Hey, remember this?

He's young and inexperienced, a bit overexcited, so it's not surprising that he'd prematurely...wait, no, that's something else

#DonaldSlump It'd be a shame if that trended.

Did Women Ruin The Workplace

MIKE JOHNSON: Same thing with radiation. A little radioactivity in everything. Bananas are a tiny bit radioactive. So, no difference between eating a banana and a uranium fuel rod.

Mamdani only got the most votes in 56 years, what’s the big deal? By Ross Douthat

Mamdani Won The Wrong Way By Ezra Klein

Lairmore: Ahh, but the sandwich! That's - that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with - geometric logic - that there WAS mustard! And I'd have PRODUCED that mustard if they hadn't've pulled me out of service!

Healthcare but only for my friends

This is like saying "Musicians divide music into two main types: loud and not loud"

In other news, Ken Paxton is suing his parents for hiding Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny

Total insanity. Like suing Ireland for hiding leprechauns.

This is like if Marge Schott had said “Martha, in case you don’t know it, I’m actually a baseball player”

Shot (literally) / Chaser

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

In about three years the entire university pivot to AI curricula and schools and programs is going to be so deeply embarrassing. We will all pretend it never happened and I will be standing there, looking at people with a mirror in my eyes. This is all so embarrassing.

Brown rejected the compact! www.brown.edu/sites/defaul...

Thank goodness

an incontestable fact of the second trump administration is it is actively trying to sicken and kill as many americans as it can

The editors of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today. The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly. We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

Oh fuck off.

More are united around a simple message: RFK Jr should not be HHS Sec. His decisions undermine our public health capacity and put lives and health at risk. As 6 former Surgeon Generals argue: "He has rejected science, misled the public and compromised the health of Americans." 🎁 wapo.st/3VTALll

counterpoint: that speech was bad, actually, and even if it had been an email it would have been a bad email

This is art.

Troops. In an American city. Using full force. Your now-regular reminder that Republican members of Congress are letting this happen.

A baby’s immune system is ready for the hepatitis B vaccine as soon as they are born, and giving newborns the first dose vaccine within 24 hours of birth (with additional doses at 1-2 months and 6-18 months) remains the best protection against serious health problems like liver disease and cancer.

Decades of research have proven that acetaminophen is safe for children when taken correctly and under the guidance of a child’s pediatrician. Learn more. www.aap.org/en/news-room...

In a shocking on-air moment, a “Fox and Friends” co-host said homeless people suffering from mental health issues who refuse help should be killed

From a comfortable studio sofa, Fox & Friends re-invents Aktion T4, 86 years after the fact: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aktion_T4 We’re in a bad, bad place

But don’t call them Nazis.

The idea that an instructor can and *should* be fired for daring to teach something not explicitly mentioned in course catalog is the pinnacle of the "students as customers" idiocy that's been steadily destroying American universities for decades now. You're taking a class, not buying a product.

If you click through to the video, you’ll hear a young woman repeatedly telling a college professor that President Trump has declared that what the Professor had been teaching is illegal and she’ll be meeting with the head of the university about it. It’s chilling and scary.

If *your department head and your dean* can be removed for supporting your colleague in teaching in their area of expertise, then you have no academic freedom. In a functional sense, you don't work at a university at all.

Supreme Court Rules 6-3 That Fundamental Interests Of United States Of America Would Be Irreparably Harmed If It Race-Based Harassment And Detention By Masked Thugs Were Even Temporarily Halted

Leg braces - $20-$30k, I’ve had at LEAST 6 leg braces. Wheelchairs - $5k for manual with no bells and whistles, I’ve had 2 Medications - anywhere between $100-$2000 /month pending health issues Surgeries - 19 surgeries $40k to - $1m inc. hospital stays I had polio. This is the cost.

I mean, we eradicated polio and smallpox, and we *were* on the list for having eliminated measles within our borders for all intents and purposes, though that's fucked now. The covid vaccine was a success, as well. RFK Jr is fucking willfully ignorant and dangerous as hell.

To the best of my knowledge, these assertions are simply not true and are actually unsubstantiated by the evidence when they have been directly examined.

This repost is an endorsement

The problem is, RFK jr doesn’t want to know —about Covid deaths, about lives saved by vaccination. He has his agenda, facts be damned. That he was ever confirmed is a disgrace.

About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”

Today, Governor DeSantis shared his plans to end vaccine requirements in the state of Florida. We are concerned that today's announcement will put children in Florida public schools at higher risk for getting sick and have ripple effects across their community. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

So #RFKJr is a liar. He's a charlatan. @kasie.bsky.social catches him here and it's wonderful to watch. We need more of this. Do not give this man any credibility. He's a huckster with famous name and is destroying public health and science in America. Spread the word.

someone should put together a "kennedy death count" for everyone who dies of a preventable disease and just plaster it everywhere www.statnews.com/2025/08/28/c...
