Who has made this 🤣

There's a subset of GOPer that seems to have entered politics almost entirely for the potential to be adjacent to killing people and well imo that sort of person probably shouldn't be in office

This is an excellent read. The more you know. #Science 🧪 “… we were advancing toward elimination of hepatitis B in the United States,” says Ward “I am deeply concerned that if the ACIP rescinds this policy, they’re going to contribute to the spread of hepatitis B rather than its elimination.”

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

Mockler: It's honestly humiliating that other countries are treating our president like a child, like a baby. It's like if I created a peace prize and I gave it to myself. I'm like, I'm just going to keep this medal on all night. Our president is an actual child

The Hepatitis B vaccine was expected to prevent 9.5 million infections, 2.4 million chronic cases, and save 600,000 lives in the US by 2050. The federal vaccine committee has blood on their hands.

Yuanxin, the 6 year old kidnapped by ICE earlier this week, has been located in the Office of Refugee Resettlement. This is also where they sent Emmanuel Garcia, the 15 year old autistic boy who went missing in Texas. It took his mother 50 days to get him back. We must get Yuanxin out faster.

If you’re dealing with a chronic illness flare, remember it’s ok to rest. You’re not failing. You didn’t do anything wrong. You’re not being punished. Flare ups happen and the best thing we can do is lean in to radical rest as much as possible. Save your spoons and give yourself grace.

.uck you people who treated Høeg as a legitimate voice during the pandemic. I remember a few "but she's an expert" people - no, she has always and obviously has been a crank.

Unbelievable. DN has a mysig 3 page interview with Martin Kulldorff and just lets him run with antivaxx propaganda with "both sides" feel, even a quote from Stabell Benn. What a day to do it on, given they just got rid of newborn Hep B vaccination.

In a strong rebound for TV, 2025's best series used sharp satire and deep humanity to skewer Hollywood, fight fascism, and celebrate resistance, proving the medium still packs a necessary punch.

AI is a crisis for the climate. @naomiaklein.bsky.social

After fighting to keep emails between Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s office and billionaire Elon Musk’s companies secret, officials have released nearly 1,400 pages of documents to @kutnews.bsky.social and The Texas Newsroom. All but about 200 pages are blacked out.

ha yeah

Honestly Canada: your country is burning down - quite literally - because of fossil fuel addiction. And you’re continuing to expand fossil fuel extraction FOR AMERICA - and who makes the profit? AMERICAN CORPORATIONS. Holy fuck please just wake the fuck up.

Elon Musk is using Twitter to call for the National Guard shooter to be “hanged without delay”. He says where there’s premeditated murder, punishment must be swift. He knew cutting USAID would kill people. He did it anyways. 600,000 people have died. What’s his punishment?

I'm an "A.i." abolitionist. No consumer-facing LLMs or generative "A.i." in anything. Sure, machine learning in science and a few other limited applications is fine. But consumer-facing LLMs and generative "A.i." that are based on theft, push disinfo, and can be manipulated by billionaires? No.

"Also, imagine if Clippy was programmed to encourage you to kill yourself."

"Imagine you stole all of the intellectual property in the world. And you're using it to help people write middling emails and make revenge porn about women, and also children. And you're powering this plagiarism and non-consensual porn machine by eating up what's left of humanity's carbon budget."

The purpose of DOGE was to exfiltrate the private data of hundreds of millions of Americans to Palantir's servers

My colleague, Dr. Vahid Abedini, was illegally detained by ICE on Saturday. He is currently being held without a court date in sight, despite being in the country legally. Please spread the word! We must ensure his due process rights are upheld. www.oudaily.com/news/ou-prof...

Marimar Martinez is a US citizen who was shot by ICE five times in Chicago. She was then arrested, labelled a “domestic terrorist” and slandered on social media. All charges against her have been dropped. In this interview she shows on of the seven holes the ICE agent put in her body.

In 1999 when I was The Guardian's Music Critic a PR phoned & said he had a great band he wanted me to see. So I went. It was dark & I couldn't see the PR's face. When the lights came up I realised The PR was not a man at all, or a PR, but a beagle. I didn't like the band. they were called Coldplay.

You can disagree, but ask yourself this: Who was it who first told you to listen to 'Indian Rope Man' by Julie Driscoll or early Funkadelic or the second Buffalo Springfield LP? Was it dogs? Of course it wasn't. It was a cat you met under a dank bridge.

I don't deny that dogs can sometimes be quite lovely but what I will say is I don't trust their opinions. If a cat recommended me an album it had bought, I'd totally check it out. If a dog did the same, I'd promise to listen to the album, out of politeness, with no intention of actually doing so

What do we say when the government comes asking for data it's not entitled to? Fuck you, make me. www.autonomynews.co/doj-subpoena...

I am by no means a prominent public intellectual, but my inbox is increasingly filled with messages from people who have been convinced by sycophantic chatbots that they have discovered revolutionary theories that entirely upend our scientific understanding of the universe.

Beautiful tribute to Alice 💔

The only move they got is more cruelty and inhumanity innit

you don’t get to indulge in whataboutism as an excuse to not do anything. stop insisting COVID-aware folk want you to shut down the world. we’re asking you to open it up—for everyone. so be a big boy/girl: wear a mask, and it you want to help disabled people, take a cue from the late alice wong:

just remembering that when Pod Save mocked Alice Wong for challenging them on disability.... but gave a full interview to someone to explain a Nazi tattoo

I don’t want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed. Here are the words she left behind: www.instagram.com/p/DREMDNBjnq...

Sweden is one of the least dense countries in Europe, with a healthy population and many people living by themselves. Note the carefully selected 2020-2024. Sweden had huge mortality at the start, compared to our neighbours. Note too "all cause excess death" metric cherry picking. Jay's at it again

Wait I’ve seen this one! 2020: “Covid is not airborne” 2021: “Covid infections build immunity” 2022: “Covid is over” 2023: “Covid is mild” 2024: “Covid is just a cold” 2025: “It’s not Covid, it’s flu” Actually, yes. Years of Covid infections damaged your immune system making you vulnerable to flu.

There are wolves inside of you, wild and free. There's also a grizzled raccoon who's seen too much, a wine drunk lynx with late night ennui, and a sleepy little squirrel who often feels the weight of the world.

By tern @1goodtern So... this young woman is very excited, because she has been told by a neurologist that she has FND not Long Covid... because her symptoms started two months after her covid infection. Doctors are so whack. Source: x.com/1goodtern/st...

Love 2 go to the doctor and not know what body part they’re analyzing

Temerko, a Soviet-born oligarch and a major Conservative donor, told Belton that he and Johnson spent time… plotting the overthrow May. According to Temerko, Johnson had finally been persuaded to back Brexit in 2016 by a group of “eastern European businessmen”. bylinetimes.com/2023/01/19/l...

Official U.S. Government account refers to its citizens as "imbecilic morons".

My goodness. The stuff of nightmares. Bravo to everyone who enabled this.

The message is clear. If there’s another pandemic, you’re on your own.

I always thought Bhattacharya was dumb, but now I think he's Kennedy dumb, and I'm just wondering if the brain worms are contagious.

Who can we really afford — the rich or everyone else? youtu.be/SzTi95kUBKo?...

UK Govt to rethink rejection of Waspi compensation over not informing women of pension age hike. Last year Parliamentary Ombudsman recommended a govt apology and compensation. Govt offered no compensation. Credit to the 1950s born women for fighting.

Laws bent for the rich. Wages taxed at marginal rates of 20% – 45% plus national insurance contributions (NIC). Capital gains taxed at 18% to 32%, no NIC . Dividends taxed at 8.75% to 39.35%, no NIC. Return on wealth must not be taxed at lower rates.
