Hey @adobe.com. How about Acrobat without AI Assistant / Generative summary? Acrobat used to be nice, low resource app. AI Assistant and Generative AI popups take so long to load on my Win11 machine that it makes the app almost unusable. Or maybe a version without that stuff? Thanks for considering!

Mississippi, on the other hand, with a GOP governor, state house and state senate, ranks * 45th in business starts * 46th in academic performance * 51st in health care * 49th in venture capital But tell me again how the GOP is good for the economy

Or who advocate for transgender care.

The American public needs to understand that high-level HHS officials are shamelessly lying to us all. Tylenol does not cause autism, and Makary, Bhattacharya, and Oz knew this as they stood there next to Trump as he said it did, nodding like bobbleheads.

Odd, how we can’t afford to give Americans healthcare, but we can afford to drop $200,000,000,000 on Argentina with a moment’s notice.

The Department of Agriculture announced this week that it will stop collecting data about food insecurity in the U.S. Experts say the move will obscure the effects of recent changes that will lead to people losing food aid. #FoodPolicy #News

Disgusting.

Excellent view from anthropology: "In my own fieldwork in remote regions such as the Ituri Forest in the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Kalahari Desert in Namibia — where some communities have little or no access to vaccines or modern medicine — I found many children and adults with autism."

Inflation is so bad these days that taking a $50,000 cash bribe can't even get you indicted. SAD!! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The @washingtonpost.com story on Tylenol & autism leaves out a MAJOR 2.5M sibling-controlled study of children in Denmark, which "found no evidence that acetaminophen use during pregnancy was associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD or intellectual disability." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

American farmers have been betrayed. Despite the majority of farmers voting for Trump, he sold them out with his tariffs. Farmers used to export their soybeans to China. Post-tariffs, China gets the majority of their soybeans from Brazil. Farm bankruptcies are increasing

Exactly this

The reality of what happened in the Senate hearing today with Drs. Monarez and Houry is this: RFK Jr. was again exposed as a liar and a fraud whose intention it is to take vaccines away from children. The reality of what will happen in the face of this calamity is this: Nothing. B/c Republicans

The math showing one challenge in dealing with rampant scientific misinformation from the Trump administration. 1 false claim from Marty Makary that COVID19 vaccines caused 25 pediatric death led to 10 pages of rebuttal from DPH explaining why he’s wrong based on 5 years of research

Ta-Nehisi Coates bringing the TRUTH.

I would love to be on permanent standard time! (Yes, I’m one of those people.)

As gun laws became more lax, the percentage of guns used in domestic extremist-related killings increased It's the prevalence of guns in the US that is to blame for school children AND political figures being murdered It's the guns

Important article from @emilymillermd.bsky.social and colleagues on disparities in neonatal counseling. Black and Hispanic pregnant people, Medicaid recipients, and non-English speakers were less likely to receive consults. #neosky rdcu.be/eGsxL

Corporate profits in the US are near record levels, meaning businesses *could* absorb increased costs from tariffs. But they won't.

Just scheduled #flu and #covid #vaccines for @briane802.bsky.social and me at #CVS in Williston, #Vermont. System asked “Are you eligible?” Yes. Because I believe in science.

Did you know states and local jurisdictions set vaccine requirements for daycare and school? Here’s a state-by-state look at the current requirements and exemptions: https://on.kff.org/4pbWQJg

Repost for @padkaer.bsky.social

RIP Charlie Kirk. May all who mourn find solace in knowing that he believed gun deaths were “worth it,” “prudent,” and “rational.”

Another thing, we are in this violent place, not merely because of rhetoric, but also policy. Something I'm arguing in my manuscript is state violence must be seriously considered in terms of understanding what safety really entails for Black communities. I'm not safe just because crime is down.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

I’ve always been interested in a “housing first” approach. There’s evidence that stable housing increases the probability that health will improve. That requires affordable housing and a compassionate, public that values evidence…

RFK Jr.’s new report that claims it will make childen healthy again ignores the number one cause of death for childen in the United States: gun violence. Fellow Defend Public Health member @brucemirken.mas.to.ap.brid.gy talked to the LA Times about this. We didn’t ignore it in our IHAT report.

New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has called on FIFA to scrap dynamic ticket pricing at the World Cup, place a cap on resale prices, and make 15% of tickets available to local residents at a discounted rate, through a "Game Over Greed" initiative.

I was thinking about this with regard to gun control today. A country so at war with the truth that we‘ve lost the ability to solve really easy problems.

Genius.

"The group brings together hundreds of grandparents nationwide who lived through diseases such as polio, tuberculosis and measles — illnesses once thought eliminated in the United States..." www.kgw.com/article/news...

It’s cheaper to reduce the number of people allowed to own a gun to almost 0. 🤷🏾‍♂️

#Bolton - @afcwimbledon1889.bsky.social on CBS Sports Network. Is this the #Wrexham effect? Or maybe the @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social effect? Either way, I’m here for it. ⚽️

What should happen if armed, masked ICE agents - or armed, masked people dressed indistinguishably from ICE agents - stand outside voting places in liberal-leaning districts on election day 2026? Who should respond? How?

Ossoff: He never should have been confirmed by the senate and he needs to resign. It is one thing to be a skeptic or a reformer. It is quite another to be a fool…

It is further devastating that the hearing was a lot of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Kennedy continues to claim that vaccines aren’t adequately tested. He is a liar. They are the most thoroughly tested intervention of all.

RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60’s, so here’s a fact check. In 1965: -42% of American adults smoked; it’s 11% now. -The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; it’s 5.6/1000 now. -Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.

RFK JR: It's going to have a it's going to it's going to be the biggest infusion of federal dollars into rural health care in American history. SANDERS: You know why? Because you're cutting $150 billion for rural hospitals. You're putting $50 billion back. That's not an infusion.

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

One thing still missing from the Make America Healthy Again agenda: Affordable access to health coverage and care.

The extent to which ICE is ignoring all civil rights and due process is astounding — and indicative of a culture where they’ve been told they can do literally no wrong. Agency and admin leaders must face sanctions and legal consequences.

Part of what frustrates me greatly right now is the idea that a better world is possible — and other countries are getting there! — and the US is increasingly just choosing not to be better.
