In terms of what cures are being lost: - Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis - herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis - shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

drives me insane how many American catholic conservatives want to yell at the Pope any time he does anything lib. mfer you're the one who believes he's the infallible word of god your supposed to sit down and listen.why do i have to be the one to say catholicism means more than hype moments and aura

>doesn't know the lore

It sucks, but it’s a real principal problem. Way too many members just don’t have the bandwidth to do this. What we need is to restore larger committee staff and support agencies so people can keep their eye on the ball over things like this.

the real answer here is congress is constitutional incapable of thinking more than two minutes ahead

one thing that will always be a mystery to me is the number of trump voters who basically thought they were electing george bush again reut.rs/3Mc4h4H

obliterate the nixon foundation NOW!!!!

Tbh It's pretty straightforward in this case— the motivation for the vast majority of the people who hate Tlaib has nothing to do with her actions and everything to do with her race.

Yea do people not get that "Schumer's racism is what prevented him from endorsing Mamdani" is not about Indians but about Arabs and Mamdani's views on their human worth conflicting with Schumer's?

Seems like that AOC's speech in Munich tomorrow will in some way address Palestine. On a secondary note, it's very rare to see a US newspaper say outright that actual genocide scholars agree that Gaza has been subject to genocide.

Not just politicians. Podcasts delenda est

I cannot emphasize enough that the impetus for direct spending on Democratic primaries from AIPAC was the May-June 2021 intifada and, to a lesser extent, the Bernie 2020 campaign.

The website is a lot more useable once you just accept that a lot of conversations are noise. My area of focus is Palestine, I'm primarily focused on further advancing a more attentive and reality-based perspective on it, and I think a lot of the secondary and tertiary arguments are uninteresting.

Put another way, if you think that the narrative that Democrats will tell themselves by 2028-2030 is that the Biden administration had its hands tied completely and that nothing could have been done differently, you may want to ask why the VP for that administration disagrees publicly.

This is why you should take anything from DropSite critically when it’s run by this guy, Ryan Grim

the wet market narrative is *bad for the Chinese government* and they have actively suppressed it at every turn! these people are incapable of the most basic understanding of the world.

Everyone wants some liberalism, nobody wants to admit to being a liberal

“Who are these people who showed up on Epstein's island? And the fact is that they are being protected and it's disgusting.” @rokhanna.bsky.social reacts after seeing the latest unredacted Epstein Files. Watch his discussion with @premthakker.bsky.social: zeteo.com/p/ro-khanna-...

"These actions are in violation of the UN charter" should be the most terrifying phrase in any human language and several alien ones

We need to actually do anti racism again, it’s crazy to me that people have been blaming Indian students for the housing crisis and not facing any consequences.

bill c-3 is great news for lost canadians but we have more work to do to reset the immigration debate in Canada

It’d have the benefit of encouraging people to see politics as a conversation rather than domination.

It would be good if this was the theme of her forthcoming speech in Europe.

Interesting rhetoric from AOC here

how am i just finding out that emmanuel macron has a stepdaughter who's the same age as him

Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

For all of the cultural and philosophical connections we have with Europe, our experience and identity look a lot more like the other nations in this hemisphere than anything else. Calling it the United States "of America" is not just a throwaway phrase

Heck, the best US regional cuisines are Tex-Mex and Louisiana creole... both heavily American Latin culture influenced.

Why are so many ‘gender critical’ transphobes found to be ‘in bed’ with the worst people?…. 🤔 Birds of a feather flock together.

if Biden had said this it would be a nonstop media cycle but since it’s Trump we need to instead do diner safaris to racism township, Pennsylvania to talk about how this is smart politics because it appeals to the forgotten man

In an attempt to distance himself from the Epstein scandal and Mandelson, the health secretary reveals that he's a moral coward only willing to say the obvious behind closed doors and in private groupchats.

The health of the Democratic Party would be indisputably better today if organizations like Americans for Democratic Action weren't a shell of their former self and had vibrant membership. But they are shells and don't have that kind of membership.

MS Now is a ridiculous name and rebrand, I thought this was a discount version of Democracy Now

“I’m mad I can’t understand Bad Bunny’s lyrics because they’re not in English” my brother millions of metalheads around the world have been happily listening to incomprehensible Finnish shrieks and Japanese death grunts since we were teens, you’re just boring and racist

I refuse to make sauces, which is why I prefer French cuisine

Edmund is exactly a guy who flinches at any expression of Abolition because it’s uncomfortable. Fanny ending up with him isn’t some great romance but about succumbing to the moral stain of Upper Middle Class life out of a need for comfort.

The feedback to Said’s analysis is so telling- it was profoundly obvious to me as a teen that the Bertram’s money was from slavery. Every family member’s choices reflects the moral stain of their wealth- even Edmund’s piety is suspect as it’s a quiet, Burkean conservative type

Thinking about how the Filipino sugar monopolies, started under Spanish colonization and continued after independence, culminated in one of the worst famines in our country’s history www.esquiremag.ph/long-reads/f...

if you read one essay today public health friends, make it this one. buttondown.com/abbycartus/a...

the public health response to this has to be “close the camps and free them all” and nothing less

This interview was so good

Trump invites Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to the Gaza Board of Peace This “Board of Peace” really is a Board of Genocidaires cc @diplomatofnight.com

[Edward Said voice] Ever read a Jane Austen book and thought about the atrocities of the sugar cane industry?

Bad Bunny good
