So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Canada to start vaccinating vulnerable people for #BirdFlu. Just remember: This vaccine, Arepanrix H5N1, contains an inactivated #H5N1 grown in fertilized chicken eggs. Right now, we don't have enough eggs to produce this vaccine in large scale in case of a pandemic.

Why would a little boy say, “Shut the fuck up” if he wanted someone to be quiet? Was there someone in his life who maybe repeatedly said that to him? Also, where would he get the idea that Trump isn’t the President? Did someone also say that repeatedly to him?

“Elon got root access” is definitely going to wind up in court filings since that’s not what DOJ has been telling judges. Musk just quote-tweeted this, which seems like an admission they’ve been lying in court.

What can you do? Don’t give up hope. Dictators feed off your hopelessness. Don’t quit. Dictators want you to give up. Punch back. Dictators are bullies, and bullies are cowards. Stay tethered to the truth. Dictators need you to believe their lies. Resist. Stand with others.

I’ve always liked this one. It’s got a great, creepy gothic vibe, a cool creature design, and a brilliant supporting cast that includes the Progenitor of the Cumberbatch, Wanda Ventham! youtu.be/wgbV3xiNYpM?...

I’m going to keep hitting this until they figure it out, because they are it…the Democrats are THE ONLY political opposition. They had three months to prepare for these acts. And they seem surprised and flat footed.

Which of course begets the Dipshit-Kruger Effect, where people with somehow less expertise or ability assume that someone who displays the Dunning-Kruger Effect loudly enough is automatically fair and correct in all matters, contrary quantifiable facts, evidence, or data be damned.

A cautionary tale about overdependence on technology, and the crises caused when it inevitably breaks down gives way to an alien invasion story involving the Ice Warriors. It suffers from the usual bloat of six-parters, but it manages to maintain some solid tension. youtu.be/-LWHh1D_5fY?...

Crimes are being committed. The hostile takeover of main branches of government by Musk and his tech boy minions is a junta. Our elected officials need to act now and arrest all involved.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.
