The label of a drug is close to a sacrosanct document. It represents the trust between the government and the user of the drug that the drug is safe and effective and that all risks and benefits are accurately outlined. Changing it to suit a political agenda is imo an earthshaking matter

The government knowingly putting false information in the label of a drug is crossing a Rubicon that should not be taken lightly

This time, with reparations!

By the way: "Vote blue no matter who" is fake, and always has been. Literally not even the Democratic Party actually believes it. All the slogan meant was "vote for right wingers and don't complain about it". Remember this moment:

Dang, maybe they shouldn’t have rushed these discs, sounds like they needed more time in the oven

Keep canceling, it'll be really funny

Can't believe it's possible, but I'm actually going to be rooting for a drug company in a lawsuit.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

I mean, he’s right. A 2% tax on billionaires is laughable and hugely harmful to the economy. It should be 100%.

"Fifty-three percent of Democratic voters said they preferred politicians described as similar to Sanders, Ocasio-Cortez and Mamdani, while 33 percent favored those similar to Schumer, Jeffries and Pelosi. Fourteen percent didn’t choose."

If Dems want to pivot to "kitchen table issue" in their messaging this is the one! Say he has to come to congress for a vote on the tariffs or you don't vote for government funding bill.

jimmy kimmel (opening monologue on tuesday): so charlie kirk is still dead,

I'm crying... they're mad about "Antifa" Free Companies in FFXIV now.

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity. "To be clear, men wouldn’t be posing as ICE agents and assaulting women if ICE didn’t exist."

If your novel is set in the recent, pre-cellphone past and your plot depends on a dilemma that would now be resolved with a simple phone call, make sure the reader understands that by having a character say, "Too bad cellphones don't exist yet."

It’s that time of year.

A day in Toho heaven

Visiting one of the great props of all times!! The original… Can you name it?

If someone tells you they're all for "immigrants who come to this country the right way and follow the rules," show them this story. It's just one of countless examples of ICE/CBP going after folks who are here legally, doing things "the right way."

This is unironically a lot worse than Jimmy Kimmel but you won't see 1/1000 of the outrage

Holy shit

During Trump Term 1, per ABC News, Trump raised the prospect of shooting migrants with advisors on multiple occasions. abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics...

"Don't speak ill of the dead" being made into an unbreakable commandment by a culture that has done so much to shame away and erase any connection to ancestors in the cultures it oppresses is absolutely infuriating.

what fucks me up about the Bluesky TOS update is fucking every adult creator i know wants MORE labels and filter options. we WANT more granular control over the labels and spoilers we can put on our work so people who want to curate their timeline to avoid us CAN DO SO

One of the most pernicious cissexual myths is that **trans ppl** are obsessed w gender when the average cis woman would never think of wearing a bow tie and the average cis man gets angry if he has to drink out of a coffee cup w too many dainty flowers glazed on it.

If they were all documented, it's hard to imagine how this isn't another example of ICE using workplace as a proxy for determining who to bully and harass. I'm just glad Brett Kavanaugh thinks this is all above board.

Abolishing ICE is just minimal human decency.

FDR won 42 states in 1932, it wasn't by pandering to Hoover voters. Then Republicans called him a socialist for 4 years. Then he ran for reelection and won 46 states

this exists it is called thinking

This is it, essentially. The core of it. The goal of ICE detention in the mass deportation system is to make people give up their case without fighting; to have an officer say “if you want to see a judge and plead your case, you’re going to be jailed for months and months, so why not give up now?”

So many people signed onto this out of a misguided belief people were being brainwashed into caring about Palestinians.

This is why everything sucks. It's not trans people. It's not immigrants. You are being robbed blind before your eyes and those same people also own all the tech and media networks to tell you that the cause is not them

if you are in a professional or personal situation where you cannot fully divest yourself from something being rightly boycotted, you've got an easy out: shut the fuck up. no one asked. you're free. i'm not your priest.

lmao a livestream wood pigeon nest camera i was watching on youtube got taken down, and apparently this was the reason: "Content that shows minors under the age of 13 live streaming without being visibly accompanied by an adult isn’t allowed on YouTube"

Thank you for your feedback, we ignored it.

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

Remember when ARPA had millions of dollars of COVID relief funds available and rather than use them on ventilation, additional vaccine research, or training/hiring more medical professionals, Biden told states to use them all to hire more cops?

Anyone who signs this pledge is not a journalist.

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion. Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

I'm REALLY personally not into anything involving fictional SA, hypnosis and the like. But hey, do you know what I do when I see something I don't like? I mind my business and I keep scrolling. Who's getting harmed? If it's fictional, the fucking author CHOSE to have the not-real scenario play out

regardless of your personal feelings on such art, this is bullshit. cracking down on art doesn't stop abuse, and this can be weaponized against adult and queer artists. this is absolutely pathetic. not ONE major platform willing to go to bat for creative freedom that isn't also full of nazis

When were people going to tell me Shadows of Doubt added modifiers that let you play as a literal rat or have a lethal snail slowly chase you down or deal with gambling debt as you solve crimes?!
