This is so cool, I love learning shit like this

I have read a lot about molecular biology, perhaps very interesting! (during my undergraduate, it was one of my academic subject)

I don't use social media so I get my news by listening to the radio, which is not very good for learning but perfect for local news.
If you are a casual investigator I would recommend you check out retraction watch dot com, it's a website that tracks retracted scientific papers. I check it every week and always learn a thing or two, I often times have a laugh as well.
Educational blogs are something I keep up with as well (Like wheresyouredat and smarterthanthat) but if you want reliable information in whatever topic the best option is to read the books. Blogs are just for casual curiosity imo.

Americans hate morality with a passion.

I set up an rss feed for my custom startpage and I also use an app for rss news (I personally use plenary for android).
I mostly use newsfeeds from my country for local and global news (mostly the German tagesschau tbh) and more specific news for the scientific field I'm studying to work in.
For stuff in the English language, I really like Hacker News; I set my feed for it to the URL "https://hnrss.org/newest?points=1500" to only get articles that have at least 1500 points to ensure the likelihood that they'll be interesting to me.
I sometimes watch cabaret and satire news with one of my friends (mostly German stuff like the heute-show (we even watched it live once, she's a huge fan) but lately she's started watching LastWeekTonight which I think is pretty funny, both have a moderator named Oliver lol) and we often just talk after the show which is nice.

I have an e-book reader (a used one isn't too expensive and e-books are usually a lot cheaper than printed books, just don't buy them on amazon so you can put them in calibre and then on any device you want) and I like to read recommendations from https://fivebooks.com/ that sound good to me, although I double check them for reviews on goodreads first. I'm not a fan of straight up goodreads recommendations tbh, but I occasionally check them out as well.
Also, if I have time, I'll just visit my local library and check out what they've got in the non-fiction section.
I occasionally use reddit and pinterest, but one easily leads to doomscrolling and the other leads to… idk, I just get really really lost on pinterest, I can't even trust myself to use it responsibly so I use an app-timer that automatically closes the app once the time is up.

Great recommendation; my aunt is a researcher and she recommended https://retractionwatch.com/ to me as well. The rss feed is easy to find too, it's just https://retractionwatch.com/feed/

Patriots say that Americans will never pick up a gun to resist tyranny because Americans are too lazy to even send an email to Congress, but you should never give up defending freedom.

Don't go to the concentration camps quietly.
