RFK Jr.’s handpicked anti-vaccine staff at HHS have apparently decided that the CDC will no longer recommend most childhood vaccines. They will encourage parents to discuss it with doctors instead. This is going to kill babies, and it will cause the most harm among the most vulnerable.

RFK Jr. is going to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines. It will take a few years before the deaths and disabilities ramp up to a level that even the most vile Republican cannot tolerate. RFK Jr. will be long gone and unaccountable, as our babies die from preventable illness.

One of the most disturbing things about the U.S. government getting themselves into the anti-vaccine game is that it is a time-release poison pill. It will take a few years before the worst of the harm is visible to enough people that they will truly understand what has been done to them.

HR departments countrywide need to start treating gendercrit employees as potentially hostile. As soon as you are required to interact with one, you dust off the rulebook, you dot every eye and cross every t, and you assume bad faith at every turn. They are a threat to every organisation.

hey @nytimes.com i had the scoop on this story hours ago. add a reference in your story to my name and outlet. thanks. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/u...

here's Trump's full racist rant about MN's Somali community: "Somalians ripped off that state for billions. And they contribute nothing... Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage. These aren't people that work... They come from hell & do nothing but bitch. We don't want them"

America is a country that will test UBI hundreds of times, get the same radically positive results each time, and still look at it askance, but will also put untested robotaxis on the road because a billionaire threw a shit fit.

If JK Rowling herself doesn't separate her art from her transphobia, and has said she sees every Harry Potter fan as a fan of her transphobia, and uses every dollar she makes to fund transphobia, I need people to stop insisting they "separate art from artist" because it's beyond disingenuous atp

i hope every single person who still buys harry potter merch or engages with that franchise is happy that they're literally making girl guides cry girl guides uk have been forced very much against their will to exclude trans girls. full statement is here: www.girlguiding.org.uk/information-...

Does anyone have any good voice training resources?

RFK Jr. is so evil I’m sick and tired of living in a corrupt country run by ghouls and goons.

CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

hell they shouldn't have the ability to deny funding to people who HAVE committed crimes, you need money to survive, but you know

Banks should not have the ability to unilaterally deny funding to people who have committed no crime. It is bizarre that this is even an issue.

The nyt editors already have a biased angle in mind. They’re not seeking facts, they’re looking for quotes to fill in a predetermined narrative of bigotry. Every nyt story about us is intended to spread disinformation and foment discrimination. The leadership’s anti-trans animosity is deeply held

Every time I take an Estradiol pill I feel a little bit of the audacity leaving my body.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

Gonna say it, not enough games about defeating Klansmen, Confederates or neo-Confederates.

Feel free to attribute the following to a former OMB General Counsel: The supposed "new legal analysis" is, to use a technical legal term, horseshit. What the law actually says is that when Congress enacts a law ending a lapse, furloughed employees get paid at the earliest date possible. Period.

Exclusive: The Trump administration is preparing a plan that will make it harder for older Americans to qualify for Social Security disability payments, part of an overhaul that could result in hundreds of thousands of people losing benefits.

What the fuck did I just read? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)

Justice for Kyren Lacy!!! Holy shit.

I am told that furloughed Department of Labor employees were instructed today that out-of-office messages should blame Democrats.

I've suffered a lot more bullying and ostracization for being an Astros fan than for being transgender or autistic.

RFK Jr. just hired Mark Blaxill, one of the original anti-vaxxers, to work for the CDC. via @brandyzadrozny.bsky.social www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/r...

i was homeless for more than three years (this last time) and i would rather not repeat especially w the military coming

Starting to do an internal debate of how much of my woes are because I need to work on myself more versus because other people are just hateful.

"[T]here's no real difference between an acetaminophen scaremonger like RFK Jr. and an anti-trans obsessive like J.K. Rowling ... [B]oth spread lies as easily as they breathe, it's just that certain segments of society feel a bit icky about the idea of trans people and so are more likely to listen."

the daily caller published a call to violence of the left yesterday, a news organization that has connections to the heritage foundation

Abolish ICE. Now. www.newsweek.com/ice-detentio...
