Abruptly halting TB treatment (which takes 6+ months) not only causes death and suffering from the disease, but is the best way to generate new drug resistant strains of the disease, excellent job

Not the most important thing but Elon always looks like he'd be really damp. Like, you know if you went to shake his hand, you'd be like "Oh, did you just wash your hands?" And he would laugh while you stood there horrified wondering why his hand felt like an uncooked chicken breast.

Vitamin A does not (!) protect against measles and is only beneficial as part of treatment in limited situations. If someone is considering supplementation it's important to know fat-soluble vitamins (like vit A) carry higher toxicity risks and need to be given with care

This is guaranteed to be an exercise in cherry-picked statistics and bad-faith science because all of the other types of study have been done and they didn't find the results that the current HHS head likes.

And while the CDC is planning another vaccines-autism study, they've added this to their page in order to further drive mistrust in vaccination and likely lead to threats of ACIP members.

"The first guest on Gavin Newsom's podcast was Charlie Kirk" is more than enough for me to say "absolutely not" to any suggestion Newsom play any role in the future of the Democratic Party. People like him are the past, the failures, the ones who got us here.

The idea the president alone can levy taxes on a whim and spend it as he pleases without any congressional approval is the kind of thing so beyond the pale it's not unconstitutional, it's anti-constitutional. It is overturning in starkest terms the central rallying cry of the American Revolution.

Ever since @brettmartin.bsky.social told me about the oxtails at Chicken's Kitchen across the river from New Orleans in Gretna I've been trying to get there, but when I finally did last month it was the collard greens that surprised me most, so I tried to replicate them (I think I got close)

Would like to note that the general tone on the skyline this morning has been way doomier and more pessimistic than it has been all week about the possibility of resistance. This is what the Democrats do to morale. This is what the Democrats are good at. Making resistance seem futile.

Rahm Emanuel covered up the murder of a Black teen, and shuttered public clinics and schools. Cuomo covered up COVID nursing home deaths and harassed women. These men heard "now is the time of monsters" and decided to attempt a comeback. They both belong in hell.

New from CDC (at least something is working) on Covid. For the first time, the LP.8.1 variant has taken the lead in the US, accounting for >40% of cases. The good news is current boosters work pretty well for inducing neutralizing antibodies against this variant www.thelancet.com/action/showP...

This post and story are is based on a 2023 paper, but I’m nevertheless going to take it as an example of why Bluesky has become a delightful experience. It brings back the pleasure in knowledge-sharing that distinguished early Twitter.

Every mainstream attempt to grapple with the rise of Tate and other misogynist ideologues have posed them as a product of men’s despair. Few have posited them as an assault on women’s safety and dignity.
