The 4 or 6 forevah!

Talarico: if you read the new testament, Jesus doesn't spend most of his time preaching or teaching or even praying. He spends most of his time healing the sick. Right now, we have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care

If you live in the western United States, the first rain of the season is cause for celebration. #wildfire

Since they’ve cut food inspections at the FDA, the burden is now more on consumers to protect ourselves from contaminated food: www.consumerreports.org/health/food-...

A good day to consider chipping in for public radio. #npr www.npr.org

One person having the power to upend entire industries and economic sectors on a whim every day that puts companies out of business and workers out of jobs with no legislative input is an autocracy, regardless of whether that person initially acquired power through an election.

Banner day in GG Park😌

mRNA, show us the way. #mrna

Words fail me.

Hot hot hot at 8a. Earthquake weather. 😶

I love this perspective piece. It underscores how difficult it is to direct people addicted to fentanyl away from the drug😔 Here’s what San Francisco’s fentanyl crisis has taught me about being a doctor www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...

Wow. We should do a lot more consumer boycotting.

So this woman endangered all of human existence in her quest to become an influencer and hang out at the Kennedy compound you say? My God. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

If Rupert/Lachlan Murdoch are allowed to buy American Tik Tok like Trump is suggesting, then it’s basically all over for the USA

The @nytimes.com sure devoted A LOT of space to the “goings-on” in AZ today. 😏

📖 Climate advocacy has not failed, climate policy has been sabotaged, explains a new open access book, Climate Obstruction: A Global Assessment from @cssn.org.

Impeach RFK Jr!

The verb “take” for vaccines is a dead giveaway. I “get” vaccinated myself. #vaccinessavelives

Nothing makes me bawl like Ordinary People. Think I’ll cue it up now. 😢 #riprobertredford

The FDA is about to push some bad science to suggest that mRNA vaccines were the cause of death for 25 children. This claim is based on the VAERS reporting system. Read this to understand why this is garbage data and was not backed up by autopsy. 🤨 👇🏼 #mrna #vaccines

Same.

Worker safety at the Hyundai plant was abysmal, but instead of sending OSHA, the government sent ICE. Now, no one will report safety issues at factories. 😡

This anti-vax fad is a killer.😔 #flu #vaccines @cidrap.bsky.social

No irony, this guy is the gift that keeps on giving. 😄😄😄 #mamdani

He’s the King of the Contract (ion).

Fire RFK.

The war on vaccines is racing the war on clean energy to claim Extinction Gold.

C’mon California…

Here's something I think a lot of folks don't yet understand, but 16 states' worth of CVSes refusing to give out Covid shots *is* actually preventing people from accessing them. They are the biggest pharmacy chain in the country and they own Aetna insurance, often forcing those clients to use CVS.

😳

I’m taking all that Type A doctor energy and putting it in knitting. This is from Sara Elizabeth Kellner’s Victorian Housecats to Knit😍 #knitsky

This guy🫶🏼

do people not talk about the rise of fascism at kitchen tables

Woot! Woot! We made the BIG LEAGUES! Thanks @maddow.msnbc.com for amplifying #SaveHHS letter. NPHC & FBF stand united w/ #CDC, NIH, & other HHS agencies in formal dissent of HHS Sec RFK Jr. & his political rhetoric that led to Aug 8 attack on CDC & his response. Sign & share: savehhs.org

“It would be unthinkable for urban firefighters… to enter a burning building without wearing a mask. But across the country, tens of thousands of people who fight wildfires spend weeks working in toxic smoke and ash wearing only a cloth bandanna, or nothing at all.”

Been wondering about this. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Ok. I’m not his biggest fan, but I Gave Newsom a little donation for this action.

HHS vaccine advisor Robert Malone posted an invitation to violence on social media before a shooter took him up on it. Malone must go.

The Dahlia Dell in Golden Gate Park, maintained by an expert group of obsessive volunteers, is one of San Francisco’s many treasures. Peak bloom on now. #dahlia #flowers #gardening #goldengatepark #sanfrancisco

Exclusive: CDC Director Susan Monarez met with its vaccine-focused center to talk about yesterday’s shooting. I listened to a recording. Scientists and officials are shaken & pointing fingers at RFK Jr. Many said his vilification and misinfo turned them into targets. www.msnbc.com/opinion/anal...

The newspapers are not making a big deal of this today. This is a big deal. Someone shot into a Federal building repeatedly, fueled by misinformation and politics. It should be front page news across the country.

The thing about raising kids in San Francisco, aside from the cost, is the exposure they get to exceptional creativity, and adults willing to teach it. 🫶🏼 www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

mRNA vaccines are one of the most important tools we have for preventing future catastrophic pandemics because we can update them more quickly than any other vaccine technology in response to new emerging viruses & variants. RFK Jr cancelling millions in mRNA research makes the world far less safe.

The 8 billion tons of plastic waste on Earth pose a grave and growing danger to human health, according to a new report. Ahead of international negotiations on a plastics treaty, authors warn that countries urgently need to cut production.

I remember when Jim Henson died and Life Magazine did a cover with all the Muppets looking sad and I burst out sobbing in the check-out line at the grocery store when I saw it. They should do that again with the Sesame Street gang for PBS.

There’s so much blood in the water right now. Where are the sharks??
