Influencers are promoting these three health tests – but they risk doing more harm than good www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... - full-body MRI? Don't. - AMH for women’s fertility? Don't. - testosterone tests for healthy men? Don't. Harm: overdiagnosis, anxiety, problematic "therapies", etc.

The ostrich con: Arguments to save birds from cull in B.C. were based on falsehoods, evidence shows - CBC News . They should be made to pay back the 7 million it cost taxpayers

All this and we still haven’t forgotten he hasn‘t released the Epstein Files.

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something. For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

Only a master deal maker could achieve the status quo of 5 weeks ago in exchange for accomplishing nothing of value and turning his country into a global pariah. Thank you sir

You know the USA has gone completely insane when MTG is the voice of reason

For all of you in an uproar about Trump's completely unhinged expletive-riddled Easter Sunday post, I would encourage you to remember some of the truly egregious things Obama did.

Comparing Easter messages

To everyone celebrating Easter, Michelle and I wish you a joyful holiday filled with reminders of the enduring power of faith and hope.

i love that the #Nasa astronauts have a paper check list onboard #Artemis. those of us struggling with EMRs in our medical practices can relate!

There are a lot of countries that allow birthright citizenship, but there is only one stupid enough to make you president.

oh look, all the people interacting with the #astronauts are wearing respirator style masks. If #NASA thinks they work, they obviously work. No RCTS required

Motherhood derails women’s academic careers — these data reveal how and why www.nature.com/articles/d41... "...women have almost five times the amount of childcare responsibilities that men have." "...more pronounced among mothers who were trained in departments without women in senior positions"

The “W” word

Excellent article from @jvipondmd.bsky.social @dickzoutman.bsky.social @smbilodeau.bsky.social thetyee.ca/Analysis/202... The nearly total absence of OH&S regulation in health care facilities meant respiratory protection required anywhere else was not available.

RFK Jr.’s hypocritical quackery wapo.st/47o3EfI Soooo true. In RFK Jr world: unproven & potentially harmful supplements, stem cell therapies, diets, and, sigh, peptides are GOOD! But the most studied and beneficial biomedical intervention in human history, vaccines, are BAD! WTF? Dark Age 2.0.

Fantastic opportunity for a very lucky grad student

getting old sucks. when you're young you get injured doing sports and things like going to dance class. When you're old, you break your toe when your foot slips off the rung of your stool before you leave the house to go to the dance class

Dear streaming services don’t make me wait to watch the next episode each week. I will forget what I was watching. I’m not paying to upgrade. I’ll watch the series I can binge instead. TIA

The comments 💀😂

Any other nation in history with as a corrupt an administration, as criminal a President, and as cowed and weak a people, Americans would be the first to call it a dictatorship and a failed state. That's simply a fact. Either remove the regime now or accept what you are.

Obama will always be the better man.

A stark reminder of the nightmare that was the spring of 2020.

God, this makes me so angry. I’ve said it before: The American laissez-faire COVID-19 pandemic response is the greatest political scandal of my lifetime.

The Great Barrington Declaration is one of the most wrongheaded, shortsighted, cruel, callous, and villainous arguments ever made. Literally ever. Representing the interests of big business, its authors ought to be remembered in infamy. So too should their allies.

The Covid-19 pandemic’s early death toll was much higher than the official US count, according to a new study that spotlights dramatic disparities in the uncounted deaths. https://cnn.it/3NtbZYM
