Making America Healthy with objectively toxic chemicals that persist in the environment for thousands of years

You're complicit in genocide and the attacks on migrants. A devastating message to Labour MPs from @zackpolanski.bsky.social

I reckon those Italian politicians and commentators who are happy with the idea of Ukraine giving up Crimea and Donbas would secretly love some other country to invade and occupy Sicily, Calabria and/or other southern regions just so they don't have to bother with them any more.

The Guardian are reporting a significant increase in Jewish people voting for the Green Party. It's almost like many of us grew up learning a history of persecution & violence. We don't oppose the Genocide in spite of being Jewish but because of it. Never again for everyone.

Academia is a really racist and sexist place. Larry Summers, as the president of Harvard, epitomized that racism and sexism but he is not unique. That's why we needed DEI.

Steve is Cleverley disguising his hangover in the office today. Steve is a real asset to the team.

A horrendous report on ABC radio from a Brisbane doctor doing a second tour in Gaza with Medecins sans Frontières. She says the ceasefire is in name only, the genocide continues and the deprivation of basic food, shelter and resources means even the injured haven’t what the need to heal.

Yes. This is another reason why public funding is what we want - why the government should support science with democratic mechanisms of oversight. Public support means not having to beg toxic billionaires for money.

This PH Awareness Month, members of the PH community share what it means to EmPHasize Your Health. Louise Bouman of the Netherlands shares: “I prioritize my health by listening to my body, saving energy for what truly matters and staying connected with loved ones.” Learn more: buff.ly/N2gIQXs

I’ve now aged out of this but navigating the pestering attention of older men in my field—which varied from manipulative flattery when they were trying to sleep with you to contemptuous retaliation when they realized they couldn’t—was an exhausting and demoralizing tax of my early professional life.

Keep coming back to Summers’ annoyance that this female mentee he’s trying to sleep with “takes her presentation very seriously.” To men like this—to a lot of men—women’s intellectual or professional ambition is an irritating presumption that they condescend to tolerate.

In the end, we no longer operate in a marketplace of ideas. Platforms run a marketplace of feeling, where attention, not evidence, decides what rises. Emotional charge beats truth every time. Politics adapts to that logic, producing hollow performances instead of functional decisions.

Governments and voters are both reacting to algorithm-shaped “public opinion,” not grounded priorities. Immigration feels urgent because platforms amplify fear, pulling parties into hollow performances of toughness. The far right reads that drift as confirmation it’s winning.

"I know what you did last fall"

“Please, please don’t mention the 10,000 litres of fossil fuels I’m transporting, let’s talk instead about how ‘green’ the 100 litres of HVO that fuels this lorry is”.

We’re often asked whether we’re optimistic or pessimistic about technologies. That’s the wrong question. If any of this matters, we need to stop seeing technology like the weather, to be merely forecasted, and instead see it like politics, to be collectively shaped.

Police in Catania seize over 1,500 illegal fireworks discovered by a courier service at their hub. They contained a total of 255kg of explosives. When police detonated just 12 of the "fireworks" in a quarry, the explosion pulverised 300kg of rocks placed over them and left a crater 5 metres wide.

Every time I hear a politician say that an issue is “dividing” this country they always then come down on the side of the right wing view of it. Just once I’d love to hear someone say “this issue is divisive, which is why I’m making the argument that kindness and compassion is important”

Something centre-right journalists absolutely love is the "enrages environmentalists" framing It presents climate / enviro folks as irrational, salivating and constantly infuriated idiots, whereas 'centrist' pro-fossil politicians are Very Serious, level-headed Adults In The Room archive.ph/0PsH4

“Adrenal fatigue” was invented by the wellness industry. It’s a fake diagnosis. It’s pseudoscience. If you’ve been given a diagnosis of “adrenal fatigue,” your symptoms are real, but that diagnosis is not. sciencebasedmedicine.org/adrenal-fati...

Sarebbe molto bello parlarne liberamente, fuori dai social. Con numeri alla mano e crudo pragmatismo. Invece no, nei salottini social benpensanti si parla dei propri ombelichi pelosi.

Have to say I find the proposals to take away the route to permanent settlement of refugees both shocking and repulsive. It's code for 'whatever you do and contribute you can never become one of us so we won't allow you to try.' Racism, pure and simple.

I came to this country as a child refugee. No English, no certainty, no idea what my life could become. Britain gave me refuge. Not on a timer, not with conditions attached, but with a chance to grow roots. A thread 🧵 1/8 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Whatever it is you want, Steve. The answer is no.
