GIFTED, UNLOCKED ARTICLE: www.wsj.com/business/air... with expert input from @joeallenjoe.bsky.social This is disturbing. I'm considering adding a respirator with activated carbon to my travel kit.

1+ million people (US) reported rationing their insulin in the past year due to cost, farmers are going bankrupt, in August 2025 total foreclosure filings were up 18.1% compared to August 2024… But Trump and his family are making billions. *heavy sigh* The grift machine is working OT.

There’s a historic indoor clean air high level event at the UN today. @drbronking.bsky.social is of course leading by example wearing a high quality mask while chairing the meeting 👏👏👏

#Seaweed farms are a dual solution for climate change & sustainable energy. - don't require freshwater, fertilizer, or arable land to grow, making it one of the most eco-friendly resources - naturally absorbs massive amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis helping 1/...

Can’t even leave for work in peace. It’s disheartening to witness the increasing harassment and intimidation faced by individuals in the minority community across Washington, D.C.

Minnesota assassination suspect Vance Boelter seems to be associated with the authoritarian, charismatic Christian right. 2 months ago, The Christ for The Nations Institute (CFNI) honored Cindy Jacobs, a top apostle and prophet in the theocratic New Apostolic Reformation movement.

🚨🚨RFK Jr. names some vaccine critics to key CDC committee after ousting entire panel www.cnbc.com/2025/06/11/r...

New moment of “WTF”: -pt with rare infection (so rare will leave unnamed, as could reveal identity) -nl times: reach out to CDC for testing -now: “they confirmed they are not currently accepting specimens for serology…they suggested we could reach out to Canada National Reference Center” 😳😳😳

ondering how this year’s measles outbreaks compare to previous years? This chart shows that 2025 (dark purple) is already about 4x higher than this time last year (light purple), which was itself a sharp increase over 2023. The trend is alarming. Prevention—including vaccination—is critical.

CSPAN cut the feed after the press conference but the members of Congress and Senators have entered the main lobby where USAID HQ is located. The door is being blocked by law enforcement. Photo provided to me:

People have gathered outside USAID HQ for press event with Democratic Congressmen Beyer, Raskin, Connolly and Olzewski and Senator Van Hollen where they're addressing the building's mysterious shutdown today in the midst of the Trump admin dismantling the agency. (Photos shared with me)

This should be 25th amendment level conduct. The president ordered water to be released from a random dam in California nowhere near the wildfires and then claimed it would help. That’s literally Mad King behavior.

BREAKING NEWS: It is much worse than previously reported: Not only were at least 30 federal attorneys who worked on January 6 cases fired, but all six of the FBI's most senior executives and multiple heads of field offices have been escorted out. This is terrifying.

FBI Director nominee Kash Patel promised no retribution. The next day, we have this grotesque purge at the FBI. Bondi said she would examine pardons on a case by case basis. Then Trump gave 1550 pardons overnight. Their confirmation commitments mean nothing.

BREAKING: The Department of Veterans Affairs has CANCELLED SUICIDE PREVENTION TRAINING because it includes considerations for the LGBTQ+ community. Veterans suicide.

Veterans EARNED their healthcare. Republicans are ripping it away—slashing funding, blocking benefits, and forcing Veterans into a system that will fail them. We won’t stand by while they spit on those who served. Save veterans' healthcare! #SaveVeteransHealthCare

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget INSURRECTIONIST TRUMP!

Exactly.

Travellers at Pearson may have been exposed to measles: health officials | If you were at Pearson Airport last week in Terminal 1, Toronto public health officials say may want to make sure you’ve had your measles vaccine. www.durhamradionews.com/archives/193...

“Despite these glaring patterns, misogyny remains unrecognised as form of extremism. Misogyny is not and cannot remain a side note to these acts. It is central to understanding and stopping these tragedies. We must call it what it is: a form of terror.”

Trump has pardoned Lauren Handy, an anti-abortion activist who was arrested in 2022 after police found five fetuses in her home. Handy claimed she and a colleague seized 115 fetuses from a medical waste collector for ‘proper burial and a funeral.

Many, many people are reaching out with questions about the impact of the LA fires on their homes and environment. There are some things we can say based on the research that was done after the Marshall Fire in Colorado. Here is a short thread to summarize what was learned. @ciresnews.bsky.social

I built my entire future on the hope of securing NIH funding. Now, countless junior faculty like me are watching our academic dreams slip away. We’re not just losing careers—we’re losing the research breakthroughs we could have delivered. Here’s hoping this NIH crisis ends soon. #medsky #NIH

None of these guys cared about free speech and open academic debate. It was all an act, a marketing technique. That worked very well!

I woke up with a great sense of foreboding today. The politician changes and approach of #H5N1 weigh on my mind. Let’s hope some wisdom comes out of both. Virtue is its own reward.
