Current US leadership frittering away any soft power we have. Stupid, pointless, and cruel.

I do feel bad for the lady who thought Trump would make IVF free and then got fired from her public sector job, but since political correctness is now dead, I'm also allowed to say I think she's dumb as bricks.

"Saving money" by destroying necessary social supports and protections only creates more problems and costs much more money long-term.

Polite request to the people telling others not to use grocery delivery apps or Amazon : please start wearing masks when you go out. Some of us could get really sick and die.

What these nihilistic vandals are doing to dismantle science & medicine—generations of expertise & public service & life improving benefits—is cultural revolution level national self harm. No foreign foe could inflict such brutal damage & senseless suffering on US so fast & effectively & unresisted.

It’s very interesting how media outlets like 404 and Wired who do tech and not DC cocktail party circuit slop have covered the Musk angle best because their guiding light isn’t getting a ticket to next weeks book release party in Georgetown

RFK Jr is officially HHS secretary. What do we do now? Thoughts with @kkjetelina.bsky.social on what may be coming and how we should respond: yourlocalepidemiologist.substack.com/p/rfk-jr-is-...

True story: when my older boys were little, they both got whooping cough even though they were vaccinated. It was bad. We asked the pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. They would’ve died, he said. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE UP TO DATE ON YOUR VACCINATIONS NOW.

Something you can do to stand against RFK jr’s attempt to make us all sicker is wear a mask when you share air with others. Resist mask bans. People who cannot afford to get sick have a right to exist in public. Masking will protect your health from him too.

RFK, Jr. is not a "vaccine sceptic." He is a vaccine denier. He is anti-vaccine. Do not capitulate to their newspeak.

This is the correct response to all popular music, beginning the day you turn forty. I too hope the young people had, and will continue to have fun.

To all those saying "shouldn't we root out government inefficiency? What's wrong with DOGE?" a quick background on Constitutional law and why the WAY it is being violated exposes the true motives of the criminals:

Pandemics do not begin with official announcements. They start with quiet deletions, missing reports, and assurances that there is "no cause for concern." Pay attention.

Get your Covid booster if you haven't already. Lots of respiratory illnesses are circulating around the country (Covid, flu, RSV, and whooping cough), so mask up as well! 😷

If we survive the next few years, we should probably have a larger cultural reckoning about how the cult of STEM above all else convinced people who should know better that tech and private equity guys are not just the best at building apps and managing money, but at every field of human endeavor.

signs you’re being time grifted - outrage take + screenshot to news story + no link - outrage take + photograph that appears to conveniently capture some sort of “can you believe this?!” point + no attribution - outrage take + “why is no one talking about this” + link to news story

Would love to understand why every Democrat is not out there every second of the day explaining in plain English that Donald Trump has declared war on cancer patients.

So one time I did have an outdoor reservation cause our dog was with us, the forecast changed and the human restaurant staff called to let me know they'd be moving us to the terrace and dog was still welcome. Any establishment with a shred of business sense would accommodate or reschedule without AI

My crankiest belief is that we are now being sold on solutions to problems which only exist because we've let others convince us they exist. That is what "innovation" seems to be in 2025. There's a level of introspection that's just not happening these days re: what actually needs to bother us.

Beat Metaphor ReFantazio this weekend! Characters were very charming and I had a lot of fun with it. Some dungeons were slogs, but there was some fresh ideas and QOL improvements compared to the Persona series. Also loved the final story message ⚔️💙💛🧚‍♀️
