Happy Wet Rat Winter to all who celebrate.

It's 2025, and we're sharing bootleg 60 Minutes segments broadcast in other countries because our own country is being run by fascists and their billionaire-owned state media helpers, just as the Founding Fathers intended, of course.

“People don’t trust the vaccine I told them not to trust!” youtu.be/x3odZxa1-QI

“This vaccine works so well it’s more likely to cause the immune reaction we see with many vaccines. It’s still better than shingles, which really sucks!”

I feel this in my bones every day.

Rest in Power, Alice.

Seattle — please go check that your ballot was counted! The vote difference in the mayoral race is now just 91 votes, so this is sure to go to a recount. info.kingcounty.gov/kcelections/...

It’s official…this is the worst targeted ad I’ve seen on Facebook.

Another reason to get your flu shot: The CDC Fluview map of influenza and ILI (influenza like illness) is normally updated weekly. It has not been changed since September 20. Patient: Help me doctor I'm really sick! Me: Ok Patient: Is flu going around? Me: Fuck if I know 🤷

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor. Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors. These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism. This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function. Every American should reject it.

I’m mainly disappointed because I really wanted to hear national newscasters have to say, “Big Dumper.” #Mariners

most people don't want politics that hurt other people. we just want a long overcoat like david bowie and affordable housing

All mail-in voting is the best. #VotingAfterDark

My 14-year-old self would never have guessed that, in 50 years' time, all the world's music would be available at the click of a button, you'd navigate the globe by carrying a tiny computer around in your pocket, and the US President would post a video of himself shitting over American citizens.

This is hilarious. @glaucomflecken.bsky.social

Props to all the OBs out there. Absolutely badass profession. Sorry these creeps are making your job harder.

it's so funny to see America's health insurance companies be like "look. If there's one thing we love it's denying you care. but we ran the numbers - and we cannot BELIEVE we're saying this - and it's cheaper for us to just pay for the vaccines than deal with you going to the ER."

My oldest received their first hepatitis B vaccine before they were put into my arms, and I wouldn’t have had it any other way.

There is so much to love about The Pitt, but Katherine LaNasa’s perfect Pittsburgh accent was one of the best parts.

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”

Nobody is talking about this, but Casey Means was nominated as surgeon general on and referred to the Senate HELP Committee on June 2. As of July 31, the committee has not advanced her nomination due to missing paperwork. The Surgeon General has to have a medical license, which she does not have.

So I finally get to see Messi play in person? #SeattleSounders

Pour one out for the pediatrician who has lost his child’s sports eligibility form the week before school starts. #PedsSky

Also important this week: A trustworthy guide to childhood vaccine schedules, from actual pediatricians (many of whom saw these diseases before they could be vaccinated against). * pin it & share it * Ps: no, pediatricians are not pharma shills, don’t @ me www.healthychildren.org/English/safe...

I remember the worst day for crime in Washington D.C.'s history and whose fault it was.

I don’t think there’s any question in my mind - that was the best performance in Sounders history. They beat the reigning and extremely dominant champions of CONCACAF by a fucking touchdown dude.

Trisomy 18 is usually fatal within weeks of birth. Some families are getting more time, with surgeries, luck and incredible effort. This is the story of what Noah, and his family, are up against. https://nyti.ms/44Z7TgU

HAHAHAHAHAHA *inhales* HAHAHAHAHAHA

Kennedy think schizophrenia can be cured with dietary changes…and wants to cut SNAP benefits.

a thin white woman in head to toe lululemon screaming at these thugs makes me think ICE has jumped the shark

Again..he’s trying to gut the ACA through the back door. If there is no USPSTF to give A or B recommendations, then will insurance still have to cover vital preventive services?

So the goal of MAHA is to make people think eating fast food is healthy.

My kids used to see Dr. Merchant, and loved her!

Fentanyl cannot get into your system unless you ingest it. “Fentanyl exposure” is not a thing. If the police don’t know basic chemistry or physics then they probably should stop cosplaying as experts on toxicology

Kamala Harris campaigned on making home care part of Medicare, which would’ve greatly eased the issue of caring for our parents. But Trump won so we not only didn’t get that, we’re getting devastation of nursing homes as well. This is going to ruin a lot of families.

RFK Jr is now trying to gut the ACA through the back door. Reshaping the USPSTF could result in many losing coverage for evidence based preventive care.

Nothing is more American right now on the 4th of July than my kids watching illegal fireworks at our local park, only to have the display disrupted by a shooting. (We’re all fine.)

I visited a public health clinic in Ghana in 2005, and asked a physician there wha the refusal rate for vaccines was. He replied, “0%. Why would they deny this opportunity?” I calmly explained that in the US, a nonsignificant number of parent declined vaccines. He just shook his head in disbelief.
