2 for remaining tumor. AI + a guy determined to save his dog just outperformed the pharma industry 💀 the cure for cancer will be open source.
