Romulus does not want this

the CIA weaponized vaccines and public health outreach in Pakistan to get bin Laden and added years to achieving polio eradication as a result, I think of for no particular reason

Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading. Now we’ve got mumps rolling up. Expect more. This is just the beginning of RFK Jr.’s successful infectious disease reintroduction plan.

I had an extremely cheap dvd player and a cheap dvd copy of 2001: A Space Odyssey and their powers combined to play that movie continuously which I passively allowed for longer than I care to describe probably totally fine, certainly no long-term changes to my brain chemistry or structures

What a great photo of Brazilian alpine skier Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, the first South American to ever win a medal at the Winter Olympic Games.

The British men's hockey announcers pronouncing every player's name how they do on their little bio vs American announcers saying Jensen with a hard J

MAHA: Eating a giant steak cooked in butter alongside beef tallow fries and washing it down with coffee spiked with butter Not MAHA: Clean air, clean water, health insurance, vaccines, disease monitoring, scientific research, food assistance, food safety, bike lanes

one of the most frustrating things about there being “no jobs” is that we all walk around and see the work that needs to be done. our cities are crumbling, our people need help, our world is dying. there’s so much work to be done, if only it were good for the balance sheet

would like to vigorously pie this dude announcer on the US-Canada women's curling match who cannot shut up about how these top level athletes are also MOMMIES and being a MOMMY is such a good example for the girls please sir, a little laryngitis is all I ask

Could Bill Murray believe in anything? I wouldn't want to be within fifty yards of anything he believed in. (1981)

Great to see the new House Oversight Democrats’ report on the schemes behind DOGE's creation, the benefits it offered the billionaire class, and the harms it brought to taxpayers, federal workers, and public services. 🧵 oversightdemocrats.house.gov/imo/media/do...

the modern right is pathologically obsessed with gender in a way that has absolutely no analogue on our side

I've said this before, but it makes me insane that in an age of human civilization when the ultra-rich have hoarded over half of all wealth, the go-to visual shorthand for depictions of gluttony is still "fat"

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it. I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.” 1/

The year is 2045. Nurse is the only job left. It has been hastily retconned to a male coded job and every nurse now wears tactical combat gear and has a gun.

Every aspect of American life should be like going to the airport, a thing everyone loves when it's strictly voluntary and will love even harder when it's not!

Every Michigander I talked to about this brought up the Morouns, every single one, independently across several conversations

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

It would be great if the top two stories about the executive branch were not a huge multinational child rape coverup and the establishment of a gulag of concentration camps

i mean it’s both. there’s a real burden on voters to deliver the opposition to power but then there’s a burden on the opposition to use that power appropriately for the task at hand. we are where we are in part because voters delivered them to power in 2020 and they catastrophically flubbed it.

I think collectively, we at least partially wanted the child at the Super Bowl to be Liam because the little boy on stage looked happy and healthy and our hearts want so badly to think these children can somehow magically recover from the evils our government is doing.

oh, the sadness to know so much about hockey and to have seen The Tragically Hip live and to complain about the Timmie's fuckin up the morning commute in our neighborhood yet my Polish grandparents stand athwart my dreams

No new pictures. Where are you mentally?

Anti-vaccine is fundamentally a luxury belief that falls apart once too many people adopt it a real dilemma for anti-vaxxers who require increasing numbers of supporters to get their exemptions and policy preferences but too many unvaccinated means kids start getting real sick real quick

Kim Stanley Robinson foresaw some kind of a future for private flights in The Ministry for the Future

You're gonna look like an unmade bed in that dress!

post a banger that isn't in English

It bears repeating that Tom Homan is a fucking psycho and Greg Bovino's exile means functionally nothing when it comes to what's happening on the ground in Minnesota.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

most of them have the good sense to not want to be publicly associated with movement conservatives - a little plausible deniability keeps neutrals streaming their songs while alignment with the current administration torpedoes that and makes them as Political

That Ring ad

So uh Ring just up and said they've got a huge centralized private surveillance network they can leverage all at once huh

The Ring "pet search" ad is their Boston Dynamics "dog"

The legacy media would never ever in a million years shut up about any prominent Democrat saying they'd be eating yogurt at the Super Bowl function See: Obama, Dijon mustard

"Prevalence is not a rate"

Never want to hear from another Pelosi, Kennedy, Cuomo, Clinton, Bush, or Trump. All the political dynasties are done. Go home.

Alberto Castañeda Mondragón says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers in St. Paul that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance.

For Americans annoyed that NBC muted the boos against JD Vance: this tech and the choice to use it was I don't want to say pioneered BUT certainly employed previously in Eurovision broadcasts of Israel's performances

Steamed Hams but it's a Kelly comic (Yup that's right I still make "Steamed Hams but..." memes) #simpsons #kelly #steamedhams

Did NBC just not show like half the countries in the parade of nations??? Bullshit
